Characters

 * Brian (voiced by Freddie Highmore) is the leader of the trio. He is highly intelligent, level-headed, mature, and well-mannered. He is an English immigrant from London; his family moved to the US when he was 11 years old. Brian is often shown collecting intelligence or constructing various traps for villains. His name and appearance are based on Queen guitarist Brian May.
 * Jermaine (voiced by Phil LaMarr) is an African-American who is Brian’s best friend. He is tall, athletic, and strong. Jermaine has a love for sports and a large appetite. His foods of choice are mostly junk food, including (but not limited to) barbecue bacon burgers, New York-style pizza and southern fried chicken. His name and appearance are based on Jermaine Jackson of the Jackson 5 (later the Jacksons).
 * Jessica (voiced by Janice Kawaye) is an Asian-American girl who is Brian’s next door neighbor and schoolmate, and his complete opposite. She is lazy, cynical, narcissistic, and hot-tempered, but she has a good heart. She can also be very jumpy and squeamish at times, much to Brian’s dismay. Jessica is extremely hypersexual and flirtatious, although most of the boys she hits on just ignore her. She is confident about her shapely body and often wears short shorts and tank tops; it is stated in one episode that her legs never get cold. Her name and appearance are based on Jessica Jung of Girls’ Generation, particularly with blonde hair.
 * Captain Walker (voiced by Tim Allen) is the CEO of the Universal Organization of Investigation (UOI). He is serious, level-headed, and authoritative. His name is based on the character Captain Walker from the album Tommy by the Who.
 * Bobby (voiced by Billy Crystal) is Captain Walker’s assistant who is almost the opposite. He is wise-cracking, happy-go-lucky, and tells jokes way to often. His name is based on folk rock musician Bob Dylan.
 * Tiffany (voiced by Mila Kunis) is a popular girl in school and Jessica’s best friend. Her name and appearance are based on 80s singer Tiffany Darwish, as well as Girls’ Generation’s Tiffany Young.
 * Satchel (voiced by Glenn Howerton) is a popular guy in school and Brian’s sworn enemy. He is arrogant, self-centered, ignorant and dishonest. He and Brian constantly get into arguments with each other. Even Jessica and Jermaine detest Satchel. His name and appearance are based on Steel Panther lead guitarist Satchel.
