Cast
editMain
edit- Ms. Pat as Patricia "Pat" Ford Carson, the matriarch of the Carson household. She, like Ms. Pat in real life, grew up in rough conditions in Atlanta, had two children when she was a teenager, and moved to Plainfield with her husband with whom she has two more children. While her older kids' father abused her and provided her with little to no support, her husband Terry loves her and acts as the loving partner she never had with her older kids' father. Patricia has four children: Ashley and Brandon, from her first relationship with Lloyd; and Janelle and Junebug, from her marriage to Terry.
- J. Bernard Calloway as Terry Carson, Patricia's well-meaning husband. He is based on Ms. Pat's husband, Garrett. Though his wife grew up with a lack of a strong support system, he provides her with the real love and stability that she never had during her turbulent childhood.
- Tami Roman as Denise Ford, Patricia's free-loading sister who lives with the family. Often a source of comedic tension between Ms. Pat and Terry, she struggles to keep a job.
- Vince Swann as Brandon James, Patricia's sweet, but dimwitted son from a previous relationship with Patricia's ex-boyfriend from Atlanta. He is based on Ms. Pat's son, Nikia.
- Briyana Guadalupe as Janelle Carson, Terry and Patricia's sour and intellectual daughter who is almost 17 years old. She is based on Ms. Pat's daughter, Garrianna.

She is based on Ms. Pat's daughter Ashley.
- Reagan Pasternak as Elizabeth Patterson, the PTO chair and best friend to Pat and Denise. Well-to-do with a past of her own, she is also Ryan’s mom.

- Ebony Marshall-Oliver as Mildred Ford, Pat and Denise's mother. After Mildred's death in the first episode of season two, Pat reflects on the toxic relationship that she had with her mother.

Pat later flashes back to a traumatic incident when her mother verbally abused her for having "nappy" hair, unlike Denise.
