Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Island! (2005–2006) User Reviews

So many Spongebob ripoffs...

[adampkalb · 3/10 · 23 August 2017]

This is one of many obnoxious kids shows that rip off Spongebob, followed by Fanboy and Chum Chum, Rocket Monkeys, and Breadwinners. Coconut Fred also has the same VA as Bubsy. I didn't give this 1 star because there are way worse shows and movies out there, and the writers seem very creative with what they have Coconut Fred make appear. Then again, this can still get them some hate just for showing off how imaginative they are with their nonsense. Also, this crazy fruit salad island is more fun to watch for 13 episodes than the torture porn series named Stressed Eric.

This is worse than most modern Spongebob episodes because the whole show is about Coconut Fred making anything he thinks of appear and tortures almost everyone with his annoyance. Much like Bubsy, he also makes things go wrong for everyone except himself whenever he asks what could possibly go wrong. Everyone except the banana twins are subject to his terror. This is what Star vs. the Forces of Evil would be like if Star Butterfly was evil and used her magic to torture everyone on Earth.

What can I say about this fourth insult cartoon. Kids' WB Should have not aired this cartoon on the same day Loonatics Unleashed and Johnny Test premiered. The animation looks ugly and I cannot sum any message in four words. But this was the main character's voice actor's least favorite role Fred is acting like SpongeBob but not very good like his shenanigans .The Banana Twins are clones of Patrick. And Bingo is acting probably like Gary. Yeah... I don't like this show. But it is not the worst Kids' WB show ever but I still don't like this show. Writing is bland. Don't know about the intro and music. I give this show a 2 out of 10.

The biggest and awful rip-off to Spongebob Squarepants

[arielsiere · 2/10 · 6 June 2022]

Come on i feel bad for Rob Paulsen who had to voice this abomination and my 7th least favorite show next to The Samsonadzes and Secret Mountain Fort Awesome i would say that this is the worst show ever from 2005-2006 and it even is a rip-off to Spongebob Squarepants which is way better than this.

Biggest ripoff ever.

[dudefulshelly · 10 January 2006]

Oh man...This show is the biggest ripoff of Spongebob I have ever seen! Even the name sounds the same! Coconut Fred...Spongebob... Fred acts almost exactly like Sponge, and Fred's banana buddies Slip and Slide act as a joint Patrick, Mr. Greenrind is a sort of Squidward...

I'll admit that the show can be funny, but only because it is so much like SB.

I give it 0/10 for originality, 4/10 for voice acting, 3/10 for animation, and 4/10 for music and sound effects. All in all, 3/10. Definitely not one of my favorites. I recommend Invader Zim or Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends if you're looking for a good cartoon to watch.

If Stephen Hillenburg saw this poor excuse of a flash cartoon, he'd hate it

[asaloverboy7 · 1/10 · 14 July 2014]

Stephen Hillenburg should slap whoever made this show! It's a SpongeBob rip-off! Terrible art, terrible plot, terrible acting, terrible animation, and a beyond terrible theme song! It should have been renamed into "Coconut Dread's Cruddy Island".

Here's why this show copies off SpongeBob.

1. Fred is basically SpongeBob, but extremely annoying.

2. The banana brothers are clones of Patrick.

3. The watermelon is just Mr. Krabs.

4. And lastly there's a lemon who is very similar to Squidward.

All in one, this is the worst flash cartoon of all time. You'd be far better off with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and the Total Drama series which are 10 billion times better than this garbage.

A pretty meh cartoon...

[ZetTheLegendaryHero · 5/10 · 12 June 2017]

Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Island is an overall meh cartoon.

First of all Coconut Fred is a ripoff of Spongebob Squarepants. While ripping off a show doesn't make another bad, Coconut Fred doesn't know anger, pain, suffering, sadness, or worry. This problem compounds itself because Fred has god-like powers. Those who are with Fred make it through the episode fine, and those who don't make it through half dead. Most of the characters fears Fred (even one of his friends). Fred also is the cause of nearly all the shows problems and he is almost always the one who fixes the problems. Fred, like Bubsy, has a catchphrase, "Yay me!" While Fred's catchphrase is never used as much as Bubsy's in a single episode, it is still nonetheless ironic considering he is basically both the god of destruction and god of creation.

Coconut Fred has at least 1 all star voice actor, and the watch isn't terrible. Overall the show's greatest fail is that it is just an average watch. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Coconut RoundPants

[benjanime · 1/10 · 11 June 2019]

Oh what a pathetic waste of a timeslot this was back in the day. Only the true braindead will watch this show to claim that there's nothing wrong with it. When you know Rob Paulsen himself hates it, the harsh criticisms from others only make sense. It's an island alright, but littered with garbage.

This Is A SpongeBob Ripoff

[ht2022spongebob-33027 · 1/10 · 12 November 2021]

Too Much Ripoffs, This Is The WORST ONE! I'M TIRED OF WATCHING THIS! No Coconut Fred, Let's Watch SpongeBob SquarePants! Worse than the modern episodes and Bubsy because they always ruin things (Not Previous/Past Spongebob)

WHAT A RIPOFF

[dayyanfun · 5/10 · 22 January 2021]

This Animation Must Be Better And Try To Make A Adult Show Already Spongebob Is A kids Show But You Made It Horrible Shame On You Creator. Make A Adult Show That Is Not SpongeBob Like But For Your Support I Will Rate It 5/10 Stars

THIS IS UNWATCHABLE

[panmalko · 1/10 · 4 September 2023]

WB Made this show with no plot of the fruits didnt eaten half of one service 1. This show gor the worst plot ever and script when children are watching it 2. Who wants a coconut as a charcther it gives worse to the than you destroy it YUCK!

And 3. This is a ripoff of spongebob squarepants avoid watching this also there the plot

:Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Island takes place on an island inhabited exclusively by fruit. The residents enjoy their own tropical paradise without a care in the world; they must share their peaceful utopia with the joyfully strange Coconut Fred, a whimsical, blissfully foolish coconut with the special ability to materialize anything he thinks about. The plot revolves around the adventures of Fred and his friends, as his boundless imagination springs to life while his friends struggle to cover up the collateral. Any conflict could range from getting a "fruit canal", to sailing off the island only to find themselves in a humongous storm.

Bring it Back

[tommypezmaster · 10/10 · 29 April 2007]

Fred was such a great show.It was simple but somehow very addicting.I can still remember the days when I'd watch this on Kids WB Saturdays ,but then Kids WB did the unforgivable.Kids WB became like that older relative that tries to act "hip" and "funky fresh".*shudder*They became like that relative who tries to act all cool ,but the attempt is a cheesy disaster.They pulled Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Inland and all the other good shows to put on some of the most pointless shows I've ever seen In my life(Will and DeWitt).The only thing that keeps me watching KWB anymore is the occasional bits of the old shows and the anime on 4kids.It was such a huge mistake to pull this show off of the schedule.This brings me back to my first point... BRING IT BACK!!!

Bad quality scam.

[jaxsonmarti · 1/10 · 3 April 2022]

This is incredibly inappropriate! This show was even saved in 240p resolution. Calobi was right. It was either the luckiest when it comes to coincidences, or the most direct copy of Spongebob Squarepants. It almost looked like it copied the whole ART STYLE! To be fair, i'd say overall that it's not worth watching.

This is one of the funniest and positive cartoons. ever.

[coroner34 · 4 February 2006]

There were very few episodes so I seen most twice and they are funny intelligent and very positive. Fred doesn't know the meaning of word panic, fear etc. and he thinks any of those responses are games. He exhibits innocence and a beginners mind with hilarious consequences.

The cast of character spans all age-groups and the characters are well developed and unique. Unlike everyone else, the Bunga berry has four feet. The cartoon is inspired.

As of Feb. 2006, WB stopped showing it, which is a terrible pity. I hope it will be available again.

Maybe amazon will carry the video.

Copycat Fred's Spongebob Rip-off

[carboyyoung · 1/10 · 11 March 2024]

This has got to be one of the worst Spongebob Rip-offs out there. It was so bad that even the voice actor regret being part of the show, and I don't blame him.

The show is annoying as heck. The voice acting is horrible and the characters are totally unlikable. This show lacks any sort of character development to a point where you cannot differentiate the two banana brothers. And let's talk about Fred, he is very loud and so annoying to a point that you'd want to shut this TV show off. Mr. Greenrind also rips off Mr Krabs and Squidward, and there are so many more rip offs. The voice acting is subpar, despite having talented voice actors.

The animation style is awful, lazy, and cheap looking, and I am not even going to even consider that this show was made in 2005. The show has a 240p resolution, which looks pretty bad. Heck, even Bugs Bunny looked better than this, despite being much older.

Hilarious!!

[Mhjm6 · 10/10 · 19 June 2006]

"Coconut Fred's Fruit Salad Island!" is a hilarious show that is on Saturday mornings on WB. It stars Coconut Fred and all of his friends on the island, and every episode is a very funny misadventure of theirs. Most of the time, it is because of Coconut Fred's trouble making antics which makes it funny, and other stuff going on on the island at the same time. The humor is great and nobody on the island is very bright at all, which adds it being as amusing as it is. I don't think this could be funnier. The voice talents of the characters are magnificently superior and are exaggerated, which adds to the show's hilarity. If this is ever on DVD, I'm getting it A.S.A.P!

Strongly recommended for a good laugh.

AMAZING!

[doomberry · 10/10 · 20 July 2022]

Cocoanut Fred is a hilarious cartoon with many wacky characters and situations, I enjoyed more than spongebob! Despite there only being 13 episodes each one manages to squeeze all possible laughs out of you when watching it.
