Main Characters:
Luna
Luna the Moon
- Voiced by: Judy Greer, Erin Fitzgerald (singing voice, "Andy's Big Show" until "The Mystery of the Mask"), Liane de Lotbinière (singing voice for the rest of the series)
- A Dog Named "Dog": "Luna" is the word for "moon" in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Latin, and Romanian.
- All-Loving Hero: Luna is friends with everyone in the world, living and deceased.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: "Luna's Christmas Around the World" ends with Luna noticing she has one fruitcake she hasn't given to anyone for Christmas yet. She wishes the viewers a merry Christmas as she offers them the fruitcake.
- Break the Cutie: Up until Luna talks with the spirit of her fallen friend, Bessie, in "Blue Orleans", Luna goes through a rollercoaster of sadness as she is heartbroken over Bessie's death.
- Cloudcuckoolander: She can come off as strange at times.
- Cool Big Sis: Luna is described as being like a big sister to Andy, Carmen, and Leo, and Luna is very patient and caring towards them.
- Elongating Arm Gag: In "Honey in Paris", when Luna and the kids exit the cheese shop to find where Honey went, Luna's arm extends to a cartoonish length when she grabs the binoculars they were using.
- Expy: She is one to Mary Poppins, according to
Word of God. - Famed In-Story: Since everyone knows about the moon in real life, the show takes it a step further and has everyone treat Luna like a celebrity of sorts.
- Fangirl: Of Syd and the Sydney's. She claims to own all of their songs.
- Forgetful Jones: "Andy The Giant" reveals that she forgets things in a couple hundred years.
- Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: She just wears a hat and shoes.
- Involuntary Dance: She dances whenever she hears music. Downplayed in that this is a reflex rather than another character's doing.
- Ironic Fear: Luna, the moon, is revealed to be afraid of the dark at times in "Day of the Dead". She even lampshades how embarrassing it is.
- Loved by All: She is loved by the people of China, as shown in "She is the Moon of Moons". In fact, she's loved by every person in the world, being treated as a celebrity.
- The Man in the Moon: She is a female anthropomorphic moon.
- Nice Girl: Luna is patient, caring, is a friend to everyone on Earth, and serves as a great parental/teacher figure to Andy, Carmen and Leo. She's also quite sensitive to the moods of others - if she's somewhere where a lot of people are sad or upset, she becomes sad as well.
- Older Than They Look: Admittedly it's hard to tell with an anthropomorphic moon, but Luna is at the very least several thousand years old, as she was there when the Chinese first celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was around 1600 BC. Since it's more likely that she's existed for as long as the Earth has (being the moon and all), that would make her over four billion years old.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: In "If a Hamster Could Fly", Luna respects Carmen's decision to not ride in the hot air balloon, offering to do something else.
- Sanity Slippage: In "C'est La Vie A Paris", she starts becoming insane due to Hockbar not relaxing on his break. Later, it's Luna who needs to relax. She even gets a Twitchy Eye.
- Signature Headgear: She wears a straw hat. In-universe, it is relatively iconic and is used to identify Luna. It is in fact an Italian gondolier hat with Chinese silk, which helps showcase multiculturalism.
- Signing Off Catchphrase: Luna ends most of the episodes by reminding the others that "There's more to learn about any place we visit! But remember, there's always tomorrow."
- Stellar Name: Being the moon and all.
- Stuck in the Doorway: A Running Gag in the series is Luna's inability to fit through doorways.
- Super-Strength: Luna is capable of lifting up a matryoshka doll and tossing a sumo wrestler.
- Sudden Anatomy: Luna sprouts arms and legs whenever she comes down from the sky.
Andy
Andy Hopper
- Voiced by: Jaiden Cannatelli ("Hola Mariachi"-"Time of Goodbye"), Evan O'Donnell (rest of the series)
- Absurd Phobia: Implied in the episode "Day of the Dead", where Luna explains to Carmen that it's a good idea to laugh in the face of anything you fear to make it less scary. The others explain what fears they laugh at, which are pretty standard phobias... until it gets to Andy, who says he laughs at asparagus.
- Artsy Beret: Wears a blue beret due to his love of art.
- Barefoot Cartoon Animal: He doesn't wear any shoes, which stands out when he's with his friends, Carmen and Leo, who do wear shoes.
- Big Eater: He can be like this at times, such as in "Speaking Wigglewalker", where he eats all the food for a juggling act.
- Camera Fiend: He dabbles in photography, which is the focus of several episodes, such as "Spring Has Not Sprung", where he wants to photograph the colors of spring, and "Rhinoceros or Bust", where he really wants to take a picture of a rhino.
- Circus Brat: His parents work in the circus.
- Eagleland: The Beautiful variant. He is a very kind-hearted American.
- Eccentric Artist: His main hobby is painting. Fitting the "eccentric" part, he tries to paint everything in sight in "What's the Big Idea?". He has dabbled other forms of art such as sculpture, but painting is his one true love.
- Fanboy:
- Of the Amazing Man comics.
- He's also a fan of Syd and the Sydney's.
- Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: He wears shorts and a hat, but no shirt or shoes.
- I Call It "Vera": As shown in "Where's Luna?", he names his telescope Jessie.
- Keet: He is easily excitable and loud.
- Kids Love Dinosaurs: "What a T-Wreck!" shows that he loves dinosaurs. In the episode, he helps assemble a dinosaur skeleton in Argentina.
- Literal-Minded:
- In "London Frog", Andy thinks that Big Ben is a giant with four faces, but it's actually a clock.
- In "Cave Dad", Andy sees his dad struggle with basic everyday modern things, and his mom calls him a "caveman" and refers to his room as a "man cave". This leads Andy to believe that his dad really is a neanderthal. He and the others paint his room to look like an actual cave. Sam is furious when he finds out, but clears up the misunderstanding; 'caveman' is just a nickname that Lucie calls him.
- Meaningful Name:
- His last name is Hopper, which fits him because frogs are known to hop. It may also be an allusion to famous artist Edward Hopper.
- Andy means "brave", which suits him because he's fearless and excitable.
- Rail Enthusiast: "D'Orsay Day" reveals that he loves trains, especially steam locomotives.
- Sore Loser: "Hoopin' Hopper" gives him a Compressed Vice that he gets sour over losing games. However, he learns that friendship is more important than winning.
Carmen
Carmen Mariposa
- Voiced by: Saara Chaudry
- Acrophobic Bird: Carmen is a butterfly, but she is hesitant about going in the hot air balloon in "If A Hamster Could Fly". Then again, her Wings Do Nothing.
- Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: She's a purple butterfly.
- Bookworm: Besides music, she also loves reading books such as The Hairy Games and Sherlock Holmes.
- Big "NO!": Carmen shouts one in "Guitar to Sitar" when the strings on her guitar break.
- Circus Brat: Her mom works in the circus.
- Commonality Connection: In "Aren't We a Pair?", Carmen discovers that she and Leyla have a lot in common. They're both butterflies who have pets (with said pets even having similar sweets-based names, no less), they both love succulents, and they both like music.
- Disappeared Dad: Her mother is shown, but her dad is nowhere to be seen.
- Face Your Fears: In "Day of the Dead", Carmen overcomes her fear of skeletons by putting her grandmother's picture on the altar, which is filled with skulls.
- Fangirl: Carmen is a huge fan of a YA book series called "The Hairy Games".
- Fully-Dressed Cartoon Animal: She wears a dress and boots.
- Innocently Insensitive:
- In "Aren't We a Pair?", Carmen assumes that Cairo, Egypt is "ancient" and "boring", and that all Egyptians live in pyramids, based on what she saw in movies. She eventually learns the opposite.
- In "Story Story," she brushes off her mom's family stories as 'boring' but later learns the value of storytelling and asks to hear her mom's story.
- Love Freak: In "Love and Harmony," despite the titular music duo becoming disillusioned with the world (and the messages they were sending), Carmen still believed in love. Because of her believing in love, she was able to mend Love and Harmony's relationship, as well as Andy and Leo's.
- Meaningful Name:
- Her last name, Mariposa, is Spanish for "butterfly".
- Additionally "Carmen" means "song", fitting a music-lover with a lovely singing voice.
- Ms. Vice Girl: Though she can be Innocently Insensitive, Carmen is still a good-hearted girl all things considered.
- Plucky Girl: Carmen has a love of adventure, and although she can be fearful of things like heights and skeletons, she always persists to the end. Best shown in the episode "Good Knight."
- The Power of Love: Carmen uses the power of love to not only repair Andy and Leo's friendship, but also Love and Harmony's relationship. Back in the day, Love and Harmony's songs didn't fix the world because Harmony stopped believing in what she was preaching. But when Carmen sung it, it worked because she believed in the power of love. The power of love even fixed Love and Harmony's house!
- Signature Instrument: She brings her Spanish guitar wherever she goes.
- The Smurfette Principle: Within the trio of kids, Carmen is the only girl.
- Species Surname: Her last name is Mariposa, which is Spanish for butterfly, her species.
- Team Mom: Most of the time, she acts as the peacekeeper and Only Sane Man of the trio, like in "Love and Harmony". However, she still has her moments where she acts out.
- Third-Party Peacekeeper: Andy and Leo keep fighting in "Love and Harmony," so Carmen tries to mediate between the two. Eventually, she brings them back together with the Love and Harmony song.
- Tragic Keepsake: Her guitar used to belong to her Abuela, who passed away when she was little.
- Tsundere: Type B. While she wants to get along with everyone and makes active efforts to make other people happy, Carmen can also get rather insensitive, demanding, and snippy when pushed to her breaking point (mostly to Honey and Andy).
- Volumetric Mouth: Whenever Carmen shouts, her large mouth takes up her whole face.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Carmen is afraid of skeletons, as revealed in "Day of the Dead". She eventually gets over it, though.
- Wings Do Nothing: She has wings, but she cannot fly.
- Women Are Wiser: Subverted. While she tries to be the Team Mom, she can be just as immature and prone to vice as Leo and Andy.
Leo
Leo Chockers
- Voiced by: Aidan Wojtak-Hissong (episodes 1-8), Shayle Simmons (episodes 9-present)
- Accents Aren't Hereditary: Leo notably lacks an Australian accent, even though both of his parents have one.
- Aesop Amnesia: Leo has to learn over and over to get over his fears.
- Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: He's a blue wombat.
- Cassandra Truth: In "The Story Of Smoothie", no one believed him when he said that his pet tortoise Wrinkles has a connection to a sultan at Topkapi Palace. As it turns out, he was right the whole time.
- Character Tics: He has a habit of tugging on his ears whenever he is nervous, scared, or in disbelief.
- Circus Brat: His parents work in the circus.
- Compressed Vice: In "Turkish Delight", Leo somehow gains the trait of not paying attention. This drives the conflict of the episode. This has only been seen once and not in any other episodes.
- Cowardly Lion: He can be extremely brave when it come to helping others, such as in "Barcelona Birdy", in which he not only helped Eva reach her home, but saved her life twice.
- Face Your Fears: In "Not Home on the Range", Leo manages to get over his fear of horses once he starts to ride one.
- Failures on Ice: He slips on the ice rink in "You Froze My Shorts".
- Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: He wears a hat, pants, and shoes, but no shirt.
- Informed Species: He is supposed to be a wombat but he looks more like a dog than a wombat.
- Involuntary Dance: Much like Luna, but only when he hears Samba music. He also lacks Luna's involuntarily destructive nature, only dancing in place unlike Luna who shoots around like a pinball.
- Lovable Coward: He is afraid and nervous all the time, but he's still a likable kid and is shown to be brave when he conquers his fears.
- Meaningful Name:
- "Leo" means "lion". It might be strange at first because Leo isn't a lion, but lions are brave, and so is Leo whenever he faces his fears.
- "Chockers" is Australian slang for "full".
- Neat Freak: He prioritizes cleanliness. To him, washed hands are a must. This is justified — he's an aspiring chef and clean workspaces free of germs are important for cooking.
- Nervous Wreck: He can be like this at times, most notably in "What a Matryoshka" and "Bob the Plant".
- Not Even Bothering with the Accent: He's Australian, but, for some reason, doesn't have an Australian accent.
- Prone to Tears: Leo is by far the most sensitive of the trio. He easily gets upset and cries in some episodes.
- Rage Breaking Point: In "Volcano Boy", he increasingly gets more and more upset when his plans for the day are ignored. When the volcano erupts, Leo erupts too, and goes on a furious rant about how he can't get what he wants.
- Signature Headgear: His orange and white baseball cap. In "Me and My Elephant," he gave his hat away to Maktao as memorabilia, but he still wears it in later episodes.
- Supreme Chef: In "C'est Cheese" he makes a sandwich so delicious his cooking teacher was just amazed.
- Vocal Evolution: Since his voice actor changed starting with "Speaking Wigglewalker", his voice is now more high-pitched.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: In "Not Home on the Range", Leo is shown to be afraid of horses. As with the above example, he gets over it by the end of the episode.
- Yo Yo Plot Point: Leo being afraid of everything comes up again and again, even after he gets over his fears. It's gotten to the point where it's eclipsed his love of food.
Circo Fabuloso
Main
Señor Fabuloso
Señor Moncarlo Fabuloso
- Voiced by: Paul Braunstein
- A Birthday, Not a Break: On his 10th birthday, he ruined his own birthday cake and was permanently traumatized by this.
- Ambiguously Bi:
- He was clearly attracted to the female Felicita in "It Takes Leo to Tango," which is the only thing keeping him from being Ambiguously Gay. He has Large Ham, over-dramatic tendencies, and campy style of dress. Andy describes him as "flamboyant" in his book in the episode "Meet the Presses".
- However, he isn't quite Camp Straight either, as he is implied to also be attracted to men. The way he talks about Don Magnifico in "Time of Goodbye" makes him sound like a bitter ex-lover. In "The Mystery of the Mask", he celebrates his "friendaversary" with Mr. Hockbar and explicitly mentions that when he first met Hockbar, he was enamored with him.
Señor Fabuloso: Way back when I started my Circo Fabuloso, I was searching for a special act. I became enamored with a unique Khon dancer I found in Thailand, and asked him to join my troupe. He wore that very mask, and that man became my best friend who helps me run my Circo to this very day. Yes, children, that very Khon dancer was none other than, the incomparable Mr. Hockbar! - Benevolent Boss: Despite his perfectionist tendencies, he truly cares about the performers of the Circo Fabuloso and is good with the children.
- Big "NO!": He screams "NOOOOOOOO!" in "Jolly Special Friend" when Papa Chockers loses his voice.
- Birthday Hater: While he doesn't hate regular birthday parties, he hates children's birthday parties. This is because he suffered great emotional trauma on his 10th birthday party.
- Bonding Through Shared Earbuds: He and Hockbar do this with headphones at the end of "Everything's Irie."
- Bunny-Ears Lawyer: He may be an eccentric, perfectionist drama king, but he still does a good job at running his circus.
- Childhood Friend: In "Time of Goodbye", it's revealed that he used to have a friend named Don Magnifico when he was younger, but one day, Magnifico left him, leaving Senor Fabuloso bitter whenever St. Jordi's Day arrives and careful not to get too close to anyone. In the episode, Don Magnifico and Senor Fabuloso encounter each other again and rekindle their friendship.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Fabuloso is quite eccentric. He's obsessed with hats, and enjoys being slathered in marmalade and being encased in a giant gelatin mold.
- Comical Overreacting: He overreacts to everything, whether it be Luna going missing or Papa Chockers losing his voice.
- The Dandy: Fabuloso is a flamboyant, moody fop who cares about looking good just as much as he cares about running the show. Made the subject of "Fabuloso's New Clothes".
- Drama Queen: Always overdramatic about everything.
- The First Cut Is the Deepest: He feels like he is unable to get close to anybody again after Don Magnifico, his childhood friend, seemingly abandoned him on St. Jordi's Day.
- Gratuitous Spanish: Being from Spain, he inserts some Spanish into his dialogue.
- Hat of Authority: His red top hat helps show his position as a ringmaster. He's also very obsessed with hats in general.
- Heroic BSoD: After a Trauma Conga Line in "Everything's Irie," Fabuloso devolves into a serious depression, to the point where he considers shutting down the Circo and just giving up on life. However, Carmen and the others help him to feel better.
- Know-Nothing Know-It-All: In "Where's Luna?", he tries to be an expert on the Jantar Mantar, but fails. He later admits that he isn't an expert.
- Large Ham: Always speaks very loudly and dramatically. This is justified, as he is a ringmaster.
- Leitmotif: A Spanish trumpet fanfare usually plays in his scenes.
- Meaningful Name: "Fabuloso" is Spanish for "fabulous".
- Mood-Swinger: He's infamous for being moody, switching emotions at the drop of a hat. It's even lampshaded in "Fabuloso's New Clothes", where Leo states that Fabuloso is sometimes happy, and sometimes sad.
- Mr. Vice Guy: Despite being overdramatic and bossy, Fabuloso is ultimately a good person, and is usually nice with the children and the other Circo members.
- Never Be Hurt Again: "Time of Goodbye" reveals that in his childhood, he had a friend named Don Magnifico, who he later lost touch with, severely hurting Senor Fabuloso. As such, he despises St. Jordi's Day (the day that Magnifico left him) and wanted Carmen to not give a gift to her new friend Silvia so she wouldn't be hurt the way he was.
- New Old Flame: He and Felicita, the One-Shot Character in "It Takes Leo to Tango," are implied to have some history together. Fabuloso still harbors some feelings for her, and is annoyed at the mention of her new dance partner, Santiago.
- Nice Guy: Usually, friendly with the kids. It says so much in one episode where the kids give him a custom matryoshka ( with a heart in the center).
- The Perfectionist: Senor Fabuloso always strives for perfection and wants the circus shows to be in tip-top shape.
- Spit Take: At the beginning of "Windy Washi", Senor Fabuloso does a spit take when he notices that there's literally nothing in the newspaper, not even an ad for the Circo's latest show.
- Suddenly Fluent in Gibberish: As revealed in "Luna's Christmas Around the World," he is somehow able to translate penguin sounds.
- Trauma Button: "Gaja's Birthday" reveals that he is traumatized by children's birthday parties. On his 10th birthday, he tripped on a rock and ruined his birthday cake, humiliating him. Because of this, he is heavily traumatized by specifically children's birthday parties and especially birthday cake. This is why he was hesitant to take the kids to Gaja's party, because he doesn't want to mess up another party like he did his own.
- Trauma Conga Line: In "Everything's Irie," Fabuloso suffers misfortune after misfortune. First, he wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. Then, he realizes that his favorite book is gone and is with Mr. Hockbar, who is on his day off. This means that Fabuloso has to do all his paperwork, mountains of it. He trips and cracks his back, accidentally stamps his beak, and to top it all off, gains his own Personal Raincloud.
- We Used to Be Friends: "Time of Goodbye" reveals that in his childhood, he had a friend named Don Magnifico, to who he was very close. However, Don Magnifico left him on St. Jordi's Day, breaking Fabuloso's heart and causing him to be bitter towards St. Jordi's Day and unable to get close to anyone. However, they reunite by the end of the episode.
- Wingding Eyes: He gets heart eyes when he sees Felicita in "It Takes Leo to Tango."
- The Wonka: His eccentricities and perfectionism help make him a world-famous ringmaster.
Mr. Hockbar
Hock Thelonious Bar
- Voiced by: David Berni
- A Day in the Limelight: In "C'est La Vie A Paris", where the Circo tries to get him to relax.
- Ambiguously Gay: He is undyingly loyal to Senor Fabuloso and does whatever he asks. When Fabuloso encountered him as a Khon dancer in Thailand, he mentioned he was enamored with him at first sight. They share a lot of tender moments, especially in "Luna's Christmas Around the World". Hockbar goes on a date with Fabuloso to get sobolo juice in "Muddy Miracle", and doesn't object to Fabuloso stripping down to his underwear in "Fabuloso's New Clothes".
- Beleaguered Assistant: To Senor Fabuloso, as he is over-worked and always forced to take part in Señor Fabuloso's crazy plans. Downplayed to some degree, since he's happiest when he has something to do - it's usually being roped into Fabuloso's antics that grinds his gears.
- Broken Tears: In "A Moon's Trip to Paris", Hockbar freaks out then sobs when he sees Fabuloso as a chicken. As he does, he tells the chicken that it will be their secret.
- Busman's Holiday: In "C'est La Vie A Paris", he was supposed to take a break from working, but somehow finds even more work to do.
- Butt-Monkey: Mr. Hockbar is always suffering some kind of misfortune.
- Given Name Reveal: "The Mystery of the Mask" reveals that his full name is Hock Thelonious Bar.
- Hidden Depths: "The Mystery of the Mask" reveals that he used to be a Khon performer in Bangkok, Thailand.
- Hyper-Competent Sidekick: Mr. Hockbar is this to Señor Fabuloso, being precise and obsessed with keeping the show running on time.
- Idiot Ball: Hockbar is usually the sensible one, but in "A Moon's Trip to Paris", Andy's special effects are so convincing to him, that he thinks Señor Fabuloso actually became a chicken.
- Informed Species: He doesn't look much like a vole.
- Mobile Shrubbery: In the episode "She Is the Moon of Moons", Mr. Hockbar hides in a bush so that he can be prepared to surprise Luna when the kids are ready to celebrate the surprise party they have planned for her at Beihai Park.
- Orange/Blue Contrast: He has an orange outfit with a blue vest.
- The Perfectionist: He wants everything to be exactly right and on time, and gets annoyed when it isn't.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In "Lullaby For Baby Vlad", he gets out of babysitting Vlad and lets the kids do it instead.
- Straight Man: He is much more down-to-earth compared to Señor Fabuloso.
- Workaholic: Mr. Hockbar loves working, and does it all the time. In "C'est La Vie A Paris", Senor Fabuloso orders him to take a break, but Mr. Hockbar was still being a perfectionist workaholic during his break, much to Luna's annoyance.
Magic Globe
The Magic Globe
The Magic Globe, with China highlighted.
- Voiced by: Miku Graham
- The Blank: She doesn't have a face, yet can speak, smell, and see.
- Exactly What It Says on the Tin: The Magic Globe, is, well, a magic globe.
- Expy: Of Face 9000. Both are floating devices that can be summoned at any time, and are there to educate the kids about the topic of the episode.
- Freak Out: In an Out-of-Character Moment, she does this in "C'est Cheese" when she sees a giant wheel of cheese.
- Ms. Exposition: She usually provides exposition about the places that the Circo Fabuloso visits.
- Once an Episode: She shows up once per episode to teach the kids about the country they're visiting.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here:
- After Leo breaks his dad's bowl in "When The Bowl Breaks", Magic Globe exits the scene and says "Uh, have fun in Tokyo, kids!"
- Does this again in "Stinky Fruit" when offered some durian fruit.
- The Smart Girl: Knows a lot about the countries of the world. Justified as she literally is a globe of the world.
- Sudden Anatomy: As the end of "Longbeak the Pirate", the Magic Globe is shown having arms, meaning she's capable of gaining limbs.
Honey
Honey the Hamster
- Voiced by: Zoe Hatz
- A Day in the Limelight: She gets her very own spotlight episode in "Honey In Paris".
- Alliterative Name: Honey the Hamster.
- Bratty Half-Pint: In "If a Hamster Could Fly", Honey throws a tantrum when Luna suggests doing something else besides riding in the hot air balloon. She berates Leo and Andy for respecting Carmen's discomfort, then tries to go to the sky by herself.
- Genki Girl: She isn't really featured as a primary character very often, but when she is, she makes up for it in spades. She has a habit of breaking out of her cage and then rocketing off to find fun.
- Little Miss Snarker: She is very sassy, even towards Carmen.
- Luminescent Blush: Blushes several times throughout "Honey In Paris".
- No Indoor Voice: Honey does not speak below a fairly loud shouting voice.

Other Circo Members
The Hoppers
Luccie Hopper
- Voiced by: Carolyn Scott.
- Ambiguous Syntax: Part of the plot of "London Frog" is that Luccie tells Andy about the clock tower Big Ben in such a way that he interprets it as "Big Ben is a giant with four faces who carries around and rings a giant bell every hour".
- American Accents: Minnesotan, however, it's subtle.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Has outlandish costume ideas. It's possible that Andy may get her goofiness from her.
- Minnesota Nice: She is MUCH more friendly than her husband, and appears to be from Minnesota, as she says things like "dontcha know".
- Shout-Out: With her eccentric personality and curly red hair, it's easy to think of I Love Lucy, a popular American sitcom. America is where she and her family are from.
- Spell My Name With An S: Hearing her name, you'd think it was spelled "Lucy" or "Lucie"
- Textile Work Is Feminine: She is the Circo's seamstress and, so, a lot of the times she's seen, she's either sewing or she's never without her tape measure. One of the episodes is kicked off by her having a hard time trying to give her costumes spring colors.
Sam Hopper
- Voiced by: Dan Chameroy
- Expy: Of Rocko's Modern Life's Ed Bighead, if he was more pleasant.
- Hopeless with Tech: He spent ten minutes trying to turn on a computer. He even tried to use the mouse like a telephone.

- Mad Eye: He has a lazy right eye, which is easier to notice when he's looking at something.
- Perpetual Frowner: He hardly ever smiles. So far, he's only smiled once and that was in Stairway to Art Day.
- Shout-Out: His name may be a reference to American icon Uncle Sam, as in the "I Want You To Join the US Army" posters.
- When He Smiles: He only smiled once, but when he did, it changed his whole face.
The Mariposas
Maria Mariposa
- Voiced by: Tamara Almeida
- Alliterative Name: Maria Mariposa.
- Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: A blue butterfly.
- Ambiguously Absent Parent: We don't see Mr. Mariposa, nor is he mentioned. Similarly, when we visit the extended family, we don't meet her father (Carmen's grandpa) either.
- Bifauxnen: She rocks the tux she wears.
- Birthday Episode: She has her birthday in "Guitar to Sitar".
- Fully-Dressed Cartoon Animal: Wears a tuxedo and shoes.
- Good Parents: Maria is shown to be a loving and patient single mother to Carmen.
- Prim and Proper Bun: The bun she wears reflects her high status as a music conductor.
- Species Surname: Doubling as a Meaningful Name, her last name being the Spanish word for "butterfly".
- Trrrilling Rrrs: Due to her heavy Spanish accents, she puts a lot of emphasis on her R's.
- Wings Do Nothing: Despite that she has wings, she does not fly.
The Chockers
Wolfgang Chockers
- Voiced by: Paul Braunstein.
- Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: He's a blue wombat.
- Bumbling Dad: At least compared to his wife, who is more serious and hardworking. Wolfgang loves telling cheesy puns and goofing off.
- Cannot Tell a Joke: He tells bad jokes and it says something if his wife doesn't like them but he finds his jokes funny anyway.
- Good Parents: A fun-loving father to Leo who teaches him the art of cooking.
- Lost Voice Plot: He loses his voice on "Jolly Special Friend", but gets better immediately after eating chicken pad thai.
- Pungeon Master: Puns are his specialty.
- Sick Episode: He is sick for most of the episode "Jolly Special Friend", preventing him from making lunch for Senor Fabuloso and his special friend. Luna and the kids fill in for him by ordering food from various restaurants and trying to figure out which one would work best, learning about the cultural diversity of the UK in the process since all the restaurants they visit specialize in assorted international cuisine.
- Supreme Chef: He is known to cook very well and can cook a variety of cultural dishes. It's where Leo gets his love of food.
- Team Chef: He's the chef of the Circo Fabuloso. When he's sick or absent, everything falls out of whack.
Pippa Chockers
- Voiced by: Linda Ballantyne
- Ms. Fixit: The resident carpenter of the Circo Fabuloso.
- Satellite Character: She never got an episode focused on her. Whenever she appears, it's always with her family.
- Women Are Wiser: Pippa is more serious compared to Wolfgang's joke-cracking nature.
- Wrench Wench: Older than most examples of this trope, Pippa is the Circo's carpenter and, as one might expect, she's in charge of the modifications and repairs of the Circo.
Mathilda Chockers
- A Day in the Limelight: In "Glocken Around The Clock", Leo's given the job to babysit her and much of the episode is centered around trying to keep her from doing the "terrible thing".
- The Baby of the Bunch: The youngest member of the Circo, as she is a literal baby.
- Circus Brat: Like her brother Leo, Carmen, and Andy, her parents work in the circus.
- Goo-Goo-Godlike: She's a more regular example than most, however, somehow, she's capable of wrecking things babies wouldn't usually wreck, including a whole shop of glockenspiels.
- In-Series Nickname: Leo calls her "Messy Mathilda" because of her messy eating habits.

Bonjour and Au Revoir
Bonjour on the left, Au Revoir on the right.
- Voiced by: Peter Cugno
- Cartoon Creature: Hard to say what they are. They look vaguely human but still. It's suggested that they may be mandrills because of their mask-like faces.

- Identical Twin ID Tag: Bonjour wears a purple mask and Au Revoir wears a green mask. Another way to help remember who's who is their names: Au Revoir starts with an A and green starts with G. Bonjour starts with a B and purple starts with a P. A comes before B as G comes before P.
- Jerkass Ball: In "Bonjour, Au Revoir, Adios", when they become extremely patriotic for France out of nowhere, all because they think that New Orleans took more influence from France than Spain. They fought with Senor Fabuloso about it in the episode.
