Helen Dubois

Helen Ophelia Dubois is a secondary character from the show Drake & Josh. She's the manager at The Premiere movie theater where Josh (and formerly Drake) work at.
She is portrayed by Yvette Nicole Brown who also played Shirley Bennett on the NBC series Community.
== Personality ==
Helen is a strict hardworking woman who's never afraid to tell people whatever comes to her mind which means she can be harsh on her employees, especially Josh. Yet, she loves Drake and has some sort of relationship with Gavin. She is shown to be very shallow, judging people solely on their appearance, like when Josh lost weight and became more attractive, she started to treat him noticeably better like she does with Drake. Though despite being strict and coming off as very harsh. She holds her employees to very high standards which is good for running a business. Also, she goes out of her way to keep Drake and Josh out of trouble, especially in Merry Christmas Drake & Josh.
== Background ==
When she was a kid, Helen portrayed "Little Georgia" in the fictional hit television show, Happy Times (a parody of the famous 1970's shows Happy Days and Good Times). She gets a lot of royalty checks from the series. She was briefly married to Buzz Baxter in the episode Really Big Shrimp, then as of Merry Christmas, Drake & Josh, their marriage ended with each other. After the events of Drake & Josh, she became the new principal at Hollywood Arts in Dan Schneider's show Victorious. She later got her own talk show called "The Helen Show". She also has a pet hamster named Nubby.
== Relationships ==
=== Josh ===
Despite Josh being a great employee, Helen doesn't seem to give him the respect he deserves, never thanking him for his hard work and fixing any small mistakes he's made, even if he never made any. Additionally, she forgets who Josh is many times in "Movie Job". This changed in the later seasons when Josh loses his weight and becomes more attractive to girls, including her apparently. She started to treat him much better than before, and by the end of really the episode "Really Big Shrimp" Helen finally started treating Josh with the respect that he deserved after he calmed Crazy Steve down from a rampage and showed her that her wedding can still go on despite The Premiere movie theater catching on fire. She even awarded him by giving him the position of assistant manager that Mindy decided to give up for Josh who wanted it since day one. However, she still continued to treat Drake much better.
=== Drake ===
Contrary to how she feels towards Josh, she absolutely adores Drake no matter what he does wrong which has led his brother to incur her wrath for what he has done. It is hinted heavily that this is because she finds him attractive and feels close enough with him that she calls him her "son she never wanted."
=== Nubby ===
Her pet hamster Nubby who she says often bites her.
=== Buzz Baxter ===
Her fiancé and later former husband who married her in Drake & Josh Really Big Shrimp. Though as of Merry Christmas Drake & Josh they were no longer married for unknown reasons.
== Trivia ==
* Her first appearance was in the Season 2 episode "Movie Job".
