Character Guide
The Main Cast
-
Charmin “Shermie” Fridays is the heir apparent and head chef of the family-owned chain restaurant franchise W.T.Fridays. He is hell-bent on transforming the restaurant into a high concept fine dining establishment in the Old Fourth Ward, but nobody else in his family nor on his staff can quite see his vision—whenever they begin to understand, some new and crazy business-ending curveball gets thrown at them.
-
Rebecca “Stevia” Fridays is Shermie’s sister and the mother of baby Matildo. She is also the general manager, HR department, and perhaps the most notable walking HR violation actively happening on the premises. She has Junior in a blueballing chokehold.
She is married to Chad Peanis, an oft-absent doctor. It is her goal to not raise her child the same way her mother raised her and her brother.
-
Adelaide is the newest staff member at W.T.Fridays, which she frequented as a child and during her prior career as the general manager of the Chuck E. Cheese located next door to the restaurant.
She’s a natural in the kitchen, and she admires Shermie greatly.
-
Prior to joining W.T.Fridays as a line cook, ABC was an Egyptian diplomat who brokered peace in the Middle East prior to the start of the story (remember: SCANDAL! The Bare takes place in an alternate reality.) Nobody knows how or why he ended up here, but his American Dream becomes more and more of a nightmare as the days go by.
He has an intimate, but turbulent on-again, off-again friendship with Lenny, the facilities manager.
-
Nobody really knows what the heck is going on with Cousin.
She’s not related by blood to the Fridays family, but ol’ Cuz has been at W.T.Fridays for decades. Lewd, crude, lazy, and argumentative, she’s the perfect employee for the establishment—spiritually, anyway. She’s a terrible employee.
-
Junior spent most of his life in Juvie, but nobody—not even him—knows exactly what for. He’s rough around the edges, but he has a huge heart and a deeply skewed frame of reference for what is and is not standard for life on the outside.
He’s in love with Stevia even though she’s married to someone else—and also his boss.
-
Chef. Mother. Mentor. Tammy Lamar is the realest chef on the line at W.T.Fridays. She loves to have a good time, she loves to spit bars, and she loves her son Kendrick Lamar (not THAT Kendrick Lamar—this is a different one.) Whether you need clear-eyed advice or to get told a hard truth, Tammy has your back.
-
Lenny is the semi-useless facilities manager and handyman at W.T.Fridays. He’s a sensitive dreamer with a knack for getting other people into trouble with his half-baked, high-risk schemes—and blowing things wildly out of proportion.
Deep down, Lenny is sensitive and craves connection. He and his closest friend, ABC, have a history of friendship-breakups and reconciliations.
-
Molly is Shermie’s ex-girlfriend who still holds a flame for him. She’s a nurse who completed her residency at The Pitt and later transferred to St. Gary’s Medical Hospital (from Ed, Tom, and Rueben’s Bedside Manor. Talk about a cross-IP show!)
She been stood up on the first date of almost every guy she’s matched with on Hinge, and it’s really worn down her self-confidence, self-worth, and cheerful demeanor.
-
Unc is Shermie and Stevia’s godfather, as well as the primary investor of W.T.Fridays. He tries to help the business however he can, but most of his ideas go sideways or turn the business upside-down.
He has always been in love with his deceased brother’s wife, Donna.
Special Guests
-
Donna is Shermie and Stevia’s overbearing, unstable, and controlling mother. She puts the “fun” in dysfunctional.
Also, according to Cousin and ABC, she’s smokin’ hot.
-
Kendrick Lamar is Tammy’s son, not the famous hip-hop artist. He holds down multiple jobs in his search to find his future. Darnell is his ruthless, morally questionable alter ego.
-
Chad is a loquacious and impulse-driven doctor at St. Gary’s Medical Hospital. He’s also Stevia’s husband and the father of their child.
His father was also a physician at St. Gary’s, and a significant portion of the hospital is named after him.
He is a walking HR violation.
-
Dr. Conleche of St. Gary’s Medical Hospital is friendly, open-minded, and a decorated and convicted malpractitioner of medicine.
-
The Matildas are a mother-and-daughter pair with a bullying problem and an unchecked thirst for violence.
-
Food critic. Picky. Demanding. Loves mayonnaise.
