Baloo the bear is a seaplane cargo-for-hire operator from the port city of Cape Suzette in a time not unlike the 1930s. His twin-engine flying boat, the ''Sea Duck'', is his most prized possession, and he favors his freedom over all else, including paying his bills. When the bank forecloses on his debts, a young entrepreneur/lady bear/single mother named Rebecca Cunningham snaps up his business, his plane, and his home, and opens the "Higher-For-Hire" air cargo service. Rather than abandon his "baby" to her and whatever low-rent pilot she may hire, he stays on, working for the day when he can buy back the ''Sea Duck'' and be rid of her.

* [[Badass Princess]]: Princess Lotta Lamour from "The Road to Macadamia". She's not afraid to confront her kingdom's [[Evil Chancellor]] ("Touch me and you're dust, buster!"), and during a fight she knocks out several of the chancellor's [[Mooks]] with a big mallet.

* [[Badass Spaniard]]: Don Karnage fancies himself as one of these, but invariably comes off as just buffoonish. (Interestingly, some fanfics based on this show not only have him play this trope straight, but also transform him into a psychologically tortured [[Anti-Villain]]). Note, though, that, while he may not be [[Badass]] per se, he's ''still'' [[Not So Harmless|very dangerous]].

* [[Beary Funny]]: Baloo, Rebecca, Molly and Kit.

* [[Beleaguered Assistant]]: Kit sometimes is this due to Baloo's occasional idiocies and [[Jerkass]] tendencies. Rebecca and Baloo himself often play this trope as well, depending on who is [[Idiot Ball|leading the madness]].
