This is a list of characters featured in the Adult Swim animated television series Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Master Shake
Voiced by Dana Snyder, Master Shake (or simply Shake) is a narcissistic, lazy, shallow, selfish, and idiotic milkshake. When the Aqua Teens solve crimes, Master Shake claims to be the leader, despite rarely accomplishing anything and usually obstructing progress and leaving the actual work to Frylock. His special powers are emitting charged blobs of pistachio milkshake from his straw and making any small object he throws to the ground explode, though the latter is not noticed by himself or other characters. Shake particularly loathes Meatwad, and goes out of his way to torment and bamboozle him with elaborate schemes. Master Shake also frequently tries to con other characters, notably Carl, though it always fails thanks to his selfishness, greed, gullible stupidity or any of his other glaring character flaws. He engages in various get-rich-quick schemes that are poorly thought out and usually illegal in nature. Even when Master Shake's plans do work out, he usually miscalculates and does not earn profits but incurs incredible losses. Carl is often his business partner in these ridiculous schemes. Shake is also extremely lazy and balks at the idea of completing chores, let alone getting a job; the few times he has held a job ended with Shake abandoning his post, and on one occasion trying to rob the register on his way out. Shake is extremely vain and self-absorbed, and frequently acts out to get attention. According to one critic he is "voiced, as always, with wonderful snarkiness by Dana Snyder."[1]
Frylock
Voiced by Carey Means, Frylock is a floating box of French fries who has laser-shooting contact lenses, dental braces, and a goatee. He is easily the show's smartest character and often saves Shake and Meatwad from danger. His special powers are levitation and various eye beams, both powered by a large blue jewel on his back. He occasionally tries to be environmentally friendly, to the ire of Master Shake. Frylock often serves as the straight man to the antics of the other characters in the show, but is known to act perverted towards women not normally considered to be socially desirable and occasionally engages in illegal and amoral sciences, sometimes at the behest of anonymous benefactors or black market buyers.
Meatwad
Voiced by Dave Willis, Meatwad is a large ball of ground beef (stated by Shake to be hamburger meat in "Dickesode") with only one tooth, and, due to his method of travel (rolling) he tends to have stray hairs embedded in his "body". He is very childlike and naive, something which leaves him both sweet-natured and easily bamboozled. Frylock tries to be a good brother figure to Meatwad, but Shake often tortures and pranks Meatwad, although in many episodes, Meatwad manipulates Shake into causing harm to himself by manipulating his greed and vanity. Meatwad is often manipulated by numerous parties into going along with their illegal and dangerous activities, particularly by Shake and the Mooninites. His special powers are shapeshifting into any form he desires (such as a hot dog or an igloo, as seen in the intro), and mitosis. Meatwad's other special power is that he can absorb a lot of static electricity and grow rapidly after absorbing a large amount of it.
Carl Brutanunanulewski
Also voiced by Dave Willis, Carl Brutanunanulewski is the quick-tempered, vulgar, sarcastic, obese, and unlucky neighbor of the often destructive Aqua Teens who regularly harass him. Carl loves pornography, prostitutes and strippers, sports (especially the New York Giants), his Dodge Stealth "2 Wycked", classic rock music, and junk food. He hates it when the Aqua Teens are in his pool or when they (especially Shake) mess with his car, though he is occasionally cordial to Frylock and Meatwad, to whom he refers as "Fryman" and "Meatman", respectively. Carl prides himself on being more normal than his neighbors; however, he is shown to engage in or have connections with various illegal activities and criminal associates, and has bizarre sexual fetishes. Carl is mostly unfazed by the various odd happenings around him, and is often maimed or killed. Carl also appeared on his own sports-related online series entitled Carl's Stone Cold Lock of the Century of the Week, as well as Pregame Prognostifications from the Pigskin Wyzzard. Carl generally has a contentious and negative relationship with the Aqua Teens, particularly Shake who he despises and often refers to derisively as simply "Cup". He nevertheless ends up (willingly or not) associating with them and their antics.

Dr. Weird
Voiced by C. Martin Croker, Dr. Weird is a mad scientist who lives in an abandoned mental asylum on the perpetually rainy Jersey Shore that shows up at the cold openings of the first three seasons. Dr. Weird did not appear on the show again until the eighth season, but some episodes have a picture of him and Frylock in Frylock's room. The movie explains that it was Dr. Weird who created the Aqua Teens for the purpose of watching them crash into a brick wall, but this idea never became a reality. But in the end's twist, Dr. Weird was revealed to have been created by Frylock.
Steve
Steve, also voiced by C. Martin Croker, is Dr. Weird's assistant. Red-haired, wearing a lab coat and science goggles, is normally pictured holding and staring at a test tube. Steve often becomes the victim of mishaps with Weird's experiments, many resulting in his death or some kind of negative reaction.
George Lowe
George Lowe is a recurring character voiced by the voice actor with the same name (best known for providing the voice of Space Ghost on Space Ghost Coast to Coast). George made his first appearance in "Mail Order Bride" as a wedding DJ. He often appears as a cop, although he has also appeared as an actor, attorney, and repairman, among other roles.
The Mooninites
Ignignokt, who is voiced by Dave Willis, and Err, who is voiced by Matt Maiellaro, are two-dimensional 8-bit aliens from the Moon; Belonging to a race known as the Mooninites. Ignignokt is the calmer, green leader and Err is the smaller, quick-tempered, pink sidekick. The two are extremely arrogant, and often claim to be superior to anyone who lives on Earth, despite never giving a reason for their alleged superiority and in reality is quite the opposite. When pressed by Frylock, they claimed they are superior because they can "jump really high" due to the lower gravity of the Moon compared to the Earth, something they promptly fail at doing. A running gag of how whenever the duo use their weaponry, the projectiles they fire will move at a ridiculously slow speed.
The Plutonians
Oglethorpe, who is voiced by Andy Merrill, and Emory, who is voiced by Mike Schatz, are two spiked aliens from Pluto. Oglethorpe is the fat, orange, dumber leader with a German accent (who resembles a slice of cheese) and Emory is the green, smarter one with a headband (who resembles a shred of lettuce); however, their Master Shake "clone", Major Shake, states the obvious fact that "they're [both] really stupid." Oglethorpe appeared in the 2018 Dr. Demento album Dr. Demento Covered in Punk.[2]
MC Pee Pants
Voiced by MC Chris, MC Pee Pants is a criminally insane rapper who wears a shower cap and a diaper. He takes different forms (a giant spider, a cow, a decrepit old man, among others) in each appearance and is usually killed and sent to Hell over and over again and is occasionally sent back to the mortal world by Satan in continuously pathetic forms. His rap albums contain (not so) subliminal messages in order to get his fans (just Meatwad, and Carl on one occasion) to assist in his outlandish world domination schemes. MC Pee Pants appeared in the 2018 Dr. Demento album Dr. Demento Covered in Punk.[2]
Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future
Voiced by Matt Maiellaro, the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future is a crazy robot that starts long, nonsensical stories with "thousands of years ago...", with fog always appearing out of nowhere in whichever location when he begins to tell his stories.
Dr. Wongburger
Voiced by Tommy Blacha, Dr. Wongburger is an insane alien scientist. He appears in the episodes "Dickesode", "Creature from Plaque Lagoon", and "Hands on a Hamburger". His running storyline is that the various establishments he runs are actually fronts for his plan to build a spaceship so that he can return to his home planet. He takes on various forms in all of his appearances, from a phallic shape, a giant tooth, and a giant hamburger.
Boxy Brown
Voiced by Dave Willis in the series, and Killer Mike in Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm, Boxy Brown is a friend of Meatwad's, but can talk in an African-American voice. He is a cardboard box with an afro and face. Unlike the other talking characters, his mouth does not move while he talks and only those to whom he talks can hear him. Along with being an American icon, Boxy Brown is also a sensation in both of the Koreas.[further explanation needed]
Markula
Voiced by Matt Maiellaro, Markula is a vampire and the Landlord of the Aqua Teens and Carl. He appears in the episodes "Robots Everywhere", "Sirens", "Couple Skates", "Vampirus", and "The Greatest Story Ever Told". He also appears in the direct-to-video movie Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm. In the first couple of episodes of season five, Markula had demons kidnap the Aqua Teens, because he refused to fix a gas leak, so they refused to pay for October's rent. In those episodes Carl received new neighbors that irritated Carl and, in the same breath, overjoyed Markula. Markula also has the power to mutate living things by biting them. Markula was eventually killed by Carl with a bottle of garlic champagne in the episode "Couples Skate" exclaiming "Open wide, jackass!". He was 4,040 years old. In the very next episode (Reedickyoulus), Frylock said "Finally, I keep telling and telling our landlord" even though Markula was dead at the time. Somehow Markula survived, because he shows up in a season 8 episode in which he and a bunch of bats have a virus that affects Carl, but not Shake.

At first, Shake managed to convince him to start off with Meatwad's dog Bobby (which was originally Shake's dog before it started attacking him in response to his abuse), but later ends up eating Carl, after Freedom Cobra suggested they eat Meatwad (whom Shake did not want to eat out of fear of getting into trouble). Shake later told Frylock and Meatwad the truth after Frylock discovered Carl's hand. They took Shake to the doctor to get the tattoo surgically removed, but Freedom Cobra forced the doctor to cut off his hands so he and Shake could eat them. He also had the doctor give Shake plastic surgery apparently so no one can tell Shake's sad, after he is done eating them. It appears in the episode "Freedom Cobra".[12]

Although nice and friendly to everyone else he "mindlinks" with Carl and rapes him repeatedly throughout the episode.

- Happy Time Harry (David Cross) – A mean, cynical, and depressed doll Frylock bought for Meatwad due to his low price of $3.99.

When threatened by Master Shake and Frylock, he begs them to put him out of his misery. He has a receding hairline and wears only a pair of boxers and little red dancing shoes. He has a retractable knife in place of his missing hand, which he claims his father gave him. He was thrown of a cliff by Master Shake at the end of "Dumber Dolls"[15] but was later killed by Frylock in "The Last One".[6]
- Hoppy Bunny (Scott Adsit) – A furry whose fursona is a pink bunny with a crown on it.

In his day job, he is a surgeon.[16]
- Inflatable Hitler (Bill Hader) – Adolf Hitler in the form of a balloon, the result of an attempt to smuggle his Nazi memorabilia in a balloon placed in his rectum, the balloon's pop killing him and fusing his soul into it. Frylock worked for him for a brief time, somewhat unaware of his identity, until he found out that Hitler planned to get rid of Jews with an army of Aryan balloons (armed with the biological weapon Frylock designed to target Jews that he was having Frylock develop). Frylock and Master Shake try to pass off balloons filled with Shake's farts as the bio-weapon Frylock developed, but Hitler discovers their deception (having converted Meatwad to the Jewish faith in order to test the weapon out on him) and unleashes his balloon army on them; however, Frylock defeats them easily by popping them with the sharp end of his fry. Hitler then tells his origin story before the Aqua Teens manage to convince him to stop hating the Jews when he found out Adam Sandler (along several celebrities he liked) is a Jew, causing him to accept the Jews, even hugging Jewish Meatwad. However, he is popped and killed by Frylock when he redirects his hatred from the Jews to gay people. His only appearance on the show was in "Der Inflatable Fuhrer".[17]
- Insane-O-Flex – A transforming exercise machine created by Walter Melon. In the feature film, Carl sits in it when it is still in the form of a normal exercise machine. After Carl sits down, the machine transforms into a monster that straps Carl to it, and forces him to do an innumerable amount of reps, leaving Carl with a gigantic, chiseled body. The Insane-o-flex creates havoc throughout the whole town. However, its one weakness is horrible music through which it cannot "feel" rhythm. Master Shake destroys the Insane-o-flex by playing a horribly mediocre song called "Nude Love" from his new album. The Insane-o-flex is probably a girl, because it lays eggs. First appeared in the movie.
- Javier – Dr. Weird's Spanish speaking janitor. In Revenge of the Trees when Steve was mocking Dr. Weird, Javier tried to warn Steve of Dr. Weird's giant head popping out before Steve had his head bitten off.

His crown hat turns the lower half of anyone who wears it into a snake tail, as it did to Carl.
- Major Shake (Matt Harrigan) – a poorly made clone of Master Shake, created by Oglethorpe and Emory, and has a boombox sticking in his side.

Instead, Meatwad uses Carl's lamp to bring him to life á la Frosty the Snowman, at which point they go on a crime spree. Eventually he was killed by Frylock with a flamethrower.[24]
- Rudy – A giant baby who is worshiped as a god by the Flightless Birds of Death Island. He is encountered by the Aqua Teens (in episode 90: Eggball) when they embark on an expedition to acquire more metallic eggs to use as balls for Master Shake's custom built pinball machine. He later goes on a rampage and destroys his entire island, causing the Flightless Birds to speculate that he may be developmentally disabled.
