zsofikam Review of The Koala Brothers

The Koala Brothers (2003–2007)

You Can't Go Wrong With Koala Brothers

[10/10 · 1 January 2019]

I really enjoy the Koala Brothers. It's quite adorable, both in terms of look and story. The Koala Brothers, Frank and Buster, have two things that the rest of their outback friends don't. They have a little plane and they have each other. Knowing this, they vow to make it their life mission to always try to help everyone else. Friends such as Ned Wombat, Mitzi Possum, Archie Crocodile, Josie Kangaroo, George Turtle, Sammy Echidna, Alice Platypus, and Lolly Emu are all always eager to receive help from the titular brothers. The gang are sometimes joined by Penny, a penguin who occasionally visits the outback. She makes penguin noises instead of talking but the koala brothers or their other friends translate for her. The koala brothers also have a helping song that they sing and their friends sing it as well. The helping song is quite cute and catchy, as is the theme song in the middle of which a narrator always asks who the koala brothers are going to help today. Finally, the animation is top-notch, one of the finest examples of stop motion that I've seen. You really can't go wrong with The Koala Brothers.
