Take one stinker of a summer camp called Camp Kidney, add one wacky monkey to the Bean Scouts and what do you get? Camp Lazlo! It's a crazy camp full of animal campers, cranky scoutmasters and weird stuff. Here's the 411 on who's-who and what's up at the craziest cartoon camp on TV!
Main Characters
- Lazlo - This monkey is super friendly, cheerful and, well, totally nuts. He brought a double-dose of crazy to the dullest summer camp on the planet and now it's hoppin' with hijinks, pranks and insanity!
- Raj - Lazlo's buddy Raj is a neurotic neat-freak of an elephant who's afraid of bugs, snakes and being alone. He sticks with his friends though!
- Clam - You don't get bunkmates much weirder than an albino pygmy rhino. Especially when they're a cereal-loving, thrill-seeker with the IQ of a puddle!
- Patsy - If she wasn't on the far side of the lake at Squirrel Scout camp, this cheerful mongoose would be dating Lazlo 24/7!
- Gretchen - When this alligator gal isn't trying to eat everyone, she's hangin' out at the Squirrel Scout camp across the lake.
- Nina - This Squirrel Scout camp member is a nerdy giraffe with a high-pitched voice.
- Lumpus - This no-fun moose is the sad looking Camp Kidney Scoutmaster. He thinks he's all that, but he's a total spaz.
- Slinkman - Scoutmaster Lumpus' assistant, Slinkman, is a banana slug and an expert on all the Bean Scout manual rules. When Lumpus flips out, it's up to Slinkman to make sure nobody has any fun.
- Edward - As if being a platypus isn't bad enough, this guy has serious anger issues and wants to make life awful for anybody who tries to have fun at Camp Kidney.
- Chip and Skip - Every villain needs henchmen and that's what these two dumb-as-dirt dung beetle twins are all about. When Edward needs something done, Chip and Skip hop to it!
