Cast

  • Lizzy Greene as Dawn the butt!!!!
  • Casey Simpson as Ricky Harper the nerdy one of the group, always seen carrying a book or doing his homework. He is also a neat freak and a bit of a goody two shoes, although he occasionally tries to prove to Dawn and his brothers that he can bend rules as well.
  • Mace Coronel as Dicky Harper the easy-going quadruplet who cares a great deal about his appearance. He always takes the easy way out.
  • Aidan Gallagher as Nicky Harper the youngest of the Harper quadruplets. He is shown to be quite comedic, and easily confused.
  • Allison Munn as Anne Harper the mother of the Harper quadruplets.
  • Brian Stepanek as Tom Harper the father of the quadruplets. It is a running gag in the series that he cares more about his possessions than his children, but he loves his family and is a kid at heart.

They are all butts
