Oscar Madison

Played by Matthew Perry

Teddy

Played by Wendell Pierce

• Big Eater: Implied. He seems disgusted with Felix's meatless food and, after being on a juice cleanse for an entire episode, eats a prop burger with no hesitation.
• Deadpan Snarker: Has been known to get a snark or two in. Mostly happens with Oscar, though really no one is spared.

Danielle "Dani" Duncan

Played by Yvette Nicole Brown

• Alliterative Name: Danielle "Dani" Duncan.
• Cloud Cuckoolander: The woman pulls out Porky Pig imitations at random.
• Deadpan Snarker: Again, like Teddy, most of her remarks are directed at Oscar.
• Expy: Of Myrna from the original series.
• Sassy Black Woman: If Oscar happens to push her a little too far, she flies right past Deadpan Snarker and into this territory.

Emily

Played by Lindsay Sloane

• Distaff Counterpart: Seems to be one to Felix.
• Shrinking Violet: Is shy, somewhat clumsy, and always seems to have awkward pauses when speaking.

Casey

Played by Leslie Bibb

• Birds of a Feather: With Oscar.
• The Lad-ette: Downplayed. She's sloppy and likes drinking and emotionless sex, but she also has some girly traits.

Ashley

Played by Christine Woods

• Adaptation Name Change: Felix's ex-wife was named "Frances" in the original play, both films, and The New Odd Couple, while the 1970-75 series renamed her "Gloria", making this the second name change she's gone through in the franchise.
• Amicable Exes: With Felix.

Gabby

Played by Lauren Graham

• Adaptation Name Change: Was named "Blanche" in all prior media.
• Deadpan Snarker: She can match Oscar's wit and insults blow for blow.
• Sex with the Ex/Primal Scene: With Oscar in "The Audit Couple".
• Spell My Name With An S: Conflicting sources list two different ways her first name is spelled: the original pilot script reads "Gabby" while the Wikipedia page reads "Gaby".
