List of The Cleveland Show characters
This is a list of characters from the American television series The Cleveland Show.
Main characters
Cleveland Brown
Cleveland "Lou Albano" Orenthal Brown, Sr. (voiced by Mike Henry) was formerly one of Peter Griffin's best friends on Family Guy, he moves back to the town where he grew up and finds his old girlfriend from high school, Donna Tubbs (even though Cleveland was in love with Donna but they were only friends and she did not know it). Eventually resparking his relationship with her, they get married and he and his son move in with her and her 2 kids. Cleveland is usually depicted as exceedingly gentle and patient, and it is only on rare occasions that he has been known to lose his temper and resort to violence. However, Cleveland gets visibly annoyed with racist behavior, which sometimes is justified. He often acts as the voice of caution when other characters hatch harebrained schemes. Cleveland's speech is slow, almost elongated. Various flashbacks give conflicting histories of his speech patterns. He is shown as a more sexual and violent character in his new form than he was originally. Mild-mannered friend who formerly owned and ran a deli. He is an African-American male who is very polite to everyone and has a unique laugh.
Donna Tubbs
Donna Tubbs Brown is the second wife of Cleveland Brown and works as the principal's assistant at Stoolbend High School. She has two biological children from her previous relationship with Robert Tubbs, Roberta and Rallo, and she's kept her first husband's name. As a result of her marriage to Cleveland, she has adopted a third child, his son Cleveland Brown, Jr.
Donna and Cleveland were initially best friends in high school, although Cleveland clearly had romantic feelings towards her. Donna unfortunately was for the most part oblivious to his feelings, and instead dated Cleveland's unofficial rival Robert. Despite Cleveland's attempts to get Donna to see Robert for what he truly was (a self-centered, irresponsible jerk), Donna ended up marrying Robert shortly after graduation. Seeing no reason to remain, Cleveland left Stoolbend and Donna behind.
Despite many attempts at making their marriage work, Donna and Robert ended up separating due to Robert's heavy drinking and drug abuse, leaving Donna to raise their children alone. Robert would visit occasionally, but more out of selfish desire than any familial reasons. After years apart, Donna was of course over-joyed to see her best friend, Cleveland again. Cleveland and his son, who were passing through Stoolbend while driving to California, had stopped by the high school to retrace Cleveland's old haunting grounds. Donna invites the Browns to stay at her house, which results in a rekindling of their friendship that soon blossoms into a full-blown romance. The two soon marry, and honeymoon in New York City a few months later.
Having been friends for years prior to getting married, Cleveland and Donna have a close relationship both sexually and platonically. Donna comes off much more patient and understanding than Cleveland's first wife, and is more attentive to him as well. Her relationship with her children meanwhile is somewhat more shaky, as both her children are the result of a broken home and neglectful father. Donna does her best to keep her children under control, but is aware that they need a father figure at times. Yet despite any issues that she and her kids have, its clear that they care for one another. Donna's relationship with Cleveland, Jr. meanwhile is underdeveloped yet, save for the fact the Cleveland, Jr. is quick to do what he can to follow Donna's wishes for fear of another divorce occurring. However, she has shown to be willing to protect him from danger, such as when she saved him from an ax-wielding Donny in "A Nightmare on Grace Street" by throwing a wine glass at his head.
Donna works as an assistant to Principal Wally at Stoolbend High School. She takes care of odd jobs, assisting Principal Wally when he is indisposed and serving as a secretary of sorts (she can type 85 words per minute).
She is shown with an extremely large posterior, that is joked about often in the series.
Cleveland Brown, Jr.
Cleveland Orenthal Brown, Jr. (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson, Mike Henry in "Family Guy") is the obese biological son of Cleveland Brown and his late ex-wife Loretta. He debuted in the season 2 episode "Love Thy Trophy" on the animated TV show Family Guy. During his time in Family Guy he was shown to be skinny, hyperactive, and athletic. He was presumably taken into Loretta's custody after she divorced Cleveland in "The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire" and has since become severely obese. He suffers from mild seizure-like episodes which he refers to as "brainstorms" and takes medication to control them. It was revealed in the episode "Hurricane!" that he "doesn't believe in God".
Roberta Tubbs
Roberta Coretta Tubbs (sometimes Roberta Benigni Tubbs) is the fifteen-year-old, biological daughter of Donna and her ex-husband, Robert. She looks up to Tyra Banks, hoping to one day become her co-hostess. A relatively popular girl in school, Roberta is often seen socializing with her friends, both in person, and using phones, on social networking websites. She has been dating a less than respectable boy by the name of Federline Jones, who Donna does not much approve of, but who Cleveland has managed to bully into submission.
Neither Roberta nor her brother Rallo are initially pleased with the arrival of Cleveland and Cleveland Brown, Jr., though both appear to accept their mother marrying Cleveland without much issue. In fact, Roberta and Cleveland seem to fall into a rather stereotypical father/daughter relationship, with Roberta being embarrassed by her stepfather's behavior when he attends social functions at her school.
Roberta seems to have a love/hate relationship with her brother Rallo. In the first episode, Roberta reneges on her responsibility to babysit him in order to go out with her friends. However, she seems able to share plenty of witty dialogue with her brother, apparently seeing him as something of an intellectual equal, despite his age. Roberta's relationship with Cleveland, Jr. has shown promise of being a decently caring one, despite a shaky beginning. Initially both Roberta and Rallo are disturbed by how clean and attentive Cleveland, Jr. is in regards to Donna's parental requests. Initially annoyed at him making them look bad, they become sympathetic when they realize that he never accepted his parent's divorce, and has been doing all he can to avoid giving into his sorrow. Together, Rallo and Roberta do all they can to help Cleveland, Jr. let his feelings out and at the same time, they accept him as their brother. She can also talk like Robert, although she seems a bit resentful of his failures as a parent compared to the sense of hero worship Rallo feels toward him. Roberta seems to have an archrival, Lacey Stapleton.
Rallo Tubbs
Montclair "Rallo" Tubbs is the five-year-old, biological son of Donna and her ex-husband, Robert. He has one biological sister, Roberta. As a result of his mother marrying Cleveland, Rallo has gained Cleveland Brown, Jr. as a stepbrother. His best friends are Julius and Walt.
Despite his age, and the fact his father has been mostly absent most of his life, Rallo acts much like Robert, behaving at times very articulate, yet hormonally charged. He seems to get along fairly well with his mother Donna and has a normal love/hate relationship with Roberta, who at times seems to neglect him, yet at other times speaks to him as if an intellectual equal.
With the new arrivals of Cleveland and Cleveland, Jr., Rallo has shown some initial reluctance to accept both into his life, actively insulting them, such as joking about their weight. However, he warms up to Cleveland, who manages to teach him how to handle checking out the girls in his kindergarten class. When Cleveland inadvertently kills the family dog, Rallo is devastated by the loss, but comes to respect Cleveland for all the work he did in trying to "find him" when Rallo thought the dog was merely missing, as well as the effort Cleveland put into trying to be a good parent to Roberta.
Despite being younger than his new stepbrother Cleveland, Jr. Rallo seems to take a more aggressive hand in their interaction, openly insulting Junior. However, this seems to just be Rallo's way of addressing people in general, and not done with any deep malice intended. In fact, their relationship is showing promise of being a decently caring one at this point. In "Birth of a Salesman," both Roberta and Rallo are disturbed by how clean and attentive Cleveland, Jr. is in regards to Donna's parental requests. Initially annoyed at him making them look bad, they become sympathetic when they realize that he never accepted his parents' divorce, and has been doing all he can to avoid giving into his sorrow. Together Rallo and Roberta do all they can to help Cleveland, Jr. let his feelings out and at the same time, they accept him as their brother.
Rallo seems to somewhat value cleanliness and etiquette from houseguests, as demonstrated by his indignant reaction to Cleveland and Cleveland, Jr., not making their beds after staying the night with the Tubbs family in the pilot.
He was an antisemite, as discovered in "Ladies' Night". After befriending a Jewish senior citizen in "Murray Christmas", even going so far to celebrating Hanukah with him, it appears that he no longer is. In one episode he becomes racist towards white people after learning of the history of slavery in the United States. Rallo then go on rants to kill and harm white people, but changes his stance once he sees that the Krinklesac family are not racists, are not responsible for owning slaves and actually enjoy many of the same activities and foods as himself. His favorite meal consists of fish sticks and Tater Tots, and, before his stepfather moved in, he sat at the head of the dinner table.
Brown/Tubbs relatives
- Evelyn "Cookie" Brown (voiced by Frances Callier) - Evelyn is Cleveland's mother and Cleveland Jr.'s paternal grandmother. Her first appearance was in the episode "A Brown Thanksgiving". She is hyper-critical of Donna.
- LeVar "Freight Train" Brown (voiced by Craig Robinson) - LeVar is Cleveland's father and Cleveland, Jr.'s paternal grandfather. His name is a reference to LeVar Burton. He is abusive towards Cleveland, and has a history of leaving and then reuniting with his wife, Cookie, who is unaware he has more than a dozen other sons of various ages and races as seen in the episode "You're the Best Man, Cleveland Brown!". LeVar seems to be close to the Griffin family, where he calls Rallo Tubbs 'Black Stewie'. He seems to resemble Jim Brown.
- Robert Tubbs (voiced by Corey Holcomb) - Robert is Donna's first husband, and the biological father of Roberta and Rallo. At the start of the show, he had grown negligent of the statuses of his children, not even knowing their names, which convinced Donna to accept Cleveland as her true love. Swearing revenge on Cleveland, Robert left with the Tubbses' pet parakeet, Joan, although since the pilot, his intentions for revenge seemed to have mysteriously been forgotten. Like Cleveland, Donna's neighbors do not like Robert because of his arrogant ways. He stole Lester's good lighter (the Bic one), broke Holt's Game Boy, and even had sex with Tim's wife, Arianna (in "Cleveland Live!"). He is currently an unemployed bum, while Rallo thinks he is at first an FBI agent, then Santa Claus. His relationship with Roberta has seemingly worsened over time, but his relationship with Rallo has at least remained consistently decent.
- Auntie Momma (voiced by Kym Whitley as a female, Kevin Michael Richardson as a male) - Auntie Mama is Donna's aunt. Her appearance and mannerisms are a parody of Tyler Perry's character Madea, as is the fact that she is a transvestite (Perry plays Madea in drag). Auntie Momma was originally Donna's Uncle Kevin, and when Donna was younger her parents were never around, so he became she in order to provide Donna with a strong female influence in her life. Donna is very fond of her but is unaware she is actually a man; when Cleveland finds out, he keeps it from her to preserve their relationship. Auntie Momma has sex with LeVar without him realizing about the penis, LeVar had a vomit reaction to this when Cleveland told him outside of the house.
- Loretta Brown (voiced by Alex Borstein) is Cleveland's late ex-wife, and the mother of Cleveland, Jr. She had a liking for cricket and the television program Friends. Early in the show, Loretta had a minimal quantity of lines, the bulk of which were "Mm-hmm!" She treats Cleveland harshly, and eventually cheats on him with Glenn Quagmire, leading the Browns to divorce. In the episode "Love, Blactually", it is revealed that Loretta has regretted her actions and wants Cleveland back, but he refuses her advances. Cleveland informs her he needs to move on, and advises her to do the same. She takes Cleveland's house in the divorce and puts it up for sale, yet is still apparently living there some months later. Episode "Gone with the Wind", Loretta dies in an accident when Peter drops an Apatosaurus skeleton on her house while she is sitting in an upstairs bathtub. Quagmire ended up driving her body down to Stoolbend for her funeral.
Neighbors
A number of characters in the show live on the same street as the Brown family. All were seen attending the wedding of Cleveland and Donna Brown.
Bear family
- Tim the Bear (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) - Tim is one of Cleveland and Donna's neighbors in Stoolbend that just happens to be a bear. He is four years old[1] and lives with his wife, Arianna, and his son, Raymond. He has deep religious convictions (often attending Stoolbend Community Church and having his honeymoon in Israel), though in spite of them, he still accepts Raymond's sexuality. He works as a telemarketer at Waterman Cable. He becomes Cleveland's drinking buddy at The Broken Stool, where he also converses with Holt and Lester. He apparently smokes in secret, as he asks Cleveland not to tell his wife about it. He also has a very deep Eastern European accent and has trouble with American euphemisms. He finds it racist when someone screams because he is a bear, as Tim quotes towards Cleveland to show him how he feels "Ah! a black man!". Despite the difficulties Cleveland faces in truth-telling, he accepts Tim's advice to be honest with his family. Additionally, he often accidentally slashes things with his claws, something he is quite ashamed of. In "Brown History Month", Cleveland stated that Tim's father was a black fur bear and that his mother was a kangaroo, actually making him a hybrid between the species rather than a bear. Tim has often hinted at his attraction to Donna.
- Arianna the Bear (voiced by Arianna Huffington) - Arianna is the wife of Tim and one of Cleveland and Donna's neighbors in Stoolbend. Arianna has a son named Raymond. Like her son and husband, Arianna is a bear. She is unaware that Tim smokes, as he deliberately keeps it a secret from her. She seems like a normal stereotypical housewife. She is not against purchasing lavish things; a store that deals with foreign coffees has her credit card on file. She also speaks Italian, further supporting her enjoyment of foreign things. However, she makes her own confetti, suggesting she may make up for her expensive tastes in coffee by cutting costs elsewhere. Arianna is strict and takes religion very seriously, being much more assertive in her beliefs than her husband. She can often be critical of how Donna runs her life: before Cleveland married Donna, Arianna did not allow the neighbor into her house, looking down on her status as a single mother. She has also talked down on the types of clothes Donna allows Roberta to wear. For her and Tim's honeymoon, they went to Israel. She does not approve of Raymond kissing boys or girls or of the Jewish Mrs. Lowenstein running the Christmas show.
- Raymond the Bear (voiced by Nat Faxon) - Bisexual son of Tim and Arianna and neighbors with Cleveland and Donna in Stoolbend. He appears briefly in the pilot at Cleveland and Donna's wedding. Raymond's father believes that he is useful for doing chores around the house that he does not want to do. In the episode "From Bed to Worse," Raymond is also considered popular in high school since he hangs out with Roberta, Federline, and Oliver. However, in contrast with his friends, Raymond is also smart and helps out with charities, such as spending his Thanksgiving with his family helping feed the poor in the episode "A Brown Thanksgiving." In "Field of Streams," it is revealed that he is a frequent user of marijuana and avidly listens to Pink Floyd records. Unlike his parents, who are European, Raymond speaks with an American accent.
Krinklesac family
- Lester Krinklesac (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson) - One of Cleveland and Donna's neighbors in Stoolbend, Lester is a redneck. He is apparently on friendly terms with his neighbor Donna, being at first concerned that Cleveland is stalking Donna but promptly apologizes to her when he realizes Cleveland was an invited guest. He becomes Cleveland's drinking buddy at The Broken Stool conversing with Tim and Holt, Cleveland even helped Lester get his son back from a rather money obsessesd foster family. He was thought to be a Neo-Confederate, but it was revealed that he has no clue about any of that when he proclaims that the Navy Jack adorning his house is a "Dukes of Hazzard flag". In the Season 1 finale, it is revealed Lester has a sister who is a stripper. He also appears to be very good at making racing cars.
- Kendra Krystal Krinklesac (voiced by Aseem Batra) - She is the wife of Lester the redneck. Kendra is also a redneck, and is possibly disabled. She is very much overweight, a compulsive eater, she has type 2 diabetes and even once being said that she had cholesterol that couldn't be measured. She first appeared in the pilot episode at Cleveland and Donna's wedding. Kendra also appeared in "Da Doggone Daddy-Daughter Dinner Dance" in her house with Lester. She is often seen driving a Rascal electric scooter. In the "Once Upon a Tyne in New York" episode, her husband drives a limousine whose license plate reads "Virginia / IFKNDRA", which when properly elongated reads "I fuck Kendra". It is revealed in "Cleveland's Angels" that she is brilliant at counting cards, was hot and skinny, and is aged somewhere in her 60's. It's is also revealed that she was previously married to a Baron. However, these last two revelations might not be true since Cleveland dismissed them as "stupid stories." In "Ain't Nothin' But Mutton Bustin'" it was suggested that she and Lester may be half siblings from his father's second family, but in "To Live and Die in VA" it is revealed he was with her since sophomore year of high school when she was his guidance counselor. Among other things, Kendra is also revealed to be a devoted fan of Alan Alda.
- Ernie Krinklesac (voiced by Glenn Howerton) - Ernie is the son of Lester and Kendra. Ernie first appeared in the episode "Pilot" at Cleveland and Donna's wedding. Ernie also appeared in the episode "The One About Friends" where Ernie became Cleveland, Jr.'s new best friend and went so far as to wanting to move in with him. In this episode, it is revealed that Ernie has a pet opossum named Princess. This episode also showed that the Krinklesac household was no place for Ernie to be raised, and he was taken away by child services. Ernie and his father bond when they discover that the only reason they didn't want to live together was because they thought the other did not, and Lester is able to bring Ernie back home. After visiting Arnold's Whoreshack in "Cleveland Jr.'s Cherry Bomb", Ernie apparently married a whore known as 'Two-Virgine' Merline. Ernie also appears to work in a slaughterhouse. He apparently is very talented in woodshop (actually building a Grandfather Clock that doubles as a portal to a fantasy world). He seems to resemble Cleveland Jr. before he became overweight. Cleveland considers Ernie "weird" in which he once told Lester to "Keep your weird son away from my weird son."
- Princess - Krinklesac family's pet opossum.
Richter family
- Holt Ann Richter (voiced by Jason Sudeikis) - Holt is a 32-year-old frat boy wannabe. Holt attempts to be a suave, pop-culture reference-dropping bro, but the effect is undercut by his short stature (he is short enough to be mistaken for a child, as proven by Kendra occasionally referring to him as "the baby man") and large beer gut, as well as the fact that he still lives with his mother. He enjoys Game Boy and Entourage, and is frequently seen playing or practicing golf. He drives a Chrysler Crossfire named Appolonia. Holt has a tattoo of Jeremy Piven on his chest.
Characters based in other locations
Waterman Cable
- Lloyd Waterman (voiced by Bruce McGill) - He is the head of Waterman Cable who hires Cleveland to be a salesman. His workers are Terry and Tim the Bear. He used to be a racist (stated because of his mother's teaching), however changed his views after seeing Cleveland's salesmanship. He is shown to be a homosexual, seen in the episode "Birth of a Salesman" when Cleveland is about to be fired and spies a Sex and the City mug and homoerotic pictures on Mr. Waterman's wall. He has a crush on Terry. However, he is married to Lydia Waterman who is aware that he is gay. In the Christmas episode, when Mr. Waterman shows off his reindeer, Roberta asks his wife "so he just keeps that poor thing locked away and then brings it out and shows it off on Christmas" she replies "yes, I wonder how that feels".
- Terry Kimple (voiced by Jason Sudeikis) - Terry is a high school friend of Cleveland who once took the fall for him when the two were busted for smoking marijuana. He installs cable, but almost loses his job when he crashes the Waterman Cable van on what would have been his third DUI. Mr. Waterman has a secret crush on Terry and has pictures of him on his wall. Cleveland eventually works beside Terry as a cable guy. He participates in Cleveland plans such as retaking his jersey or helping him save a friend. It is revealed that he has a daughter he hasn't seen in a year and a half in "Field of Streams" and in "Terry Unmarried" he reveals that he is bisexual, ("I've been with a lot of hot women, and I've been with a few hot dudes.") later marrying his boyfriend Paul (voiced by Justin Timberlake) in Vermont. He has a son also named Terry, as well as an as-of-yet-unnamed daughter.
- Arch (voiced by Mike Henry) - An employee of Waterman Cable. He seems to be very serious, being quite a stickler when it comes to office etiquette.
- Aaron (voiced by Alec Sulkin) - One of Cleveland's co-workers. He once helped Cleveland win a Civil War reenactment of "The Battle of Stoolbend" against B. Emerson Plunkett V.
- Jane (voiced by Stacy Ferguson) - She is a former girlfriend of Holt's. Jane is shown to love cats, as she has lots of them living in her apartment, one of which is seemingly capable of using her answering machine. She first appears in "Buried Pleasure" when Holt meets her online. They initially hit it off over their shared love of music, but the relationship gets dangerous on Holt's end when Jane gets aggressive with him and starts beating him regularly. When Cleveland, Tim, Lester, and Terry all try to get her to stop, she beats up all of them, as well, knowing they will not strike her back for being a female. She is finally driven off and forced to end her relationship with Holt after losing a brawl with Donna, who fights her out of anger for hurting Cleveland (and physical assists from Arianna and Kendra for hurting their respective husbands certainly do not hurt). She makes a cameo appearance at LeVar and Evelyn's wedding in "You're the Best Man, Cleveland Brown" (though why she was there is inexplicable, given that she was on poor terms with most of the characters).
Stoolbend High School
- Principal Wally Farquhare[2] (voiced by Mike Henry in the first appearance, Will Forte in later appearances) - He is the principal of Cleveland, Jr's and Roberta's school, and is a former high-school classmate of Cleveland's. He hates both Cleveland and Terry because they bullied him in high school. When he threatened to tell the principal about how Cleveland's group was drinking back when they were students, Cleveland chased him to try and beat him up, making him fall and then urinating all over himself, soaking his thighs and pocket contents. He first appeared in "Ladies Night," where Cleveland, Jr. runs for the election for Student President. He has the mannerisms of a teenager. In "Field of Streams," he tries to get revenge on Cleveland by torching Cleveland's jersey but was stopped by Cleveland, Jr. Cleveland then decides to teach Principal Wally a lesson for almost torching his jersey, as well as for calling Cleveland, Jr. a "chubby loser." However, after Cleveland corners Principal Wally, he once again urinates his pants soaking his thighs and pocket contents to Cleveland's delight. Farquhare's name may be a reference to Fauquier County in Northern Virginia, and his character is described as "an effeminate Will Forte."
- Derek (voiced by Julius Sharpe) – A student at Stoolbend High School that picks on Cleveland Brown Jr. during his first day of school at Stoolbend High School. He attempts to join Laine in making fun of him for kissing his dad goodbye, but goes much too far and makes the situation uncomfortable for everyone present. Derek often makes incredibly inappropriate comments, much to Laine's anger.
- Laine (voiced by Alec Sulkin) – A student that at first picks on Cleveland Brown Jr. in his first day of school at Stoolbend High School. He later makes friends with him when he finds him useful in the men's room in "Da Doggone Daddy-Daughter Dinner Dance."
- Kyle (voiced by John Viener) – A student that at first picks on Cleveland Brown Jr. in his first day of school at Stoolbend High School. He later makes friends with him when he finds him useful in the men's room in "Da Doggone Daddy-Daughter Dinner Dance."
- Reggie (voiced by Clarence Livingston) – A student that at first picks on Cleveland Brown Jr. in his first day of school at Stoolbend High School. He later makes friends with him when he finds him useful in the men's room in "Da Doggone Daddy-Daughter Dinner Dance."

Harper Elementary School
- Mrs. Hadassah Lowenstein (voiced by Alex Borstein) - Rallo's kindergarten teacher at Harper Elementary School. Rallo was kicked out of school for pulling down her pants but Cleveland talks her into giving him another chance in the pilot episode. She is a stereotypical Jew, and Cleveland asks if he can call her Hadassah.
- Walt (voiced by Al Thompson) - Friend of Rallo and Julius who attends Harper Elementary School.
- Bernard Bernard (voiced by Will.i.am) - One of Rallo's friends at Harper Elementary School. He is good friends with Theodore.
- Theodore Parker, Jr. III (voiced by T-Pain) - One of Rallo's friends at Harper Elementary School. He is good friends with Bernard.
- Hot Wheels - One of the kids at Harper Elementary School. He wears roller blades. Despite being in kindergarten, he already shows signs of being part of the "alternative lifestyle." He resembles Adam Lambert, the singer that was a contestant on the television show American Idol.
Others
- Gabriel Friedman (voiced by Jamie Kennedy) - Known by his stage name Federline Jones, he is Roberta's boyfriend and classmate. He is a reference to rapper Kevin Federline, or K-Fed for short. He appeared in the pilot, where Cleveland made sure that Federline brought Roberta home at exactly 10:00. In "The One About Friends," Roberta wanted Federline to be allowed move into the Browns-Tubbs's house if Ernie was allowed to move in. He is white, but likes to "act black" as well as speak in a fast and sometimes incomprehensible slang. It was unknown at first whether their relationship was still on after the events of the episode "Love Rollercoaster," when Federline inadvertently and unknowingly revealed to Roberta he only liked her because of her body. However, in the episode "Gone With the Wind", Federline is seen attending Loretta's funeral sitting next to Roberta, and they are seen making out in the episode "Brotherly Love", so it is confirmed that they are still in love, possibly after Roberta got him to understand that she would not continue to date him if her looks were all that mattered to him. His real name is revealed to be Gabriel Friedman in "Brotherly Love", it is also revealed that he is Jewish and his parents are professors. He is afraid of Cleveland yet is in awe of his rapping skill. He and Cleveland Junior are neutral to one another with Cleveland Junior saying "He just trying to find his way like everything else." During "How Do You Solve a Problem like Roberta" he was heartbroken when he and Roberta broke up following his refusal to get a tattoo due to his religion, although he later got "girlfriend" tattooed on his body, showing he may actually care for more than her looks, however in "Love Rollercoaster" he states to his friends and the "new student" Tyra (Roberta in a fat suit) that "It don't matter if she smart or funny so long as I'm peepin' that sweet apple bottom and fine set of breasteses", which shows a direct contradiction.
- Coach Charles McFall (voiced by Mike Henry) - He worked as a baseball coach during Cleveland's high school days at Stoolbend High School. When Cleveland wanted to start up the Waterman Yards again, Cleveland found Coach McFall working as a janitor at the Broken Stool. He suffers from pronounced oral cancer from years of tobacco chewing (as shown with part of his right cheek missing, similar to the scar seen on Jonah Hex) and is apparently homeless. In "Once Upon a Tyne in New York," it is revealed that he went out with Tyne Daly.
- Gus the Bartender (voiced by David Lynch) - He works as a bartender at the Broken Stool, before which he studied Drama at Northwestern University. Gus seems to be on good terms with Cleveland and his friends giving them their drinks for free. However, he may just be unintelligent as he does not pay his mortgage on the bar, and learns quite a bit of bartending from the fourteen year old Cleveland Jr. Gus is also very lax, hiring Cleveland Jr. to work at his bar and letting people almost push him around. In "A Nightmare on Grace Street," it is revealed that he uses parts of human corpses as the meat in the sandwiches served at his bar, possibly to save money on real meat.
- Murray (voiced by Carl Reiner) - Murray is a senior citizen who Rallo meets at the retirement home. He teaches Rallo about the Jewish holiday of Chanukah.
- Angus (voiced by Alec Sulkin) - A radio show host and occasional sports commentator.
- Gordy (voiced by John Viener) - A radio announcer who is the co-host of Angus.
- Dr. Fist (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) – A doctor that works at Stoolbend's hospital.
- Donny (voiced by Danny Smith) - Formerly a leisure-suit-wearing patron of the Broken Stool and a former acquaintance of Cleveland's, Donny was first seen in "How Cleveland Got His Groove Back," when Cleveland temporarily sought out a new circle of friends to avoid the shame of facing his current drinking buddies after Lester struck him out in baseball. However, he quickly became annoyed by Donny's tendency to frequently tell bad jokes and began to treat him fairly poorly. Donny's more prominent appearance came in "A Nightmare on Grace Street," when Cleveland continued treating him dismissively out of sheer annoyance with him (and there were hints that this had been going on long before the events of the episode). The repeated rejections caused him to have a psychotic break, and he plotted to murder Cleveland in his home with an axe on Halloween. When he turned out not to be home, he instead settled for trying to kill Donna and Cleveland, Jr., while he waited for his main target. Eventually, he simply took them prisoner until Cleveland arrived home with Rallo, at which point he attempted to kill them, as well. He was killed in self-defense in a final showdown with Cleveland (with an assist from Rallo), and his body was taken by Gus to be used for sandwich meat at the Broken Stool.
- Dwayne Meighan (voiced by Mike Henry) is the local television newscaster of Stoolbend.
- Mr. Flippers (voiced by Mike Henry) – A magical flying walrus that would save the characters during the "Scene Missing" parts.
- Sarah Friedman (voiced by Bebe Neuwirth) - Sarah Friedman is the mother of Gabriel and works as a professor alongside her husband Saul.
- Saul Friedman (voiced by Jason Alexander) - Saul Friedman is the father of Gabriel and works as a professor alongside his wife Sarah. He allows his son to promote his CD at his house. Saul was present at LeVar and Cookie's wedding.
