This is a list of characters that appear in the animated television show Franklin .
Main article: Franklin (TV series)Franklin and Sister
- Franklin Turtle - The show's lead character, Franklin tends to be very kind and he has a large circle of friends, but also tends to keep things to himself at times. Franklin's friends and his parents generally help to bring out the best in him, and he's also now a big brother (something he alleges to have previously claimed he wanted to be). He takes good care of his pet goldfish, Goldie, and also has a stuffed dog named Sam who, despite growing older, he still hangs onto and communicates with. Franklin enjoys math. Bear, and to a lesser degree, Snail are among his best friends. He is both afraid of and fascinated by thunder and lightning, although sharing this fear with his friends helped him marginally. He is capable of fully removing his shell as apparently all turtles in the show are; his shell is a combination of clothing and backpack. He sometimes wears a hat and also wears a small red scarf around his neck. Noah Reid provided the voice of Franklin for the first five seasons of the television program. In the sixth season and Back to School with Franklin movie, Cole Caplan (who previously had a small role as the one-shot guest voice of Squirrel) voiced him. Cameron Ansell replaced Caplan as the voice in the U.S.-language version of the Franklin and the Turtle Lake Treasure film.
- Harriet Turtle - Harriet is Franklin's younger sister. She has a happy, outgoing personality and loves running around and playing fun games. She really looks up to Franklin and often doesn't understand when Franklin gets annoyed at some of the things she does. Still, she and Franklin generally get along most of the time and Harriet seems to picking up on Franklin's kindness. Franklin loves his little sister and spends time playing with her and teaching her. At one time, this leads him to overprotect her, but he stops altogether after receiving some helpful advice from his mother. Her best friend is Beatrice, who recently started attending preschool, so now she also spends time with Beaver's new little brother Kit. It's not certain at this point exactly how old Harriet is. She is born when Franklin and his friends are still in kindergarten, yet in the sixth season and Back to School with Franklin , she behaves at the physical and emotional level of a three-to-four year old, yet Franklin and his friends are only in first grade. In the fifth season and the "Franklin's Magic Christmas" special, Harriet speaks with a rather limited vocabulary and refers to Franklin as "Fwankin" or "Fwanklin." In "Back to School with Franklin" and the sixth season, her vocabulary has advanced some and she refers to Franklin by his proper name. Harriet is voiced by Bryn McAuley and can be heard speaking on the show in the fifth season and all subsequent specials. She is also voiced by Lizzie Waterworth in the UK version of this TV show.
Franklin's friends
- Badger - A shy individual afraid of public speaking, Badger is a friend of Beaver and Skunk, and uses crutches to get around. Despite this, she is apparently still capable of climbing; she can be seen in the treefort in the episode "Franklin's Picnic". It's never been officially said on the show, but according to the official Nelvana character description of her, Badger has cerebral palsy. Fox has a crush on her but it is unknown if she approves. Though afraid of public speaking, Badger is helpful, kind and loves to help out. Badger is voiced by Ruby Smith-Merovitz.
- Bear - Franklin's best friend. Despite being a bear, he is very docile and friendly. It takes a lot to get him mad, but those few times when he does get mad, he can stay angry for some time. Although Bear is considered to be gifted, there are several occasions where he can be spaced out and somewhat clueless with everyday knowledge and does not notice the obvious. Despite this, Bear is one of the more mature males of the show, such as times where he and Franklin are in the middle of a problem, Bear will try to resolve it with the truth, whereas Franklin will try to hide it. He has a large appetite, which earned him the derisive nickname "Snacks" in one television story. Bear can be described as very loyal to those he considers his friends. Honesty is also paramount with him --- he stops talking to Franklin for a fair amount of time after Franklin breaks a promise and spoils a secret. Bear is the strongest of Franklin's friends, and enjoys sports, particularly soccer. Bear is afraid of spiders. Beginning with the second season, Bear is usually seen wearing a blue vest unless he's swimming. This is in contrast to the other characters, who usually do not wear any sort of clothing (with the exception of Franklin, who is rarely seen without his cap and scarf.) Bear was voiced by Cody Jones in the first season of the show. Luca Perlman assumed the role for the second-fifth seasons. Mark McMulkin assumed the role for the Back to School with Franklin special and the sixth season.
- Beatrice "Bea" Bear - She's Bear's little sister and was introduced late in the first season. She only rarely appears on the series, but is learning a lot from Bear and is also Harriet's best friend. She stands slightly taller than Harriet and is rather strong --- she is capable of lifting Harriet up. Kristen Bone, who does the voice of Snail, provides the voice for Beatrice. Beatrice is also voiced by Susan Roman.
- Snail - Snail moves slowly, and consequently needs help from others often in order to get around, often by riding on Franklin's shell. He likes to do things himself, if he can, and Snail can became annoyed if given assistance when he hadn't asked for help. However, Snail usually appreciates Franklin's help and they are very good friends, with a lot in common. Snail considers Franklin to be his best friend, even though Franklin generally considers his best friend to be Bear. Snail is a very good (if rather slow) climber, once scaling a tall cliff to gather some crystals for the group. In one episode it was stated that it took Snail an hour to cross a short bridge across a stream. Since then, he's been training to crawl faster. Even though snails are in nature hermaphrodites, Snail is a male character. Snail is voiced by Kristen Bone.
- Beaver - Often overly sure of herself, Beaver sometimes shows hints of bossiness, boisterousness, and sarcasm, but is certainly one of the more intelligent of the group. Beaver is not overtly mean, though, and being with her generally more kind-tempered friends helps to keep her abrasiveness in check. Beaver likes to say things and then end with the line "everybody" knows that. Beaver is a know it all. She loves sports. Because of her personality, she can sometimes become self-conscious. She has buckteeth and can't help sometimes chewing on her pencils. Beaver has a pet hamster named Henry who appeared in the third season episode "Franklin and the Two Henrys." Beaver is voiced by Leah Cudmore.
- Kit - Beaver's younger brother was introduced in the most recent special. He tends to be rather shy and clingy, but seems to have come out of his shell a bit after meeting Harriet. Although he hasn't been seen together with Beaver, he seems to look up to her, as her going to back to school after summer vacation put him somewhat out of sorts. Kit is voiced by Amanda Soha.
- Fox - Sly and wily, Fox's daring nature sometimes causes him to get into trouble. In "Franklin is Lost," he led Franklin into playing a game of hide-and-seek with him in the woods and the two both became lost. In referencing to teenagers, Fox would be considered a Ladies Man . Fox has a crush on Badger and is often teased about it in some episodes. Fox seems to get along well with most of the boys. The only girl he is usually seen talking to a lot is Beaver. Stuart Landrell voiced Fox through all the seasons of the program.
- Goose - The best diver among Franklin's friends, Goose (a Canada Goose) is outgoing but easily startled. Franklin learns a bit more about Goose and her family when he attends her family's migration party. Goose has a little brother who wears glasses, a character that has only appeared once in the series to date. Olivia Garratt was the voice of Goose for the first five seasons. Vivien Endicott-Douglas assumed the role in the sixth season and Back to School with Franklin movie.
- Otter - Otter was once Franklin's best friend. She moves away in a story shown early in the program's first season. Otter comes for a visit in the second season, but the reunion is bittersweet, with the village not remaining the same as Otter remembered it. Otter was voiced by Sophie Lang in the first season of the show. Her return visit was voiced Marieve Herington.
- Rabbit - The best long jumper in the class, Rabbit is a jolly, somewhat goofy individual. Rabbit was voiced by Kyle Fairlie in the first five seasons and all specials/movies to date, but is voiced by Mitchell Eisner in the program's sixth season. (The Rabbit character does not appear in the Franklin and the Turtle Lake Treasure film.)
- Jackrabbit - A cousin of Rabbit's, either in his pre-teens or teenage years. Enjoys skateboarding, though is rarely seen in the show. He is also sometimes simply called "Jack," for a nickname. He is voiced by Tyrone Savage.
- Skunk - Very friendly and non-threatening, Skunk is frequently seen with Badger, Bea
