{{Characters need descriptions}}
Characters from ''[[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]'' include:
== The Main Six ==
=== T.J. Detweiler ===
Line 108 ⟶ 111:
* [[The Cutie]]: Rather redundant to point out, but it's true!
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
* [[Do Not Call Me "Paul"|Do Not Call Me Ashley]]: She refers to herself by her last name, as her first name is Ashley...like the mean girls at school.
** [[Embarrassing First Name]]
** [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]: Ashley ''Funicello''... hence why she goes by [[Last-Name Basis| Spinelli]]
* [[Dub Name Change]]: "Patricia" in the Portuguese dub.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: She wears two red bands (sometimes bows for special occasions) in her hair to keep her pigtails up.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: Occasionally, such as the episode that reveals her first name is Ashley.
** Though she's not the most feminine girl in the world, she's actually a ''good'' artist.
** Her personality traits (as well as the boots that she wears, since they protect her feet) make her an ideal partner for Mikey in ballet. For example, she enjoys spinning.
* [[Gasshole]]: At times.
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: Subverted, as when it comes to "girlish", she's anything but.
Line 118 ⟶ 124:
* [[Hollywood Tone Deaf]]: According to the other kids.
* [[Intergenerational Friendship]]: With Miss Grotke
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Despite being quick tempered and violent, she's always rooting for the underdog and protecting her friends.
* [[Last-Name Basis]]: Justified in that her first name carries a stigma on the playground.
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: The toughest kid at her school.
* [[Little Miss Snarker]]
* [[Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy]]: Definitely more masculine than Mikey. She's also manlier than TJ, though TTJ himself isn't terribly girly.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: In the pilot, as she looked like she never left kindergarten...which is ironic considering that she does act a bit like the kindergartners do in this series.
* [[One of the Boys]]: One of her friends IS a girl though.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The red to Gretchen's blue.
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: As seen in "The Beauty Contest".
* [[Star-Making Role]]: Along with [[King of the Hill|Bobby Hill]], Spinelli was this for Pamela Segall-Aldon (in terms of voice acting).
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Tomboy to Gretchen's (relative) Girly Girl.
* [[Tsundere]]
* [[Tsurime Eyes]]
Line 180 ⟶ 186:
* [[Badass Pacifist]]: With some help from the diggers, he successfully lures several of Benedict's men into a trap.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Believe it or not, Mikey has one -- don't ever mistake his kindness for weakness (as seen in the episode in which he becomes a goalie for Lawson and his soccer team).
** [[Beware
* [[Big Eater]]: In the opening credits, he eats a Dagwood sandwich in one bite.
* [[Big Fun]]:
Line 261 ⟶ 267:
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Moist"
* [[The Dragon]]: To Miss Finster.
* [[Elmuh Fudd Syndwome]]: As a kindergartner.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards| Even Randall Has Standards]]: He may be a snitch, but he won't do so to any student at a higher grade level than him, such as King Bob because he feels that's just naughty. In the film, he calls out on one of Benedict's henchmen for snitching.
* [[Friendly Enemy]]: When the plot calls for it.
* [[Gonk]]: He pretty much resembles a human/lizard hybrid..which is probably intentional.
* [[Hate Sink]]: He's not exactly the favorite kid on the playground. This makes him the opposite of TJ, since (almost) everyone likes him.
* [[I Just Want to Have Friends]]: In the episode "Randall's Reform"
* [[Insult Comic]]: In "Stand-Up Randall"
Line 271 ⟶ 278:
* [[Redheaded Bully]]: Though not in the normal way, as he has authority figures do his bullying work for him as he's too weak to do it himself.
* [[The Stool Pigeon]]: He's even called this in one episode.
* [[Teacher's Pet]]: Mrs. Finster's pet.
=== Menlo ===
Line 362 ⟶ 369:
* [[Blonde, Brunette, Redhead]]: Ashley A. (blonde), Ashley B. and Ashley T. (brunette), and Ashley Q. (redhead)
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "''Scandalous!''"
* [[Color
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Ashey Q. is surprisingly ''really'' good at kickball.
* [[The Danza]]: Ashley Johnson as Ashley T. is a bit of a subversion, as she [[The Other Darrin|replaced Rachel Crane]] as her voice actress.
Line 394 ⟶ 401:
* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: His real name is Francis.
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|Everyone Calls Him Hustler Kid]]
** [[Do Not Call Me "Paul"| Do Not Call Me Francis]]: He prefers to called Hustler Kid.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: What do you think he does?
* [[Friend in the Black Market]]
Line 483 ⟶ 490:
=== Guru Kid ===
{{quote|'''Voiced by:''' Klee Bragger, Ryan O'Donohue (''Recess: Taking the Fifth Grade'')}}
* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]: In "Don't Ask Me", the kids find it unusual that he IS wearing shoes.
* [[Hermit Guru]]: Parodied.
* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]: Lampshaded in "Don't Ask Me" when the kids realize how unusual it is for him to be wearing a shirt...much like he doesn't normally wear shoes.
=== Gordy ===
Line 496 ⟶ 506:
* [[Scout Out]]: He's a member of the Woodchuck Scouts
** [[Shout-Out]]: Which is most likely a reference to the [[Carl Barks]] ''[[Donald Duck]]'' comics, featuring the Junior Woodchucks.
== Facuilty members ==
=== Miss Finster ===
{{quote|'''Voiced by:''' April Winchell}}
* [[Badass Teacher]]: She proves herself to be one in Recess: School's Out, though strangely enough Miss Grotke can apparently still hold her own against her.
* [[Breakout Character]]
* [[Characterization Marches On]]: In the first season, she actually enjoyed punishing kids. From the second season and onward, while still a [[Sadist Teacher]], she became a [[Sugar and Ice Personality]] [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] and never went to the extremes she used to.
Line 510 ⟶ 519:
* [[Fat Bastard]]
* [[Fiery Redhead]]: She was a redhead when she was younger, but still very fiery.
* [[The Dragon]]/ [[The Lancer]]: to Principal Prickly, though Prickly doesn't exactly share her sadistic streak.
* [[Hate Sink]]: Zigzagged...sometimes she's unlikable, but sometimes she shows that she has a better side. Weekend At Muriel's is a good example of this.
* [[I Was Quite a Looker]]: In ''[[Recess: School's Out]]'', she's proven to be this in the `60s (she has the same voice, however due to her voice actress using her "normal" voice for T.J.'s mom)
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: She's not always a sadist, believe it or not.
* [[Kujira]]: In the Japanese dub.
* [[Last-Name Basis]]: Justified… she’s a teacher, so it makes sense for students to call her Finster rather than Muriel, her first name.
* [[Misunderstood Loner with a Heart of Gold]]: She HAS been portrayed this way, as hard as it is to believe.
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: Finster would only punish students at the school if she has a valid reason and evidence, like a rule violation. If you got done nothing wrong, she won’t bother.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The red to Miss Grotke's blue.
Line 554 ⟶ 564:
* [[Foil]]: She's as affable as Ms. Finster is not.
* [[Foot Focus]]: She's usually shown wearing sandals
* [[Friend to All Children]]: Even the kindergartners.
* [[Genki Girl]]: Sometimes
* [[Granola Girl]]
* [[Hippie Teacher]]: Unlike Principal Prickly, she's still a hippie ''after'' the 60s.
* [[Hot Teacher]]: Arguably. She's more "cute" than "sexy". She's definitely better-looking than Miss Finster though.
* [[Intergenerational Friendship]]: With Spinelli
* [[Masako Katsuki]]: In the Japanese dub
Line 623 ⟶ 633:
* [[Non-Action Big Bad]]: He's not a fighter, that would be his lackey Kojak. He manipulates others to do his dirty work instead. He DOES arm himself with a gun that sedates his victims, however.
* [[Never My Fault]]: The plot of the movie (which was started by his animosity towards Principal Prickly) could be avoided if Dr. Phillium Benedict would face responsibility for his own actions.
* [[Talking
* [[Vile Villain, Saccharine Show]]: It's jarring that there's a villain in this
* [[We
