Main Family

    Boy 

Boy

Voiced by: Justin Michael
An anxious and sensitive teenage boy. He is the oldest of the group and tries to be their leader, but often finds himself unable to get them to listen to him. He collects bobbleheads.
  • Broken Pedestal: Boy loses his attachment to Miss Molly after finding out how poorly she's treating his siblings plus her misinterpreting him standing up for them and stating that he is no longer a baby as a sign of betrayal.
  • Butt-Monkey: A lot of embarrassing happen to Boy throughout the show, ranging from how most of his siblings treat him to some other type of injury.
  • Classical Anti-Hero: Boy is a sensitive, emotional individual who has an odd interest in bobbleheads, tends to overreact, and is prone to plenty of slapstick, while also having selfish moments and tends to bicker with his siblings. Regardless, Boy is generally devoted to his family, usually opts to do the right thing, and shows remorse for his wrongdoings.
  • Genius Ditz: While he can be a goofball at times, Boy makes amazing cookies.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: Downplayed with Boy. Though the other family members like him, he desperately wants to have friends outside of the family but is usually too shy to make any. Having friends is also a big motivator for him, his sole reason for trying to beat a world record is because he thinks it'll make other people like him more.
  • Kiddie Kid: Despite being a teenager, Boy is very childish, having an unbridled love for bobbleheads, is very sensitive at times, and enjoys having fun with his siblings.
  • Large Ham: Just note how many times Boy overreacts whenever he gets scared or feels very emotional.
  • The Leader: Being the oldest means that Boy usually tries to take charge of the gang to varied results and at times is the one that comes up with ideas that he has the others follow him on.
  • Manchild: Boy acts like a baby when being looked after by Miss Molly, including sucking on a baby bottle and wearing a giant sleepsuit.
  • Momma's Boy: While Miss Molly isn't his real mother, Boy adores Miss Molly and acts like a two-year-old around her.
  • Nice Guy: While not without his own faults and selfish moments, Boy is generally kindhearted and helpful, wanting to help his family the best way that he can.
  • No-Respect Guy: Sometimes, his own siblings (including Dog) will make fun of him or laugh at his expense.
  • Prone to Tears: Boy's overreactive and sensitive nature means that he has a tendency to cry at times.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Boy is the Sensitive Guy to Dog and Mouse's Manly Man. Whereas Dog is very athletic and Mouse being a prideful genius, Boy tends to be very emotional and overreacts a lot.
  • Shy Finger-Twiddling: Boy tends to do this when he's nervous.
  • Super Gullible: Given how emotional and superstitious he is, Boy tends to fall for many things such as the urban tale of Raining Ben in "It's Raining Ben" or when Cheese told him that he would be a weredog in "Who Let The Weredogs Out".
  • Supreme Chef: Numerous episodes show that Boy is a very excellent cook. As shown in "Pen Pals", he is very good at baking cookies, and in "Girl's Greatness", he makes a large cake to help Girl in her misguided attempt to appease Lila.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Sometimes, his own siblings, Girl and Cheese in particular, would use and manipulate Boy into doing what they want without him having any say in it or whatever scheme they involve him in.

    Girl 

Girl

A rebellious and apathetic teenage girl who frequently butts heads with Boy and gets on his nerves. She loves social media and cosplay, and while she doesn't always show it, she does care for her siblings deep down.
  • Anti-Hero: Girl is generally shown to be lazy, mildly apathetic, irresponsible, and has a knack for mistreating her siblings. She's still a decent person in spite of all that.
  • Book Dumb: It's implied in "Scientifically Impossible" that she doesn't do very well in academics, considering she's failing both science and grammar. She couldn't even get the names of animals found in a toddler's science book right.
  • Broken Pedestal: Towards the actress who plays Captain Callisto, the star of her favorite show, in "Monster Butt". Girl formerly idolized her for her loyalty and nobility to her crew but realized what an unpleasant Jerkass she really is when she insulted Boy.
  • Bubblegum Popping: Girl often chews bubblegum and repeatedly blows bubbles with it. In "World Record Records" she tries to beat the world record for the biggest bubblegum bubble.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Girl tends to have quite the sharp tongue towards the others.
  • The Gadfly: She loves to mess with her siblings, especially Boy.
  • Hidden Depths: While she normally acts sullen and aloof, her favorite TV show is a sci-fi series, and she even put together a Cosplay club at school revolving around it.
  • Hypocrite: In "Hampered Hamster", she shows No Sympathy to Boy when Mr. Nibbles destroys one of his bobbleheads but freaks out when it chews multiple holes in one of her cosplay outfits (and throws it in Boy's face after he throws her own words back at her).
  • Irony: In "Cat Walkers", she dedicates herself to helping Dog overcome his inability to say "no" to Boy, yet she herself has an inability to take "no" for an answer (as shown when she ropes Cheese into helping, despite Cheese refusing multiple times).
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She often puts down and plays jokes on her siblings, but when push comes to shove, she always has their backs.
  • The Lancer: Of Boy's five siblings, Girl is the one who often clashes with him, has a total opposite personality to his, and often takes charge of the family as much as he does.
  • Moral Myopia: As shown in "Cat Beard", after Lila Bird mocks her.
    "She's making fun of me just like I make fun of Boy. That is so mean!"
  • Only Sane by Comparison: When compared to her siblings, Girl is rather levelheaded and down-to-earth, yet she has her own set of quirks as well and can be very lazy and irresponsible at times.
  • Phoneaholic Teenager: Very much so. In the intro itself, she is so engrossed in her phone that she fails to notice that she fell through a hole in the floor caused by one of Mouse's inventions.
  • Schemer: When she's not lazing around, she's usually coming up with a scheme to sabotage her siblings out of a sense of self-aggrandizement, or to help them out when she can sense something odd going on behind her back.
  • Terrible Artist: While in the bathroom, Girl paints a horrible picture of herself. When the boys unexpectedly burst in, Dog sees the picture and is so horrified that he faints.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: Despite her name, Girl is the short-haired and somewhat physical Tomboy to Cheese's more fashionable, fame-seeking Girly Girl.
  • Tsundere: A familial example with Girl towards Boy; She often clashes with him, gets annoyed with him sometimes, and makes fun of him at his expense. Deep down, she still loves him and has his back when the going gets tough.

    Dog 

Dog

Voiced by: Justin Anselmi
An excitable but simpleminded German Shepherd/Jack Russell Terrier mix. He has trouble refusing orders and is always happy to do what he is told. He is Boy's best friend and extremely loyal to him,
  • The Big Guy: Among his siblings, Dog often serves as the more physically proficient member of the family, owing to his past in the police academy and experience in karate.
  • Break the Cutie: It doesn't take much to reduce the poor guy to tears.
  • Canine Companion: A dog who is both one of Boy's brothers and his best friend, with the two often hanging out and doing many activities together.
  • Dogs Are Dumb: Downplayed. Dog sometimes does silly things like trying to catch the water jets from a fountain, but he still generally has human-level intelligence, which is more than can be said for Cat.
  • Dogs Hate Squirrels: Dog sees a squirrel and chases it up a tree until he's told to not look down and he sees how high he is. The squirrel then pelts him with walnuts while he clings to a branch.
  • Dogs Love Being Praised: Dog is never happier than when he's being praised by Boy.
  • Extreme Doormat: As shown in "Cat Walkers", he just can't refuse a request from Boy, even when the request involves putting more tasks on top of an already trying workload.
  • Nice Guy: Easily the sweetest and most caring of the main cast and rarely has anything negative to say about anyone.
  • Team Mom: Acts like a male version of the trope at times.

    Cat 

Cat

Voiced by: N/A
An overweight Turkish Van. She is known for her bizarre and inexplicable behavior, and generally seems to be lacking in self-awareness. Unlike the rest of the siblings, she does not speak.
  • Berserk Button:
    • Cat hates having her belly scratched, and will violently attack anyone who does so.
    • Cat, like many other cats, also heavily dislikes physical contact with water and would go on a frenzy when sprayed or poured on her.
  • Blank Stare: This is Cat's default look, though occasionally she'll turn an eye to focus on a specific object.
  • Break the Cutie:
    • In "The Cat Crusader", Cat's attempts to be a superhero ending awry cause her to bawl in tears, especially after noticing her siblings' attempt in making her feel like one being all staged.
    • In "Lights! Camera! Action!", thanks to Cat's siblings preoccupying her with their attempts to get in the movie, Jocko ends up deciding to close down his "Invisible Circus" due to a lack of attendance. This causes Cat to start crying even when it's raining at night, though her siblings eventually realized how lousy they were to Cat and decided to fix things.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Cat lives in her own little world compared to the rest of the characters.
  • Dumb Is Good: Cat may be scatterbrained, but in her own way, isn't necessarily manipulative or mean-spirited like Girl and Cheese.
  • Everyone Has Standards: While Cat is usually scatterbrained, even she can't stand Cheese sometimes.
  • Fish Eyes: Cat has these to make her blank stare even blanker. This seems to be out of choice- she can focus both her eyes on a single target if she's interested in it, she's just usually not.
  • Hairball Humor: One of Cat's standard responses to a question or command is to spit out a hairball.
  • Hidden Depths: "Two Great Kids" show that Cat is very talented at playing a saxophone.
  • The Millstone: Cat's ditzy nature means that sometimes she ends up making her siblings' problems worse than it already is.
  • Moment of Lucidity: She has these on rare occasions, such as in "Cat Beard", when she goes after Lila Bird's pet bird with relentless focus.
  • The Quiet One: Cat hardly ever speaks, and when she does, it's usually just a single word.
    "Meow."
  • Squeaky Eyes: Cat will sometimes blink in response to a question, when she does, her eyes make a sound.

    Mouse 

Mouse

Voiced by: Abe Goldfarb
A toy mouse and the resident genius of the group. He often makes inventions to help the siblings with their problem, and while he takes great pride in his intellect and rationality, he doesn't always live up to his self-image.
  • Animal Wrongs Group: In "Hampered Hamster", he lets their neighbor Charlotte's hamster, Mr. Nibbles, out of his cage (due to thinking he's being "imprisoned"), and actively tries to sabotage the rest of the family's attempts to get him back.
  • Bungling Inventor: Mouse is one when he's not a Gadgeteer Genius. While most of his inventions do work well, others malfunction or even explode.
  • Cordon Bleugh Chef: Twice over has Mouse made dishes that were... less than satisfactory. In "Chili Overload", he makes "scientifically perfect" chili that he tried to feed others, who find it just "ok", with Cheese the only one who enjoys it. His idea for "cheese smoothies" in "The Cool List", on the other hand, proved to be very disgusting to consume, even with Mouse using a similar mindset with the ingredients.
  • Ditzy Genius: While generally intelligent and a talented inventor, sometimes Mouse tends to lack tact and common sense with certain situations.
  • Fatal Flaw: Mouse's desire to make his experiments/inventions perfect or long-lasting sometimes result in creations that have a tendency to endanger himself and his siblings, or, at worst, Take Over the World.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: Mouse builds robots and gadgets which serve various functions.
  • Height Angst: In "Mouse Big as a House", he becomes so disgruntled over being the shortest of the family that he creates a device to make himself taller.
  • Insufferable Genius: He takes immense Pride in his intellect, and is often convinced his ideas are flawless.
  • No-Respect Guy: Sometimes, Mouse gets disrespected by his siblings whether it be them ignoring him, often getting bored during his explanations, or misusing his inventions.
  • The Perfectionist: Mouse has a tendency to try to make his inventions flawless and long-lasting.
  • The Smart Guy: Mouse acts as the family genius and scientist who often makes inventions and explains numerous information.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: His Frankenstein-esque stitches and discolored body parts go without comment.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: He's been known to go to absurd lengths to try and help his family.

    Cheese 

Cheese

Voiced by: Erica Schroeder
An anthropomorphic wheel of Limburger cheese (with a missing wedge) and the youngest of the bunch. She is an overdramatic diva who loves singing, partying, and being the center of attention.
  • Affectionate Nickname: She often calls others "Sugar".
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Cheese is the youngest of the six and her antics can sometimes bother her siblings and other people.
  • Anthropomorphic Food: Cheese is a walking, talking wheel of cheese.
  • Artistic License – Law: Some of Cheese's antics, such as riding a cow in the city, impersonating a manager, and repeatedly being disruptive with her bagpipe playing in public, are technically illegal in real life. Luckily for her, though, she never gets into legal trouble for any of these.
  • Attention Whore: Cheese definitely desires to have plenty of attention aimed at her, not only from her own family, but also everyone else.
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: In "The Cheese Ball", Cheese desired for her siblings to help celebrate her ball, even with their disinterest and protesting. Thanks to the Smiths, the others ended up agreeing to do so, leading to a series of events leaving Cheese humiliated and upset, even after her siblings tried to fix things.
  • Bratty Teenage Daughter: Her personality is built around this.
  • Break the Cutie:
    • In "The Cheese Ball", after all the humiliation she experienced during her party and realizing how much of it went awry, Cheese begins crying and running back inside to her room.
    • In "Family Photo-No", in Boy's attempts to make a new family photo, he makes Cheese reenact having her childhood plush Brie-anna destroyed by Cat again, much to her dismay. As Cheese tearfully watches Brie-anna up in the air, Cat then gleefully scratches it, leaving Cheese sobbing in tears twice.
  • Can't Take Criticism: During her time as Sparkcheeza, after her siblings insult her dreams of being a pop star, Cheese storms back to her room in tears, then devises a scheme which has her fake getting a head injury just so she can get the others to do what she wants.
  • Character Tics: Sometimes, Cheese has a tendency to hold her hands together with a cutesy smile. It's also the very pose she does that's shown in the family group picture in Season 2.
  • Consummate Liar: Cheese has a habit of lying to others to either get what she wants or as a way to satiate her ego. Dog even lampshades how often she lies in "Wedgie".
  • Depending on the Writer:
    • Given how mean she is at times, whether Cheese ends up as a Karma Houdini or not depends on the situation.
    • Cheese's strength varies on the episode. Sometimes, she's shown to have hidden strength, while at other times, she's shown to be very weak.
    • Given that Cheese usually loves to use her phone a lot, a few episodes has her being in predicaments where that's not the case and even get annoyed when at least one of her siblings has a phone-related obsession instead.
  • Didn't Think This Through: At times, Cheese doesn't even think with some of her actions and plans, something that she even lampshades towards the end of "Wedgie".
  • Dirty Coward: Sometimes, when things go south for her, Cheese would either try to abandon her siblings or make any of them shield her.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Sometimes, Cheese can inflict rather petty actions on others when feeling offended. "Family on Ice", for example, has Cheese rubbing herself against Girl, to the latter's ire, for putting a lock on her app and getting her banned from it.
  • Drama Queen: Cheese is very prone to being overdramatic in numerous situations, especially when she's upset.
  • Dreadful Musician: Cheese aims to be very famous, especially in the music field, yet she has been proven to be a very discordant singer and plays bagpipes that have a screeching sound that bothers others and are only enjoyed by squirrels.
  • Evil Laugh: While not the only member of the family to do this, Cheese does this whenever she has a scheme on mind.
  • Foreshadowing: "Hampered Hamster" has Cheese's idea of fixing things with tape going awry twice, with the second time resulting in the house colliding. This ended up being a plot point in "Fix it Yourself", where Cheese's idea of prioritizing cool designs instead of the actual repairing while she and the others fix things for others would be a disaster as many of the fixed things would break again.
  • Frame-Up: "Confession Cat" has Cheese ruining Mom's flowers because they were "prettier" than her and pinned the blame on Dog, even with him stating that he would never do such thing. Dog wasn't pleased in the slightest once Cheese admitted it to him and the others.
  • Glass-Shattering Sound: On a few occasions, Cheese's loud voice breaks plenty of glassware, ranging from a few windows to even her own dome.
  • Green-Eyed Monster:
    • In "Whistle to the Beat", she becomes extremely jealous of Boy's newfound fame.
    • In "Wedgie", she became jealous of how her siblings find "Wedgie" cuter than her, and while she does storm off in anger after Girl points it out, Cheese eventually relents and stopped being envious.
  • Healing Factor: In the event that Cheese ever melts or gets injured, her cheesy nature allows her to reform herself.
  • Help, I'm Stuck!:
    • In "X Marks the Spot", while believing Mouse's ruse and on her phone streaming, Cheese accidentally gets stuck inside a log, leading to a predicament where she, Dog, and Cat end up uncontrollably riding on said log. Cheese does end up getting freed and caught by Girl.
    • At the end of "Gramps' Gauntlet of Greatness", Cheese secretly goes behind her family's back to get the ribbons they threw in the trash can. Due to being unable to reach them, Cheese accidentally falls inside the trash can, where she attempts to call for her family members to get her out.
  • Humiliation Conga:
    • "The Cheese Ball" is a huge one for Cheese. On what was supposed to be her special day, Cat only invites the Smith twins, who proceed to give her a gift that contains their smelliest burps, making Cheese scream and melt. The others' attempts aren't much better for her, as Cheese, in a frog-looking dress Girl made her, uncontrollably flies due to the jetpack and slides to the floor, has "mystery food" spilt on her by Dog, gets a cardboard box on her when she swung it in anger, and ends up with a wooden see-saw instead of a slide, all while the Smiths laugh at her misfortune. Cheese then cries at her Cheese Ball ruined, and while her siblings eventually managed to fix things with a massive slide and humiliate Stevie and Susie, Cheese still ended up on the short end of the stick thanks to Dog accidentally reactivating the jetpack, making her fly all the way to the slide where she goes down screaming to experience the same excruciation.
    • In "Picture Perfect", in an attempt to win the photoshoot contest, Cheese's posing resulted in numerous animals going after her and taking bites out of her. Eventually, Cheese ended up on the verge of winning, albeit due to Dog submitting an embarrassing picture of her to her dismay; and with Dog refusing to take another picture, Cheese sobs at the thought to being a huge laughingstock, with not even a bubble bath on the bathroom sink enough to cheer her up. Luckily for her, Dog eventually deletes the photo at the last moment, albeit at the cost of Charlotte winning instead of Cheese and Dog taking another bad photo of her, prompting Cheese to angrily chase him.
  • Hypocrite:
    • In general, one of the reasons Cheese dislikes the Smith twins is due to them being arrogant, selfish jerks to her and her siblings, yet Cheese is also selfish herself and tends to be mean to others (even her own family) as well. Heck, Cheese even delights at the twins' moments of humiliation on a few occasions.
    • In "Monster Butt", after Dog confessed that he couldn't handle being in the back end of the Lord Blastoboon costume either, Cheese reluctantly volunteers to be in the costume instead, rudely stating that no one else could handle it, only for the stench in the costume to melt Cheese and make her crawl out of it.
    • In "Whistle to the Beat", right after pushing Boy back inside just as he was about to nose whistle in front of the crowd, Cheese chastises him for knowing nothing about fame; yet back in "Sparkcheeza", Cheese refused to listen to any of her siblings when they point out the requirements of being a pop star, which therefore shows that Cheese isn't as knowledgeable about fame either.
    • In "Clickbait and Switch", after Girl tells the others about Lila calling her "basic" being the reason for her obsession, Cheese calls her out on this by stating that "basic" is just a word and a baseless insult, yet in "Color Me Dog", after Dog called her plain, Cheese became insulted and bawled out of the living room.
    • In "X Marks the Spot", after Mouse revealed his ruse to her, Cheese then shouts at him that that was a horrible thing to do, despite the very fact that Cheese is mean herself and has done plenty of things just as bad or worse.
    • In "Pastime Paradise", Cheese calls Boy a "weak link" when shooing him out of their newfound hideout. The entire show makes it clear that Cheese should be the last person to ever say that to Boy, let alone anyone else.
  • I'm Melting!: Sometimes Cheese has a habit of melting whenever she is upset or is exposed to heat or anything overtly stinky.
  • It's All About Me: Cheese tends to put her own desires above everything else and believes that everything revolves around her.
  • Jerkass: At her worst, Cheese acts extremely unpleasant, treats her family like garbage, and would even manipulate them if it suits her interests. She even enjoys insulting others and once admitted that being nice is too much effort for her.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: While Cheese tends to mistreat her siblings and several others horribly, at her best, she really does care about them and is sometimes willing to even apologize for her actions.
  • Karmic Butt-Monkey: At times, Cheese ends up on the short end of the stick, but given how rude and selfish she can be at times towards others, especially her own siblings, she more often than not deserves many of those moments. If anything, Cheese brings a lot of her humiliation upon herself.
  • Kick Them While They're Down: In "The Hosts", after Mrs. Smith forbode Stevie and Susie from going with them on the (supposed) trip, most of the gang began to feel bad for the twins. Cheese, on the other hand, gleefully celebrates at this and doesn't feel bad for them at all. It takes Girl and Mouse's glares at her to make Cheese (unwillingly) frown as well.
  • Kid-Appeal Character: Cheese is not only the youngest of the six, but is also very childish, loves to have fun, and tends to have many cute gestures at times.
  • Large Ham: Cheese exhibits plenty of facial expressions that showcase how emotional she is, sometimes due to how much of a Drama Queen she is.
  • Lazy Bum: Sometimes, Cheese would just lay down on something while her siblings are doing hard work.
  • Narcissist: Cheese has quite the ego painted on her, often fawning over herself when looking at a mirror, having a few books with pictures of her in it, and acting like a diva while treating her siblings like servants.
  • Never My Fault: Very rarely does Cheese ever take responsibility for her actions, often putting the blame on someone else.
  • No Indoor Voice: Cheese is easily the loudest of the six, having a tendency to shout when she's angry and has a high pitch screaming so loud that the others are bothered by the volume.
  • Phoneaholic Teenager: While not necessarily a teenager and behaves more like one, like Girl, Cheese very much uses her phone a lot for selfies, music, and social media. It even gets to the point where she once cried when it broke before Mouse fixed it and in "X Marks the Spot", she posts videos of the gang's treasure hunt.
  • Pink Is Feminine: Cheese wears a pink bow, and many of her other clothes are pink.
  • Prone to Tears: Cheese has a notable habit of being a crybaby, either from things not going her way, being insulted, often acting dramatic, or just from feeling emotional not unlike with Boy.
  • Running Away to Cry: Sometimes, when Cheese sobs, she has a tendency to run away, with "The Cheese Ball", "Color Me Dog", "The Heated Smell of Friendship", and "Picture Perfect" being notable examples.
  • Selfie Fiend: She constantly takes pictures of herself using her phone.
  • Signature Scent: Cheese smells exactly like you'd expect. The other characters use this to work out that she's been writing in Boy's diary.
  • Skewed Priorities: Rather fitting her vain nature, Cheese has a tendency to put things she values over the more important situations.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: Cheese desires to be famous one day and wants others to see that even if she looks down on them.
  • Smug Snake: Sometimes, Cheese's own arrogance and narcissism tend to be her undoing.
  • Spoiled Brat: Cheese owns plenty of clothes and fashionables while also behaving like a spoiled princess and fully expects everything to go her way and revolve around her.
  • Suddenly Shouting: Sometimes, Cheese yells out either mid-sentence or answer "no" to prove her point.
  • Super Gullible: At times, Cheese has a tendency to believe what she sees on the Internet on her phone, regardless of exaggerated it may be.
  • Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Cheese has a pink bow and prominent eyelashes to show that she's a girl.
  • Tiny Tyrannical Girl: While not as tiny as Mouse, Cheese is rather short and can be bossy to her siblings at times despite all of them being older than her.
  • Token Evil Teammate: While not necessarily an outright villain, Cheese is easily the meanest of the six siblings with the amount of times she's rude and how she lets her selfishness and ego get the best of her at the expense of her family.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: Between her and Girl, Cheese is the Girly Girl to her sister's Tomboy, acting very fashionable, desires to be very famous someday, is very narcissistic, and has plenty of cute gestures she often utilizes.
  • Token Minority: The only living food character in a show with humans, animals (both regular and talking), and sometimes robots.
  • Unlimited Wardrobe: Despite not usually needing to wear clothes, Cheese has plenty of outfits the she owns, with her dancer gear and wig being a notable example.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: No one seems to think much of seeing a talking wheel of cheese walking around, something which the show lampshades at times.

    Mom and Dad 

Mom and Dad

The parents of the titular characters. Dad is the father of Boy, Dog, and Mouse; Mom is the mother of Girl, Cat, and Cheese.
  • A Day in the Limelight: They both have major roles in the "Begins!" two-parter, "Family Fun Fight", and "No Boys Allowed".
  • Good Parents: They are very caring parents towards their kids and wants what's best for them.
  • Happily Married: They seem to enjoy being a love couple and parents to six unique children and tend to gush about their love for each other at times.
  • Out of Focus: Despite having their pictures shown in the opening, they don't appear throughout most of Season 1 until "Family on Ice". Ever since then, they made sporadic appearances in Season 2.

  • Big Fun: A very large, strong man who performs many amazing feats and does plenty of fun things with his grandchildren.
  • Cool Old Guy: He's 72 and in addition to his strength, has been through many daring adventures throughout his life and still has the guts even to this day.
  • Did You Think I Can't Feel?: Throughout "Gamertime Go", Boy and Girl get hooked to an addictive mobile game during a fun day with Gramps, much to the ire of the non-human siblings, both citing that Gramps wouldn't notice and has the tough personality to even get upset. They were proven wrong once he found out and confessed to having set the game up on the locations they went, making Boy and Girl feel guilty.
  • Everyone Has Standards: While Gramps is generally easy-going and upbeat, "Road Trip" shows that even he gets bothered by Boy's overreacting.
  • Hot-Blooded: Gramps has quite the vigor and loudness in his personality.
  • Nice Guy: He's a very generous and fun-loving elder that the gang enjoys having around and is usually shown to be forgiving of many of their mistakes.
  • No Indoor Voice: Like Cheese, Gramps can be a very loud person at times, mainly through shouting at the top of his lungs.
  • No Name Given: He's only ever referred to as "Gramps", even by his longtime friend Zeus or the Smith parents. Then again giving this family's naming convention Gramps could very well be his name.
  • Sixth Ranger: Gramps debuts at the start of Season 2 and has been a Recurring Character ever since having moved in with the family via living in his van.

Kids and Teens

    Tucker 

Tucker

Boy's fellow friend who is also a bobblehead collector like him.
  • A Day in the Limelight: Has a more major role in "Tucked In" due to him coming to the gang's house for a sleepover with Boy.
  • Berserk Button: He doesn't like being treated like a baby. Boy doing so caused him to temporarily end their friendship and leave their club.
  • Butt-Monkey: Sometimes, Tucker is on the receiving end of Boy being a lousy friend to him.
  • Gasshole: "Nothing but the Truth" reveals that he farts whenever he feels nervous of something (i.e.: Mr. Bobbly Wobbly in town). His farts are so strong that Dog can smell them from five blocks of their home.
  • Nice Guy: He's a very mellow, well-meaning teen who loves having fun with Boy and his siblings.

    Stevie and Susie Smiths 

Stevie and Susie Smith

Two blonde twin siblings in identical jumpsuits that often conflict with the titular characters.
  • The Ace: They are shown to very talented in many activities, especially competitions.
  • Affably Evil: While "evil" might be a stretch, Stevie and Susie act suave and composed to the gang even when being jerks towards them and have acted friendly with them on a few ocassions.
  • Arch-Enemy: They're the most common adversaries of the gang that they often compete with.
  • Freudian Excuse: Part of the reason that they're competitive jerks stems from having parents who are also overcompetitive and have them strive to be the best.
  • Half-Identical Twins: The Smith twins dress alike and look almost the same, the only difference being that Susie has long hair and pierced ears.
  • Hypocrite: In "Scoot or be Scooted", they chastise the gang of not being a family because they often fight and argue with one another, only to bicker with each other after Cat wins the scooter race towards the end of the episode.
  • Jerkasses: They often act rude to the gang in many of their encounters and occasionally flaunt their rich and superior prowess towards others.
  • Jerkass Has a Point:
    • In "Scoot or be Scooted", they call out on the six not being a proper family because they argue a lot. Eventually, Boy admits they were right on that, so the gang begin cooperating so Cat can help win the race.
    • In "The Cheese Ball", upon Stevie making another mockery of the Cheese Ball, Girl tells the Smiths to show some respect to Cheese on what was her special day. Susie retorts that they didn't show any respect to the party either and call them out on the lack of effort, stating that she and Stevie wouldn't be so lousy to each other. This results in Cheese crying and causing her siblings to feel guilty.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: At the very least, they care about each other, their parents, and grandmother.
