Kratts' Creatures

Kratts' Creatures is a 1994 educational children's series hosted by Chris and Martin Kratt. In this show, the Kratt brothers travel around the world and teach children about the world of animals, with help from a fifteen year old girl named Allison and an animated anthropomorphic animal named Ttark.

It was followed by an unofficial spin-off for preschoolers called Zoboomafoo in 1999, and an animated series called Wild Kratts in 2011.

"Allison: Hey, I knew I could get it working if I just used my head! (Beat) Ow."
 * Amusing Injuries: Usually happens to the brothers.
 * The most notable episode to involve this trope is "The Great Defenders".
 * And then there was the one where Allison is trying to fix her computer system, gets it working, and bangs her head on the underside of the desk.

"Allison: It says here it took them a number of dogs...a number of dogs? Sorry, I read that wrong. It took them a number of days to even get near the Tasmanian tiger. That makes more sense, because dogs like dingos have absolutely nothing to do with Tasmania."

 * Voice Changeling: Ttark, again. For example:


 * Voice with an Internet Connection: Basically the purpose of Allison, except she had a Magical Database rather than the Internet. And she could somehow follow the brothers' adventures on a monitor even though they were explicitly not being followed by a camera crew in-universe. And the footage was edited in spite of it supposedly being live.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: Ttark is prone to this.
