The series usually consists of two characters: I. M. Weasel and I. R. Baboon. Both characters' species are as suggested by their names.

I.M. Weasel is a very gifted philosopher and is usually the only successful character in a given episode.

In contrast, I. R. Baboon is so stupid that he speaks using incorrect grammar (for example, I. R. stands for "I are") and is very jealous of Weasel's success. I. R. Baboon has few skills (either social or practical), but was discovered unexpectedly to be a virtuoso on the theremin.

Baboon wears only a T-shirt with a handwritten, inverted "I. R." (as suggested in the opening video); his red butt shows and usually serves as the source of jokes.

Episodes usually star only Weasel and Baboon, but later episodes, beginning in 1998, usually have The Red Guy included, too. As in Cow and Chicken, The Red Guy plays a devil-like character, but I Am Weasel also grants The Red Guy a new catchphrase: "Hello!! It's me!", usually followed by his identity in that particular episode.
