Plot[]

Five extra-terrestrials from the planet Zigma B, Candy, Etno, Gorgious, Stereo and Bud go on a picnic together in space. However, their spaceship crashes into an asteroid, and they fall to planet Earth. They realize that if any human finds out that they're aliens, they could be experimented on, so they take shelter in a house for rent.

The aliens have two goals: Return to their home planet, Zigma-B, and chase anybody away who tries to establish themselves in the house.

Characters[]

Space Goofs - The Aliens in Season 1 Intro

The main characters of Space Goofs left to right: Stereo, Bud, Candy, Etno, and Gorgious.

  • Candy Caramella: Small and green with a wrinkled forehead and wearing a polka-dotted apron. Candy is the uptight neatfreak, tomgirl member of the group. He gets in touch with his feminine side by sometimes disguising himself as a woman. In the Latin American version aired on Jetix, Candy's gender is female. Candy's voice was done by Charlie Adler.
  • Etno Polino: Short and purple with red lips and a big nose, Etno is the brains and leader of the group. A scientific genius, he creates all sort of machines. In the original French version, he speaks with an English accent. Etno's voice was done by Maurice LaMarche. By coincidence, LaMarche was also the voice behind the character of "The Brain" from Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs.
  • Bud Budiovitch: Tall and orange with three strands of hair, a long neck and big bloodshot eyes, Bud is lazy and naive. He acts as the teenager of the group which makes him somewhat adolescent. He is a television addict and spends most of the time sitting in front of it and drinking soft drinks. Like Etno, Bud is always the last one to panic in a situation. He always comes up with the best solution but most of the time no one will listen to him. Bud's voice was done by Jeff Bennett in Season 1 and Louis Garneau in Season 2.
  • Gorgious Klatoo: Fat and blue with a heavy chin and a protruding tooth, Gorgious is the grumpy and brutal one. He is very greedy and his hobby consists of bullying the others and eating. Gorgious' voice was done by Danny Mann and originally Michael Sicoly in Season 1. His last name is likely a reference to Klaatu.
  • Stereo Monovici: Two-headed and red, Stereo acts as two people since each head has its own mind. "He" is pretty much the bookworm of the group, yet wastes his intelligence on the most useless information often. He often argues with himself. Stereo was removed from season two of the show because several viewers and even Xilam Studios described him as "a very weak character" except for the only two episodes, UFO and Other World Champs. Both heads are voiced by Jeff Bennett.
