Jarvis Raines (Kolton Stewart) is an average 14-year-old who becomes the CEO of company Knickknack Toys overnight after he sues them over a defective chemistry set that blows up his house. He recruits a diverse group of kids from his high school to help him run the company. Usually, something backfires when they are trying to develop a new toy. Before the end credits, there are usually advertisements showing Knickknack Toys' newest products, which are shown or often invented in said episode, as well as the company’s mascot, P. Everett Knickknack, telling the viewer that "The P stands for (word that begins with p)".

Charlie Storwick[1] as Piper Gray, a tech-savvy, sardonic goth who is hired by Jarvis as the Chief Technology Officer and is later promoted to vice president of the company. She has harbored romantic feelings for Jarvis since prior to being hired by him, which he eventually starts to reciprocate.
Harrison Houde[1] as Bowie Sherman, Jarvis' eccentric best friend who is hired in an unknown position before being placed in charge of the Joke and Prank Division. He is known to be quite incompetent as he mostly comes up with bad decisions that potentially endangers Knickknack Toys or his friends.
Sydney Scotia[1] as Geneva Hayes, a beautiful but dimwitted girl who "works" as the receptionist and Jarvis's personal executive assistant. Many of the boys at school are attracted to her, including Jarvis until he begins dating Piper. Despite her apparent lack of intelligence, she has a few hidden talents, such as being able to solve a Rubik's Cube faster than a robot.
Travis Turner[1] as Aster Vanderberg, a creative, confident, and fashion-forward student who becomes the chief design officer of Knickknack Toys. He is shown to be quite snobby at times due to his tendency to criticize anyone around him based on what they're wearing.
Dylan Playfair[1] as Malcolm "Knox" Knoxford III, an amateur extreme sports daredevil who is friendly and outgoing, but lacking in intelligence. He is recruited as the product safety tester and human crash test dummy.
Ellie Harvie[1] as Candace Wheeler / Mrs. Bubkes, the previous owner of Knickknack and the only adult in the main cast of characters. She refused to give Jarvis a settlement after selling him a defective chemistry set that blew up his house, leading the jury to award the company to Jarvis as compensation instead. Candace masquerades as Knickknack's janitor Mrs. Bubkes, an elderly woman from the fictional Eastern European country Meeskatania, to spy on and sabotage Jarvis and his friends in hopes of regaining control of the company. In the series finale, it is revealed that the cast had been aware of Mrs. Bubkes' true identity from the beginning, and had merely been pretending to go along with it for their own amusement.
Recurring
Russell Roberts[1] as P. Everett Knickknack (Season 1 for human version), the original owner of Knickknack Toys since 1943 who pops out of nowhere one day. Everyone thinks he is a fraud trying to steal the company, especially Bowie, who thinks he is Candace. Even though he was proven innocent, it is unknown whether or not he is an impostor. Throughout the show, he and his cartoon counterpart use a running gag to say words and sentences that start with the letter 'P' because the 'P' in "P. Everett Knickknack" is unknown.
Mmmboing is a rubber bouncing ball that was created by Bowie in the pilot and has not stopped bouncing since. Mmmboing has become a running gag in the series appearing somewhere in almost every episode.
Nils Hognestad[4] as Mr. Gournisht (Season 1–2), a recurring character that appears in "Lobster Trap", "Flycycle", and "Rocket with a Pocket". He is a Meesketanian-born man who is fluent in both Meesketanian and English. Mr. Gournisht is deeply in love with Mrs. Bubkes (Candace's alter-ego) but has no interest in Candace Wheeler. He works as an astronaut, working on the "Meeska-foot".
Chelsea Miller as Adelaide (Season 2-3), a girl from an orphanage that Candace used to fake a home video of her alter-ego Mrs. Bubkes as a child and later decided to adopt because they have a lot in common. The adoption agency did not allow Candace to adopt Adelaide due to her bad reputation, so she disguises herself as Mrs. Bubkes to officially adopt her.
