Cast & Characters

 * Aubrey Plaza as Tina McCree/Doctor Toxin, one of the series' two protagonists and the main focus of it. She is a professional supervillain who is out to coquer the world and destroy her enemies. She is based on old Silver Age depictions of supervillains, such as that of DC Comics' Lex Luthor. She is highly eccentric, charismatic, and an expert in all fields of scientific study, but also suffers from an inflated ego and a tendancy towards anger.
 * Rainn Wilson as Max Fischer, Tina's boyfriend and the second of the series' protagonists. Throughout most of the series he is unemployed but is the caretaker of the house, being left to clean it up and cook meals for himself and Tina. He appears to have an obsession with social media, as he can often be seen on his phone, and a recurring gag throughout the series is how desensitized he is to the abnormal anticts Tina gets up to.
