Milo Murphy's Law (previously titled Mikey Murphy's Law) is an American animated television series from the creators of Phineas and Ferb, Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh, which premiered on October 3, 2016 on Disney XD. The series revolves around the title character, Milo Murphy, who is a descendant of Edward A. Murphy Jr., the namesake of Murphy's law, which states that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
On February 28, 2017, the show was renewed for a second season.
Main
"Weird Al" Yankovic as Milo Murphy, the title character of the series. He has a reputation for having extreme misfortune, but he is always optimistic and finds ways to overcome it. He carries a backpack with him that always seems to have what he needs for any given situation. It was given to him by his old babysitter, Veronica, who was the only one able to handle Murphy's Law.
Sabrina Carpenter as Melissa Chase, a long-time friend of Milo's who likes to hang out with him despite his bad luck. Her father is the local fire chief. She has had a secret fear of rollercoasters since one nearly fell on her.
Mekai Curtis as Zack Underwood, the new kid in Swamp City who becomes best friends with Milo and Melissa and sticks by Milo even though he is a jinx. He is on the football team. He was once the lead singer of a boy band called "The Lumberzacks". He also has a fear of goldfish.
Recurring
Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh as Vinnie Dakota and Balthazar Cavendish, respectively, time travelers from the future, given the assignment to prevent the extinction of the pistachio. They are considered a joke by fellow time agents because their job is considered inconsequential and was only given to them because their boss likes pistachios. A semi-recurring gag involves Milo attempting to purchase pistachios from them and his bad luck causing them to lose their pistachios.
Christian Slater as Elliot Decker, the school crossing guard and self-described "Safety Czar". He makes it his mission to protect the city from Milo, and constantly hinders Milo and the gang, particularly Milo. He even goes so far as to have a "STOP" sign with "MILO" on the other side.
Vanessa Williams as Eileen Underwood, Zack's mother, and a surgeon.
Phil LaMarr as Marcus Underwood, Zack's father. He didn't believe in Murphy's Law until he and Zack joined Milo and his father on a fishing trip.

Ming-Na Wen as Savannah, an attractive time travel agent who Vinnie has a crush on.
Vincent Martella as Bradley Nicholson, a pessimistic but arrogant student who is jealous of the attention Milo always gets. In "Sunny Side Up", it is hinted that he has a crush on Melissa; this continues through other episodes, though he seems insecure about his affection and lets Melissa's friendship with Milo deter him.
Diedrich Bader as Martin Murphy, Milo's father. Just like his son, he has extreme misfortune. He works as the Swamp City Safety Inspector, mostly due to the fact that when he's around, safety contingencies are pushed to the limit.
Pamela Adlon as Brigette Murphy, Milo's mother, and an architect.
Kate Micucci as Sara Murphy, Milo's older sister and fellow Dr. Zone fan who loves her brother despite his recurring bad luck.

Laraine Newman as Ms. White, another high school teacher.
