9	''Skippy: Adventures in Bushtown'' is an Australian animated series created by Creator/YoramGross of ''WesternAnimation/BlinkyBill'' fame. Set in and around a fictionalised UsefulNotes/{{Australia}}n town, the series differs from the original live-action ''[[Series/SkippyTheBushKangaroo Skippy]]'' series, as it is animated and is set in a WorldOfFunnyAnimals. For example, Skippy is a kangaroo who wears a baseball cap (and is also male this time).

11	Skippy the Bush Kangaroo, voiced by Jamie Oxenbould, is a young park ranger who resides in Bushtown. He always happens to get in the way of Mayor Croco, his greedy wife Suka, his pack of goons, and his frequent get-rich schemes which often endanger the town.

14	!!Skippy: Adventures in Tropetown:
15	* TheAce: Skippy, who's generally the most competent of the team.
16	* AnthropomorphicShift: Based on a series about a non-anthropomorphic kangaroo.
17	* BadassAdorable: Skippy and Matilda are pretty easy on the eyes...doesn't make them any less capable for it.
18	* BarefootCartoonAnimal: Many characters, most notably Skippy and Matilda.
19	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Skippy may be friendly, but he's not a pushover, as Croco and Suka often find out.
20	* BigBad: [[MayorPain Croco]] is the main one, but [[RitchBitch Suka]] could count as well, especially in certain episodes.
21	* BunglingInventor: Professor [=McPouch=]'s inventions...tend not to work as planned, to put it this way.
22	%%* CowardlyLion: Pos.
23	%%* CreepyCrossdresser: Croco in one episode.
24	* DeadpanSnarker: Pos is a pretty big one, though a fair few of the other characters have their moments.
25	* DisguisedInDrag: Pos in one episode. He '''''REALLY''''' hates it.
26	* EveryEpisodeEnding: In the endings of nearly every episode of the show, Skippy does his trademark thumbs up pose and utters, "Beauty!". The only episode not to have this is "The Sound of Suka".
27	* GenderFlip: The original live-action Skippy was female. This show's Skippy is male.
