Premise[edit]
The series is about a 10-year-old vlogger named Ruby who starts a video channel called Planet Ruby. When she discovers that her first follower is a space alien named Zokie Sparkleby, the two become best friends who film their everyday adventures.[4]
Characters[edit]
- Zokie Sparkleby (voiced by Zach Reino) is a short blue alien from Planet Pudge. He decides to stay on Earth with Ruby. He is very outgoing, optimistic, and helpful, but he is also naïve and clueless about Earth.
- Ruby Studebaker (voiced by Bahia Watson) is a young video vlogger who lives in an apartment building. Her channel is called Planet Ruby. When she discovers that Zokie is her first (and only) follower, the two become best friends.
- Earl (voiced by Cory Doran) is a talking squirrel who acts like a conman.
- Dee (voice by Sabryn Rock) and Stan (voiced by Joshua Graham) are Ruby's parents. Both of them work gig jobs that can change from episode to episode.
- Grandma Pearl (voiced by Alana Bridgewater) is Ruby's grandma (through Dee's side) who loves going to the gym. She is also more tech-savvy than most seniors.
- Tweenkle (voiced by Melissa Altro) is a bratty young girl with an extremely popular video channel. Her name is a blend of "tweenager" and "twinkle."
- King Pootywinkle (voiced by Ryan Beil) is the king of Zokie's home planet Pudge. He is a perfectionist and can be selfish. He looks like a teacup Pomeranian dog.
- Konko (voiced by Sharron Matthews) is King Pootywinkle's assistant. She is a big pink alien.
