Characters
Main Characters
- Goofy (played by Lil' JJ) is the best friend of Jordan Lewis. He is planning a career in politics (just like the rest of his family) and does not like to make mistakes because they might end up on his "permanent record". He is counting on Jordan and his other friends to make him more "social". Even though he can't play, he somehow ended up on the basketball team in the episode "Air Jordan" because the coach thought that he was the only person who could take a charge so well. In No Justice, No Pants he was in favor of school uniforms.
- Joaquin (played by Eddy Martin)is the best friend of Jordan Lewis. He is planning a career in politics (just like the rest of his family) and does not like to make mistakes because they might end up on his "permanent record".
