The new tv show Click and Clack is pretty good, especially considering
it's animated.

I know who Click and Clack are, but am I supposed to know who the
other characters are, the girl, the black guy, the well-dressed guy,
the old lady, the Slavic mechanic? Are they on the radio show at all,
or what?

The radio show doesn't really have regular characters other than C&C
themselves. They do talk about their parents, their sister, and one
of Ray's mechanics (Crusty) from time to time, and on occasion they
mention other friends and relatives. But the vast majority of the
time it's just Tom and Ray.



If you listen to the credits at the end of the radio show, you'll hear
a long list of other characters that are associated with the show -

Corporate Spokesperson: Hugh Lyon Sack
Communications Director: George Stayontopothis
Staff Meteorologist: Gail Storm



From the Click & Clack t-shirt somebody gave me:

Our shop foreman is Luke Bizz
Our proofreader is Erin Spelling
Our new truck receiver is Zbigniew Rigg
Our puzzler tester is Otis S. Hard
Our staff cooks are Al Dente and Sal Monella
Our staff geneticist is Dr. Jean Poole
And of course, our chief counsel, from the firm of Dewey,
Cheatham and Howe, is Hugh Louis Dewey



For those who haven't had the p;easure of strolling through Harvard
Square in Cambridge, MA, the name of that law firm has been emblazoned
on a third floor office window for many years:
