Belcher family

The Belcher family is a family who runs the family business called Bob's Burgers. Loren Bouchard described their ethnicity as:

For better, for worse we gave [the main characters] the name Belcher so at least one of Bob's parents hails from some French or French-Canadian lineage. But in a perfect world, we'd have the show about a sort of Greek-Armenian-Italian-Jewish-German polyglot.

The Belcher family consists of:

Bob Belcher

• Voiced by H. Jon Benjamin

Robert "Bob" Belcher, Jr. – Bob Belcher is the main character of the series. He is the son of Robert Belcher, Sr. (nicknamed "Big Bob"), the husband of Linda, and the father of Tina, Gene, and Louise. He is a third-generation restaurateur and currently the proprietor of his eponymous burger restaurant (Bob's Burgers) in a shore town. The Season 5 episode "Father of the Bob" begins with a flashback set 30 years prior in which a young Bob states that he is 14 years old, making him 44 until the episode The Laser-inth in which he turns 45 and then again in the episode Are You There Bob? It's Me, Birthday where he turns 46 years old. Bob is a tall, paunchy and swarthy chef, he has male pattern baldness and a bushy mustache (which is what initially attracted his bride-to-be to him). It is also mentioned in the episode that Bob's mother had died sometime prior to the series' beginning. Bob has a tendency to entertain himself by having conversations with inanimate objects, mainly food, and then speak back as the inanimate object, usually in a high, squeaky voice. He also enjoys making puns, utilizing this talent to name his burger specials (e.g. "If Looks Could Kale", "She's A Super Leek", "The Cauliflower's Cumin from Inside the House", etc.). As revealed in "Bob Fires the Kids", his childhood has been described as "crappy," as his father discouraged play. While poor with business management, and cursed with an unlucky streak, his skills at burger cooking have been shown to be excellent, to the point where he has been referred to as a "beef artist" by Mr. Fischoeder. His primary business rival is Jimmy Pesto who owns an Italian restaurant (Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria) across the street from Bob's Burgers. His eyes were revealed to be brown in the episode "Moody Foodie". (Which is the only way to know eye color in animation like the show).

As shown in the flashback during "Father of the Bob," the "Burger of the Day" special stems from an incident in which he customized a burger by adding chives and sour cream to it, calling it "Baby You Can Chive My Car." He tried to serve it to one of Big Bob's regular customers who normally ordered a tuna melt, but Big Bob threw the burger away in front of the whole diner. Ten years later, still resentful over not being allowed to cook the way he wanted, Bob turned down Big Bob's offer of a partnership in the diner and opened his own restaurant.

Bob prides himself on giving the customer a quality meal and goes the extra mile to ensure that, choosing fresh ingredients he gets from the local farmer's markets and co-ops. His biggest accomplishment is the 'Meatsiah', a concoction that consists of a steak tartare center with a medium-well cooked burger surrounding it and a burger Wellington surrounding the burger. Bob is allergic to shellfish, particularly lobster, as it causes his face to swell any time he eats it. This is a problem, as the (nameless) seaside town where the Belchers live has an annual lobster festival (which Bob hates because it takes away from his business). Bob, along with Linda, enjoys drinking and many of the episode gags involve Bob or Linda getting drunk, usually from wine. Bob also has a tendency to take mind-altering substances such as crack in "Sheesh! Cab, Bob?", absinthe in "An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal", pain relievers in "Housetrap", and his pain medication in "Burgerboss".

He has olive skin, dark hair with some bald spots in the middle on top of his head and feathered bangs swooping down on his forehead; a black mustache that matches his hair; a pale-grey, short-sleeved t-shirt usually donned with a white apron with a breast pocket with a pen peeking out of it; dark-grey sweatpants; and black loafers or dress shoes with white socks shown on the top near where his sweatpants end.

Linda Belcher

• Voiced by John Roberts

Linda Belcher – Linda Belcher is the happy-go-lucky and supportive wife of Bob and the mother of Tina, Gene, and Louise. Before her marriage to Bob, she was engaged to Hugo, who is now a local health inspector ("Human Flesh"). In the season 5 episode "Eat, Spray, Linda" she turned 44 years old. She has also referred to herself as a "pre-middle-aged mother" ("Lindapendent Woman"). Like her husband and kids, she has dark, black hair and swarthy olive skin. She typically wears a coral-pink long-sleeved top, navy-blue jeans, beige flats with the white socks peeking out, and a pair of thin-framed, red glasses. Her top is sometimes animated either high-necked with buttons on top of the neckline or animated in a v-neck style. She sometimes wears an apron around her jeans for cooking-contact reasons. Her black hair is flipped in with "flip curls" at the ends, peeking out at each side of her head at the bottom, kept shoulder-length. She is also hinted to be well-endowed, as in the episode "Oeder Games", her breast size, implyed by Louise on her bra size, is double D. Her large breasts are never actually emphasized or noticeable in the animation of the show.

Linda's attraction to Bob, whom she often refers to as "Bobby", is in part due to his passion for his work, and also due to his "Tom Selleckian" mustache. She remains a loyal and devoted wife despite their frequent financial problems, and never having had a honeymoon or a day off in 10 years ("Weekend at Mort's"). She has a preference for mustaches, and says Bob "made himself ugly" when he shaved it off ("Sheesh! Cab, Bob?"). Her passions include singing, dinner theater, porcelain baby figurines, Tom Selleck, nautically themed romance novels, and prenatal yoga. She handles the accounting for the restaurant, though her bookkeeping methods are overly complicated. She is fond of alcohol and is known to say that "Mommy doesn't get drunk; she just has fun."

Linda is extroverted, has a thick New York accent, and is fond of tackling problems using unconventional methods, though her methods are frequently over-optimistic and things sometimes go awry. She often encourages her kids to engage in behavior that Bob finds annoying, and though she wants what's best for her kids, she tends to be scatter-brained. Bob has described her as a "pushover" because she allows people (the kids) to take advantage of her. She has a contentious relationship with Louise and often misunderstands her, even once organizing a slumber party for Louise against her will. She is a talented lyricist, as shown in "Lil Hard Dad". She has a tendency to spontaneously burst into song, a trait she shares with her voice actor John Roberts. Many of the songs she is known for are improvised by Roberts, including her "Thanksgiving Song", "Dish-a-Dee-Doo" (a jazzy ditty sung while washing the dishes, as seen in "Mother Daughter Laser Razor"), and a hair-braiding ditty that references the late Harry Truman. Her songs are frequently remade and set to music for the episode's end credits.

Tina Belcher

• Voiced by Dan Mintz

Tina Ruth Belcher is the eldest Belcher child. She generally speaks in a low, monotone voice, wears glasses, works part-time at the family restaurant, and is often the voice of reason among the Belcher children. However, it is made quite clear Tina's own characteristics rival those of her siblings. She is trying to come to grips with her entry into adulthood and claims to have a complicated relationship with zombies. She typically wears a sky-blue, short-sleeved t-shirt; a short, navy-blue pencil skirt; white tube socks with red stripes on the bottom; black sneakers with white tips; and a yellow hairclip on the right side of her head, which she dons typically with her thick-framed, black-framed glasses to help her see better. Like the rest of her Italian-looking family, she has black hair and olive skin. She also wears her hair in a "bob cut" with loose curls at the ends. Despite seeming reticent and shy around her peers, Tina has an active social and romantic life. She has an on-again off-again relationship with Jimmy Jr., and has dated, kissed, or flirted with several other boys. She is obsessed with horses, boys (particularly Jimmy Jr.), and buttocks; in various episodes, she writes in her journal about touching people's butts, which, to her, is the height of sexual contact. According to her siblings, Tina has written erotic fanfiction of several television shows and movies and has moved on to "erotic friend fiction", in which she uses real-life people. She is a member of the Hormone-iums, a musical revue at Wagstaff that sings songs about puberty, and was formerly a member of the Thundergirls, a Girl Scout-like organization. Tina was aged 12 in early episodes and now 13 since the episode "Sheesh! Cab, Bob?". She is generally soft-spoken and reserved, often in contrast to her more strident siblings. In the show's early developmental stages, the eldest Belcher child was originally written as a boy, named Daniel Belcher, who was also voiced by Mintz, whose personality in the never-broadcast pilot is said to have been similar to that of Tina's. She is also shown to have difficulties with her schoolwork, although being a hard worker, as shown in "Can't Buy Me Math" when she is put into remedial math and "Bob and Deliver" when guidance counselor Mr. Frond refers to her as a "dum-dum".

Gene Belcher

• Voiced by Eugene Mirman

Eugene "Gene" Belcher is the middle child and only son in the family, revealed to be 11 years old in season 3. Like Linda, he has an upbeat and enthusiastic attitude about almost everything; however, he closely resembles Bob and has inherited his lobster allergy. He often promotes the restaurant by wearing a burger costume, which he uses to run in a mascot race in the season 1 episode "Torpedo" and using a toy megaphone to hand out samples. In "It Snakes a Village", it is shown that he suffers from ophidiophobia. Gene has a variety of interests and hobbies, with his most well-known being food and music. Though he has no training, he occasionally demonstrates great skill in music and aspires to be a musician; he enjoys playing a Casio-type keyboard and makes fart sounds using it and creates an elaborate love duet in "Topsy" as well as a one-man show in "Work Hard or Die Trying, Girl." Despite this, Gene is not without his flaws, namely a tendency to be easily distracted, which the family refers to as "Gene-ing out" in "Best Burger", but he is loving and loyal toward his family. He is also unathletic, as seen in several episodes including "Synchronized Swimming", when he has trouble opening a door which Tina then opens with ease and "Spaghetti Western and Meatballs", when he runs away from a fight in fear. Gene has an occasional tendency towards making unintentionally sexual double entendres, which his father Bob corrects or tells him not to repeat., often admonishing the boy by simply saying, "Gene..." Like his father and mother, he has swarvy olive skin and dark black hair. He has his hair in a short "bowl cut" with long flips at each side of his head. He sports a pale-yellow, almost-beige, short-sleeved t-shirt; a pair of slightly-lengthy light-blue denim shorts; short white socks; and, like his older sister, white and red sneakers.

Louise Belcher

• Voiced by Kristen Schaal

Louise Belcher is the youngest child of the Belcher family and is revealed to be 9 years old in season 1 and is still 9 by Christmas five seasons later. She typically wears a short-sleeved, olive-green dress slightly below the knees; black, mary-jane flats; and a hot pink beanie hat with rabbit ears on top of it. Like the rest of her Italian-looking family, she has black hair and olive skin. Her black hair peeks out from her large hat, slightly exposing the hair-ties holding up her pigtails; her yellow hair-ties in the front covered up by the long ends of her bunny hat along with the aglets of her hat. Like her mother and older sister, her hair has curls at the ends, specifically her pigtails have curls at the ends. In spite of being the youngest, she usually dominates her two older siblings by "wear[ing] down [their] self-esteem over a period of years." Precociously intelligent, manipulative, and aggressive (even towards adults), she is more than willing to exploit people if there is anything to be gained, and has a history of gaslighting her siblings, especially Tina. She has an offbeat and dark sense of humor and picks locks as a hobby. She tends to be very loud and often shouts at the top of her lungs to get her points across. Louise always wears her signature pink hat with bunny ears, regardless of the time of day or situation; to date, viewers have never seen her uncovered head. She claims that she has "a raging staph infection under here" in the episode "Synchronized Swimming" when they try to make her take it off. In "Ear-sy Rider," when a high-schooler stole her hat from her, her head was off-screen, then she wore a hoodie till she got it back. Louise is not immune to breaking her tough character persona, however: she called Bob "daddy" until she was eight, felt guilty about almost electrocuting her sister to death, still believes in Santa Claus, has a disturbing crush on a boy-band member, and proclaims she does love her family in the face of death at the end of season 4. Since she was a baby, Louise has always liked Bob more than Linda, opting to spend more time with him as she finds him much more interesting; it can generally be assumed that Louise and Bob have a very strong relationship, although she is the most prone amongst her siblings to mock him. In "Carpe Museum", Louise accidentally reveals her plan to take over the family restaurant when Bob retires, after renaming it to "Louise's Burgers."

Relatives of the Belcher family

• Gayle (voiced by Megan Mullally) – Linda's neurotic artist sister, the aunt of Tina, Gene and Louise and the sister-in-law of Bob. Bob dislikes her, much to Linda's consternation. She is desperately lonely and once fell in love with Bob because, Linda explains, she always wants what Linda has. However, men often take an interest in her, including Dr. Yap, Mort, Mr. Frond, and Mr. Fischoeder. She loves cats and may suffer from some form of factitious disorder, as she often fakes injuries.

• Al (voiced by Sam Seder) – Linda's father, father-in-law of Bob, and the maternal grandfather of Tina, Gene, and Louise. He rarely speaks, is hard of hearing, and wears a hearing aid. He accompanies Gloria everywhere. He has a fetish for women inflating balloons and then sitting on them until they pop.

• Gloria (voiced by Renée Taylor) – Linda's mother, mother-in-law of Bob, and maternal grandmother of Tina, Gene, and Louise. Bob doesn't like her very much and he always tries to hide from her when she and Al come over to visit. She convinces her husband to move to a retirement community of swingers.

• Robert "Big Bob" Belcher, Sr. (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin in "Bob Fires the Kids," Bill Hader in "Father of the Bob") – Big Bob is Bob's widowed father, the father-in-law of Linda, and the paternal grandfather of Tina, Gene, and Louise. Like his son, Big Bob is a restaurateur who owns his own business called "Big Bob's Diner." He's shown to be a tough loving father towards his own son, as shown in flashbacks. Since his pre-teens, Big Bob has been very controlling of Bob and has put him to work most of the time. He enjoys line-dancing, which he practices at the gay bar next to his diner.

Regular customers at Bob's Burgers

Bob's Burgers features regular ups and downs in customer volume, but two loyal customers help keep the restaurant open.

• Theodore "Teddy" (voiced by Larry Murphy) – Teddy is a talkative, kind-hearted, burly contractor who is a loyal and regular customer of Bob's Burgers. Although he is now overweight and bald, Teddy was attractive, had long blonde hair, and was physically fit in his youth. He was attractive enough to be cast as a lifeguard in a 1980s exploitation movie The Deepening, filmed at Wonder Wharf. However, an incident during filming took such a psychological toll on him that he resorted to overeating and gained a substantial amount of weight. Teddy is extremely fond of the Belchers and wants to be a part of the family. He considers Bob to be his “bestie” while Bob has mixed feelings. He seems to have assumed Bob’s last name is “Burgers” or “Burger” due to the restaurant name. Teddy is divorced, lives alone and dates infrequently. He was once married to a woman named Denise who treated him poorly and cheated on him regularly (According to Teddy, he and Denise had a threesome with a man named Ray which consisted of him just watching Ray and Denise have sex). Denise was highly critical of Teddy and once told him his head looks like a butt which, he explained, is why he always wears a beanie. Their marriage ended when Denise left Teddy for a man who is interested in boats and owns a waterside bar called “The Schoon Hound” where she works as a waitress. In the episode “Thanks-Hoarding”, it is revealed that Teddy is a hoarder due to childhood trauma and develops intense body odor, which he calls “panic sweats” when he becomes anxious. Long-winded at times, Teddy frequently tells needlessly detailed stories about mundane situations that usually bore the listener. While he is known to eat nearly anything that is offered to him (on one occasion, he ate a piece of a sponge Bob handed to him and, according to Linda, a receipt), Bob's hamburgers seem to be among his favorite foods. In the episode "Friends with Burger-fits", Teddy learns that his daily consumption of Bob's burgers and French fries has caused him to develop extremely high cholesterol. Generally mild-mannered and affable, Teddy participates in on-going therapy sessions as he sometimes has angry, violent outbursts over minor incidents which he instantly regrets often causing him to burst into tears and apologize.

• Mort (voiced by Andy Kindler) – Mort is a mortician and the owner of the "It's Your Funeral" funeral home next to the restaurant and also a regular customer of Bob's Burgers. He is a little odd and has a stereotypically morbid sense of humor. Mort is single, wears an obvious toupee, and lives in a stylishly decorated apartment above his funeral home. He is good friends with Bob and Teddy and has cared for the Belcher children on occasion. He has also acted as the Belcher family driver when Tina crashed Bob's car. Mort has a generally good sense of humor about the macabre questions to which he is often subjected regarding his job. His name is Latin for "dead" or "death", a playful nod to the fact that he works in a funeral home. He hires a Borat impersonator for his mother's 86th birthday party.

Pesto family

• Jimmy Pesto Sr. (voiced by Jay Johnston) – Jimmy Pesto Sr., real surname Poplopovich, is the antagonist of the series. He is the owner of the Italian themed restaurant across the street called "Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria", which is much more popular than "Bob's Burgers". Although of eastern European descent he goes by the Italian-sounding name of Pesto, presumably to increase the appeal of his restaurant; he and his family members are invariably referred to by the Pesto last name. He is the father of Jimmy Pesto, Jr., Andy, and Ollie, and is Bob's personal rival. Their feud often seems to border on stalking each other and occasionally descends into violence. Their families actually get along well and apart from a few isolated incidents, neither of their businesses actually endanger the other. This is in part because Bob's burgers are genuinely better than the food Jimmy serves, which is often described as being of sub-par quality. In one episode where Jimmy tries to outdo Bob by serving burgers, he can be seen weeping in the middle of the night, knowing that the ruse won't last; in another episode, Jimmy competes in a burger cook-off against Bob and a celebrity chef and his "Oregano Burger" is poorly received. It is revealed in "The Belchies" that he and his children's mother are divorced; she has not yet been seen. He has dark brown hair worn in a pompadour style.

• Jimmy Pesto Jr. (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) – Almost always referred to as "Jimmy Junior", Jimmy Pesto, Jr. is the oldest son of Jimmy Pesto. Jimmy works as the busboy at Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria. He is Tina's classmate, love interest and on-again, off-again boyfriend. Tina has a crush on him and tries her best to get his attention (slow dancing with him, forcibly sharing a pasta strand with him, etc.). He is close friends with Zeke, has a lateral lisp, and loves dancing. He appears to be among the most popular students at Wagstaff Middle School, though many students turned against him in "The Millie-Churian Candidate" after Louise bungled his class president campaign. He is also prone to envy; in "Stand By Gene" he resents Gene for becoming friends with Zeke, and in "Two for Tina" he feuds with Tina's love interest Josh despite their on-and-off relationship. Jimmy Junior has gone on dates with Tina, and Louise said they were dating, however, Jimmy Junior tends to forget this from time to time. Louise calls him "brace face" in "The Belchies," implying he wears braces, but these are never seen, aside from in his fifth-grade school picture in "The Millie-Churian Candidate". He has dirty-blond hair, light skin, and a tall stature. Jimmy Junior typically wears a pale-yellow, short-sleeved shirt; a denim, blue, small, opened vest over his shirt; black-grey sweatpants; and short, white sneakers. He also has his father's pompadour hairstyle, but not the hair color, as in, Jimmy Senior has dark-brown hair and Jimmy Junior has dirty-blond hair.

• Andy and Ollie Pesto (voiced by Sarah Silverman and Laura Silverman) – Andy and Ollie Pesto are Jimmy Pesto, Sr.'s blond twin sons who are the younger brothers of Jimmy Pesto, Jr. They are very childish and care for each other a lot, experiencing extreme anxiety whenever they must be separated – at one point they imply that their backpacks will miss each other when separated and are nearly run over because they were trying to carry each other across the street. They are classmates and good friends with Louise despite the rivalry between their fathers (as well as Louise's tendency to take advantage of them, such as in "Art Crawl"). Ollie and Andy's intense fondness for each other mimics that of Walter and Perry from Loren Bouchard's previous animated television series Home Movies. The main difference in the Pesto twins is their hairstyles. Andy has side-swept feathered bangs similar to Bob, and Ollie has hair that sticks onto the very top of his head like a palm tree.

Wagstaff School staff

The following characters work at Wagstaff School:

• Mr. Frond (voiced by David Herman) – Phillip J. Frond is the "self-certified" school counselor of Wagstaff School. He feels underused and underappreciated at the school, since nobody really likes him, due to his uptight and strict personality, and his advice is never sought after. He occasionally concocts harebrained schemes to advance his own career, which usually backfire spectacularly. He was born in 1971, making him 47 years old as of the episode The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets. Mr. Frond is a vegetarian and has a small tongue. He also knits religiously, talks to his mother on the phone every day, and has multiple cats.

• Coach Blevins (voiced by Larry Murphy) – Coach Blevins is the gym teacher and wrestling team's coach who wears shatterproof goggles. He is also the 4th-grade science teacher, where he teaches the class how to make a battery out of a penny and a potato, and has the class dissect bananas. He usually settles gym class disputes by having the students wrestle. He takes salsa dancing classes and briefly had his driver's license suspended, forcing him to go to traffic school.

• Mr. Ambrose (voiced by Billy Eichner) – Mr. Ambrose is the sarcastic and apathetic school librarian and the cheerleading coach who has a penchant for dramatism, sometimes coming to verbal blows with Mr. Frond. He also practices witchcraft. He is writing a prequel to Mrs. Doubtfire called "Mrs. Doubtwater."

• Mr. Branca (voiced by David Herman) – Mr. Branca is an immigrant janitor from an unknown country. Back in his country, he was its President before a coup d'état occurred. He is talented at ribbon dancing, has a keen sense for fashion (despite wearing the same custodian uniform everywhere), and considers Tina to be his best friend, frequently gossiping with her about the other students.

• Mr. Grant (voiced by Will Forte) – Mr. Grant is the school A/V teacher and runs the school news program. He is known for his five W's of News: "Wow! Woohoo! Way hot! Weird! and What the --!" He also encourages Gene and Courtney to read the morning announcements to motivate the student body in the morning, since Ms. LaBonz puts them to sleep with her announcements.

• Miss Jacobson (voiced by Melissa Bardin Galsky) – Miss Jacobson is the 8th-grade teacher who is usually seen teaching Tina's class which often includes Jimmy Jr., Jocelyn, Tammy Larsen, and Zeke. She is usually mild-mannered and is described by Bob as "ridiculously attractive" in "Two for Tina".

• Miss LaBonz (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) – Miss LaBonz is a 4th-grade teacher who is usually teaching Louise's class which also includes Andy and Ollie Pesto, Millie Frock, Hogarth Haber, Regular-Sized Rudy, and Wayne. She has a habit of stealing supplies from the school. She is also a heavy smoker, and she plays a game on her smartphone called Dippin' Chips.

• Miss Merkin (voiced by Brian Huskey) – Matilda Merkin is the longtime music teacher at Wagstaff. She is a very proficient musician, competent at multiple instruments including drums, ukulele, piano, and guitar. She is supportive of Gene's talent, defecting to his guerrilla Die Hard musical after being replaced in the school musical. In "Itty Bitty Ditty Committee," Gene enlists her to help him improve his musicianship, but he gives up forty-five seconds later, because of the commitment required. She has a sister named Sheila who is a stage actress.

• Miss Selbo (voiced by Sarah Baker) – Miss Selbo is the school receptionist. She gossips about the students constantly. She frequents the teacher's lounge after school and pretends she is a teacher, using Miss Jacobson's mug. She also has psychopathic tendencies, stalking her ex-boyfriend Martin for a year after their breakup, sleeping outside his house, urinating on his mail, and stealing his dog.

• Miss Schnur (voiced by Sarah Silverman) – Miss Schnur is the secretary to Principal Spoors who is usually distracted by kids who are sent to Spoors. She has a pet cat, is a fan of Penny Marshall, David Schwimmer, and Brendan Fraser, and is devoted to her nephew, Nathan. She has trouble going #2 at school.

• Ms. Twitchell (voiced by Tymberlee Hill) – Ms. Twitchell is the 6th-grade homeroom teacher. Her students include Gene, Courtney Wheeler, Lenny DeStefano, Peter Pescadero, Rupa and Julie. She is divorced and believes that Gene has a crush on her. Mr. Grant inelegantly tries to make a pass at her in "The Gene and Courtney Show".

Wagstaff School students

The following students attend Wagstaff school with the Belcher siblings and the Pesto siblings:

• Alex Papasian (voiced by Thomas Middleditch) - Alex Papasian is a Wagstaff School student and one of Gene's best friends. In "Cheer Up, Sleepy Gene" the pair bonded over their mutual dislike of gym class resulting in Alex inviting Gene to his first sleepover. In "Roller? I Hardly Know Her!", more of his relationship with Gene is established including that they like to play RoboWizard Quest in the basement of the restaurant.

• Chloe Barbash (voiced by Stephanie Beatriz) - Chloe Barbash is a student in Coach Blevins' science class with Louise. In "Bob Actually", it is revealed that Regular-Sized Rudy has an unrequited crush on her. She uses a very fragrant and pleasingly aromatic shampoo.

• Choo-Choo (voiced by Brian Posehn) – Choo-Choo is a student at Wagstaff School and Gene's nemesis. He constantly annoys Gene whenever he tells a joke by saying the punchline before him. He first appeared in "Spaghetti Western and Meatballs" and got his name for saying "choo choo" every time he got into a fight.

• Courtney Wheeler (voiced by David Wain) – Gene's on-and-off girlfriend; an annoying girl who likes Gene in the episode "The Unbearable Like-Likeness of Gene". Gene begins going out with her when he is stuck with answering if he "like-likes" her, so he pairs up with her temporarily. She has long, wavy-curly plantinum-blond hair in two, thick pigtails and olive skin. Courtney usually wears a lavender-purple tank top; a short, violet-purple skirt; light-purple flat shoes, and a gold necklace whose heart-shaped pendant she likes to put in her mouth. Gene's plans were to break up with her until he meets her father Doug who he believes can launch his career in writing jingles. He breaks up with her at her birthday party after she interrupts one of his performances, and she retaliates by upstaging him by staging a musical based on the film Working Girl. In "The Gene & Courtney Show", they reconcile and kindle a romance.

• Darryl (voiced by Aziz Ansari) – Darryl is a student at Wagstaff School who likes video and arcade games, comic books, robots, and going to the science museum.

He drives around town in a golf cart and throws firecrackers at people.
