Main Characters

Marty Weaver

Marty Weaver (portrayed by Lenny Venito) is the father of the Weaver family. Marty learns to befriend the Bird-Joyner-Kersees, particularly Larry, despite his strong dislike for the family at first. He is known for being lazy, and was in a rock band throughout high school.

Larry Bird

Larry Bird (portrayed by Simon Templeman) is the father of the Bird-Joyner-Kersee family and the leader of the alien community. He strongly attempts to fit in on Earth, often by learning about new holidays or television programs. His ultimate goal is to become one of the Sharks on Shark Tank.

Jackie Joyner-Kersee

Jackie Joyner-Kersee (portrayed by Toks Olagundoye) is the mother of the Bird-Joyner-Kersee family. She, like her husband, often attempt to fit in on Earth, which she describes is much more different than her home planet of Zabvronia.

Amber Weaver

Amber Weaver (portrayed by Clara Mamet) is the oldest daughter of the Weaver family. She has a generally pessimistic attitude towards mostly everything. For the majority of season 2, she was dating Reggie Jackson, her next door neighbor.

Reggie Jackson

Reggie Jackson (portrayed by Tim Jo) is the oldest son of the Bird-Joyner-Kersee family. He broke up with Amber midway through the second season due to his Zabvronian "soulmate," Jane.

Dick Butkus

Dick Beef Butkus (portrayed by Ian Patrick) is the youngest member of the Bird-Joyner-Kersee family. He is very strange, and at a certain point during the season experienced a strong love for a toaster.

Max Weaver

Max Weaver (portrayed by Max Charles) is the middle child of the Weaver family. He is very dumb, and made it to his school's spelling bee by spelling his last name, Weaver.

Abby Weaver

Abby Weaver (portrayed by Isabella Cramp) is the youngest child of the Weaver family. She is known for her sass toward her brother. Abby is one of the few members of the family who is able to talk to Amber without fear.
