•
John Candy (voiced by himself) - The fictional version of the actor who is the proprietor of Camp Candy. John is a friendly and big-hearted yet clumsy
everyman with a strong sense of humor, as he jokes around, makes puns, and loves to engage in witty banters with those who antagonize him in almost every episode. In nearly every episode, John encounters a problem that may cause Camp Candy to be shut down by either the schemes of Rex DeForest III or outside forces, but he always manages to somehow end the day coming out on top. John is noticeably large and portly as he is always eager to eat, yet he is depicted as being in good shape and is often thought of as being very attractive, even "handsome" by many female characters, mostly by Molly. He has shaggy dirty blonde hair and typically wears an army green shirt with pockets in the front over a white T-shirt, a whistle around his neck, army green shorts, and brown boots. However, he has been seen in a variety of outfits. • Nurse Molly March (voiced by
Valri Bromfield) - The nurse at Camp Candy. Molly is highly qualified as she regularly goes out of her way to treat any medical problem no matter how serious or trivial. Unfortuately, she can come across as being naive and overeager, and has a strong tendency to have her head in the clouds, as opposed to the more down-to-earth John, and being easily swayed, as well as possessing a number of unusual pastimes, such as sharing John's love of
polka music, i.e. the
Shmenge Brothers. Molly is shown to have an obvious crush on John as she frequently flirts with him while tends to his frequent injuries; John, aware of Molly's feelings for him, is shown to have feelings for her in return from time to time, as they start dating near the end of the series. Molly has shoulder-length blonde hair and a rather prominent nose (which John refers to as "a nose that wouldn't quit"), and mostly wears bright red earrings, matching lipstick, and a white nurse's uniform with matching nurse shoes and knee-high socks, even when not on duty. • Robin (voiced by Danielle Fernandes in season 1,
Cree Summer in season 2,
Candi Milo in season 3) - A nature lover who is known for her sweet, shy and sensitive personality. She is very good at understanding and communicating with animals and loves being out in the wilderness, taking in all the nature around her. She hates to see any environment in danger or any animal hurt and wants to help everyone anyway she can. She is an African-American with her black hair tied in twin buns and wears a t-shirt with the letter
C, shorts, white socks and gray sneakers. • Alexandra "Alex" (voiced by
Chiara Zanni in season 1-2,
E.G. Daily in season 3) - A tomboy who has a huge enjoyment of camping and sports. She is described as brash, outgoing and extremely courageous, never letting anything scare her. She also likes to take up the role as leader. However, Alex's leader senses can make her way too bossy. Physical activity is her favorite hobby and always loves to participate in races, sports and always desires to have lots of exercise in her life. She has red hair that is tied in two pigtails and wears a t-shirt with the letter C on it, shorts and brown boots. • Vanessa (voiced by
Willow Johnson in season 1-2,
Gail Matthius in season 3) - An extremely girly fashionista who comes from a rich family. She is very new to camping as she had been used to a wealthy environment. As such, Vanessa can come across as being very self-centered and entitled, speaking in a rather haughty manner while still being supportive, helpful and charismatic. Fashion is her specialty and, like Molly, she takes pride in her appearance and never goes anywhere without her beauty essentials. She has long brown hair (in the comics her hair is auburn), with a portion of it held up in a whale spout ponytail and wears a t-shirt with the letter C on it, shorts, pink socks and lavender sneakers. • Richard "Rick" (voiced by Andrew Seebaran in season 1-2,
E.G. Daily in season 3) - A prankster who comes from a family line of comedy. Like John, Rick is notable for his easygoing attitude as well as his comedic nature. He loves to pull pranks on the campers and John just as much as he loves to act cool. However, Rick can get to the point of irritating and can even be very reckless at times. He has blonde hair as well as green and pink shorts. • Bartholomew "Binky" (voiced by Tony Ail in season 1-2,
E.G. Daily in season 3) - The youngest of the campers and Iggy's younger brother. Binky is described as a daredevil and loves to seek out an adventure. He's very energetic, optimistic and very curious, always wanting to know more about the world without him. However, being the youngest he can get very careless about his safety, as well as coming across as a bit naive, dragging the ever-reluctant Iggy along with him. He has short ash brown hair that is covered by a blue cap turning the other way. • Iggy (voiced by Tom Davidson in season 1-2,
Katie Leigh in season 3) - A timid, high-strung, clumsy, and accident-prone boy who fears practically everything and was the most hesitant about attending Camp Candy, that is, until John showed him what fun summer camp can be. Despite having such an reluctant attitude, Iggy is known for being the smartest camper due to his intense knowledge of the wild even moreso than John. He is Binky's older brother and has short ash brown hair with glasses. • Botch (voiced by
Brian George) - The camp
chef who debuts in the second season. He was an immigrant Czechoslovak who spoke with an Eastern European accent. When not tending to his duties in the camp's kitchen, Botch was seen practicing his shots at basketball. • Harry Gallagher (voiced by
Maurice LaMarche) - Camp Candy's counselor-in-training who is tends to be a self-serving brown-noser which annoys him quite a bit, yet in typical John Candy fashion, he treats Harry very well and lets him in on all the fun and hilarity at Camp Candy. • Rex DeForest III (voiced by
Lewis Arquette) - The primary antagonist of the series. DeForest is an extremely self-centered and greedy businessman and entrepreneur who openly hates John as he had built his Camp Candy on his property per an agreement they had made years ago. His plans often involved getting Camp Candy shut down or constructing nearby it. These plans always fail for various reasons (or by John and the campers' interference) and Camp Candy would continue to stay open. • Chester (voiced by Danny Mann) - DeForest's henchman. He was a dimwitted
greaser who always followed Rex's orders. One episode had him revert to his childhood after falling into a "fountain of youth", which Rex takes advantage of to use Chester as a kid to join Camp Candy in order to cause trouble. However, he has a change of attitude and starts to think for himself once John and the Camp Candy kids accepted him. • Robert "Bob" Nayles (voiced by
Jess Harnell in season 3) - The head counselor of another summer camp called Camp Kickboot which is at the other side of the lake. Bob's personality is nearly the opposite of John's; he is self-centered, brash, snide, bossy, demanding, short-tempered, and very hot-headed. Nayles is like a drill sergeant and his camp is like a military school. He can, however, be cowardly when faced with real danger that he can't handle, in which John uses his own skills to save him. == Episodes ==
