- Alliterative Name: Barbara Beard.
- All There in the Manual: Their names and professions were revealed by none other than
Dav Pilkey. - Farm Girl: Barbara admits to having grown up on a farm when she was a girl. According to her husband, it's a topic that's frequently brought up.
- Kick the Dog: In Book 12, after being turned into mindless, obedient children by Mr. Meaner, Moses and Barbara openly state how they approve of their son and friend's complete personality change compared to how they normally behave. What they didn't know was that an alternate version of George and Harold were in the other room and heard all of it.
- Meaningful Name:
- Barbara shares the same first name as Dav Pilkey's own mother, who had always encouraged his writing and artwork from childhood.

Grace Hutchins
Voiced by: Mindy Sterling
Harold's mom who works as a real estate agent and has an interest in drawing just like her son.
- All There in the Manual: Just like with the Beards, Dav Pilkey revealed her name and profession on social media.
- The Ditz: She often gets carried away with things that she doesn't notice important details. The biggest example is how she didn't notice George and Harold's miserable faces compared to Krupp's noticeably wicked grin alongside them. It's especially jarring since she was painting those expressions for her portrait.
- Glamorous Single Mother: It's established in Book 9 that Harold's father left them when he was in kindergarten but Grace has been able to adjust quite nicely without him.
- Kick the Dog: In Book 12, after being turned into mindless, obedient children by Mr. Meaner, Grace openly states how she enjoys her son and friend's complete personality change compared to how they normally behave. What she didn't know was that an alternate version of Harold alongside George was in the other room and heard all of it.
- Like Mother Like Son: Just like her son, Grace is also a talented artist who is capable of creating portraits in only seconds.
- Ship Tease: With Mr. Meaner of all people in the Halloween Special.

- Verbal Tic: Similar to Dressy, she has a habit of repeating the last few words of a sentence, only she doesn't sing them.
Heidi Hutchins
Harold's little sister.
- Adapted Out: This appears to be the case in the animated series, as she wasn't seen or mentioned once.
- Alliterative Name: Heidi Hutchins.
- Canon Immigrant: Downplayed. She was first mentioned in the book series, however her name was first introduced in the spinoff Super Diaper Baby. This name didn't appear in the series proper until book 8, which was published four years afterward.
- Hereditary Hairstyle: Subverted. Her curly hairstyle is the same as her mom's, but the Full-Color version of the books shows that her hair is strawberry blonde as opposed to her mom and brother's blonde.
- Small Role, Big Impact: She appears only twice in the entire book series, and doesn't have a single line of dialogue. But it's Harold switching Krupp's incriminating video of him and George pranking the school football game, with one of her "Boomer the Purple Dragon Sing-A-Long" videos in the first book, that results in Jerome Horwitz Elementary’s football team, the Knuckleheads, changing their name to the Purple Dragon Sing-A-Long Friends.

- When Elders Attack: Thankfully they're on our side!

Civilians of Piqua
Little Boy and his Mom
They were doing this before Candace and Linda made it cool.
A little boy and his mom who often appear as minor characters in the books. Their main shtick is how the boy would tell his mom about the wild events happening in the plotline while his mom would brush it off as his wild imagination.
- Adapted Out: They're one of the few Running Gags of the book series who were never brought over to the movie or the show.
- All There in the Manual: According to an old newsletter on the Scholastic website
, their names are Robby and Ethel Hoskins. - The Bus Came Back: They initially stopped appearing after the first five books, when the story underwent Cerebus Syndrome and became more serialized. It isn't until The Stinger of Book 9 that they reappear, with the boy explaining to Tippy the reason for the Bad Future; his mom still not believing him.
- Cassandra Truth: In their early appearances, the mom simply brushes off her son's statements as pure nonsense. Then, the roles are switched when the boy won't believe the mom when she starts seeing things.

Mr. Gaylord Sneedly
Voiced by: Jorge Diaz
Melvin's father, and a professor who apparently works for the government alongside his wife.
- Adaptation Dye-Job: In the "Full Color" versions of the books, his hair is dirty blond. In the animated series, it's the same shade of orange as his wife and son's.
- Adapted Out / Ambiguously Absent Parent: Despite appearing with his wife in Books 6 and 7, he hasn't been seen or mentioned once in the animated series yet. Eventually averted in season 3, where he makes an appearance alongside his wife.
- Embarrassing First Name: His name is Gaylord. You can't really get more embarrassing than that.
- Glad I Thought of It: In Book 6, After Melvin's defeat as the Bionic Booger Boy, Mr. Sneedly mentions that it'll take a few months to create a machine to reverse the effects of the Combine-O-Tron 2000, the machine that turned Melvin into the Bionic Booger Boy in the first place. When George suggests switching around the Combine-O-Tron 2000's batteries, theorizing that it'll reverse the effects, he at first dismisses this idea as childish but decides to do it anyway to prove them wrong. When this actually does reverse the effects, he exclaims, "Well, what do you know? My idea worked!" George and Harold simply roll their eyes in annoyance.
- Like Father, Like Son: It’s obvious where Melvin gets his looks and arrogant attitude from.
- Parents as People: While his and his wife's work leave them far too busy to spend time with their son, they still do care about him.
- Redheads Are Uncool: In the animated series. His hair is just as red as his wife and son's, and he's just as nerdy.
- Skewed Priorities: In his animated debut, he's more interested in his son building a teleporter rather than hearing about anything else going on in his life.
Mrs. Cindy Sneedly
Voiced by: Mindy Sterling
Melvin's mother, who works alongside her husband in the books and is Melvin's main caregiver in the animated series.
- Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: She shows this trait now and then. Her biggest example is her openly declaring herself to be her son's best friend.
- Adaptational Personality Change: In the manga series, Cindy was a serious, dedicated scientist who focused more on her science projects over her son (but she at least cared about him). In the cartoon, she has a more playful personality and is dedicated to tending to her son's needs no matter how much she spoils him.
- Doting Parent: Despite how much of a brat her son can be, she clearly thinks the world of him.
- Hands-Off Parenting: In the animated series, she pretty much lets Melvin do whatever he wants, be it inventing or taking over his school with his future self.
- Parents as People: In the books, her work with her husband leaves them both far too busy to spend time with Melvin, but they still do care about him.
- Pushover Parents: In the animated series. The poor woman practically lets Melvin walk all over her.
- Redheads Are Uncool: Melvin most likely got his red hair from her, and she's clearly as nerdy as her son.
- Unnamed Parent: She's only ever referred to as "Mommy" or "Mother" by Melvin, and "Mrs. Sneedly" or "Melvin's Mom" by everyone else in the books and animated series. It's only thanks to Dav Pilkey that we know her first name; Cindy.
- Wacky Parent, Serious Child: Only in the animated series. She's rather silly compared to Melvin, who takes more after his father in terms of personality.
- Youthful Freckles: Only in the books.
Bernice Krupp
The Devil Wears Cowboy Boots
Voiced by: Tudi Roche
Mr. Krupp's mother who runs her own cattle farm. She's one of the reasons why Krupp is the monster he is today.
- Abusive Parents: One of the worst cases imaginable. She forbade her son from participating in his 4th-grade talent show even though he wanted to. When little Benny ran off and made a poor performance, she encourages all the attendees to throw fruits and vegetables at him, all of which she provided. She even took pictures of the spectacle and has them framed in her living room. Not to mention that she refers to him as a "major disappointment". In Season 3, Mr. Krupp even goes on to say that she never loved him, she just wanted him to do chores.
- Adaptation Name Change: On Instagram, Dav Pilkey claimed that her name was Grace. Her name was changed to Bernice in her debut, most likely to avoid confusing her with Grace Hutchins and Grace Wain.

- The Ageless: Her appearance from when she ruined her son's life is the same 30 years later.

- Jerkass: This goes without saying.
- Never My Fault: She doesn't once own up to the fact that it was her lousy parenting that made Krupp the way he is.
- Noodle Incident: She has an ongoing rivalry with some mischievous cows that are somehow smart enough to open her front door multiple times.
- Strong Family Resemblance: She looks exactly like her son only with a full head of hair.

- Afro Asskicker: She doesn't engage in actual combat, but she manages to put the Melvins in their place from going too far in how they run the school.
- Beyond the Impossible: Not only does she manage to become president of the entire planet, but she also manages to achieve world peace in only 2 years into her presidency.
- Big Good: Her first appearance sets her up like this. She's the only person that has power over Melvinborg and can stop him from harming George and Harold in any way possible. The Season 2 finale expands on this with the reveal that she is actually the President of Earth from the future and manages to achieve world peace 2 years into her presidency.

- Black Boss Lady: She's the new superintendent of the Piqua School District. She's also the future president of Earth.
- The Cameo: She appears in a flashback during the Epic Choice-O-Rama special.
- Good Counterpart: To Melvinborg.

- Self Made Woman: Considering how Erica took her academic career seriously while also being a genuinely good person, it all paid off with the reveal of her incredibly successful future.

Voiced by: Eric Bauza (Robius)
The sponsors of Robe-I-Con, are a powerful organization that has a hand in managing the affairs of the world governments.

- Dreadlock Rasta: Robius has long, beautiful dreadlocks.
- Gang of Hats: All of them, true to the name, wear robes.

Later on, when the boys create Hack-O-Ween, she's shown to participate in the festivity by offering fried shrimp to the sneak-or-snackers. And in the end, she decides to veto the original order and allows Halloween to be celebrated again.
- Meaningful Name: Her two names are a few vowels away from the words "happy" and "chipper". Both of which reflect her enthusiastic personality.

- Big Good: He becomes this in the season 3 finale as George and Harold beg him to buy their summer camp so that Krupp wouldn't be able to return and ruin next year's summer. Cash was all too willing to buy it for them and does so after being satisfied with their talent show performance.
