Lloyd in Space is a cool American animated TV show about a green-skinned alien boy named Lloyd Nebulon. He lives on a giant space station called Intrepidville. The show was created by Joe Ansolabehere and Paul Germain, who also made the popular cartoon Recess. It first aired on ABC on February 3, 2001, and quickly became a favorite. The series ran for four seasons, with its last episode airing on February 27, 2004.

Meet Lloyd and His Space Friends

This show takes place far in the future, after a big event called World War IX. Lloyd Nebulon is a 13-year-old alien from the Verdigrean race. He has green skin, pointy ears, and a single antenna sticking out of his head.

Lloyd lives on the Intrepidville Space Station with his family and friends. His little sister, Francine, has special powers like moving things with her mind (telekinetic) and reading thoughts (telepathic). Their mom, Commander Norah Li Nebulon, is the boss of the entire Intrepidville station!

Lloyd's best friends are a unique group:

  • Eddie R. Horton is a human teenager with red hair.
  • Kurt Blobberts is a huge purple blob with one eye. He's super friendly and a bit simple.
  • Douglas McNoggin is a giant brain with arms, legs, and a face. He's super smart!

Awesome Characters in Space

Let's meet the amazing characters who make Lloyd in Space so much fun!

Main Characters

  • Lloyd P. Nebulon (voiced by Courtland Mead) is the main character. He's a friendly 13-year-old alien who tries his best. Even though his mom is in charge of the space station, Lloyd and his friends are often seen as the "dorks" at Luna Vista Middle School. They sometimes end up in embarrassing situations, especially because of the more popular kids. Lloyd has a secret crush on Brittany Boviak, the head cheerleader.
  • Commander Nora Li Nebulon (voiced by April Winchell) is Lloyd and Francine's mom and the leader of Intrepidville. She's strict but also very loving and caring. She's a single mom, and Lloyd and Francine's dad is not seen in the show.
  • Francine Nebulon (voiced by Nicolette Little) is Lloyd's younger sister. She loves her doll, Rosie. Francine enjoys using her telekinetic and telepathic powers, especially to tease Lloyd! Her favorite TV show is "The Daisy Droid Girls."
  • Station (voiced by Brian George) is the computer that runs the space station. He looks like a giant eyeball on a long wire when he's active. Station can be a bit nervous and keeps to himself.
  • Edward R. "Eddie" Horton (voiced by Justin Shenkarow) is Lloyd's human best friend. He has wavy orange hair and always tries to act cool. His dad is a police officer.
  • Douglas McNoggin (voiced by Pamela Hayden) is a super-smart brain with glasses, arms, and legs. He's one of Lloyd's friends and is the most intelligent character in the show. However, he's not very good at sports.
