The goal is to achieve comedic delivery in the style of Bob's Burgers, Family Guy and Modern Family, last of which, in that the characters occasionally do confessionals throughout the episodes!

Charlie is a young adult with a child's creativity and spirit. He's known to be incredibly sarcastic, sassy, immature and very outspoken, often speaking his mind and acting on impulse, which tends to land him in hot water. Despite that, Charlie is very loyal and caring, though it may not always come off very genuine. He loves Graphic Novels and his intelligence tends to vary from stupid to genius on occasion (Idiot-Savant).
Personality reference: Shazam/Billy Batson (DC Universe)
[Leo asks Charlie why he's trying to read]
"Because apparently, Luna is into guys that are all literate and shit. I... haaaate books with a passion, Leo. They serve NO educational purpose!"
"Did you say Hercules?! I love that guy! Ah, and that cool-looking winged mule of his, what was its name again?! Like Peggy or...? Was that it? No-no-no-no, wait... that's dumb. Peggy's not a mule's name! Especially, not back in the olden times of 1999, am I right?!"
[CONFESSIONAL]
"These graphic novels are amazing! Beautifully drawn pictures on every page, action-packed battles, very little dialogue? Hells yeah! Ya know, I've always loooved books with a passion!"
[Leo: You put him in a medical induced coma...]
"Uh, I think you mean, a sabbatical from work?! Ok, if anything, I did him a favor! It'll give him some time to re-evaluate his life. I mean, come on, a mail-man?! Grow up, dude...""You seem surprised about my new vocabulary skills. [Acting haughty, proud, snooty] Understandable. Ya know, when you use words you don't know the meaning of on a regular basis, eventually you're bound to hit the nail on the head at some point and actually get it right. That's why they call it, 'Obesity.'"
[CONFESSIONAL] "Pfft, Evan is trippin' on major kibbles if he thinks I'm just gonna go and take some random ass class with him! I mean, really, ya know! If I wanted to ruin my life, I would've married, ya know, Britney Spears during that whole 2007 meltdown. Which in all honesty though, makes a lot more sense now that I've reached adulthood..."
*Unfortunately, the original voice actor "Sirsmiley," had to bow out, sadly. And I'm looking for a voice very to similar to theirs! Be sure to use their audition as a reference: https://www.castingcall.club/auditions/464702
Evan, though the smallest and youngest, is the smartest of the group. He acts as the voice of reason and is very responsible, almost like the parent for the others (Excluding Leo) and tends to be a little angsty and neurotic. Because of his smarts, he's prone to be arrogant, which is met with jokes and anger from the rest of the gang. He is unfortunately the receiver of many back-of-the-head smacks, mostly from Charlie. Evan is usually seen reading a book.
[Charlie: Yes, I have a bank account, so what?!] "Uh, you have absolutely NO source of income, Charlie... No job. No inheritance. Not even an allowance. Which spurs suspicion as to how you have a bank account with actual money in it."
"Ok, look! We're here to pay respect to a former neighbor, so I expect everyone to be on their best behaviors and not cause a scene... Charlie, we may have to drug you again."
[CONFESSIONAL]"Cell phones... Ugh, as if these guys didn't already have attention deficit issues or cognitive faculty deterioration... hell, common sense got thrown out the window last week. A fire broke out right in the middle of the living room. Spawned out of nowhere. No one said a thing. Charlie took a picture of it with his phone and uploaded it to Insta-Groom asking people to call 911..."
Gigi is a very rude girl and comes off antagonistic at most times. She tends to be a loud-speaker, usually spewing out some kind of insult and is known for having "major attitude," resulting in having a bit of a rivalry with Charlie, as both of their over-the-top personalities tend to clash. She's very sassy and her diva-type personality tends to instigate problems. She wishes to be a fashion designer/model.
"Ugghhh! Screw this! Education gets you nowhere... all it does is just make us pretty girls look stupid. I mean what the hell does fashion design have to do with a freakin' python theorem?!"
[Catches someone in her room] "Ew, HEY! What the hell do you have all over your face?! Did you eat my make-up-- [Facepalms] Ugh! God, you're an idiot... and those fall colors do your face NO favors, now get out!"
[CONFESSIONAL]"Why... the hell... do I put up with these idiots?! Well, I know why... because they're practically like family... and the rent is cheap, but still! Ugh, you know, my homegirl Tamika just got a new place not too far away and she asked me if I wanted to move in. It was tempting, but then I remembered squirrels are all about getting nuts... of ALL kind... make of that what you will."
"Yo, don't pay him no attention, man! That Fernando and the rest his "gatos" are all talk! Don't let him just step on you like that! Trust me, the dude's a little pu-- uh, pansy. Sorry, kids..."
"Man, whoever created Algebra must've been off his ass on drugs, look! There's numbers AND letters, like actual words that I don't even know the meaning of! And here's where I really get confused... I thought FOIL was used for food. Do my cooking classes fail me? Or have I failed it?!"
[CONFESSIONAL] "You know, he may have a point. Dreams are like tennis balls, ya know? And you just gotta fetch 'em! Unless, ya know... life tries to trick you by pretending to throw you a dream, but then you think, maybe life just wants to see you make fool out of yourself... Nah! Life wouldn't be that jacked-up! Right...?"
Leo is the oldest of the gang, thus being the most mature. He's usually very deep-voiced, yet soft-spoken and lethargic, sometimes brooding and occasionally comes off unfriendly, though it's unintentional. Like Charlie, he tends to be blunt, however he gets lumped into silly situations against his will at times. Leo has a distaste for Murray and even more so, his dead ex-wife.
"Ugh... Charlie, that's a personal question. You don't ask that from people you just met, let alone, just insulted..."
"Yeah, um, I just checked the online payment bill for these classes... they're $300. Yeah, so, not only am I NOT a Politician, you know, like I was studying to be... Uh, we're now in debt to the very government that I once wished to be apart of... So, ya know, hurray for the education system..."
[CONFESSIONAL] "Murray is a stray we've had the displeasure of knowing for about a year now. He's loud, bothersome, crazy... and seeing as he keeps getting into our house without our knowledge... probably an ex-convict. Long story short, you ever met somebody that makes you want to fall into a coma...?"
"Ey! Don't crack wise with me, I fought for this planet during the Mars Wars in 1842!"
"Why you sick sonuva bitch... we're at a funeral and you don't offer me something to eat?!"
Marv is a friend of Charlie's who is known as the "Idea Man." Marv is very charismatic, eccentric and untrustworthy. His ideas, however, are usually dismissed as he's known to get people into trouble. He's always looking for a way to make money or build himself up in the world. One day, he'll want to be a business mogul and try to invest in an invention, the next he wants to be a whale tamer to be able to brew the most endearing perfume. (Similar to Kramer from "Seinfeld")
"Guess what, peasants! I have just stumbled across the MOTHER of all gold mines! We're gonna be so rich that if we went to dinner with Oprah, she'd make US pick up the check!"
"Fellas, fellas, fellas, come on now! I promise you! This won't end with SWAT teams like last time! If I had pinkies, I'd swear!
Rory is a friend of Charlie's and probably the most chill, life-loving person ever. Whatever the situation, Rory is down to participate. He tends to see the good in people and things. Despite his willingness to go along with most things, Rory is quite level-headed, knowledgeable and logical, even if he's doing something that completely defies all those traits. Most people tend to like him. Despite his appearance, Rory is actually a teenager.
"I don't know... on one hand, it sounds kinda stupid, but on the other hand, it can have some really fruitful results... you know, if it miraculously plays out well! Ehh, I'm in!"
"You guys ever notice that I can't get drunk when we're drinking? I don't know... it's like the beers go right through me or something... but to be honest, I can't really taste it anyway. It's weird."
Flynn is a friend of Charlie's who is a huge instigator. As a literal and metaphorical Alien, he tends to get offended when people say things to or about him. Even the smallest, most innocent comments can result in Flynn going off on a small rant and ending it with accusing the person of being "Racist!" Flynn, for some reason, talks with an city accent, but no one knows how he picked it up. (Flynn should speak with a either a Boston or Brooklyn/New York type accent!!)
"Ohhh! So, Mr. Big-shot over here thinks he knows all about alien suffrage now. Like he wrote book report on it or somethin. What, did ya write your dissertation on alien lifeforms and become the world's leading expert on Alien emotions?! Racist!"
"Ahhhh don't know... He's lookin' a little suspect to me. Over there grillin' us like we stole one of his hookers or somethin'! If I wasn't being weighed down from that 70 ounce milkshake, I'd waltz over there and knock his freakin' head off."
Mary Beth is a neighbor to the Dogs. She is VERY soft-spoken, ditzy and a tad awkward. Not one to like conflict, she will usually try to diffuse the situation or worry about it from afar. Mary Beth tries to please everyone and is usually treated like a doormat because of it, although she's oblivious to it and doesn't seem to mind. She's tends to be a follower or a pawn in other people's escapades. (Actress, Kaitlin Olson "Quagmire's Sister from Family Guy" inspiration)
"Um, don't want to interrupt anything, just throwing it out there, but uh... a fire just broke out in the living room and I'm not sure if I should engage or not... I mean, it's getting big really quick, and damaging a lot of the furniture, but I'm no firefighter, so..."
"Oh hey, that sounds like fun! A battle between the sexes is just what we need in this society right now. We can work out issues and differences and hopefully come together as true equals! I don't see how this could possibly go wrong!"
"Excuse me, do you mind?! I'm trying to get a tan over hear with my new solar-reflecting tanning visors and your utter lack of common sense is LITERALLY covering me in your shadow of ignorance. So, if you'd please..."
"Uh, I'd thank you NOT to look at my house for an extended amount of time, as my beautiful abode deserves to be looked upon by those who can actually see colors, thank you very much!"
"MÃralo, los perros! What exactly brings you pups around this neck of the barrio?"
Órale, Hector... why don't we show these perritos why they don't just walk up on our turf like that!"
Heidi is the Librarian where Charlie reads his Graphic Novels. She's a tomboy who's very well-read and intelligent. She's also very patient and caring, especially with Charlie, even with his silly antics. (Light Asian-accent preferred!)
Yeah, of course! You seem like the kinda dude who'd enjoy a riveting tale about the triumph of the human spirit!
(Light chuckle) You know, on second thought... I think the Graphic Novel genre might be right up your alley.
[As Charlie is about to jump through the window, heroically for the 2nd time]
Oh-ah, actually, t-they've asked me to tell you not to do that, the damage from last time was... pretty epic... (chuckle)
Mr. Oba is neighbor of the dogs. He's very loud, exuberant and comes off with an aggressive manor, but means no actual harm. Mr. Oba finds humor in other people's misfortune and likes to play pranks. He's usually giving someone the business with his broken-English disses.
He also has a teenage daughter named Jessica. Mr. Oba tries to relate to his daughter and other by conforming to trends and new lingo, much to his daughter's dismay. (NIGERIAN/GHANAIAN accent required!)
"HA-HA-HA! Look at yoself! Running like chicken with head cut off! Ha-HA! Winning!"
"Jessica! You touch my brownie, I send you to boarding camp!"
"What is wrong wit yo face?! Crazier den glue! Look like Mariah Scary! HA-HA-HA! Now you got served! Check please! HA-HA!"
Liam is the "as a matter of fact' type person. He keeps things simple and to the point, sometimes coming off a bit too blunt, though unintentionally. He's a neighbor of the dogs and rather normal compared to the rest of the neighborhood.
[Spif Poshnickers complaining about his house's re-sale value]
Oh, shut up, Poshnickers. How about the time you turned your house into a brothel?!
[Referring to a weird-looking creature]
[To Evan] Poshnickers has $25 saying it's a creature from the black lagoon. Holly didn't bet, but claims that it might be a stray. And apparently, we have a new bid for "Fantastic Beast." [Now, To Oba] Now, how much are we putting for that one, Oba?
Tamika is Gigi's homegirl. She's confident, wild and fun-loving. She's known to throw shade and talk smack about people behind their backs and in their face. Tamika has a very outgoing personality; willing to fight someone over something simple, taking off her earrings to do-so, noticeably being "extra" in places that don't call for it and occasionally, trying to hit on men out of her league. Tamika is that friend that can't mind her own business. (Tamika should speak with a ghetto/diva-like attitude, preferably voiced by an African-American woman/Actress, Niecy Nash inspiration)
"Ha-haaa! Girl, I got 15,000 men already! OOOOH, look at the booty on that cutie! Lemme just slip him my number before he asks me for it!"
"Wait a minute, hold up! Ain't that the same chickenhead who was talkin' aaall kinds of mess about you after you showed up to her birthday bash in a lambo? Mmm-mmm, so sad these days, sistahs gotta tear each other down when they make it in this world. Damn shame..."
Drop a small demo no more than 30 seconds with a couple different voices if possible!
