Characters

Mr. Potato Head, performed by Kevin Carlson, is the main protagonist and leader of the Kitchen Crew, where he produces shows for the TV Guys. He is often called "P.H." by his friends and colleagues. Baloney, performed by Greg Ballora, is an anthropomorphic stack of bologna sausage slices who serves as Mr. Potato Head's best friend and personal assistant, occasionally acting as the voice of reason. Queenie Sweet Potato, performed by Debra Wilson, is an anthropomorphic sweet potato and the crew's diva, gifted with an amazing voice and considered the most talented performer; her love for sugar cream pies and her crush on Leonardo DiCaprio are mentioned multiple times. Potato Bug, performed by Julianne Buescher, is a female potato bug regarded as the oddball due to her wacky personality and quirks, such as believing goblins deliver newspapers, thinking "scapegoat" refers to an actual animal, talking to shoes, and being fascinated by the undersides of tables; she is energetic, kind, and fiercely loyal. Canny, performed by James Murray, is a dog made of dog food cans and Mr. Potato Head's pet; in "Not With a Bang" Part 1, it is revealed that Canny once worked as a university physics professor. Johnny Rotten Apple, performed by James Murray, is an anthropomorphic rotten apple and the crew's resident musician with a rock star personality, often singing about random characters or topics like cheese or cultural diversity; his name spoofs John Lydon's stage name, and in "Aliens Dig Baloney" it is revealed he is allergic to yogurt. Dr. Fruitcake, performed by James Murray in a Transylvanian accent, is an anthropomorphic fruitcake and the crew's mad scientist, creator of Ham Monster, who invents devices to help Mr. Potato Head.
