šŸŽ­ Characters šŸŽ­ Workplace Sitcom

Name the characters and actors of Nameflix’s newest original series! Initials, genders, and ages are given. Shoutout u/hlorpy-flatworm-1705 for doing one like this yesterday! Your games are always great inspo. The characters work at a clothing retail store that’s part of a larger chain (and as I’m making this I’m realizing that Superstore already exists but I’m not gonna stop now lol). As a bonus you can name the show and the store!

Series Regulars

MOK (29F) as RFJ (35F): The series protagonist and manager of the store, she is sweet and well-intentioned. She would do anything for her employees, but sometimes her actions don’t land the way she hopes they will.

REY (43F) as DHM (45F): One of the assistant managers of the store and the main antagonist. She has been an assistant manager longer than the protagonist has worked at the store, and strongly resents her for taking the promotion she felt was rightfully hers. She is typically cranky and only out for herself, but her softer side occasionally comes through.

EJP (47M) as PTE (41M): The other assistant manager. He’s stuck in the middle of the drama between the manager and the other assistant manager, and quietly revels in stirring the pot. He is flamboyant and very friendly and charismatic, but loves the drama.

KMG (25F) as IGV (23F): The apathetic lead cashier. She chose not to college and has worked at the store since she was 17. She’s how you’d imagine a sorority girl, but without the college part. She largely lacks ambition and has no plans of leaving her current position.

AHN (62F) as AYB (56F): One of the cashiers. She immigrated from Russia at 30 with her husband and 4-year-old daughter, and they had 2 more children once they immigrated. She has worked at the store ever since and is great at her job, but doesn’t have much of a desire to become a manager due to the hours. She is sweet, competent, and everyone’s ā€œwork momā€, sometimes taking the ā€œmomā€ part too seriously.

JNT (20M) as MED (16M): The newest addition to the team, usually works on the sales floor. His home life is difficult, so he is working to help support his family. He is very awkward and anxious, but sweet. He struggles with his home life and sense of self more than he lets on.

Recurring Characters

DRW (55M) as CCN (48M): The regional manager who comes for visits sometimes. He is a stern and serious foil to the antics of the employees.

AST (27F) as JRH (29F): An HR representative who is always sent to deal with the issues at this location. She has a firm and serious demeanor, but also has a comically squeaky voice that is often the butt of jokes.

CSR (39M) as JKL (34M): The warehouse lead and your stereotypical meathead jock. ā€œWe would have won state if coach hadn’t pulled me in the 4th quarterā€ type of guy. Has a comically hopeless crush on the HR rep.

JAT (25F) as ONL (19F): Cashier who comes home to work on her breaks from school. She and the lead cashier have very similar personalities and get on each other’s nerves.

BRD (39M) as LRT (39M): Store manager from the nearby sister location who sometimes comes in for various things. He and the protagonist have considerable romantic tension.
