Story:
Dexter (voiced by Christine Cavanaugh in seasons 1–3; Candi Milo in seasons 3–4) is a bespectacled boy-genius who, behind a bookcase in his bedroom, conceals a secret laboratory, which can be accessed by spoken passwords or hidden switches on his bookshelf. Though highly intelligent, Dexter often fails to achieve his goals when he becomes overexcited and careless. Tartakovsky described Dexter as “a good kid. He’s very ambitious. And he’s very frustrated that everyone isn’t as smart as him.” Although he comes from a typical American family, Dexter speaks with an accent of indeterminate origin. Christine Cavanaugh described it as “an affectation, [a] kind of accent, we’re not quite sure. A small Peter Lorre, but not. Perhaps he’s Latino, perhaps he’s French. He’s a scientist; he knows he needs [a] kind of accent.” Genndy Tartakovsky explained, “he’s a scientist. All scientists are foreign and have accents…It’s not really a German accent. It’s just Eastern European.” Tartakovsky later declared Cavanaugh’s input for Dexter to be irreplaceable as he acknowledged her legacy.
Dexter conceals his lab from his clueless parents, addressed only as Mom (voiced by Kath Soucie) and Dad (voiced by Jeff Bennett), who Tartakovsky described as simplified stereotypes of “ideal parents”. His hyperactive, carefree, older sister Dee Dee (voiced by Allison Moore in seasons 1 and 3 and by Kat Cressida in seasons 2 and 4) delights in playing haphazardly in the laboratory, wreaking havoc with Dexter’s inventions. Though seemingly dim-witted, Dee Dee, a talented ballet dancer, often outsmarts her brother and even provides him helpful advice. According to Tartakovsky, “Dee Dee is the life, she’s the spirit, everything is fun. There’s no hardship in life.” When Tartakovsky was asked whether he and his brother Alex had a similar sibling relationship, he stated, “There’s a little bit of Dee Dee and Dexter in that. He has science and he doesn’t want Dee Dee in his lab. My brother is Dexter. I’m Dee Dee.”
Dexter’s nemesis is rival classmate Mandark Astronomonov (voiced by Eddie Deezen). Like Dexter, Mandark is a boy genius with his own laboratory, but his schemes are generally evil and designed to gain power or downplay or destroy Dexter’s accomplishments. In revival seasons, Mandark becomes significantly more evil, becoming Dexter’s enemy rather than his rival, and Mandark’s laboratory changes from brightly lit with rounded features to gothic-looking, industrial, and angular. Mandark’s unrequited love for Dee Dee is shown as a pivotal weakness, notably near the end of the Ego Trip television film.
Every Dexter’s Laboratory episode, with the exception of “Last But Not Beast”, is divided into different stories or segments, each being 7–12 minutes long. Occasionally, a segment centers on characters other than Dexter and his family. Two segments are shown primarily during season 1: Dial M for Monkey and The Justice Friends. Dial M for Monkey is the middle segment for six episodes of season 1, and The Justice Friends takes its place until season 1’s end. With rare exception, extra segments do not appear after season 1. Other recurring characters include Puppet Pal Mitch (voiced by Rob Paulsen) and Puppet Pal Clem (voiced by Tom Kenny).
Dial M for Monkey follows Monkey (vocal effects provided by Frank Welker), Dexter’s pet laboratory monkey who is secretly a crime-fighting superhero. Monkey’s superpowers include super-strength, telekinesis, flight, and super speed. He is joined by his partner Agent Honeydew (voiced by Kath Soucie), Commander General (voiced by Robert Ridgely in season 1, Earl Boen in season 2), and a team of assembled superheroes. Dial M for Monkey was created by Genndy Tartakovsky, Craig McCracken, and Paul Rudish.
The Justice Friends follows Major Glory (voiced by Rob Paulsen), Valhallen (voiced by Tom Kenny), and the Infraggable Krunk (voiced by Frank Welker), a trio of superhero roommates residing in an apartment called Muscular Arms. Their adventures deal less with superhero life and more with an inability to agree with each other; it is presented much like a sitcom, including a laugh track. Genndy Tartakovsky’s inspiration for The Justice Friends came from reading Marvel Comics while learning how to speak English. In a 2001 IGN interview, Tartakovsky expressed disappointment with how The Justice Friends turned out, saying, “it could have been funnier and the characters could have been fleshed out more.”
