List of characters in Fred's Head

This is a list of the main, recurrent, and one-time characters in Fred's Head.

Small note: While the main name of most of the characters doesn't change, their family name will change between the French and English version of the show.

Leblanc Family and neighbor

The Leblanc family live in an apartment inside the "My-neighbour-my-friend" coop. Other occupants of the building include Madame Butterfly, Benji and his mom and Anemone Worrynaut, the school psychologist.

*Fred Leblanc is a 16 year old teen who lives in an apartment with his family. He studies in St Judes High School and has many friends. He has a great imagination and always has a sarcastic thought for any situation. He has had some love interests, the main one being Anette Freeze-Dright, however he also has had some real love partners which are Fanny Cotton and Tamara Hartman. Gregory-Gilbert is his best friend. Fred always looks "blasé" and this causes him to be followed by the psychologist Anemone Worrynaut anywhere he goes at school. He has also shown courage at some moments. He likes to help people and can do anything to help a friend. Like many teens, he is sometimes angry at his parents who sometimes consider him immature or overprotect him. He has had some jobs, one at the Clown Shop owned by the Pyrowski Family and recently at the Café. He owns a collection of useless items that includes a lime green door, a rock (offered by GG), dwarf ears, and Fred already tried to add a cellphone-radio-razor to this collection. Fred hates parties though he organized two, a pink party and an Halloween party, each went horribly wrong. He disliked Christmas, as proven in A Christmas Carol. At the end of each episode, he tells a quote with a link to the synopsis of the episode. Sometimes other characters are part of the quote. His catchphrases are "Moldy" and "I think not". At the end of the last episode, he finally succeeds to tell his love for Anette to his not-anymore-secret crush and the two end up together. It is unknown if the second season, if there is one, will follow the relationship between Fred and Anette.

*Carol Schwartz is Fred's mother. Of an unknown age, she sometimes overprotects her two sons, Fred and Boon Mee. As a mother, she has the habit of telling Fred all kinds of tips whenever he quits home for an unknown time. She worked a long time for seniors and takes care of Madame Butterfly, the Leblanc's elderly neighbor. She is still a mother before everything, she is considered a second mother by Gregory-Gilbert Pyrowsky. She also created lots of traditions for Christmas. These include the yearly turkey, elf ears and hand-made decorations. She has a sister named Monique. A typical mother, she also has a tendency to do too much for her sons, which Paul always reminds her.

*Paul Leblanc is Fred's father. Unlike his wife, he is reserved and lets Fred experience things on his own. Carol always says that Paul gave Fred a too solid shell against real problems. He gets easily angered after the Beast. When he catches a cold, he is cured by Carol. He is also very smart, even brilliant, as depicted on the websites. A typical father.

*Boon Mee Leblanc is Fred's baby brother, adopted from Thailand. He mainly spends his time on Carol's or Paul's arms. In earlier episodes, he could only cry and giggle. Now he can say many words. He can name Fred (pronounced "Hed") and Madam Butterfly by their names. He also shows some kind of baby smartness.

*The Beast is the Leblanc family's cat. A psychotic, maybe enraged and certainly crazy cat. It is shown aggressive to people it doesn't lives with, which include the homeless man, GG, Penelope and Aunt Monique. He also likes to mark his territory.

*Aunt Monique is Carol's sister. Optimistic and highly feng shui, it has been hinted that it may be her fault if Fred is "blasé". She has appeared so far in three episodes, 1 as a cameo and 2 in a more important role. During the Christmas special, she meets the homeless man Fred brought home for the family party. They seemed to like each other, but it is not known if it went further. Monique likes the empty space, she feels alone with her feelings when she does so. She is also an adept of unbreakable plates and primal screams. Aunt Monique doesn't live with the family but really likes to visit a lot!

*Madam Butterfly The Leblanc family's Japanese neighbor, Madam Butterfly is pretty much Fred's grandmother. Now deceased, her husband was an actor of the Kabuki theater, playing a woman. She is of an advanced age, and certainly suffers from Alzheimers. She frequently forgets her own apartment and almost lives in the Leblanc family's. She is kind of a part of the family, since the Beast never scratches her dress nor bites. Of a great Japanese sageness, she frequently tells quotations such as "the old foot knows the path, while the young foot gets lost in the way". She also follows many feng shui traditions, one of them being "no shoes on the floor". Carol is taking care of her. She also believes in spiritism and tries to talk to her dead husband. She appears once in Fred's quotes.

Teenagers

Here are Fred's best friends, classmates and relations.

*Fabienne Ledger is an horror B-movie fan who studies at St Judes High School. She lives with her parents, who are never at home. Sometimes quick-tempered, she dreams of making bloody and gory horror movies. Cynical to death, she is also independent, anarchist, atypical and short fused. She hates the Hart trio (Penelope, Tamara and Jody) and Soya and constantly makes fun of them. Penelope Truehart gets on her nerves frequently. It has been hinted that she has had a relationship with Fred and that they had their first kiss together. It has also been hinted in the same joke that she is lesbian, something that becomes clearer in the following episodes of the season. She was brown haired before turning her hair color to red. Her parents never take time for her, so she learned to help herself. She hates all holidays due to the fact that she never spends them with family. She discovers by herself that she is allergic to latex in the episode "So Long Worrynaut". Fabienne has one know cousin called Fatima, who was romantically involved with GG for a short period.

*Gregory Gilbert Pyrowsky, aka GG, is Fred's official best friend who studies at St Judes High School. His family name implies that his family comes from Poland. GG is the weirdest character of the show with his unique appearance and high vocabulary. Round eyes and belly, strange haircut, big teeth, he is easily recognizable. GG has many dreams for his future, which he tells throughout the series: getting married, having who knows how many kids, breeding labradors, owning a central vacuum system and a powered car for his progeniture, a cottage, and many other things. His old sky-blue car is so old that it breaks anytime he drives it and by any means, a recurring in-joke during the series. It has already hit a tree, a phone booth, and a surgery clinic. He works at the clown shop, a place owned by his family. He has a dead uncle named Lazlo whose body is kept under the counter at the shop. When Fred dated Fanny Cotton, he was sure that she could replace Anette. He considers Carol Schwartz like a second mother. He won the President's underwear at the school fair. At Halloween, he disguised himself as as Fred and copied his catchphrases (moldy, I think not...). GG fell in love with 4 girls so far in the series: Fatima, Fabienne's cousin, Clementine, a blasé girl, Sophie Goodheart, Jody's sister, and finally Beatrice, who he met in Episode 5. Since none of these loves worked, he is still alone and desperately seeks the girl of his dreams, the one who will help him getting everything he ever wanted. In the episode "Blow Out Sale", he sings a song about his four loves.

*Benji John-Hooper is Fred's childhood friend and studies at St Judes High School. Now a muscular and powerful teen, Fred could beat him when they were younger. He has a girlfriend, Penelope. He loves to show his big muscles. He is also part of the school's basketball team. He loves Penelope a lot and gives her lots of small nicknames. Also, he will answer all her wishes, might it be a giant gift or a simple snack. Benji likes everything to be "simple" and thinks Fred always makes everything sound so complicated. Benji lives with his mom in the same apartment building as Fred's family.

*Penelope Truehart Leader of the "Hart" Trio, consisting of Penelope, Jody and Tamara, Penelope is also the dumbest and most naïve. A real airhead. She is totally in love with her "Benji-Poo" and always tries to fix Fred up with girls. Even though she always wants to be nice, she often insults people without realising it. She lives with her mom and her stepdad. Her favorite expressions are "fizz!" and "shooty!". Penelope is also obsessed with Panouk's sexual identity.

*Tamara Hartman Probably the nicest girl of the "Hart" trio, Tamara is reserved and shy. She works at the cafe where all the teenagers hang out. Her dad is Doctor Hartman. Throughout the series, it has become clear that Tamara is in love with Fred. Later in the series, Fred works with Tamara at the café where they experience mutual attraction. Their relationship continues during 4 episodes but soon, Fred has to choose between Tamara and his secret crush Anette. In the episode "The analgesic of apocalypse", a hospital bound Fred writes Tamara a letter telling her about his feelings for Anette. During the following episode while nursing her heartbreak she completely changes her look, however in the most recent episodes we haven't seen this new look.

*Jody Goodhart Definitely the nastiest girl in Saint-Judes Highschool, Jody completes the "Hart" trio. This red haired girl is mean whenever she gets the chance, sometimes with her own friends. She is single and jealous of Penelope who goes out with the hottest guy in school. She was also extremely jeaous of Tamara who dated Fred during 4 episodes. Jody lives with her dad and has a sister named Sophie that looks like a rock chick.

*Anette Freeze-Dright Mysterious and enigmatic, Anette is Fred's dream girl and Fabienne's best female friend. She has jet black hair, piercing eyes and a royal demeanor. Her wardrobe has a definite goth twist. She is passionate about her art, and is often seen painting or exposing her abstract pieces or self-portraits. Since she is not very expressive in general, it's hard to know if she notices Fred's attraction for her. They had a couple of interesting encounters that generally turned out to be somewhat catastrophic. Anette's Dad is an ambassador and her mom an ex-Bollywood star. She lives in a mansion in the upper-class part of the city and is sometimes seen going to school in a limo. Every time Fred tries to help her or express his feelings, something goes wrong and Anette leaves, angry. She had one known relationship with "William Intense", a conceptual artist with pink hair. But she broke up with him after he cheated on her with Jody Goodheart. (ep: "Spills of the heart"). In the very last episode, at the end, Fred finally expresses his love for Anette without anything going wrong and it ends the season with a kiss.

*Soya Green She's the student with the biggest environmental conscience in St Judes. She's always eager to protest, demonstrate, rebuke and lecture each time someone so much as looks at a dandelion funny. That's why she tends to get on the nerves of some students, particularly Fabienne. She once organised a protest against Anemone Worrynaut's reforms for a "happier life" in the school. (ep: "In the Pink"). Using her journalistic experience, Soya also helped Fred trap a greedy health inspector who wanted to close down the the Pyrowski's Clown Shop. (ep: "Business is Business). She hasn't appeared since.

*Nino O'Neil This kid is trapped in a spacesuit because he's allergic to absolutely everything in the animal and plant kingdoms, including minerals. At St Judes, he is the ultimate reject. He has a little trouble making friends because he quickly becomes very invasive. One of his goals in life is to finally kiss a girl on the lips. He almost never speaks. He once became Fred's friend, though GG was jealous of this.

*Panook Titouk The school enigma! The long haired, long limbed Panook is a quiet and polite teen. One of the goals of the students at Saint Judes (especially Penelope) is to find out if Panook is in fact a guy or a girl. For most people, it could go either way, but Penelope is convinced he/she is a girl. "It" can be a boy since "it" never wears mascara and has no breasts, but "it" can also be a girl since "it" never farts and has a ponytail. If anyone would ask him/her a question to get if it's a boy or a girl, he/she might answer something that will work for both. During the most recent episode, Margot (Fred's love interest of this episode) begins dating Panook.

*Fanny Cotton Although Fred has been in love with Anette for the longest time, Fanny is Fred's first ever girlfriend. She is a beautiful redhead who likes to obsessively brush her hair all the time and leaves piles of them behind wherever she goes. A new student at Saint Judes, Fanny had a crush on Fred as soon as she laid her eyes on him. In their first encounter, Fred saved Fanny from the rampaging Claude, the science teacher's pet monkey. For her, it was love at first sight. For him, it was the start of a dilemma: Continue trying to get closer to Anette, who doesn't even notice his presence, or take a chance with Fanny, who is nice and seems pretty interested. One thing led to another, and the two of them started going out. But Fred has regretted it ever since. They broke up a week after and Fanny became completely crazy. Now, her life obsession is to get Fred back, by whatever means possible. In the episode "Within a Hair's Breath of Happiness", Fanny comes back, passing as a blond nurse, while Fred is stuck in the hospital. She has a new evil plan to get her Freddie-Poo back. In order to make him unattractive to the opposite sex, she plans on giving him the C-Baldy Bacterium that will make him loose every hair on his body. But Fabienne enters Fred's hospital room just in time and a fierce battle ensues between the two girls. Fanny ends up contracting the dreaded bacterium. Now bald and confined to a padded room in a psychiatric hospital, she still believes she can get her Fred back, planning on using a new identity the next time they cross paths.

*Yohan Chabot is not very smart and spends all his time with Manny Escobar. Like his friend, he likes to play pranks, insulting Nino, rolling on his skateboard and making other extreme sports. Along with Manny, he ruins Anette`s exhibit (Move on, there`s nothing to see), they roll down the school`s stairs on skateboard, they arrive at the pink party with masks (Spills of the heart). He actually uses big words to describe Fred in "Fred TV", but he probably didn`t know what he said. It`s because of them if Fred accepts a bungee jump for the basketball team. They throw Nino in the pool in the episode "The Make-Up Sausage". They also cause a lot of trouble to Fred when he becomes counselor for a skate-park (Fred's Roller-Blading Daze).

*Manny Escobar is Yohan Chabot`s best friend. Just like him, he is not smart, he likes to make trouble around him, and they are always together, just like brothers. Fred even comes to wonder if they don`t share the same brain. He participated in every prank described in Yohan Chabot`s description.
