I still laugh when I watch it for the nth time...

Rating: 10/10 (10 April 2011)

Ten for animation (facial expressions etc), ten for smart one liners, ten for twists, ten for the penguins, ten for the way pop culture references are smoothly inserted in the plot and help it progress instead of just being there...
It's not an easy cartoon to watch if you want to catch the references and the messages. It looks bubbly and fun and warm and fuzzy, but I think there are hidden layers to be found.
*spoiler*
Friends become friends because they live close to each other (in the same zoo) and share their waking hours... but friendships are tried when the animals are out of their comfort zone and have to face real life (the jungle and their own self) They decide to accept each other for what they are and not because they happened to share some activities.
I don't know how many times I've watched it and still enjoy it.
