Characters

[edit]
  • Zack (voiced by Thomas Albritton for the first 2 seasons and then voiced by Eli Paul for season 3) is a 7-year-old boy and the protagonist of the show. His best friends are Quack and Kira.
  • Quack (vocal effects by Nick Baker) is a blue mallard who is Zack's best friend. Despite the fact he can't speak, everybody can understand his quacking.
  • Kira (voiced by Madison Zamor) is an 8-year-old girl with curly hair who can fix anything with a little creativity and various tools.
  • Hop (voiced by Maria May but the role was later taken over by Clancy Penny in season 3) and Skip (voiced by Regan Lutz for the entire run for the show) are a pair of very acrobatic squirrel sisters. Hop is pink while Skip is purple and is the smaller of the two.
  • Fluffy (voiced by Jesse Ray Sheps) is a wide-eyed young brown hedgehog.
  • Belly-Up (voiced by Colin McFarlane) is an expert and lovable green bullfrog.
