Not to be confused with Bebe's family.

The Stevens Family is a family of four who first appear in the Lava and You segment from the Season One episode, "Volcano". The family members reappeared occasionally as background characters in Season One and Season Two.

Background

In "Volcano" they appear in Lava and You's example of what to do when a volcano erupts near someone or a group of people, the family appears having a picnic. The daughter, Jane Stevens, notices a noise which is a nearby volcano erupting which worries Junior. The narrator says that Jane learned in school what to do when she hears a volcano erupt. Jane backs up, pulls out the blanket from under the food, and throws it over her family. They "duck and cover" while lava flows over the blanket causing no damage, thus starting the 2nd part of the video.

The mother and children reappear in "Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo" with a recurring background character replacing the father.

In "Gnomes", Junior reappeared with a different mother, here referred to here as Billy, as he was approached by John Postum to buy a Kiddiecino.

Appearance

The father has flat blue hair and wears a brown coat and blue jeans; the replacement father in "Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo" wears a gray coat with a light blue neckline, as well as messy short brown hair and brown jeans.

The mother has short brown hair and wears a orange dress, which is red in "Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo".

The son has red short hair very reminiscent to his father and a red coat with a blue collar similar to Clyde Donovan. He also has blue jeans.

The daughter, Jane, has a short red ponytail as well as an orange coat, a brown skirt, and long socks.

Prominence

  • "Volcano" - They appear in "Lava and You".
  • "Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo" - They are seen decorating a Christmas tree during "The Lonely Jew on Christmas". However, the father is instead an already existing recurring background character from early seasons.
  • "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut" - The Alternative father and son appear on a promotional image for Father & Son day.
  • "Summer Sucks" - Junior and the mother are seen sitting on a blanket next to another mother with their child where the biggest snake was about to be lit.
  • "Gnomes" - Junior, here referred to as Billy, is seen on the street being offered Coffee by Harbucks Camel Joe. His mother, a different background character here, tells him to leave Junior alone.

Trivia

  • With the revelation that Junior is also known as Billy, with the nickname Junior suggesting he shares a name with his father, then his father's name is presumably William.
