File:Trailerparkboys.jpg

The full cast of the first six seasons of Trailer Park Boys.

The following is a list of characters featured in the Canadian television series Trailer Park Boys.

Main characters

• Ricky (Robb Wells) enjoys marijuana, cigarettes and alcohol. He is Julian's best friend and the leader of the group. Bubbles claims that Ricky taught himself to read (minimally) by working through the instructions on frozen food packages labels so that he could eat. Apparently had Attention Deficit Disorder, which causes his restlessness. Trademarks: track pants, mangling the English language.

• Julian (John Paul Tremblay) is "the brains" of the outfit, he is smarter of the pair, although he does claim that Bubbles is the 'sharpest person in the trailer park'. His main goal in life is to get rich quick and retire, a goal he works towards with a variety of crimes. They range from operations as small as selling stolen barbequeues to as large as growing massive marijuana fields. Trademarks: always has a drink in one hand, black shirts.

• Bubbles (Mike Smith) is Julian and Ricky's best friend and conscience, known for his hoarse voice, absent-mindedness, and coke-bottle glasses. Abandoned as a five year old, Bubbles lives in a tool shed with his cats, who are his only family. He makes a living by stealing and refurbishing shopping carts. Trademarks: glasses, quick head movements.

• Jim Lahey (John Dunsworth) is a deranged trailer park supervisor and former police officer, who was wrongfully dismissed as a result of a prank by Julian, Ricky and Bubbles on Halloween 1977. He has since been re-appointed as a police officer, but retains his chronic alcoholism, often being intoxicated even while on duty. Trademark: peppers his speech with "shit" metaphors (a prediliction common to police officers in TPB).

• Randy AKA Randy Bo-Bandy (Patrick Roach) is Mr. Lahey's devoted assistant trailer park supervisor and "longtime companion." In the Christmas Special episode, it is explained that their "partnership" began when Lahey's then-wife, Barbara, found Randy working as a male prostitute in 1997, and, out of her Christian charity, invited him to stay with them for a while. Trademarks: never wears a shirt, white pants, and a big belly.

Recurring characters

• Lucy (Lucy DeCoutere) is Ricky's on-again, off-again demanding girlfriend and mother to his child, Trinity. Lucy and Julian had a relationship after high school, which Julian clearly wants to forget, but Lucy still expresses feelings for him from time to time. Gets a boob job in Season 5, which Ricky does not notice at first. After Trinity was once caught and charged with driving underage, Lucy (while drunk) tried to seduce the officers into letting her go, and she ended up hauled off to the drunk tank for the night.

• Sarah (Sarah E. Dunsworth) is Lucy's best friend. She moved in with Lucy and Trinity while Ricky was in prison at the beginning of season 1. She dated Ricky for a while and encouraged him to focus on school, and he achieved his Grade Ten education in The Bare Pimp Project. However, this relationship didn't last long.

• J-Roc (Jonathan Torrens) is rapper who lives with his overbearing mother at the trailer park. He speaks in ebonics and very frequently uses the phrase "Know what I'm saying?", pronouncing it "'Nomesayin'?" He often helps Ricky and Julian out in their money-making schemes, acting in large part as their fence.

• Cory and Trevor (Cory Bowles and Michael Jackson) are two rather stupid young adults who are often used as lackeys by Ricky and Julian, but it's rarely worth the effort because they have a tendency to screw up everything. The actors who played Cory and Trevor left the show after the sixth season. They have no plans of returning to play their respective roles.

• Barbara Lahey (Shelley Thompson) is the owner of Sunnyvale Trailer Park. She was married to Jim until she divorced him due to his relationship with Randy and his drinking problem. Despite being at odds with Lahey, Barb is on friendly terms with Randy, despite the fact that he is Lahey's new love interest. In the Christmas Special, it was discovered that she found Randy (not knowing he had an affair with her husband) working as a male prostitute and brought him home with her. She was briefly engaged to Sam Losco in season 2 until Julian and J-Roc showed her "The Bare Pimp Project", a low-budget adult film that Sam appeared in. Towards the end of season 4, she proposed to Ricky until he went back to prison for two months on dope charges. Thompson, who plays Barbara, first appeared as the officiant of Ricky and Lucy's short-yet-aborted wedding at the end of season 1.

• Ray (Barrie Dunn) is an ex-trucker, who is also Ricky's father. As of season 6, he assumed the role of assistant trailer park supervisor. He is often seen drinking and/or drunk, listening to blues music, reading the bible, and partying with the boys.

Other characters

• Shitty Bill is the local tow truck operator and hippie. Friend of Bubbles from cart salvaging. He tried to fart but ended up shitting his pants when he was a kid, hence the reason for his nickname. Bubbles makes the point for Ricky not to call him by his nickname "Shitty Bill" but in the next scene, Bubbles clearly acts to the contrary -- often referring to him simply as "Shitty." Shitty is seen and mentioned alot more in season 7, and even has a few lines.

• Bottle Kids is a gang of pre-teens that show up about every second episode with a shopping cart full of glass bottles and bombard one or more of the principal characters from a distance, and then run away. Randy is a frequent target, perhaps due to his fatness or his stupidity, and he mostly bears the strain of their attacks. The minute anyone shouts "Bottle Kids!", everyone ducks. In the fifth season Trinity was seen as one of the bottle kids. She took a large number of liquor bottles Ray had stored in Bubbles' tool shed, much to Ray's anger. Exactly why they do what they do is unknown, perhaps out of boredom for lack of entertainment or playground in the park.

• Candy was Julian's girlfriend at one point in the series.

• Jacob Collins (Jacob Rolfe) works at a convenience store and other hapless jobs where he is often robbed by Corey and Trevor or Ricky. He is nicknamed "Skeletor" by J-Roc due to his skinny appearance. Is the son of Phil Collins.

• "Greasy" Philadelphia "Phil" Collins (Richard Collins) is known for his huge stomach, Phil does many cameos on the show as a greasy motel owner, taxi driver and Lahey's paving assistant. He can also be seen in the crowd on the first episode, naturally shirtless. He is known for the famous phrase: "What ya lookin' at my gut fer?" Has been known to belch when hit in the gut with anything. Also, seems to have a fancy for the 2 for 1 down at the K.O.D.. He and Randy share a genuine friendship probably due to the fact they both like cheeseburgers and have huge guts. In Season 7 he and Randy opened a cheeseburger restaurant named the Dirty Burger that they ran out of Phil's RV. He once served as human shield for Ricky, or as Ricky called him "A human house". It has been rumoured that in the upcoming season, Phil will be married to a girl named Pat Beatty, who will also have a gut. Phil is the father of Jacob and Tom Collins.

• Thomas Collins is Phil Collins' other son who made his first appearance in season 7's episode, The Mustard Tiger

• Cyrus (Bernard Robichaud) is a bully who enjoys waving his gun around, a Beretta 92, and terrorizing the residents of the trailer park. Ruled over the park while Julian and Ricky were in jail for three months at the start of Season One, becoming their nemesis, and has showed up several times since. He is still trying to get his Grade 10, the last time of which Ricky caused him to fail. The tuned in fan will notice that Cyrus always has the same song playing in his car whenever he shows up at a scene. Cyrus ends every conversation (or confrontation) with other characters with the same line: "Fuck off, I got work to do". He drives a red 1978 Corvette, and he takes great care in keeping it in pristine condition. Later in the series, thanks to Lahey, he gets bailed out of jail with Terry and Dennis, two brother dealers screwed over by Ricky, to kill the boys. After a tense shootout at the park, he and his goons are sent back to jail, and in season five, Bubbles mentions they are serving twenty years for possessing illegal guns and for attempted murder.

• Danny/Donnie (voiced by Mike Smith) — the character who occasionally screams loudly but who is always depicted as being off-camera. He typically yells "What in the fuck?!" but has also said things like, "10 fucking dollars a month!" and "Enough with the fucking guns!" as well as, "Stop Fuckin Shooting!" and, "Don't Stop Fucking shooting on my account". In the Christmas Special, when the cop asks the people of the park, "Does anyone want to tell me were they got their trees?" Donnie shouts, "I don't know, does any one want to suck my cock?". He was seen from behind in the episode where the boys start a massage parlor. When Julian orders Cory and Trevor to handle the customers, Donnie is heard to scream "Get your fuckin' hands off me! I paid for a lady, not fucking Cory and Trevor!" This implies that Donnie was one of the two men.

• Dennis and Terry (Mio Adilman and Nobu Adilman) are a pair of Japanese-Canadian brothers who use their grandmother's house as a cover to deal hash. The brothers debuted in the episode Give Peace a Chance in season five. Ricky knows them well since their childhood days, but they are not well-liked by Julian and Bubbles. The brothers like to walk around the house wearing only their bathrobes while not covering their private parts. Bubbles labels them with many identities like "the flappy bird brothers" They get sent to jail with Cyrus for illegal gun-possession, but later, they are bailed out of jail and try to kill Ricky and the boys. After a gunfight, they are sent back to jail for attempted murder, and they are currently serving twenty years for their sentence.

• Desiree (Sandi Ross) is Levi's wife.

• Detroit Velvet Smooth (DVS) (Gary "Papa Grand" James) and Tyrone are J-Roc's managers. Tyrone is part of the original cast, while DVS was introduced in the episode Who's the Microphone Assassin?. In that episode, DVS found out from Mr. Lahey about how J-Roc was pirating his songs, and proceeded to crash his rap concert at the trailer park and threatened him. He later had a change of heart when the park residents told him about J-Roc, and since then DVS and Tyrone together manage J-Roc's career. It was Tyrone and DVS who came up with the idea of having J-Roc pretend to go to jail to increase his street cred. Ricky often calls DVS "DVD" (and when Lahey writes the names of the people he wants to send to jail on alcohol bottles, he has one labeled DVD). He does not hail from Detroit, as his name would imply, but rather from Moncton, New Brunswick.

• Gary (Kim Dunn) is a security guard at the mall. Catches Ricky and Julian stealing car stereos in season 2 but they manage to talk their way out of it. In Season 5 he gives Bubbles a hard time for stealing shopping carts and was very mean to him, which hurt Bubbles' feelings and made him cry. Julian goes down the mall later to straighten him out and give Bubbles all the carts he wants.

• George Green (George Green) was the local police officer most often dispatched to deal with Ricky and Julian. He is easily fooled by the pair and it is very rare that he makes a successful police raid and hustles somebody off to jail. In season 6, he was caught in Lucy's trailer by Ricky, handcuffed to her shower almost naked, apparently during sex. It was revealed in the Halloween episode that he was Lahey's partner back in the 1970s, and he was the one who caught Lahey, after a fight with the boys, with liquor all over him, forcing him to resign from the force. The reason George Green is so easily fooled by the boys is not because of any stupidity on his part (though, they will frequently describe Green as "the stupidest cop there is"). Instead, because of his past history with Lahey, he has a very hard time believing anything Lahey says, and a very easy time believing that Lahey is the source of a problem, as Ricky and Julian claimed. Strangely enough, George Green uses shit analogies the same way that Mr. Lahey does, once referring to the little boy who cried shitwolf when telling Lahey that he will no longer reply to Jim's calls, as Lahey never has any proof or evidence to back up his claims. Given that Erica Miller (see below) also uses shit analogies, it seems that this is a general habit among local police officers in and around Sunnyvale. In season 7, Green, along with Ted Johnson (see below), attempt to murder Lahey, Randy and Phil Collins; with the help of the boys and Ray, Lahey frames them for police brutality, and they are dismissed and incarcerated for five years.

• Ted Johnson (Jim Swansburg) was the detective officer who arrested Ricky at his wedding (season one). He returns in season five as George Green's replacement, and in season six as an officer along with George Green. There is no indication as to why he went down in rank from detective to ordinary officer. He has recently been romantically linked to Randy after running up a large tab on cheeseburgers. Johnson is depicted as the far less tolerant police officer who is much more difficult to deceive. Like George Green (see above), he is sentenced to five years for police brutality on Ray (which was entirely set up by Jim Lahey and Ray).

• Treena Lahey (Ellen Page) is Jim and Barbara's daughter. She hero-worships Ricky, and is good friends with Bubbles and Julian, much to the chagrin of her father. She appears only in season 2.
• Levi (Ardon Bess) is a friend of Julian, and Ricky. He is Desiree's husband. Levi and Desiree are Julian's foster parents, who raised Julian after they found him abandoned in the trailer park.

• Sam Losco (Sam Tarasco) is a former veterinarian who lost his medical license after helping Ricky fix a bullet wound, as veterinarians are not supposed to operate on humans. He later ran for Trailer Park Supervisor but lost to Jim Lahey after Julian slipped hallucinogenic mushrooms into his food prior to his speech to the residents of the park. After Julian ruined his potential marriage to Barb Lahey, he tried to shoot Julian, only to get busted for illegal gun possession. Then he got his veterinary license back (on probation) and started up his practice again. Bubbles often goes to him to inspect his cats' health. He has a mild demeanor, but he is not particularly fond of Ricky or Julian, as they are responsible for most of his problems. His favourite food seems to be greasy hot dogs and has been called a "caveman" by Ricky, Julian, and most recently Randy. In season 6, Sam had a new job at a paving company, but after a prank call by Ricky, loses the job. He places the blame on Randy, who he believes had made the call, and temporarily took Randy hostage in an attempt to trade him for money to pay off the fines he had received. Ricky often refers to him as a "greaseball bastard."

• Erica Miller (Shauna MacDonald) is a police officer who fell for Julian, hoping that he'd leave his current life behind. She later realized that he'd never change and arrests him. Taking her cue from Mr. Lahey and George Green (other police officers who use shit analogies) she grimly observes that "a shit leopard can't change its spots."

• Mrs. Peterson is an elderly park resident who mistakenly believes Julian is her grandson. Appears in the episode "Mrs. Peterson's Dog Gets Fucked Up" in which Julian and Ricky take care of her dog. She gives Julian a N.W.A. CD as a birthday gift.

• Bernie Sandford is the president of the International Association of Trailer Parks, Trailer Park Supervisors, and Assistant Trailer Park Supervisors (IAOTPTPSATPS). Bernie has an assistant Jason, who is kind of a servant to Mr. Sandford, getting him drinks on command and what not. When Mr. Sandford finds out about Ricky in the Episode The Green Bastard he introduces Ricky to his alter ego The Right Hook and tells Rick "That when the right hook comes out, Crazy Mutha' Fucka's Like you get knocked the fuck out."

• Trinity (Jeanna Harrison) is generally assumed to be Ricky's daughter; however, there are a few suggestions that Julian may, in fact, be the father. Supporting evidence includes numerous accounts of Lucy requesting more personal time with Trinity from Julian, and several suggestions that the past relationship between Julian and Lucy when they were in high school and a drunken night after a party (a night Julian wishes to forget) may have been more than one would first assume. There is not any definitive proof verifying either possibility, be the father Julian or Ricky, though the show portrays Ricky as the acting father figure in Trinity's life.
  "Trin" has an addiction to cigarettes and sometimes gets drunk, which usually ends up with Lucy being angry at Ricky. She has eaten weed brownies made by Ricky (unbeknownst to him) in the episode "Mrs. Peterson's Dog Gets Fucked Up", with her exclaiming, "These brownies taste funny." In the same episode, she shoots Ricky in the ass with a gun he left lying around. She has occasionally been cast as a participant with the Bottle Kids.
  She was recast in Trailer Park Boys: The Movie with Lydia Dawson-Baird. The reason for the change according to director Mike Clattenburg was that Harrison looked too old to play Trinity at a younger age, given the film takes place in between the third and sixth seasons.

• Tyrone (Tyrone Parsons) is J-Roc's sidekick and together the duo have been involved in many gangster like activities. The latest scheme was that he was part of a parcel-pickup theft scam in the trailer park. His real name is Tyler, but prefers to be called "T". In Dear Santa Claus. Go Fuck Yourself, which takes place in 1997, Tyrone speaks very plainly and professes that he had never smoked marijuana up to that point in time. Claims the reason he and J-Roc gangsta-rap is because the trailer park life, "is real gansta out here."
