4!The Harvey Girls
5[[folder:General]]
6[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c10_0703_tv_jpg.jpg]]
7* AdaptationPersonalityChange: The main trio have different personalities than they did in the comics, with Dot now being a scientific neat freak and Audrey being a tomboyish adrenaline junkie. Lotta's is mostly carried over, but she is not portrayed as an overeater here, as she bulked up overnight as part of a sudden growth spurt.
8* CostumeEvolution: The girls' old-fashioned dresses from the comics have been completely overhauled into more contemporary clothing.
9* TownGirls: Lotta is Femme, Audrey is Butch, and Dot is Neither.
10* YouDontLookLikeYou: Audrey and Dot lose their dresses. The former replaces hers with a shirt with a thunderbolt and cyan trousers, and the latter replaces hers with a turquoise top and navy blue trousers and is changed from Caucasian to African-American. Lotta replaces her dress with a cyan short-sleeved hoodie, skirt, and tights.

14!!!Voiced by: Creator/StephanieLemelin
15[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/little_audrey_harvey_street_kids.png]]
16TheLeader of the Harvey Girls, a cute but tough energetic {{tomboy}}. She is the self-proclaimed protector of Harvey Street.
17----
18* BerserkButton: Calling her a "butt sandwich" will cause her to declare [[ThisMeansWar all-out water-balloon war]] with you.
19%%* ChildishToothGap
20%%* CloudCuckooLander
21* DreadfulMusician: Zigzagged; she can play the electric guitar, but she's terrible at playing the harmonica. In "Raccoon Hoarder Picture Show", she uses the fact that she's self-taught as a threat to the raccoons.
22* EnmityWithAnObject: She seems to have an irrational dislike of potpourri, simply saying that it never works when Lotta suggests using it to mask the odor of the soup she's been feeding Marco in "Can't Purr-y Love".
23* GadgeteerGenius: While she lacks Dot's intelligence, Audrey has built a full-size wooden water ride, a vibrating chair made entirely out of cats, and, in a case of MacGyvering, combined Christmas lights in such a way to generate ''artificial daylight'' '''''visible from space'''''. She retains this skill from her original incarnation, who in one short built a RubeGoldbergDevice to wash dishes for her.
24* {{Gasshole}}: She burps rather frequently in Season 2, and is quite proud of her ability to do so, despite showing no such tendencies in Season 1. Perhaps someone on the writing staff realized between seasons that they had [[VideoGame/CallOfDutyZombies Misty Briarton]] voicing Audrey and decided to run with it.
25%%* TheLeader
26* LiteralMinded: When she considers "buttering up" Stu to get him to let her ride his hoverboard, it's shown that she was initially planning on doing so quite literally before Dot gave her a different idea. She then hastily shoves the whole stick of butter in her mouth.
27* MythologyGag: Her offscreen attempt to make a flaming trampoline in "Pretty in Pinkeye" explodes, burning her hair in a way that causes it to vaguely resemble that of her 1940's counterpart.
28* PrehensileHair: Briefly has this ability for a gag in "The Great Brain Robbery" when Melvin eats her and the other Harvey Girls' special order ice cream treats. She shapes her top pigtail into an arm making a fist and prepares to punch Melvin, only to stop when she sees that he's suffered severe BrainFreeze and instead uses it to gauge his condition. This ability shows up again as a brief gag in "The Lice Storm" and "Can't Harvey Wait".
29* SiblingRivalry: With Zoe.
30* SuddenEyeColour: {{Inverted|Trope}}; her eyes were blue in her original design, but per the show's art style they're now all black. On at least one occasion, it's then played straight when she gets angry and her eyes appear blue.
31* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Despite being an obvious tomboy, she still likes [=Crush4U=].
32* VerbalTic: Has a tendency to use {{portmanteau}}s of synonyms in her speech (spectacular + stupendous = spectacu-pendous, annoying + irritating = annoy-itating, etc.), which is later revealed to have been taught to her by Zoe, who wanted to make her sound insane to others.
33* WildChild: Has some elements of this, being drawn with oddly pronounced incisors in some scenes and occasionally exhibiting animalistic behavior such as squaring off against The Bow and Marco in "Cereal" and "Can't Purr-y Love". She becomes a proper example in "A Matter of Life and BFF" when Lotta's IndulgentFantasySegue depicts her [[RaisedByWolves being taken in by the raccoons]].
34* YouDontLookLikeYou: She had a more feminine appearance in her Harvey Toons incarnation.

36
37[[folder:Dot]]
38!!!Voiced by: Creator/KellyMcCreary
39[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/little_dot_harvey_street_kids.png]]
40The [[TheSmartGuy Smart Girl]] of the Harvey Girls, a serious perfectionist who has an interest in science. She is the CEO of Harvey Street Enterprises.
41----
42* DeadpanSnarker: She has her moments.
43* EnmityWithAnObject: Like Audrey, she dislikes potpourri, saying that it's a scam.
44* GadgeteerGenius: She built her own multi-function quadcopter, jetpack, and other various inventions, either by necessity or because she can.
45%%* TheLancer
46* RaceLift: Was originally white in the comics, but is African-American here.
47* TheSmartGuy: Well, "The Smart ''Girl''".
48* YouDontLookLikeYou: On top of the RaceLift, she originally had a red polka-dot dress.
49[[/folder]]

51[[folder:Lotta]]
52!!!Voiced by: Creator/LaurenLapkus
53[[quoteright:197:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/little_lotta_harvey_street_kids.png]]
54The NiceGirl of the Harvey Girls, a friendly and caring [[TheIdealist idealist]]. She is the "snuggler and cuddler" of Harvey Street.
55----
56* {{Acrofatic}}: She is quite chubby but is a graceful dancer and can be quick when she needs to.
57* BerserkButton: The Bloogey Boys learned the hard way not to insult glitter to Lotta's face: if you're sitting down, Lotta will exploit her StoutStrength and use whatever you're sitting on as a slingshot. Despite this, expect a [[GentleGiant soft, if painful, landing.]]
58-->'''Lotta:''' ''Glitter is magic and'' '''''you know it!!'''''
59* BewareTheNiceOnes: ''Do'' '''not''' make her angry. She makes far more liberal use of her StoutStrength, and can bring her logic into CloudCuckooLander territory.
60** For example, when her friends point out serving a new, cute cat on the street its favorite stinky soup isn't making it her friend, Lotta, upset about the cute critter rejecting her, proceeds to ''rip and then chuck'' the Harvey Street Girls' refrigerator out of their trailer-clubhouse so she can try and find something which ''will'' make it like her.
61%%zce* TheBigGirl
62* BunniesForCuteness: Lotta loves bunnies so much.
63* CloudCuckooLander: To a lesser degree than Audrey.
64* DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: She occasionally forgets about her StoutStrength, with hilarious consequences. For example, when a prank leaves her and the rest of the Harvey Street Girls literally glued to swing-set swings, she walks off disappointingly, ''unknowingly dragging the swing-set and her friends with her!''
65** In another example, when she shows Tiny her ''overnight'' growth spurt, she accidentally rips the door off its hinges and embarrassingly shoves it back. When she takes off, she leaps into the sky and comes down with a GroundShatteringLanding.
66* DreadfulMusician: Like Audrey, she's bad at a particular instrument, in her case, the piano. Her playing and singing are so bad that at the end of "Cheer and Present Danger", she unintentionally antagonizes a flock of pelicans that chase her, Audrey, and Dot off into the horizon.
67* FasterThanTheyLook: Lotta, despite her bulk, is a remarkably-coordinated dancer, and is able to dodge spitballs and catch suddenly-falling kids as though they were part of a dance routine.
68* FriendToAllLivingThings: She has many animal friends in the local Harvey Street ecosystem, and can even summon them with special calls.
69** One episode revolves around her trying to befriend one animal that doesn't like her because if she didn't she'd be "Friend to a large amount of living things" rather than a FriendToAllLivingThings.
70** This friendship does not apply to the raccoons, whose thieving ways continuously torments the kids of Harvey Street.
71* GentleGiant: Despite her StoutStrength, Lotta is quite docile, prefers to end conflicts through mutual understanding, and is a friend to all animals.
72* HugeSchoolgirl: Lotta is at least a head taller than most of the cast other than Bobby the Elder.
73* IGotBigger: She developed a growth spurt ''overnight''.
74* LovableCoward: Has an intense fear of Halloween and heights.
75%%* NiceGirl
76* StoutStrength: Retains her superhuman strength from the comics, though it's revealed at several points in the series it took a [[IGotBigger growth spurt]] to gain it.
77* YouDontLookLikeYou: Downplayed, but she loses her dress in the transition to ''Harvey Street Kids''.

108* NiceGuy: The nicest of the Bloogeys and one of the sweetest kids on the block.

123Audrey's older sister, who lives to make everybody and especially Audrey miserable.
124----
125* AlphaBitch: Let's see, cheerleader? Check. Has two minions? Check. Generally unpleasant to others, especially her younger sibling? Big check.
126* BigOlEyebrows: She has very prominent eyebrows compared to the rest of the cast.
127* BigSisterBully: To Audrey, and how. Apparently, Audrey was forced to refer to her as "Her Majesty Queen President For Life Zoe" for the first six years of the former's life. She also once [[HumanMail tried to mail Audrey to Abu Dhabi]], convinced her that she was allergic to pizza, and sparked her hatred of raccoons by putting a raccoon in her bed.
128* EmbarrassingFirstName: Along with EmbarrassingMiddleName. As Audrey reveals, her full name is Zoelisha Bertha.
129* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She does seem to genuinely care about Maria and Stu and has a crush on "Mike Yank from fifth period English". In "Bring It Prawn", [[spoiler: she comes to Audrey's defense when a smug Melvin calls her a loser.]]
130* HeelFaceTurn: As of "Let It Zo," she starts to become a better sister to Audrey.
131* HypocriticalHeartwarming: In "Bring It Prawn", [[spoiler: she says that no one is allowed to insult her sister (except for her).]]
132* SiblingRivalry: With Audrey.

138[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/90bf9a90_97de_475d_a2ef_0755bd5ecc09.png]]
139Melvin's older sister, known for her incredibly-manipulative sarcasm.
140----

142* BigSisterBully: To Melvin, though not nearly on the same level as Zoe is to Audrey.

150The third member of Zoe's gang. Stu is recognised by his hair, which is so stylish that it's a weapon in itself.
151----
152%%* CoolShades
153* HairFlip: Stu's weapon of choice to annoy and irritate his victims.
154* WeUsedToBeFriends: Used to be contact juggling partners with Bobby before they had a falling out.

161[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin As his name implies,]] Tiny is really short despite only being in the third grade. Lotta is his first and best friend. His full name is [[AlliterativeName Tinaceous T. Tonner]].
162----
163%%* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname
164* TinySchoolboy: Aptly nicknamed "Tiny", which causes him to have HeightAngst.
165[[/folder]]
166
167[[folder:Lucretia]]

169[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lucretia_harvey_street_kids.png]]

182[[quoteright:236:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ebd3a569cac3c7c07e02aec652d37977.jpg]]
183She is selfish and rude to anyone other than herself. She is also obsessed with fashion.
184----
185* AlphaBitch: Not on the same level as Zoe, and in particular she lacks the GirlPosse that most other examples have, but she has other elements of this trope.
186%%* DeadpanSnarker
187* LonelyRichKid: In the episode "[=FruLess=]", at least, on account of [[NoSocialSkills her attempts to befriend the other kids]] making them [[TheDreaded terrified of her.]]
188* SchoolUniformsAreTheNewBlack: Her default outfit appears to be a private school uniform.
189[[/folder]]
190
191[[folder:The Harvey Street Bow]]
192!!!Voiced by: Creator/GreyDeLisle
193[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bow_harvey_street_kids.png]]
194A very mysterious CreepyChild who often pops out of nowhere to say something weird.
195----
196* CloudCuckoolander: She loves to speak in non-sequiturs:
197--> "I'm dancing like ''everyone's'' watching". (When engaging in a street-wide ukulele dance party.)
198--> "Embarrassing secrets are normal. Like the crush you all have on me." (When responding to Lotta admitting she has a crush on a boy.)
199--> ''[Acting like she's buying something illegal]'' "Cape me." (When buying a truly-legitimate cape from Dot.)
200* CreepyChild: All the way. She can literally merge her eyes into one, is the only one on the block to enjoy cheesy B-movie violence, has no bones, and she even lives in an archetypal OldDarkHouse. Nobody knows if she's [[AmbiguouslyHuman truly human at all.]]
201* {{Familiar}}: in "Scare Bud", The Bow claims to be a witch's black cat that was turned into a human. Whether or not she was kidding is up in the air.
202%%* ForHalloweenIAmGoingAsMyself
203* NightmareFetishist: Apparently lives alone in a creepy mansion and loves all things gothic and creepy.
204* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: And a shortened version of that, as she is generally referred to as "The Bow".
205[[/folder]]

207[[folder:Bobby the Elder]]
208!!!Voiced by: Creator/RogerCraigSmith
209[[quoteright:206:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bobby_harvey_street_kids.png]]
210The eldest and the wisest of all kids on Harvey Street. Despite his name, however, he is only a year older than the rest of the kids.
211----
212* FaceHeelTurn: Attempts to join the Fighting Bananas when Audrey and Zoe get into a fight. The Bow even calls him an "age traitor" and tackles him when he tries to weasel his way back into the other kids' good graces.
213* PrematurelyGreyHaired: A wise old sage who is really just a year old than the rest of the kids.
214* TookALevelInJerkass: Gets a lot more antagonistic roles in Season 2.
215** An ImagineSpot of his shows him being a tyrannical pharaoh and making the other kids build a sphinx for him.

217[[/folder]]
218

225* DorkInASweater: Emphasizing his intelligence.

233A billionaire kid who comes to Harvey Street in order to make friends.
234----
235* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: Instead of having wealthy parents, Richie Rich is a [[SelfMadeMan successful social media entrepreneur]].
236* LonelyRichKid: His reason for moving to Harvey Street.
237* NeverHadABirthdayParty: The final episode of season 3 reveals Richie never celebrated his birthday since he never felt a need to. The girls convince him to let them throw him one so he can experience all the joys that come with it. It backfires, however, when the emotions turn out to be too much for Richie, and he runs away from Harvey Street, ending the season on a {{cliffhanger}}.
238* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Very much so. Richie doesn't know how waiting in lines work, doesn't understand the fantasy genre, and generally has no idea how to interact socially.
239[[/folder]]
240
241[[folder:Dollar]]
242Richie's dog.
243----
244* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: He frequently displays a level of intelligence far above that of normal dogs, and even knows how to use tablets and apps.
245* TalkingAnimal: Thanks to his collar.
246[[/folder]]
247
248[[folder:Casper]]
249The famous friendly ghost, who has a guest role in "Scare Bud".
250----
251* AnotherDimension: He comes from one named Harvey Boolevard, which is inhabited by various monsters.
252* CassandraTruth: He has quite some trouble convincing the Harvey Kids that he is a ghost. They think he is just a kid in a costume who won't break character. His displays of ghost powers (like turning invisible) are handwaved by Richie as the result of apps, which he himself also has.
253* ReluctantMonster: As a ghost, he is expected to scare people, but he doesn't quite feel like it.
254[[/folder]]
255
256
