List of The Wild Thornberrys characters

This is a complete listing of characters from the Nickelodeon animated television series "The Wild Thornberrys".

Main characters

Eliza Thornberry

Voiced by Lacey Chabert, the main character, who (unknown to her family Except Debbie) gained the ability to speak with animals after an encounter with an African shaman (as shown the episode "Gift of Gab", also dealing with why it's such a secret; this fact would be played on in the first film). Often portrayed as a geek, or a "supergeek"

Debbie Thornberry

Voiced by Danielle Harris, a "typical teenager" who longs for a normal suburban life, something that her parents' job deprives her of. Despite being rough aroung the edges, she does care for Eliza. After the Thornberrys movie, she became aware of Eliza's secret but if she tells anyone she'll become a baboon (at least, according to Eliza). It is shown in the episode "Chew by Sea" that Debbie suffers from chronic seasickness.

Sir Nigel Thornberry

Voiced by Tim Curry, travels around the world with his family making wildlife documentaries for his own show. He resembles Steve Irwin and David Attenborough, although he is actually English. He is easily excited, even in the face of danger, often yelling "Smashing!" (Even when he is diagnosed with chicken pox).

Marianne Thornberry (nee Hunter)

Voiced by Jodi Carlisle, wife of Nigel, she is his camerawoman. Marianne is a strong woman, often the voice of reason sometimes losing patience with Nigel. She is often the disciplinarian forcing Eliza to stay in the confines of the comvee, or forcing Debbie to study for her school work. Her mother appears on the show several times.

Darwin

Voiced by Tom Kane, a chimpanzee that travels with the family, who "belongs" to Eliza. He has a craving for cheese crunchies, especially newly discovered "Swiss" cheese crunchies. He was found by Eliza, and was the first animal she ever talked to. He always wants to stay on the safe side of things while Eliza is always in for the adventure.

Donnie

Voiced by Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Donald Michael Thornberry--better known as Donnie--is a feral boy who (as would be made known in their 2001 4-part telefilm, "Origin of Donnie") was raised by orangutans after his real parents were killed by poachers, before the Thornberrys adopted him, and who talks very wildly and incoherently.

Other family members

Tyler Tucker

Voiced by Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Eliza's cousin, who travelled with them in five episodes

Sophie and Frank Hunter

Voiced by Betty White and Edward Asner, Marianne's parents. Grandpa Frank only appeared in the episode "The Anniversary"

Radcliffe and Cordelia Thornberry

Voiced by Tim Curry and Lynn Redgrave, Nigel's parents. In "The Wild Thornberrys Movie", when they learn of Eliza's adventures with animals, Cordelia is a mean stuck up snob who immediately assumes that Eliza is wild and undesciplined, and fears she will injure herself one day, and arranges to have her sent off to boarding school.
