Premise edit
The Bananas (Bonnie-Carol Case, John Davies, Melody Greer, Francois-Regis Klanfer) were joined in Bananaland by The Blob (a special-effects pet), the Official, Certified, Genuine, Grade-A Gorilla and The Big Mouth (which provided factoids when fed). Alan Maitland was the Great Announcer.
The show's intent was to promote "attitudes through humour" using comedic sketches.[1] The CBC's schools and youth department produced the series for a target audience between ages nine and 14.[2]
