In the heart of the African jungle, an unexpected family of adventurers and misfits navigates the wild, untamed landscape. At the center of it all is George, the well-meaning but often clumsy king of the jungle. With his incredible strength, boundless bravery, and knack for getting into comical mishaps, George is always ready to help his friends and protect the jungle's inhabitants.

Each episode is filled with humor, adventure, and heart as they face new challenges and discover the true meaning of family and community in the wildest place on Earth.
== Characters ==
=== Main Characters ===
* George (voiced by Billy West): The main protagonist of the show. He is an adventurous, brave, well-meaning, friendly, strong, and sometimes dim-witted man in a loincloth who lives in a jungle in Africa, serving as the "king". George has peach skin, blue eyes, black hair, and an exaggerated muscular "heroic" build. His most prominent feature is his constantly-grinning, wide-eyed expression. He typically wears a leopard-skinned loincloth, though he has rarely worn similar or other outfits. Possessing incredible strength, bravery and a penchant for repeatedly crashing into trees while vine-swinging, George acts as the hero and protector of all the jungle's inhabitants. High on brawn but short of brains, George is brave but often lacking common sense. He relies often relies on the direction of his friends to steer him in the right direction, and is easily tricked by those around him. Despite this, George is dedicated to those he cares about, and prioritizes helping those in need above all else. Conversely, he is incredibly needy, and will easily fall into a depression when he feels he has let down those around him or vice versa.
* Ape (voiced by Rob Tinker): A sarcastic and intelligent gorilla that lives with George in the jungle. Ape has tan skin and gray fur. He has a noticeably large upper body, with visibly diminished lower legs. He has a small tuft of brown hair on the top of his head. He functions as George's surrogate brother, parental figure, advisor and best friend, although his attempts to educate George have a long history of repeated failures. He also tends to serve as the voice of reason most of the time. Ape is openly intelligent, well-educated, highly sophisticated, level-headed, cultured and calm, easily excelling that of George in both mental and social skills. He speaks with a British accent. He can be quite cowardly sometimes. It is revealed that Ape has terrible cooking, to the point even the feral Steffy refuses to eat it.
* Ursula Witch (voiced by Grey DeLisle-Griffin): A native of the jungle and valley girl figure, she is one of George's closest friends since she came to the jungle. Ursula has short red hair, fair skin, blue eyes and freckles. Her normal outfit is consisted of a pink flower on the side of her head, armlets, a bone on her chest, a tiger skin red top that shows her stomach, grass skirt and feet cuffs. Despite her dressing in jungle attire (such as loincloths and sticks) as well as fits of hyperactivity, she originally appeared to be very well educated in both human and jungle knowledge, often helping to bridge the gap between Magnolia and Arabella's city life and jungle life. She speaks with a Southern accent, and can appear somewhat dimwitted at times yet generally more sensible. Despite her wild upbringing, Ursula considers herself on the cutting edge of fashion and culturalism, and works hard to maintain her trendy image. Additionally, she liked all things cute and cuddly, and will drop everything at the sole sight of makeup. She is very kind-hearted, cuddly, and a bit airheaded yet generally more sensible. She is the daughter of the Witch Doctor, and therefore a Witch Doctor in training. Ursula supports George in his adventures and rescues. She acts as a cheerleader for the jungle, bringing enthusiasm and positivity. There may be some romantic hints about her and George in some episodes for fans to know.
* Magnolia Scott (voiced by Britt Irvin): A tomboyish urban girl who came to live in the jungle with George and his friends along with her father Dr. Scott. She is nicknamed "Maggie" or "Mags" by her friends. Magnolia has long dark brown hair and tan skin. She also has green eyes. She also wears a red lipstick, a blue midriff shirt, black bracelets, khaki shorts, and white sneakers with red stripes. She quickly forms a bond with Ursula, the latter having saved her from drowning with mouth to mouth resuscitation and Magnolia returning the favor with CPR and a defibrillator, causing the two to be frequently seen together. Young, tough, athletic, adventurous, daredevil-ish, brave, friendly, reckless and eager to introduce modern culture into the jungle, she often tries to educate her new friends to the marvels of modern city life (such as Christmas or traffic systems), only to usually have her attempts backfire. Regardless, she does her best to assist her friends when necessary. She is still adjusting to jungle life, and so she still has much to learn.
* Arabella Stanhope (voiced by Jennifer Hale): One of George's female friends, she is a jungle scientist and beautiful wealthy heiress who is on a research mission to discover the rarest of animals to win a Nobel Prize, but her obliviousness to bad ideas often lands her in trouble. Arabella has long flowing, vibrant blonde hair, light tan skin and teal eyes. She wears elegant yet adventurous attire suitable for jungle exploration, perhaps with a touch of practicality and style. She is a bit of a perfectionist, an overachiever, a brainiac, a rational overthinker, a clean freak, a goody-goody, sarcastic, sassy, obsessive, cynical, narcissistic, pessimistic, snarky and hot-tempered, but she can be well-meaning. She can be quite jumpy, uptight, squeamish and a "damsel-in-distress" sometimes. She is considered a frenemy to Steffy. She is incredibly ticklish and deliberately lets herself be tickle-tortured on her belly, sides and armpits by crocodiles. Having migrated from the more civilized world like Ursula, she attempts to bring modern influence and convenience to the Jungle, often with disastrous results. Arabella is more relaxed than the others, and has an frequent exasperation with the King of the Jungle's antics. Despite this, she will at times join George in his less-thought out endeavours, as he always enjoys a good time.
* Steffy Flytrap (voiced by Debi Derryberry): One of George's female friends, she is a wild, feral human girl who hunts to survive in the Jungle. Steffy has wild and spiky short raven black hair, pale skin and hazel eyes. She has a more rugged and feral look, with practical jungle attire that allows for freedom of movement, reflecting her adventurous and playful personality. She may attack everyone (mostly George), but is mostly looking to make laugh of herself through practical jokes. Steffy behaves and speaks like a primitive cavewoman, wreaking mayhem throughout the jungle for her own amusement. Because of her feral outlook, she is nicknamed "Wild-Girl Steffy". Unlike the other female main characters, she is more muscular, hunches down more like a great ape, has sharp finger nails, abnormal crooked teeth, and never wears lipstick. She speaks in third-person, yet has a Canadian accent. She is uncivilized, wild, feral, monstrous, detestable, spirited, displays cannibalistic tendencies, and doesn't care about possessions. She's dangerous, and anywhere in the Jungle is her home. She is not a good friend to Arabella, but more of a frenemy. She is George's rival because every time George rescues an animal, Ursula puts them back in peril. She always attacks him as well. Though she has developed more of a friendship with him, Ape, Ursula, Magnolia and Arabella in later episodes, she still attacks them every now and then. Steffy serves as a necessary evil to the jungle to stay wild. She has an unknown past, therefore kinda like George, she may be an orphan as well. Every Autumn of three years, Steffy falls into manic fits of frenzied hunger due to the growth of Bananaquats, a fast growing banana-like seasonal fruit.
=== Secondary Characters ===
* Shep: George's pet elephant who acts like a dog. He is very untrained, and can often be seen destroying sections of the jungle.
* Tookie-Tookie Bird: George's friend, a parrot-like bird that can only say his own name.
* Narrator: The narrator of each George of the Jungle episode. In comparison to the narrator of the original cartoon, he speaks in a documentary-style fashion, often beginning each episode claiming "To survive in the jungle…", often followed by a situation in complete contrast to the first impression of his introduction. Sometimes, he chimes in much more frequently, and also breaks the fourth wall by being able to speak directly to other characters (who refer to him as "Sky Voice").
* Witch Doctor: A very compact, diminutive and irascible character who believes his shaman skills are the solution to all problems, and is Ursula's father. He appears to have no body, with his arms and legs all linking directly to his head. Deeply set in his ways, he is strongly opposed to modern medicine, especially when it puts him in confrontation with Dr. Towel Scott, despite the fact his witch doctor medicine often leads to disaster. He often competes with Dr. Scott and his modern medicine to see who can solve a problem first, although neither usually provides the solution to whatever problem they tackle.
* Dr. Scott: The modern doctor now living in the jungle with his daughter Magnolia. He speaks with a Latino accent. He has formed a somewhat friendly (and often hostile) rivalry with the local Witch Doctor, continuously trying to disprove his barbaric medicine and shaman skills with modern science (often with equally unsuccessful results). Scott is a likable good person, brave, smart, helpful, and a loving father. He seems to be good friends with most everybody in the jungle, likes his daughter’s friends. He is mentally stable but still has some noticeable flaws and mistakes.
* Dr. Chicago: The main antagonist of the series. Constantly scheming but notably neurotic, his plans largely fail due to his own impulsive behavior. Chicago is less likable, an abusive parent (but still has love for Cuspid although he can’t admit), detests his creation’s friends, has little (if any) friends, and is enemies with most everybody in the jungle, but can get along with others at times, especially desperate situations, psychotic, destructive, power-hungry and villainous.
* Cuspid: Dr. Chicago's assistant who looks like a tooth.
