Crazy Ex Girlfriend cast

Rachel Bloom as Rebecca Bunch

The actor plays the role of a lawyer, originally from Scarsdale, New York. She suffers symptoms of depression and anxiety and is prone to impulsive decisions and delusions and tends to hallucinate when she is under emotional distress. She decides to start a new life and shifts to the suburb of West Covina, California to rekindle her love with Josh Chan who she met in a summer camp, ten years prior. She tends to lack emotional intelligence hence she comes across as unpredictable, selfish, self-centred, needy, and eccentric. When she moves to a new place, she changes her behaviour to a very kind and loyal person. 

Vincent Rodriguez III as Josh Chan

The actor plays the love interest of Rebecca. The character portrays similar behaviour as his love interest but tends to apologise a lot. Throughout the show, he goes on a journey of self-discovery as he tries to find his path and understand what he wants in life. In the initial stages, Josh comes off as a selfish and immature person but fans see character development in later seasons. 

Donna Lynne Champlin as Paula Proctor (née O'Brien) 

The actor plays the role of Rebecca's new best friend and co-worker. Paula goes through a failed marriage and tries to advise in support of Rebecca's pursuit of Josh, mostly to compensate for her lack of fulfilment from not pursuing her dreams when she was younger. In later stages, she distracts herself and pursues a law degree and maintain boundaries with Rebecca and continues to be a neglectful parent to her sons.
