- Ice Cube (Craig Jones) O'Shea Jackson Sr., a.k.a. Ice Cube, has been making music since the tender age of 16, and he was already well-known as the lead rapper of N.W.A.
- Chris Tucker (Smokey) Considering how hilarious he always is on screen, it's no surprise that Chris Tucker began his career as a comedian. He first gained popularity for his frequent appearances on Def Comedy Jam and eventually made his Hollywood debut with the film House Party 3 in 1994.
- Tommy Lister Jr. (Deebo) As a one-time professional wrestler, the late Tommy Lister Jr. notably starred in the WWF movie No Holds Barred (1989) before pivoting to work as a character actor.
- Nia Long (Debbie) Friday was far from Nia Long's industry debut. She got her start as a child actor in shows like Guiding Light and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the latter of which saw her play the fiancée of Will Smith's character.

- Ice Cube As Craig Jones. O’Shea Jackson, a.k.a. Ice Cube, leads the Friday cast as Craig Jones, a slacker who recently got fired from his job. He lives with his parents while bearing the brunt of his father’s taunts.
- Chris Tucker As Smokey. When it comes to the most chill movie stoners, Chris Tucker’s Smokey from Friday is an easy pick. An unemployed slacker like his friend Craig, Smokey is calmer and friendlier in terms of his personality.
- Nia Long As Debbie. Debbie is one of Craig’s neighbors and eventually his love interest. She is also very brave as an individual given how she is one of the few Friday characters who stand up against the neighborhood bully Deebo.
- Bernie Mac As Pastor Clever. The Friday cast also includes the late comedian Bernie Mac in one of his earliest roles: the local Baptist church’s pastor.
Broadcast from Studio 55 in the ABC Television Center, Fridays was done live-to-tape, with the show airing live along the East Coast starting at 11:05 p.m. and the taped version played for the West Coast later that night. The studio audience of about 200 skewed young, with the crowd filled with people in their 20s.
