Characters
* Todd (voiced by Ryan Hirakida) is a blue boy with five strands of hair. He likes to draw and eat macaroni and cheese in the bathtub. He is an energetic and bright young boy who enjoys creative hobbies and sports, and likes to read and make new things. His playful and kind personality leads him to easily make new friends, and his curiosity in getting to know others makes him fairly open-minded when it comes to what makes people different. He is very attached to his pet dog Benny, and often feels lonely if he is not around. There are times when Todd can be selfish if he really wants something, but he always learns right from wrong and makes up for it. At times he is also the voice of reason in the group, but is just as likely to act as zany as Pickle. His catchphrases include "Neato Mosquito", "Leaping Lima Beans", "Mighty Macaroni", "Awesome Possum", and "Hi, I'm Todd, and this is my world!"

He lives in a circus tent with a menagerie of circus animals (a pink elephant named Edith, a pink monkey trapeze artist named Estelle, a dancing bear named Brian and a lion named Greg). Pickle wants to have fun, and has many talents he learned from growing up in a circus. He is curious about new experiences and people, although he may be suspicious at first. He often worries about small things until he realizes that he should have just asked. His energetic and friendly personality allows him to easily bond with his friends and other people. He may not be the brightest of the group, but he is capable of helping out or coming up with zany ideas.

Nevertheless, she continues to search for new ideas. She cares for others, with an empathy that allows her to easily befriend anyone. Sophie loves to have fun and tries not to instantly judge others.
