Character's name Voiced by in the English version Character Description
Special Agent Oso Sean Astin The colorful special agent teddy bear who helps children perform tasks such as blowing bubbles, making a card or cleaning their rooms; he is the main character of the series. Oso and his animal friends work for U.N.I.Q.U.E. (The United Network for the Investigation of Quite Unusual Events). The show was designed for encouraging and educational purposes.
Paw Pilot Meghan Strange Oso's computerized assistant who guides Oso through the "three special steps" he needs to accomplish his current mission. Her name is a reference to the Palm Pilot series of handheld computers.
Mr. Dos Gary Anthony Williams Oso's boss, a mysterious figure that assigns Oso missions. Mr. Dos is never actually seen; only his voice is heard on Oso's watch-communicator.
Special Agent Wolfie Phill Lewis A blue stuffed wolf; one of the special agent animals that regularly oversees Oso's training.
Special Agent Dotty Amber Hood A spotted orange stuffed cat with a Southern accent; the other special agent animal that regularly oversees Oso's training. It's hinted that she may have feelings for Oso.
Professor Buffo Brad Garrett/Jess Harnell A slightly clumsy and excitable Italian-speaking buffalo who is the inventor of Oso's gadgets. Introduced in the Season 2 episode, "From China with Love".
Special Agent Musa N/A A silent, dark brown squirrel ninja, the "master of stealth and speed." Introduced in the Season 2 episode, "Table Manners are Forever".
Whirly Bird Cam Clarke Oso's talking bird-shaped autogyro, who takes Oso to wherever someone needs help. He doesn't hear very well and often misunderstands what Oso tells him, which usually leads to Oso's ejection at inopportune moments and places.
R.R. Rapide Oso's French-speaking train. Though his French accent would suggest a TGV, he is likely a reference to the Fastech 360, based on his shape and retractable speedbrake ears.
Shutterbug N/A A ladybug-shaped robotic camera, who keeps an eye out for children who need help. Appears only in the English version.

Components[]

Each episode is composed of four components:

  • The Three Special Steps are the steps that Paw Pilot gives Oso to follow when he is on his special assignments. Oso has a matter of time to finish the three special steps. The third step is usually timed for about 3-19 seconds.
  • The training exercises are Oso's training tasks. They are given by Wolfie or Dotty. Oso usually fails on the first attempt, but in the course of completing the special assignments, he remembers something about the training exercise, thanks to the person he is helping. After the assignment, he returns and tries a second time, using the skill he learned, and completes the training exercise, then earns a training award "Digi-Medal" (in Series 1 only).
  • The special assignments are missions that Oso is requested to complete by the mysterious Mr. Dos, in order to help a child in need. Oso tries to complete the Three Special Steps that Paw Pilot gives him. Then he earns a "Digi-Medal".
  • Audience participation or interaction with Oso. Sometimes, Oso will ask the audience (breaking the fourth wall) to help him find something hidden or missing on the screen. Other times, Oso will ask the audience to try something physically demanding that he is doing. Oso also rewards the audience for helping him, even giving them a digi-medal for their hard work as well.
