2''The Bungle Brothers'' was a short series of bumpers on ''WesternAnimation/TheKwickyKoalaShow'', unlike the usual set of the show as ThreeShorts. They were brief gags that would air before each longer segment.

4In each segment, George and Joey would practice their latest performance in a circus or vaudeville-type setup. As their name implies, one way or another something would happen to bungle it up.
5
6!! All right, Joey, let's show the people our tropes.
7
8* AlliterativeName: While individually not so, as a team name Bungle Brothers qualifies.
9* AndCallHimGeorge: Joey's temperament is clearly patterned after Lenny Small of ''Literature/OfMiceAndMen''; as such, George is his George.
10* CrossOver: While they were originally a solo effort at the beginning, over the course of the season, characters from ''[[WesternAnimation/TheKwickyKoalaShow Kwicky Koala]]'', ''WesternAnimation/DirtyDawg'' and ''WesternAnimation/CrazyClaws'' sometimes showed up in the segments.
11* TheDitz: Joey is far from the smartest dog in the world.
12* EpicFail: Joey is prone to these kind of endings to whatever the stunt was supposed to be.
13* FunnyAnimal: Both George and Joey.
14* PunnyName: Given that they are the Bungle Brothers, this is obvious.
15* ShorterMeansSmarter: George, vis-à-vis Joey.
