Premise
editThe series follows Remy, an adventurous 6-year-old girl with a unique best friend named Boo, who is a big, squishy, pink robot. Fueled by Remy's indomitable spirit and Boo's can-do attitude, their days in Dolphin Bay are filled with new adventures both big and small powered by two incredible imaginations. Through heartwarming, humorous and inventive storytelling, the characters discover their place in the world and learn that there is no greater power than the power of friendship.
Characters
editMain
edit- Remy (voiced by Ava Ro) is a little girl who is able to play guitar.
- Boo (voiced by Rob Tinkler) is Remy's robot pet and companion who resembles a quadruped creature. His abilities include flying by conjuring balloons from his back, shooting light-based confetti, or extending a robot arm with a certain tool to fix things. To recharge, Boo needs to either be in his charging pod, go into sleep mode, or in small doses receive hugs called "snuzzles" from Remy. Despite mostly mumbling, Boo is able to speak a few words.
Recurring
edit- Nikhil (voiced by Chris D'Silva) is an Indian boy who is one of Remy's human friends. He likes science fiction and reads comics related to it.
- Mia (voiced by Madison Abbott) is another one of Remy's human friend. Her mother bought her a dog toy from Japan, named Cutesoo. It is one of the pets in the show.
- Remy's Mom (voiced by Katie Griffin) is a marine biologist. She was interviewed once on TV.
- Remy's Dad (Mr. Kay) (voiced by Jonathan Tan) is a diner operator and runs a diner called Shrimpy's.
- Skipper Jack (voiced by Brad Adamson) is a fisherman.
- Poppy (voiced by Derek McGrath) is Remy's maternal grandfather and Boo's creator who lives in the lighthouse. As a boy, Poppy created a wind-up toy which would be the basis for Boo's design.
- Mr. Periwinkle (voiced by John Cleland) is Remy and Boo's snooty neighbor who lives on their opposite side of the street.
- Skylar (voiced by Gabby Clarke) is Remy's cousin who used to have the same interests as Remy but has adapted into the goth subculture when her old best friend Ava left Dolphin Bay.
- EB (voiced by Bryn McAuley) is Remy's friend who works at a milkshake stand. She has pink hair. The official article about the show mentions her as an honorary sister to Remy. What her name stands for is never explained.
Pets
edit- Beans is Remy's pet cat.
- Cutesu is Mia's high-tech toy dog that almost has a mind of its own. He almost only barks, but at times says "I love you!"
- Peaches is Mr. Periwinkle's pet poodle with no definite gender.[note 1]
