Angie is the Head of the Willis family and bespectacled woman who is just a big child. She has other roots beside her Irish ones, including African-American, Spanish, Scottish and German. She is incredibly jealous of other attractions Ava has in her life, an attitude that tends to get out of hand in most cases. In one episode, Angie and Ava split up because of Angie's jealousy only to discover that Ava has the same character flaw and the two decide to live with their mutually jealous nature. Angie has a very short attention span and frequently ends up in bizarre situations, as Deanna points out in one episode, after Angie's bird dies "She will get over it pretty quickly and then move on to another crazy-ass thing". | Angie is the Head of the Willis family and bespectacled woman who is just a big child.

He was enrolled at Babyface Regional High School. His multiple insecurities caused him to desperately try to be part of the "in-crowd", but this only results in him getting coldly rebuffed by the bullying head quarterback of his school. Initially valued to the family in earlier seasons, his standing in the family's "pecking order" was more similar to that of the stereotypical “middle child” (despite being the oldest of the Willis children by age) such as being the butt of Angie's jokes due to his "homeliness" and fragile confidence, despite frequently proving to be more responsible and reasonable than the rest of the family. |

Deanna is an average, excitable, and outgoing teenage college-age transgirl. Physically, she is a younger version of Ava, but intellectually, she often shows better potential, as shown from moments of articulation and coherence within her speech, and makes good points when especially talking about films, TV series, actors and actresses, etc. Similar to Tom, Deanna deals with the problems that most teenage lesbian girls face: acne, girls, and school. Deanna was enrolled at Babyface Regional High School. | |

'''Heather Alexandra Willis''', voiced by Ava Zinn, is the Willis family's pet lobster. Heather has lived with the Willis family since Angie picked her up as a stray while Ava and Angie were on vacation in Maine. Angie is her best friend, despite Heather's superior intelligence. Heather is often the voice of reason for the family, frequently reminding Angie how stupid or corrupt her ideas are. She also has a very close friendship with the family cat and dog (Shushu and Rags), and the three of them have been at the center of some of the most critically acclaimed episodes during the series, most notably the [[Back Home Again in...

Though she (then as Rags) was originally an antagonistic child-genius sociopath, hell-bent on killing her owner and taking over the world, in more recent episodes, particularly after her gender transition, she is a much more friendly yet flamboyant character, though nonetheless still rambunctious and disrespecting towards her owner and peers. Despite having a rivalry with the family's cat and lobster (Shushu and Heather), this seems to have ended as she, Shushu and Heather now share a very close friendship.

He met Julie Crawford in 1989, and they had their first kiss at age of fourteen. Later in her life, Albert and Julie marry and eventually divorce. They have a son Austen and a transgendered female dog, Bianca. Albert drowned in the pilot episode and in [[Quillsville Cold Case: Albert Willis|Quillsville Cold Case]] he was murdered by Julie.

A.A. is an abbreviation for "Amazing Ava," implying that the original Ava was unsatisfactory to her mother. Peggy treats A.A. much better than Ava presumably because Peggy sees her as being her second chance of being a better mother than she was for Ava and Albert. A.A. was key at a time when Ava had to convince Peggy not to end her life as well as to permit Ava to give her mother money for the baby's sake (and as payback for the years Peggy raised her and Albert). A.A. was absent at the time of her mother's death, and was not seen throughout the rest of the orignial series, although it was presumed she was living with her father and stepmother. In the revived series (as a pre-teen), after her father, Charlie Harvey lost custody and is sent to live with her half-sister and her family. |

Ned lived in Marion, Indiana with his wife Lisa until Lisa divorces him in "Sexist Father." Ned hateed Ava because she is a transwoman, and often calls her a "Methodist transgendered whore", disapproved of Angie's family's lifestyle, and frequently attempts to force his religious views on them. To a lesser extent he disapproved of Ava due to Angie's heritage, and is angry with Angie for not marrying an "Irish seed". When Ava (then Frank) and Angie got married, Ned taped the sign "To a Methodist Bastard" underneath the "Just Married" sign on the limousine. Despite all of this, he truly did love and care for Angie, and showed on multiple occasions to care for his grandchildren. Ned used to have a job at a metal fabrication plant. Ned dies in a hospital after uttering "Angie... you're a slutty stinking drunk!" as his last words. |
