Every episode of Hailey’s On It! runs on one simple, stressful engine: a to-do list beamed back from the future that Hailey has to work through before she can, somehow, save the world.
But the real draw for me is the Hailey’s On It characters who orbit that list.
That push and pull, the weight of a giant list hanging over your head versus the very normal urge to just be a teenager, is the whole show in a nutshell.
What makes it click, though, is the crew around that list. The Hailey’s On It characters are not just names to memorize; they are the people who keep Hailey grounded, wind her up, or nudge her forward.
If you love Phineas and Ferb, this fast, funny, big-hearted show is right up your alley.
So instead of a dry roll call, let me dig into who these Hailey’s On It characters really are, how they bounce off each other, and why fans have latched on.

Meet the Hailey’s On It Characters
Let me start with the core trio, because everything on this show orbits the three of them. These are the Hailey’s On It characters doing the heavy lifting every episode.
Hailey Alohilani Banks
Hailey Alohilani Banks, voiced by Auli’i Cravalho, is our reluctant hero. She is a cautious, list-making kid who would rather add an adventure to her to-do list and quietly postpone it than go do it. Which, of course, is exactly why the universe keeps forcing her hand.
Character Deep Dive
- The core trait: The reluctant perfectionist, the architect of her own chaos.
- Why fans love them: Her list-making and low-key anxiety are painfully relatable to anyone who has ever over-planned their way out of just living.
- The relationship dynamic: With Scott, she is one half of the show’s slow-burn will-they-won’t-they, which keeps the emotional stakes high.
- My take: She is proof a hero does not need to be fearless, just willing to check the next box.
Scott Denoga
Scott Denoga, voiced by Manny Jacinto, is Hailey’s best friend and the show’s secondary lead. Where Hailey spirals, Scott stays easy, and that steady, unbothered energy is a big part of why the trio works at all.
Character Deep Dive
- The core trait: The unflappable, endlessly loyal best friend.
- Why fans love them: His calm is the perfect counterweight to Hailey’s stress, and his loyalty never once wavers.
- The relationship dynamic: He is the other half of the Hailey-and-Scott slow burn, the friendship fans are desperate to see tip into something more.
- My take: Every anxious main character needs a Scott, the person who makes the chaos feel survivable.
Beta
Beta, voiced by Gary Anthony Williams, is the AI operating system from the future riding shotgun on Hailey’s mission. He is impatient, blunt, and has zero tolerance for nonsense, and I will just say it: Beta might be the best character on the whole show.
Character Deep Dive
- The core trait: The impatient AI taskmaster beamed in from tomorrow.
- Why fans love them: His dry, robotic cynicism is the perfect foil to Hailey’s anxiety, and his exasperation lands every single time.
- The relationship dynamic: Part mentor, part nag, all heart under the circuitry, he is the one who really pushes Hailey to finish what she starts.
- My take: The show would lose half its comedy without Beta rolling his metaphorical eyes in the corner.
Hailey and Scott: The Slow Burn Fans Can’t Stop Theorizing About
If you have spent any time in the fandom, you already know the biggest question hanging over the show: Hailey and Scott. The writers play their friendship as a real, careful slow burn, never rushing it, letting the will-they-won’t-they simmer quietly under all the list-checking chaos.
That restraint is exactly why fans are so invested, and why every lingering look sends the comments section into a frenzy.
Personally, I hope they take their time with it, because the friendship is too good to fast-forward.
The Supporting Hailey’s On It Characters
Around the core trio sits a family, a rival, and a scientist who all keep the world of the show spinning.
Becker Denoga
Becker Denoga, voiced by Judy Alice Lee, is Scott’s younger sister and a total scene-stealer. With pigtails held up by dark green bands, a skull tee, and a spiky wristband, she is the pint-sized punk of the group, and a lot braver than the older kids.
Patricia Banks
Patricia Banks, voiced by Julie Bowen, is Hailey’s mom. She juggles a busy retail career with family life and brings a warm, grounded energy to the Banks household, the kind of steady parent every chaotic hero needs at home.
Kai Banks
Kai Banks, voiced by Cooper Andrews, is Hailey’s dad and Patricia’s husband. He is a good-natured, easygoing presence who rounds out the Banks family with a lot of heart and very little drama.
Kristine Sanchez
Kristine Sanchez, voiced by Amanda Leighton, is the reigning queen bee of Hailey’s school. A confident Mexican-American teen with a signature pink top and a standout sun hat, she is the popular-girl foil Hailey has to navigate on top of, you know, saving the world.
A.C. Aychvak
A.C. Aychvak, voiced by Josh Brener, is Hailey’s self-declared academic rival. He is arrogant, petty, and obsessed with beating her at everything, blissfully unaware that Hailey mostly just does not care. His schemes are less a real threat and more one more obstacle between her and the mission.
The Professor
The Professor, voiced by Sarah Chalke, is the upbeat scientist from the future who hands Hailey her ever-growing to-do list. She is the reason any of this is happening, cheerfully firing missions back through time and trusting Hailey to handle them.
Hailey’s On It trivia worth knowing
- Hailey’s voice, Auli’i Cravalho, is also the voice of Disney’s Moana.
- Beta was invented so the writers had a natural way to organize and prioritize Hailey’s list, instead of constantly flashing it on screen.
- Creators Devin Bunje and Nick Stanton previously made Disney XD’s Gamer’s Guide to Pretty Much Everything.
- Weird Al Yankovic guest-stars as a character named Chip Dingle.
- The first season grew from a 20-episode order to a full 30 after an early extension.
Is There a Season 2 of Hailey’s On It?
This is the question I get most, so here is the honest state of play.
What we know for certain is that Disney ordered a 30-episode first season, a 20-episode order plus a 10-episode extension, which rolled out starting in 2023.
Beyond that first season, I have not seen a confirmed second-season renewal announced, so for now the Hailey’s On It characters have exactly one full season of adventures to their name.
Renewals and revivals can shift, though, so it is worth checking Disney’s official channels for the latest before you take my word as final.
What Hailey’s To-Do List Is Really About
Underneath the time-travel gadgets and the musical numbers, Hailey’s On It! is quietly about something every anxious over-planner will recognize: the gap between making a list and really living your life. Hailey’s list is framed as saving the world, but episode to episode it is really about facing small, ordinary fears one checkbox at a time.
That is the theme that gives the show its heart, and why the Hailey’s On It characters connect with more than just kids.
If you want to go deeper on individual list items and episodes, the fan community has mapped nearly all of them over on the Hailey’s On It wiki.

Hailey’s On It Official Trailer
How Hailey’s On It Came Together
The whole thing started with a simple image: Devin Bunje and Nick Stanton imagined a girl who was not paying attention to a time-traveling messenger.
That spark grew into the series.
Disney Branded Television greenlit a 20-episode first season back in November 2021, with Disney Television Animation executive Meredith Roberts describing it as a rapid-fire comedy stitched together with authentic, emotional storytelling.
Aimed at kids aged 6 to 14 and their families, the order grew to 30 episodes by mid-2022.
Hailey’s bucket list might drive the plot, but it is the chaotic, heartfelt chemistry of these Hailey’s On It characters that keeps me coming back.
Whether it is Scott’s unflappable loyalty or Beta’s deadpan delivery, there is a little piece of all of us somewhere in this group.
So which item on Hailey’s list do you most want her to tackle next?
