''Kaeloo'' is a French AllCGICartoon created by Rémi Chapotot and Jean-François Henry and produced by Cube Creative. The series follows the misadventures of a group of {{Funny Animal}}s living on a planet called Smileyland, of which they are the only inhabitants. The leader of this band of animals is the eponymous Kaeloo, a joyous, hyperactive, and fun-loving frog who loves nothing more than playing games. Every episode, Kaeloo organizes an activity and drags the other inhabitants of Smileyland -- who are a dimwitted and erratic squirrel named Stumpy, a NighInvulnerable but unintelligible duck named Quack Quack, and a conniving {{Jerkass}} feline named Mr. Cat -- into it. These games are typical children's fare, like hopscotch, dodgeball, playing doctor, and Simon Says, but Kaeloo and her friends are anything but typical. The activities they engage are taken extremely seriously by the group, and combined with their manic personalities, the results are non-stop insanity that must be seen to be believed.

But the show's wackiness doesn't stop at the surreal nonsense and over-the-top slapstick that Kaeloo and the rest indulge in during their weird and crazy games. Due to the more lax censors French kids' cartoons face compared to their American counterparts, the series is notorious for its boatloads of DemographicallyInappropriateHumor and FamilyUnfriendlyViolence. While this has understandably limited its distribution in the States, it has earned the series a cult following that is more often than not shocked to learn [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids the show is even for children]].

''Kaeloo'' is a French [[AllCGICartoon CGI cartoon]] written by Rémi Chapotot and Jean-François Henry and produced by Cube Creative. The series, which is a DeconstructiveParody of children's shows, follows the adventures of a group of {{Funny Animal}}s living in a CrapsaccharineWorld [[ThereAreNoAdults inhabited exclusively by kids]] called Smileyland as they play various games, like figuring out who graffitied a picture of a penis onto the bathroom door, making a DealWithTheDevil to become a witch doctor and get voodoo powers to turn your friends into your slaves, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and baseball]]. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids While the premise may sound childish]], the games usually end up being taken [[SeriousBusiness so seriously]] by the group of [[WithFriendsLikeThese "friends"]] that [[AmusingInjuries injuries]], [[StuffBlowingUp huge explosions]], and all sorts of [[AffectionateParody weird]], [[SurrealHumor crazy]], and [[{{Demographically Inappropriate Humour}} not very kid-friendly stuff]] end up happening quite often.

The show began as a [[{{Pilot}} 3-minute short film]] in 2007, which caught the attention of producer Cube Creative, resulting in an entire season being broadcasted on Canal+ in 2010, followed by a second season in 2012, a third season in 2017, a fourth season in 2020, and a fifth season in 2023. The show's official English dub was aired briefly in Australia in 2012 on ABC but was then cancelled; it continued airing on NITV in April 2018.

Later episodes would add new characters to the mix to jack up the madness, including {{Polar Opposite Twin|s}} rabbits Pretty and Eugly, the villainous penguin Olaf, and a robot referee that inflicts absurd punishments on rulebreakers.
