https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dickdaring.png
Voiced by: Daran Norris

The siblings' world-famous daredevil adoptive father.


  • Alliterative Name: Dick Daring.
  • Big Eater: Can eat huge quantities of food. The episode See Dick Run sees him eat 37 pounds of ice cream.
  • Bumbling Dad: He's certainly not the sharpest tool in the shed in comparison to the rest of his family. Despite this, he's still a loving husband and is always there for his kids. A Daring Romance shows that despite his flaws, Dick is willing to make a conscious effort to be better.
  • Butt-Monkey: Dick is usually the biggest source of physical comedy on the show, and can walk away from almost anything completely unfazed.
  • Catchphrase: "Look out below!"
  • Companion Cube: His stuffed bear Evel Bearnievel.
  • Extreme Omnivore: He once ate 50 pinecones on a dare. The dare was only to eat one pinecone, but he found them so delicious he couldn't help himself.
  • Happily Married: To Agent K, despite them being the chosen replacement parents of Todd and Riley.
  • Masculine Lines, Feminine Curves: Inverted. His design is much more rounded than his wife's very angular body.
  • One of the Kids: He's pretty immature, to the point that he really doesn't need much convincing to get involved with his children's schemes.
  • Sarcasm-Blind: Doesn't respond to C.A.R.'s sardonic put-downs.
  • Supreme Chef: Dick is a surprisingly decent chef—but compared to his wife, that's a low bar to clear.
  • Thrill Seeker: It's part of his job. In Jumping Mad, Riley tries to make Dick's stunts more safe, it backfires and sends him into depression because there's no more risk in his job.
    Dick: I'm Dick Daring! Not Dick Perfect! Perfect is boring! I take chances; live on the edge!
  • Top-Heavy Guy: He's very buff and has comparatively little legs.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: In the episode "The Spy Who Was Riley", he reveals that he's afraid of clowns since childhood. He managed to face his fear when he joins with Todd to distract Dr. Scorpius' two henchmen.

    Agent K Daring 

Karen Mildred "Agent K" Daring

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kdaring.png
Voiced by: Kath Soucie

The siblings' adoptive mother who is of British descent and is a super spy.


    C.A.R. 

C.A.R.T.E.R., also known as C.A.R.

Voiced by: David McCallum

The high-tech family car with a British accent. He can do just about anything, but is not always willing to do something for the family, especially not for Dick.


    Prince Cinnamon Boots 

Prince Cinnamon Boots

The Daring Family's pet mule.


  • Butt-Monkey: In terms of being remembered by the family.
  • The Dog Bites Back: After being forgotten so many times by the Daring family, he decides to take over the house and lock them out until they apologize for their behavior.
  • Something We Forgot: A Running Gag throughout the show is the cast forgetting about his existance and leaving him left out on either their adventures or his own adventures.

Supporting Cast

    Conrad Fleem 

Conrad Fleem

Voiced by: Jeff Bennett

The mysterious owner of the Fleemco company. He processes Todd and Riley's requests whenever they call him.


    Tasumi 

Tasumi

Voiced by: Lauren Tom

Riley's Japanese best friend. She always wears a pink armor and claims her family is part of a crime-fighting team. She also has a list of people she hates.

In "Tasumi Unmasked", it's revealed that Tasumi is in fact a Japanese pop star. She moved to Pleasant Hills in order to escape the constant adoration of her fans and live a peaceful life. In order to make sure that nobody recognized her, she wore a costume from a popular TV show and used details from that show in order to get a new history.


  • 24-Hour Armor: Never took off her armor until "Tasumi Unmasked" by Riley's hand. Justified so that she could disguise herself as either a Sentai/Power Ranger like girl or at least a girl delusional enough to think she was one to avoid her hordes of Pop Idol fans.
  • Beautiful All Along: Her blue hair and attitude hints to an Asian and Nerdy look, but Riley after unmasking her regards her as cute.
  • Catchphrase: "You're back on my list!" and "That's wacky time!"
  • Engrish: Her English uses a few Asian stereotypical pronunciations. Justified in part that she did not grow up in America.
  • The Faceless: Her face was always obscured until "Tasumi Unmasked". Riley is shocked to discover her being pleasant looking.
  • I Just Want to Be Normal: She made a whole new identity for herself to get away from her celebrity status and live in peace. Ironically, her idea of normal was to give herself and family a Super Sentai like history and image which is anything but average.
  • Last Minute Hook Up: With Jacobo in the final episode as they can be seen holding hands.
  • Obfuscating Insanity: She claims to be from a Sentai-like crime-fighting team and acts like a Super Sentai or anime protagonist. It's mixed on whether her American friends believe her or just don't find it worth questioning her until Riley decides to investigate once and for all. It turns out Tasumi is a pop-idol who disguised herself as an always masked crime fighting character from a Japanese show that Americans aren't familiar with and her Japanese fans wouldn't think she'd like to avoid the pressures of fame and fandom. Everything she did in her disguise was just to shake off suspicion from her American friends and Japanese fans to appear as a random delusional nerd instead of celebrity.

    Jacobo Jacobo 

Jacobo Jacobo (Ha-co-bo)

Voiced by: Candi Milo

Todd's best friend who is of Mexican descent.


  • Last Minute Hook Up: He hooks up with Tasumi in "Irreplaceable", catching Riley and Todd by surprise.
  • Precocious Crush: He has one on Agent K.
  • Repetitive Name: His given and surnames are exactly the same.
  • Spell My Name With An S: His name is constantly being misspelled as "Hakobo", even by the close-captions, as it's easy for non Spanish speakers to miss the fact that J in Spanish is pronounced like H is in English.

    Abbey Willson 

Abbey Willson

Voiced by: Erica Hubbard in Season One, Tempestt Bledsoe in Season Two

Riley's other best friend.


  • Rich Bitch: She tends to have these moments in the prescience of other rich characters to fit in with them at the expense of her average friends.
  • Token Evil Teammate: Downplayed, but she's the only one of Riley's friends who would side with Alpha Bitch Sierra and the other Rich Bitch characters just for the sake of her class status. Otherwise she's still part of Riley's friend group.
  • With Friends Like These...: Agrees or laughs with Sierra's insults from time to time. She often gets glares from both Riley and Tasumi because of this.

    Shelton Klutzberry 

Shelton Klutzberry

Voiced by: Jeff Bennett

The Stereotypical Nerd at school.


  • Beautiful All Along: When he loses his Nerd Glasses. Given that his mother is a case of Ugly Guy, Hot Wife, he clearly inherited his mother's good looks.
  • Blind Without Them: When he loses his glasses and tries to run away, he can't help but collide everywhere.
  • Butt-Monkey: The subject of most of the slapstick and insults whenever he's around.
  • Dumber Than They Look: Shelton looks and sounds like a stereotypical nerd with his scrawny physique, poor posture and huge Nerd Glasses. However, as the series goes on it becomes clear that Shelton is actually an incredibly dim and gullible individual, and never shows any signs of being prolific at academia or any sort of intelligence. In "Truth or Daring" Todd manages to trick him into agreeing to challenging a professional wrestler to a fight (keep in mind Shelton isn't even strong enough to crush an egg). After he's been viciously defeated, Todd tries to trick him into a rematch by lying the wrestler has a fear of Crabs and raspberries. Shelton not only agrees but hopelessly misinterprets Todd's advice.
  • Fake Girlfriend: He has a fake girlfriend named Zelda, who is an interesting twist he acknowledges is not real, but says that a fake girlfriend is all he can handle right now and isn't ready for a 'real' one. Given that he turns into a Chick Magnet without his glasses it's surprising, until one realizes he's still an awkward nerd and thus doesn't want the attention of all those girls on him.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: The Daring siblings and their friends merely tolerate Shelton rather than being friends with him.
  • The Glasses Got To Go: Parodied. Without his glasses, he suddenly loses his poor posture and overbite as well as gaining a deep, handsome voice with no stuttering. How glasses cause any of these ailments is unknown. He doesn't like people to know because it turns him into a Chick Magnet and he doesn't want a girlfriend right now.

    Buzz Winters 

Buzz Winters

Voiced by: Grey DeLisle

A wannabe bully and Todd's arch nemesis.


  • Catchphrase: "Buzz fury!", "Good one, Buzz", and calling Todd and Riley "losers".
  • Compensating for Something: Wields a big mallet to compensate for having tiny feet.
  • Go-Karting with Bowser: A few episodes of Season 1 had him participating in Todd and Riley's activities.
    • Token Evil Teammate: Whenever he does hang with the gang he becomes this as he still denigrates his supposed friends and is less moral.
  • Jerk Jock: He's sporty and a bit of an ass to Todd even when he's their friend.

    Johnny Hitswell 

Johnny Hitswell

The subject of Riley's affection. He enjoys basketball and baseball. In season two he starts dating Riley, but breaks up with her for being to controlling after she followed him all the way to New York with Abby and Tasumi.


  • Big Man on Campus: The most popular guy in school who Riley has a crush on.
  • Punny Name: Johnny Hits well. Geddit?
  • Satellite Love Interest: Ends up getting subverted. His main development is how he interacts with Riley, but breaks up with her upon realizing that she's too controlling and he wants a life of his own.

    Sierra McCool 

Sierra McCool

Voiced by: Tara Strong

The popular girl at school, and Riley's arch nemesis.


  • Alpha Bitch: The most popular girl in school, fairly well off, and a total jerk.
  • Closet Geek: A big fan of Star Journeys, but she keeps that a secret since her fellow cheerleaders wouldn't think it's cool.
  • Hidden Depths: She was actually happy in "Cheer Pressure" to quit the squad because it meant she could be whatever she wanted to be instead of what was expected of her.
  • Jerkass: As the show's obligatory Alpha Bitch, she's framed as a mean, unpleasant person.
  • Kick the Dog: She does this in "Cinde Riley". She pretends to let Riley join her "cool girls' club", then she pushes Riley into a fountain and ruins her makeover.
  • Relationship Sabotage: Tries to do this to Riley's relationship with Johnny.
  • Rich Bitch: Loaded and a total jerkass to Riley. Her wealth actually tempts Abbey to join her in an effort to fit in with the other rich students.
  • Ship Tease: With Todd of all people in "Cheer Pressure", the two bonding over a mutual love of sci-fi. After she realizes she has to return to being a cheerleader and leave the nerdy stuff behind for the sake of her reputation, she bids him farewell and assures him that "he will always be her space pal".

    Donny Rottweiller 

Donny Rottweiller

Voiced by: Jess Harnell

A professional bully who is Buzz's mentor and Todd's other nemesis.


  • The Bully: More consistently than Buzz, given that the latter can at least be a Token Evil Teammate.
  • Eviler than Thou: Buzz is eager to learn from him because he's a lot crueler than he'll ever be. Donny doesn't even consider Todd a rough friend from time to time like Buzz.
  • Evil Mentor: To Buzz in bullying, who is giddy about being in the presence of a master.

    Ace Palmero 

Ace Palmero

Pleasant Hills' local news reporter.


    Dr. Scorpius 

Dr. Scorpius

Voiced by: Dave Wittenberg

Agent K's archenemy.


  • Punch-Clock Villain: Contrary to what Agent K thinks, he can actually go on vacation without having a hidden evil agenda.
  • Unholy Matrimony: Subverted. His wife knows he's a villain, and she seems to be okay with it, but she takes no personal interest in his work.
