Characters

 * Flownut (Kevin Eldon, full name Go with the Flownut) is a chill donut who just wants to go with the flow (hence his name) and have a good time, even if sometimes (or all the time) it doesn't mean making it big.
 * Rampshade (Nicky Jones) is a daredevil-like American lamp who is always trying to ramp things up a bit (hence his name) to make it big.
 * Shell Phone (Morwenna Banks) is a phone addicted to her own phone who'd like to make it big without coming out of her shell (hence her name).
 * Yup Cup (BaconMahBoi) is a happy-go-lucky plastic cup who is free to just say "yup" to any plan no matter how crazy (hence his name).
 * Narrator (BaconMahBoi) is a reluctant narrator who wants his lunch break but instead has to narrate the series.
 * Gut (Matt Berry) is a gut who enjoys using social media.

Animation
The animation is (admitted by the creator) harder to do than his other series. This is due to all objects in the series being live action, which involves finding a picture with a transparent background, carefully resizing and positioning into the photo, and finally (if the object is being held) adding the hands of the character to show it is being held. Though the other animation is simple and is made using paint.net.

Trivia

 * The series' animation style is often compared to that of Pickle and Peanut and The Amazing World of Gumball, utilising a mix of animation and live-action.
