The Broflovski Family

Kyle Broflovski
Main article: Kyle BroflovskiKyle is the second in line of the central characters in the show.
Ike Broflovski
Main article: Ike BroflovskiIke Broflovski is Kyle's adopted baby brother and a Canadian, indicated by his trademark flapping ovoid head.
Kyle Schwartz
Kyle Schwartz is Kyle Broflovski's irritating, and stereotypically Jewish cousin from Connecticut. He is voiced by Trey Parker. Kyle Schwartz has a goofy looking appearance with a fat head and small mouth. He has heavy breathing due to asthma along with bad eyesight for which he has large glasses.
His first appearance was in "The Entity" when he had to stay with Kyle and his family since his mother was in the hospital.
Due to the Jewish stereotypes that he displayed, his cousin was worried about his anti-semitic friend Cartman, whom he feared would constantly make fun of him. Kyle (Broflovski) then offered Cartman $40.00 not to make fun of Kyle (Schwartz). Cartman initially tried to comply with the agreement, but when Cartman makes a concentration camp joke in class, he blows the deal. Kyle (Schwartz) then stated that Kyle (Broflovski) should have tried to get away with paying him $12.50. Angered by his ingratitude and personal quirks, the boys help Kyle (Broflovski) try to get rid of him. They tried to teach him to sled (they tied the sled to a bus headed for Connecticut), played hide and seek in the airport (and was put in a box and placed on a plane to Antarctica) and left in the woods. He nevertheless kept returning to the Broflovski home. In the end his mother's condition improves, and he decides to go home after receiving $5,000,000 from an investment bailout to the airlines. The boys suddenly see dollar signs and try to convince him to stay, but Kyle Schwartz replied by saying that he couldn't stand how everyone in South Park was a stereotypical hillbilly jock redneck.
Kyle also appears in "Red Sleigh Down", where he calculated how many presents Cartman would get for Christmas (concluding that he would still owe two presents even if he found a cure for cancer and AIDS before Christmas), and "The Losing Edge", where the boys, playing on the South Park baseball team, had to get the worst person they could find (Kyle Schwartz) to play for them because they did not want to qualify for a tournament.
Cleo
Kyle's grandmother and Sheila's mother who died three years before Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery. The boys dug her up in an attempt to scare the fifth-graders on Halloween. Kyle often makes remarks reguarding his grandmother. In the episode Ladder to Heaven when the boys attempt to get to heaven, Kyle calls out to his grandma to see if thely have made it yet. Cleo also wanted Kyle to attend Jewleeard, a Jewish academy school as it was pointed out by John Edward in the episode The Biggest Douche in the Universe.

Most of his relatives appear to be similar in matter to him; all fat, with the same speech impedement and catchphrases such as "Kickass!" and "RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!!" "No, *Someones name* that's my Pot pie. No, *Someones Name* that's a Bad *Someones Name*!!!". The family is seen again in the episode "Cartmanland" at his grandmother's funeral — where she leaves her estate (valued at $1,000,000) to Eric, citing that all the other family members would have spent it all on crack.

The Tweak family
Richard and Mrs. Tweak
Tweek's parents run a coffee shop called Tweak Bros. Coffee. It was nearly put out of business by the new business in town, Harbucks (a parody of Starbucks). After a huge feud both businesses learned to work together. The Tweaks are their own product's most devoted fans. Even their son consumes several cups of coffee a day (despite his age), hence his constant twitching and general nervousness. Mr. & Mrs. Tweak claim their son has ADD, when in fact he has a growing dependency on caffeine; Richard often preludes heart-to-heart talks with his son by saying, "calm down, son... here, have some coffee." The parents tend either to oversimplify or to overexaggerate large problems, leading their son to frustrated helplessness when he requires aid or to increased paranoia and fear when he's already obsessing about something. Simply put, whatever Tweek's current abnormal and/or neurotic disposition, his parents serve to exacerbate it.
Mr. Tweak wears a maroon jumper which is his shirt for work (hence the name tag on it) and black trousers. Mrs. Tweak wears a blue dress with a white apron. Mr. Tweak has dark curly brown hair. Mrs. Tweak has long light brown hair. Neither parent appears outwardly responsible for their son's straight, blond hair, but he may have inherited this colour from an earlier ancestor.
Tweek's parents have appeared in several episodes, most notably "Gnomes" and "Child Abduction Is Not Funny." Mr. Tweak is voiced by Trey Parker and Mrs. Tweak has been voiced by Mary Kay Bergman and Eliza Schneider. She is now voiced by April Stewart.
(?) Tweek
Main article: Tweek(?) Tweek is a hyperactive boy who is always nervous, jittery, paranoid, and usually overdosed on caffeine. For a third of the sixth season, he was a main character.
List of other Families
The Blacks
Token's family. The only African-American family in South Park and also the wealthiest. Cartman always makes fun of Token. Token's last name in the series was originally "Williams."
The Donovans
The family Clyde comes from. It is unclear what the status of the nuclear family is, however Clyde has stated that his father is a geologist (this is in doubt due to Randy Marsh's frequent claims that he is the only scientist in South Park). Accidentally called "The Harrises" in "Lice Capades", the first time it aired. However, the second time around, the creators fixed this mistake.
The Vulmers
The Vulmers, formerly the Swansons, have a son, Jimmy, who suffers from muscular dystrophy. In Krazy Kripples, it is revealed that his parents teased people with disabilities when they were teenagers, and thought that God made their son crippled to teach them a lesson.
The Testaburgers
They have a daughter named Wendy, who has a relationship with the Stan Marsh. In one episode Wendy breaks up with Stan for Token, a member of the richest and only African-American family in South Park.
The Stevens
From what has been shown of Bebe's family, they are very stereotypical. Her mother appears in "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society," where it is implied that she is rather dumb and managed to get by relying on her looks. In that episode Bebe is quite smart and much more thoughtful than her mother, though she does seem more interested in make-up and boys than Wendy. Bebe's father is briefly seen in "Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset."
Craig's Family
Little is known of Craig's family except that he has at least one sibling, and flipping each other the middle finger appear to be the family norm. Craig's family's propensity for flipping each other off has been so ingrained into Craig, who for the first several seasons is implied to have been sent to either the principal's or counselor's office on a daily basis. Craig's father, Thomas, is tall, portly, redheaded, and apparently somewhat influential in the South Park community; he is often depicted to counterpoint Randy Marsh's stances when Jimbo Kern or another character is otherwise indisposed. He closely resembles another minor character, Skeeter. They might be brothers, which would make Bertha, Skeeter's daughter, Craig's cousin.
Timmy's Family
Timmy's parents are named Richard and Helen, and apparently suffer from the same form of mental retardation as Timmy himself. When they are interviewed on TV, all they can say are their own names, just like their son.
