Western Animation: Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Island

A 2005 Warner Bros.. animated show that lasted only 13 episodes. It starred the hyperactive Coconut Fred in his strange and silly adventures on Fruit Salad Island. He is usually aided by a neurotic cherry, hillbily twin bananas and a Noble Savage strawberry, and usally to the misery, strife and pain of a strict watermelon, a lemon who wants to get off the island and a bully apple.

Viewers mainly complained about it being a shameless knockoff of SpongeBob SquarePants.

This show provides examples of:

Ambiguously Gay: Mr. Greenrind.
Anthropomorphic Food: The entire cast is walking fruit.
Butt Monkey: Mr. Greenrind and Wedgie.
City of Adventure: The titled place.
Cloudcuckoolander: Fred.
The Ditz: Slip and Slide.
The Eeyore: Mr. Greenrind.
Fat Bastard:Vic and Ripley Van Ripen.
Everything's Even Worse with Sharks: Fred attempts to juggle a shark for a world record.
Everything's Worse with Bears: Fred also attempts to jugle a bear for a world record.
Follow the Leader: Many compared this show to SpongeBob SquarePants, and its easy to see why.
Gonk: Mr. Greenrind.
Hey, It's That Voice!: If you guessed Fred is voiced by Judge Juju (or Crainiac 3 for that matter), your right. It's Rob Paulsen.
- Slip and Slide are Future Cat.
- Mr. Greenrind is both El Ray and Spike.
Keet: Fred.
Only Sane Man: Mr. Greenrind.
- Bingo when Mr. Greenrind isn't there.
Parody Episode: The "Sir Nut-a-Lot" episode was primarily a parody of Final Fantasy VII, with Coconut Fred serving as Cloud and Butchy playing the Sephiroth expy. But then, you had Slip and Slide dressed like the Mario Bros., and Bingo being the obligatory "help character" (or, Navi, in this case)
Reality Warper: It's explicitly said that Fred can make anything he imagines become real. Rather like if Mr. Mxyzptlk visited but there was no way to ever send him home.
Send In the Clones: The entire episode of "Coconut Freds".
The Millennium Age of Animation
The Napoleon: Wedgie.
Those Two Guys: Slip and Slide.
