Line 2:
== Christopher Titus ([[Christopher Titus]]) ==
{{quote|
Most episodes follow his exploits and his point of view. He knows that his life has been and is very screwed up, but realizes that he himself has turned out relatively okay. Even though the show is about his family, everyone calls him by his last name except for his dad and Erin.
Line 14:
== Erin Fitzpatrick ([[Cynthia Watros]]) ==
{{quote|
Christopher's fiancée, a strong and independent woman whose family is just as messed up as his. She is a calming influence on Titus, is one of the few people Papa Titus likes, and is semi-openly lusted after by both Dave and Tommy. Despite her peacemaking personality, she has a buried Irish temper that everyone is afraid of. Her parents, Nora and Merritt, are miserably married alcoholics, her sister, Kim, is a sexually promiscuous drug addict, and her brother, Michael, is a career criminal. Her childhood dream was to become the first person in her family to not be arrested. She brings in her niece Amy (Kim's daughter) after her stepfather (Kim's boyfriend) almost punches her in the face for calling Child Welfare on him.

== Dave Scovill (Zack Ward) ==

'''Dave''': (''between sobs'') But I told you...what I want. I...wanna...get bitten by a [[Spider
Christopher's stepbrother and close friend. He has a short attention span, is easily swayed by food, smokes pot, is a [[Cloudcuckoolander]] and has an obsession with Asian women. (Actor Zack Ward is light-skinned, has red hair and freckles, yet is married to an Asian woman. The writers found this funny and wrote it in.) He is blissfully unaware of how messed-up he is.
Line 42:
== Tommy Shafter (David Shatraw) ==
{{quote|
'''Papa Titus''':"Can you get him away from me?" }}
Friend of the family and accountant for Titus' custom car shop. Growing up in a relatively stable household, Tommy is the only 'normal' member of the cast, and he is just as screwed-up as everyone else. Eccentric, flamboyant and anal, his [[Ambiguously Gay|effeminate]] mannerisms are subverted as he is heterosexual, but those mannerisms are picked up from his actually gay father.
* [[Ambiguously Gay]] and [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Justified in that Tommy imitated his father, who was a [[

== Ken 'Papa' Titus (Stacy Keach) ==

'''Papa Titus''': (''opens beer can, [[Oh Crap|Christopher freezes in shock]]'') I think without me pushin' you, you never would have made it. }}
You could consider him to be a [[Magnificent Bastard]], to some degree. The show revolves around the relationship between him and Christopher. He is a very difficult man to describe; he's gruff and difficult, but has [[Jerk
* [[Abusive Parents|Abusive Parent]]: Believes that emotional damage keeps kids in line instead of physical abuse (as he told Erin's dad in "The Perfect Thanksgiving.")
* [[Hidden Depths]]: According to the Christmas episode "Houseboat" and the episode "Grandma Titus," Ken is a brutal parent because his mother was abusive to him in his childhood (his mother, in turn was emotionally abused by Ken's own father).
* [[Jerk
* [[Kavorka Man]]: Women find him charming...until they date and/or marry him. Then they try to kill him and/or ruin his life.

'''Young Christopher''': "They look like trash cans, Mom."
'''Juanita''': "They always do! They're aliens, not morons! Go get your metal hat!" ''(brandishes a shotgun and shoves the business end of it out the window)'': HOW DARE YOU INVADE MY PLANET!" ''(fires)'' }}
Line 83:
* [[Does Not Like Men]]: Justified when you consider that {{spoiler|her mom's boyfriend beats the crap out of her when he's drunk and she was molested by a male babysitter whose son sexually harasses her}}.
* [[Sixth Ranger]]
* {{spoiler|[[
* [[Hidden Depths]]: "The Protector" and "Amy's Birthday" shed light on why Amy is such a broken child: {{spoiler|Her mother is a drug addict who's too high to raise her own child, her stepfather is a drunk who beats her and, when Amy was a child, she was sexually molested by a family friend who offered to take care of her while her parents were in jail}}.
