 * Boy (voiced by Justin Michael) is an anxious and expressive teenage boy. He is the oldest and tries to be the most mature of the group, but finds himself at odds with his unique siblings. He also likes bobbleheads and hanging out with his five other siblings.
 * Girl (voiced by Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld) is a rambunctious and rebellious teenage girl. She is close to Boy, but challenges his authority. She is rather apathetic, usually being seen on her phone. She enjoys cosplaying as her favorite comic book characters.
 * Dog (voiced by Justin Anselmi) is a male German Shepherd/Jack Russell Terrier mix, according to concept art. He is athletic and active, with a slight streak of immaturity. As he is very obedient, he often has trouble refusing orders, especially from Boy.
 * Cat (voiced by Erica Schroeder) is a female Turkish van who behaves bizarrely and possesses unique abilities. Apart from the episode "Confession Cat", she rarely speaks.
 * Mouse (voiced by Abe Goldfarb) is a male stuffed mouse. He is intelligent and rational, but often makes really crazy and irrational machines as ways to solve problems.
 * Cheese (voiced by Erica Schroeder) is a female anthropomorphic piece of limburger cheese. She is very dramatic and is a diva who enjoys singing, throwing parties and writing fantasy novels.
 * The Smith twins (Stevie and Suzie) are the families enemies as they are competitive and cheat they think that they are superior to the family and can be seen doing obscenely mean things to the main characters.
