The College Years Of Eddie Horton cast

[Race's Girl]

Eddie

Full Name: Edward Russell Horton
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Frank and Sarah Horton
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Eddie, the title character, is the poster child for "teen smart guy" and holds in high contempt what he sees as the deepness and cool of the world around him. He is also brave -- though he'd say he's "realistic" -- and mistrustful of authority and doesn't hesitate to make his opinions known when he sees fit. He has a talent for writing, a sharp intellect, an even sharper tongue and a wit so dry it makes the Sahara look like a rain forest.

In spite of all that, however, he does have his vulnerable spots. For several years, one of those soft spots used to be an old school friend of his, Britanny Boviac. And why not? An alien cheerleader, who just also happened to be a "total cutie"... her very presence would have left him speechless and a mere look from her would have convinced him to do almost anything (even get a navel ring). However, Eddie's cosntant thinking about girls eventually got him in trouble with the adults and his friend Lloyd Nebulon and he and Brittany are now good friends.

Eddie is now dating Terri Lake, who's his intellectual equal as well as a member of one of Space City's wealthy elite though it didn't come about easily. It's a steady relationship -- both are hampered by a lack of experience with relationships, particularly Eddie -- but a good one overall. Whether their relationship will survive graduation, however, remains to be seen.

Status at begining of series: Graduated from Intrepidville High, receiving the Dian Fossey Award for "dazzling academic achievement in the face of near-total misanthropy." Accepted into the freshman class at Space City College. Will undoubtedly continue to have more adventures with Lloyd, who was accepted into the freshman class at nearby Intrepidville Fine Arts College.

Eddie on himself: Born cool. The world is my oyster... and I just seemed to get it open.

Voice: Eddie's voice is performed by Justin Shenkarow who did the same when Eddie was in Lloyd In Space.

[Race's Girl]

Kelly

Full Name: Kelly Morgendorffer
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Gordon and Farrell Morgendorffer
Siblings: Lara
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Kelly is the person you would get if you hang put with Eddie, shaved off a dozen or so I.Q. points, and gave her an obsession with fashion, boys and popularity. She wraps up in one stuck-up, too-cute, self-absorbed package everything that Eddie holds in disdain. She dates as many boys as she can but, paradoxically, she seems to have a real fear of intimacy; she won't even let a boy slow-dance with her unless it's Eddie. That doesn't seem to affect her ability to get dates, however, as almost every guy she meets tends to fall all over her (with one notable exception).

There are moments in which Kelly reveals that she's not quite the airhead she appears to be but for the most part, her intelligence is geared mainly towards what is most important to her: namely, being cute and popular. However, by the start of her Freshman year, this began to change; after a summer of tutoring, she discovered that she actually has a functioning brain under all that makeup and bouncy hair and has begun to use it... within limits, of course.

For years, Kelly was terminally embarrassed at having Lara -- a "brain" (ewww!) -- for a sister. She would tell everyone that she and Lara were cousins, distant relatives... anything but sisters. However, her tolerance and respect for Eddie and Lara grew steadily over the years, particularly after her summer tutoring. This finally culminated in her public admission to her friends of her true relationship to Lara. It was the most significant moment of personal growth Lara had ever shown but the ironic thing is, her friends had known all along that they were sisters; they were just being polite about it!

It's a safe bet that if Kelly ever discovered her true potential, her lethal combination of looks and brains would make her a very formidable person indeed!

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Became Vice President of the Space City College Fashion Club. Developed a crush on Eddie.

Eddie on Kelly: How lucky can I get -- to have such an attractive and popular chick? Hold the phone, Lloyd.

Voice: Quinn's voice is performed by Wendy Hoopes, who also did the voice of Quinn Morgendorffer in Daria and also does the voices of Kelly and Sally.

Trivia

During the first three episodes, Kelly's shirt is a pink baby T-shirt with short sleeves, a yellow smiley face on the chest and plenty of midriff showing and a pair of blue jeans. Starting with episode four, she wears a pink 3/4 length sleeved top with matching capri pants.

[Race's Girl]

Jane

Full Name: Jane Westlake
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: John and Ginger Westlake
Siblings: Valentina, Virgil, Edward and Buzz
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Jane is Eddie's best friend. They met during a self-esteem class at Space City College which Jane has already taken six times (she could have easily passed the class but having low self-esteem "made her feel special"). Like Eddie, Jane is cool, intelligent, and talented (she is a budding artist) but she is also a little more open to the world around her. She enjoys running and once joined her High School track team... briefly.

Like any good artist, Jane constantly explores the passionate and emotional side of the world which usually translates into exploring -- sometimes impulsively -- various romantic possiblities with boys (Jimmy Young, Adam Stevens, Tom Davison and Eddie). Her emotional nature tends to get the better of her, unfortunately and is part of the reason why her only long-term relationship (with Tom) ended -- disastrously. Her relationship with Eddie finally was resolved when he dated Terri Lake and she now appears to be (mostly) comfortable with her best friend dating her arch rival... though, of course, she doesn't miss an opportunity to tease both of them about it.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Is friends wih Eddie despite him dating Terri Lake.

Eddie on Jane: Artiste extraordinaire and pizza fiend. Believes paint-by-number kits are inherently evil.

Voice: Jane's voice is performed by Melissa Joan Hart who is best remembered as Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

[Race's Girl]

Terri

Full Name: Theresa Ann Lake
Current Age: 18
Siblings: Marie
Parents: Edmund and Crystal Lake
Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
First Appearance: Esteemers

Terri is a member of one of Space City's wealthiest families. She went to a prep school as a child and looks every every inch the part of a "spoiled rich brat." That's where the stereotype ends, however, as her every action is designed to downplay the fact that he comes from a rich family (even going far as to drive a "junker" car... a rusted Ford Pinto at first then a Jaguar that's in only slightly better shape). Her rebellious streak even leads him to explore life on the "other side of the tracks" which is where she met Jane and Eddie... an event that would eventually turn her world upside down.

Charming, intelligent, and a quick wit (with a sarcastic streak that's second to none), Terri's charms lead him to a relationship with Eddie although Jane has a big dislike for her... not exactly Terri's finest moment though Eddie does play a pretty significant role. They all reconcile their differences eventually and Terri and Eddie settled into a slow, steady relationship (and she even manages to try to be nice to Jane).

From Terri's point of view, her relationship with Eddie is definitely a challenge. She gets along well with him most of the time but like most College girls (well, any age, really), she tends to be somewhat clueless and will say and do things that Eddie takes the wrong way. Even with something isn't her fault, though, dealing with Eddie seems to take an extraordinary amount of patience. To her credit, she appears to have dug in for the long haul though how long a haul it is remains to be seen, what with graduation fast approaching.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Had a big dislike for Jane. Dated Eddie for the first time.

Voice: Terri's voice is performed by Erin Moran, who is best remembered as Joanie Cunningham in Happy Days.

Trivia

Terri's full name was revealed when Jane yelled at her for the first time.

[Race's Girl]

Andrea

Full Name: Andrea
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Andrea (pronounced ahn-DREY-ah) is, quite simply, the "goth chick." Little is known about her, but her manner of dress (dark eyeliner, gray shirt, long gray skirt, fishnet glove on one hand... that is, when she's not working as a stock clerk at her parent-enforced job at the local warehouse store) and her quiet demeanor all scream "dark." In fact, if her poetry is any indication, she could give Eddie a run for his money in the "bleak outlook on life" department. She is in several of Eddie's classes and has developed something of a cult following among the fans with many of them hanging on her every non-syllable.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. First seen in the company of Virgil after accepting one of his typical come-ons at the college's Freshman party.

Voice: Andrea's voice is performed by Sophia Myles who played Lady Penelope in the 2004 movie Thunderbirds.

Trivia

Andrea's last name is never revealed on the series which seems to be in keeping with her rather mysterious persona.

[Race's Girl]

Sally

Full Name: Sally Foster
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Steve and Shelley Foster
Siblings: Johnny
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Sally is Space City College's resident "airhead alien." She is the head of the varsity cheerleading squad, which is practically the only thing she's good at since she's about as bright as a three watt light bulb. (Thinking is definitely not her strong suit; whenever she's confused, her usual response is a pathetic "Eep!" as her brain seizes up.) Her favorite activities include cheering, parties, shopping, her boyfriend Larry, twirling her hair around her finger with a vacant look in her eyes and listening to the soothing sound of the wind blowing between her ears. She and Eddie are acquaintances though Eddie would probably hesitate to call her a "friend."

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Accepted into the cheerleader squad. Still going out with Larry.

Eddie on Sally: Larry's main squeeze. Sugar and spice and Cosmo advice.

Voice: Sally's voice is performed by Erin Moran who also voices Kelly and Sally.

Trivia

Sally's last name is revealed in episode 2.
Shelley is first seen in episode 2. Her first speaking part is in episode 3.
Steven is first seen in episode 3.
Johnny is first seen in episode 3. His first speaking part is in episode 5.

[Race's Girl]

Judy

Full Name: Judith Alison Layton
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Andrew and Marion Layton
Siblings: Eddie and Rosie
First Appearance: The Dance

Every school has its model student... and Judy qualifies as three of them. She's intelligent and popular, a condition that violates more than a few natural laws. She never met an extracurricular activity she didn't like; as President of the French Club, Vice President of the Student Council, President of the Honor Society, editor of the yearbook and a member of the tennis team, Judy is the see-all do-all student. Underneath that picture perfect exterior, however, is a significant (but well-hidden) layer of frustration and resentment. Due to her being practically the only Cerabellian student at Space City College and to the constant pressure to achieve from her parents, she feels she must be Miss Perfect Student in order to set an example for others. Eddie is a friend of Judy's and in some ways is also a role model for her as Eddie generally says and does whatever she likes... something that Judy wishes she could do more often.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College as valedictorian. Is the College's Student Body President. Still going out with Marty.

Eddie on Judy: Marty's steady date. Does everything by the book and returns it to the library on time.

Voice: Judy's voice is performed by Cathy Cavadini who voices Blossom in the Powerpuff Girls.

Trivia

Judy's last name is revealed in episode 3.
Andrew and Marion are first seen in epiosde 6.
Eddie (Judy's little brother) and Rosie are also first seen in episode 6.

[Race's Girl]

Larry

Full Name: Larwence Blobertson
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Doug and Charlene Blobertson
First Appearance: Esteemsters

What goes well with an airhead cheerleader? A dumb jock, of course! Larry is the quarterback of the Space City College varsity football team and has apparently been through one too many practices without his helmet. He has no brains and no clue which makes him the perfect match for Sally. He is almost never out of his football uniform, probably because he'd be hopelessly confused about what else to wear. Eddie tolerates him as best he can, though his I.Q. no doubt reminds him of his former nemesis, Rodney Glaxer (and who would want to live through that again?).

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Still going out with Sally.

Eddie on Larry: Sally's half-baked love muffin. He's the BMOC. Too bad he has no idea what it stands for.

Voice: Larry's voice is performed by Philip Winchester who played Scott Tracy in the 2004 movie Thunderbirds.

Trivia

Larry's last name is revealed in episode 4.
Doug and Charlene are first seen in episode 6.

[Race's Girl]

Marty

Full Name: Martin Jordan MacKenzie
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Daria and Franklin MacKenzie
First Appearance: The Dance

Marty is, like his girlfriend Judy, intelligent and popular, despite the fact that he's a jock. He is the captain of the Space City College varsity football team, which means he constantly has to put up with Larry's stupidity. He and Eddie get along well -- it helps that he's almost as cynical as she is -- and he's an all-around cool guy... but do not call him "Big M!"

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Told Eddie he had a fear of heights. Still going out with Judy.

Eddie on Marty: Judy's boyfriend and captain of the football team. Has to tolerate Larry who has taken a few too many hits to the head.

Voice: Marty's voice is performed by Matthew Perry, who is best remembered as Chandler Bing in Friends.

Trivia

Marty's full name is revealed in episode 4.

[Race's Girl]

Virgil

Full Name: Virgil Charles Henley
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Russell Henley
First Appearance: The Dance

Virgil is a person that raises being a geek to an art form. He's also the College's #1 ladies man and is thoroughly convinced that he's God's gift to women. Virgil's standards are only slightly higher than his success rate (which is at absolute 100); His catch phrase is "Hey, Baby!" Listen for it and be excited.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. First seen in the company of Andrea, who had accepted one of his typical come-ons at the Freshman college party.

Eddie on Virgil: Would be the love child of Jerry Lewis and James Bond, were such a thing possible.

Voice: Virgil's voice is performed by Jason Marsden, who played Rich in Step By Step.

Trivia

Virgil's last name is revealed in episode 2.
Virgil's mother passed on when he was 10 years old.

[Race's Girl]

Sandra

Full Name: Sandra Nebula
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
Parents: Terrence and Philipa Nebula
Siblings: Sadie and Clark
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Sandra is the President of the Fashion Club, and takes her leadership role very seriously (well, as seriously as she is able). Her deep voice is exceeded only by her very deep jealousy of Kelly, whom she feels is a threat to her standing both in the Fashion Club and on the popularity scene. In fact, there seems to be growing evidence that Sandra is the way she is largely due to Eddie's influence.

Despite her predatory ways, there's growing evidence that her hold on the Fashion Club is starting to slip: Kelly is showing signs of greater independence (perhaps because now that she's getting smarter, she knows that she doesn't have to rely on the Fashion Club as much) and Sadie is growing more of a backbone, allowing her to stand up to Sandra's bullying tactics more often. And even Sandra herself may be changing somewhat: her recent bout with weight gain showed her how much of a friend she really has in Kelly and that she could have more real friends if she treated people as potential allies, not as adversaries. Whether or not she'll seize the opportunity in front of her, however, remains to be seen.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Became President of the Space City College Fashion Club.

Eddie on Sandra: Her voice is deep. Her thoughts are not.

Voice: Sandra's voice is performed by Lori Alan, who did the voice for Pearl Krabs in Spongebob Squarepants.

Trivia

Sandra's last name was officially revealed in episode 2.
Philipa are first seen in episode 3. Terrance, Sadie and Clark are first seen in episode 4.
During the first three episodes, Sandra wears a light blue jumpsuit-type outfit. During the rest of the series, she wears a light blue shirt with a vertical red stripe and maroon slacks.

[Race's Girl]

Sadie

Full Name: Sadie Lee
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
First Appearance: Esteemsters

Sadie is the Secretary of the Fashion Club. She is deeply insecure, and appears to have no personality of her own. As such, she pretty much lives vicariously through the other Fashion Club members, particularly Kelly (one time, she even dresses exactly like Kelly and wants them to dye their hair the same color). Sadie is also highly emotional and has been known to go into panic attacks so bad that she starts hyperventilating. When it comes to the power struggle between Sandra and Kelly, Stacy will usually try to take Kelly's side but more often than not is cowed into submission by Sandra. However, this appears to be changing: the frustrations of trying to run the Fashion Club with the self-absorbed Angela (after Sandra and Kelly temporarily resigned) caused Sadie to blow up at the poor girl. This little brush with self-confidence seems to have manifested itself in the ability to stand up for herself... but not all the time, of course.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Became secretary of the Space City College Fashion Club.

Eddie on Sadie: Shows her navel. Says nothing novel.

Voice: Sadie's voice is performed by Lori Alan, who also voices Sandra.

Trivia

Sadie's last name is mentioned in episode 2.
During the first three episodes, Sadie wears (with only minor variations) a denim skirt and a light blue shirt showing plenty of midriff. Starting with episode 4, she wears a dark blue jacket, a matching skirt and a yellow T-shirt.

[Race's Girl]

Angela

Full Name: Angela Pepper-Cox
Current Age: 18
Current Vocation: Freshman at Space City College
First Appearance: The Dance

Angela is the Coordinating Officer, charged with making sure that the Fashion Club members do not wear clothes that clash with each other (she also appears to be the accessorizing expert). Her unofficial role, however, is that of "yes man," as she will always side with either Sandra or Kelly, depending on who happens to be winning at the time. She is also pathologically insecure about her looks and her weight -- if one day she simply dried up and blew away, she'd still consider herself to be "too fat" -- and if her speech patterns are any indication, she's either learning-disabled, heavily medicated, or really hard pressed to keep up with the world around her. How she manages to get through the day is a mystery; a stint as Fashion Club president (when Sandra resigned when she gained weight after breaking her leg) showed that she's hard-pressed to think of anything other than herself.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College. Became Coordinating Officer of the Space City College Fashion Club.

Eddie on Angela: Purse on her shoulder. Little on her mind.

Voice: Angela's voice is done by Wendy Hoopes, who also voices Kelly and Sally.

Trivia

Angela's last name is mentioned in episode 2.
During the first three episodes, Angela wears a solid light blue dress with a necklace. Starting with episode four, she wears a pink skirt and a matching polo neck.
At the beginning of the series, Angela's voice has a "Valley Girl" quality to it, and she speaks normally. By epsidoe 3, it assumes its current glacially-slow, "vacant airhead" quality.

[Race's Girl]

The Three J's

The Three J's -- Jerry, Johnny and Jamie -- are the lead horses in Kelly's stable of admirers. Ever having to go to Space City College which is about 25 miles away from Intrepidville? Same here, only they probably didn't constantly buy you things and beg to do things for you. They probably never continually fought with each other for your attentions, either.

The J's are all Freshmen at Space City College and are on the crushball team and their constant grovelling at Kelly's feet is pathetic to the point of weird... not that Eddie is about to discourage it, of course! Jerry is saddled with an additional burden, in that no one can seem to remember his name. He's been called Jimmy, Joey, Jeffy, Jude; any name beginning with J, he's been called it.

Status at beginning of series: Graduated to Space City College.

Eddie's guide to telling them apart: Jerry's the dude with dark eyes who Kelly sure impresses. Johnny's the blue eyed dude who thinks Kelly's a babe. Jamie's the one with the green eyes who loves Kelly so fair.

Voices: Jamie's voice is performed by Justin Shenkarow who also voices Eddie. Jerry's voice is performed by Dan Castellaneta who voices Homer in the Simpsons. Johnny's voice is performed by Johnny Hardwick who also voices Dale in King of the Hill.

Trivia

Jerry and Jamie's last names have never been revealed. Johnny's last name (Paris) is revealed in episode 6.

[Race's Girl]

Prof. Berker

Full Name: Julia Berker
Age: Mid 40's
Vocation: Science teacher at Space City College
First Appearance: The Lab Brat

Prof. Berker is the Science Teacher From Hell. She's just as crabby as Eddie's 7th Grade teacher Mrs. Bolt but her attitude stems from a very messy, very bitter divorce. As such, she has developed a rather healthy distaste for men (okay, she's a festering cauldron of hatred and resentment), which usually manifests itself by her giving the female students higher grades and favored treatment over the male students. The only man that has been able to get through her armor -- inadvertently -- is Prof. Jordan and that's only because he (unlike the rest of his "disgusting, war-mongering sex") displays and shares his feelings.

Eddie on Prof. Berker: Hypothesis: Bitter divorce results in intense resentment of all males. Of any species.

Voice: Prof. Berker's voice is performed by Cree Summer who also voices Numbah 5 and Cree in Codename: Kids Next Door.
