He loves sports (<a href="/wiki/New_York_Giants" title="New York Giants">New York Giants</a>, <a href="/wiki/New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">New York Mets</a>, <a href="/wiki/New_York_Rangers" title="New York Rangers">New York Rangers</a>, <a href="/wiki/New_York_Knicks" title="New York Knicks">New York Knicks</a>), shuns anything that might resemble sensitivity and often views his marriage as a competition or war, refusing to let Audrey "win" the upper hand at anything. He frequently complains about Audrey's work stories being boring, often forgets plans they have made or tasks she has asked him to complete and, on many occasions, embarrasses her publicly. He is also very frugal and extremely careful with his money – to the extent where he will buy socks in New Jersey to avoid paying additional tax on them – and tries to discourage Audrey from overspending while planning for their future. He often reminisces about his college days at <a href="/wiki/Syracuse_University" title="Syracuse University">Syracuse University</a>.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Megyn_Price" title="Megyn Price">Megyn Price</a> as Audrey Bingham (née Curtis), formerly from <a href="/wiki/Lincoln,_Nebraska" title="Lincoln, Nebraska">Lincoln, Nebraska</a>, an editor at <i>Indoor Living</i> magazine (before later resigning, briefly working as a hostess, and eventually working as a project manager at a gaming design company) and the assertive, modern wife of Jeff. She likes to do things on spur of the moment, such as when she buys furniture on the Internet or makes Jeff's shirts into a quilt. She tolerates her husband's insensitivity because she knows he is not malicious and will do whatever it takes to make the situation right once he realizes his mistake. As a couple, they both can be very condescending and manipulative towards each other, in order to gain the upper hand, and typically don't like to concede to the other that they were wrong, for example, they both repeatedly lied about their whereabouts during a weekend when Audrey's aunt was supposed to visit but fell ill and Jeff was supposed to be at a bachelor party weekend but the bride cancelled the wedding. They, however, often recognize where both were wrong and apologize. Audrey does not make fun of her friends as much as her friends make fun of each other, but she will frequently save her most-biting criticisms for Russell. She often insists that she is a "people person", but her attempts to prove it usually result in embarrassment, such as having a co-worker lodge a sexual harassment complaint against her. Audrey likes to think of herself as kind, cultured and smarter than her friends. She desperately wants to be liked by persons and/or impress them, but her attempts at being charitable and sociable often end in her becoming frustrated, either as a result of her own awkwardness or due to Jeff's manners. She and Jeff had a baby, Shea, via a surrogate, Brenda, after Audrey assumed she could never get pregnant, only to discover in the series finale that she is in fact pregnant with Jeff's child.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Oliver_Hudson" title="Oliver Hudson">Oliver Hudson</a> as Adam Rhodes, a sensitive and well-meaning – but extremely <a href="/wiki/Naive" class="mw-redirect" title="Naive">naive</a> – co-worker of Russell and Timmy, and Jennifer's fiancé throughout the series until they are married in the series finale. He is a neighbor of Jeff and Audrey, looks up to Jeff, and often acts on Jeff's relationship advice (which is hardened by years of marriage) to attempt to receive more frequent sexual relations with Jennifer. This usually results in making the situation worse for himself. As an example, he once revealed to Jennifer his strategies for avoiding her bad moods, because he was proud that Jeff considered them to be a good idea. Oftentimes because of his childlike naivete (almost borderline stupidity), people find it hard to explain things to him. He cannot keep secrets and rarely thinks before he speaks. Adam frequently exhibits feminine or flamboyant behavior and characteristics, which make him the target of many barbs from Jeff and Russell regarding his tendencies. Adam, initially, was simply a smooth, charming guy who was only a bit simple, but over the course of the series, noticeably after Season 2, the writers opted to "dumb-down" his character turning him from naive and sweet to borderline moronic and dim-witted.<sup id="cite_ref-imdb.com_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-imdb.com-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bianca_Kajlich" title="Bianca Kajlich">Bianca Kajlich</a> as Jennifer Morgan, the charismatic live-in fiancée and eventual wife of Adam, who endures his faults because of his good looks and underlying good nature. She is very self-conscious of his naivete, and will often try to spare him from embarrassment. She also has a need for thrills and can easily manipulate Adam into doing whatever she wants, but often feels guilty about it afterward. She was openly promiscuous in her past<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and is often referred to by Jeff, Russell and even Adam as being "easy" and always "good to go". Her love for sex means Adam rarely has to "work for it", a fact that Adam enjoys and the guys envy. Jennifer did, however, attempt to fabricate a clichéd love story of how she and Adam met, due to being slightly embarrassed when Adam continually boasts that they had sex together on their first date.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> She and Adam are often naive about their relationship as they typically assume they will not end up bickering and resenting each other like Jeff & Audrey, who often laugh at them for being so clueless and optimistic, and they think will be able to agree on everything. However, despite their best efforts, this often backfires specifically when they tried working together, cutting back on expenses or when they got into a big fight while trying to plan their entire future during a weekend getaway.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_Spade" title="David Spade">David Spade</a> as Russell Dunbar, an acerbic, narcissistic, <a href="/wiki/Lothario" title="Lothario">lothario</a> single friend of the main characters and boss of Adam and Timmy. Russell is fast-talking, and is an eternal optimist when it comes to women, often ignoring multiple sexual harassment lawsuits leveled against him. He is also an incompetent manager at his father's real estate and development business, Dunbar Industries. If left to his own devices and forced to fend for himself without assistance (e.g., from Timmy) he would completely destroy his office in minutes. He is often mocked because of his height (especially by Jeff), choice of wardrobe, hair style, and his penchant for <a href="/wiki/Prostitution" title="Prostitution">prostitution</a> (frequently alluded to, but never during the series is he shown to be with a prostitute) and young women with "daddy" issues. He also frequently uses his <a href="/wiki/Wealth" title="Wealth">wealth</a> to lure women and do whatever he wants. In the Season 6 episode "Audrey's Shower", Russell takes a break from women and starts to display many creative talents. It is revealed in a flashback that he was an intelligent child and a musical prodigy, until he saw his piano teacher's cleavage and wound up taking a different path in life. His favorite expression, spoken in a high-pitched voice after incredulous questions about his doing something outrageous, is: "I kinda did" (or, when mocking someone else – usually Timmy or Adam: "Ya kinda are"). In the series finale, Russell proposes to Timmy and marries him in order to help Timmy avoid deportation.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Adhir_Kalyan" title="Adhir Kalyan">Adhir Kalyan</a> as Timir "Timmy" Patel (recurring Season 3; regular cast from Seasons 4–7), whom Russell hires as his assistant. He is a mild-mannered man with a quick wit, often matching Russell's jabs in their verbal sparring. Although he is fluent in seven languages and holds an <a href="/wiki/Master_of_Business_Administration" title="Master of Business Administration">MBA</a> from <a href="/wiki/University_of_Oxford" title="University of Oxford">University of Oxford</a>, Timmy is often forced to do menial work or to solve Russell's trivial problems. While many of Russell's schemes disgust him, Timmy will often see them through so that he can enjoy Russell's comeuppance.
