-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChelseaKane
-->'''Species:''' Goldfish

The goldfish who lives across the street from Milo and Oscar. She has a strong desire to become an actress superstar, and often plays the lead in her school plays. When she doesn't act as the voice of reason, she can be a control freak.


* AmbiguouslyJewish: Her last name, "Goldfishberg", is a pun on the surname "Goldberg", which is a stereotypical Jewish name.
* BirthdayEpisode: "Bea's Surprise Party".
* DramaQueen: Justified as she's the star pupil of the school's drama department.
** This is also her main flaw, she can get a little to passionate about even the smallest role.
* {{Determinator}}: When she sets her mind to something, Bea just won't stop.
* DudeMagnet: In "Doris Flores Gorgeous", she goes on several dates and has gotten the attention of Steve Jackson, the most attractive guy in school. Oscar has also had a huge crush on her for years, along with Randy Pincherson, [[AbhorrentAdmirer to her chagrin]]

* GamerChick: She'll occasionally join Oscar and Milo in playing video games.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Despite "Sleepover Party" showcasing her as a stereotypical teenage girl, she still has some masculine interests like football and [[GamerChick playing video games with Milo and Oscar]].
* GreenEyedRedhead: She has red hair and, as shown in "Oscar is a Playa", she has green eyes.
* InformedDeformity: She initially thinks her yearbook photo is terrible, citing things like her eyes being too far apart and that she has "fish lips", when in reality her photo [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fishhooks/images/e/ef/Bea_looking_at_her_picture.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110113034515 looks perfectly fine]] and is one of the better looking ones [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fishhooks/images/f/f6/Yearbook.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110113033155 out of her class]].
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sure, Bea is selfish, desperate to reach her dreams, and suffers from SmallNameBigEgo, but at the end of the day, she actually cares more about her family and friends.
* LargeHam: Justified, since she is an aspiring actress.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With Oscar and Milo [[spoiler: until she gets together with the former in the SeriesFinale.]]
* PluckyGirl: Bea is cheerful, enthusiastic and rarely gives up when she wants something.
* {{Pride}}: She has shown signs of arrogance, such as frequently complimenting herself and thinking that she's too talented to be punched, as "Happy Birthday, Jocktopus" shows.
* RedheadInGreen: [[MakesSenseInContext When she dresses as Oscar]] in "16 Clamandles".
* SingleGirlSeeksMostPopularGuy: The object of her affection in some episodes is the local PrettyBoy heartthrob.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: [[spoiler: During graduation, she realizes she likes Oscar]].
* SmallNameBigEgo: Due to her dreams of becoming famous, she often has a high opinion of herself. {{Downplayed}}, considering she can be a good actress and knows she isn't famous now.
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler: To Fishington in "Principal Bea".]]
* YouthfulFreckles: Although not that prominent, she has three freckles on each side of her cheeks.
