I had the displeasure of having to watch this train wreck of a series when I was on my holidays. I still haven't recovered.
If you've seen any of those "David the Gnome" series, or "Alex and Alexis", you know what you're getting. This is an animated Spanish kids TV show about anthropomorphic fruit and vegetables, who live on an island at the foot of a volcano (I'm not making this up!), who get into all the usual "Saturday morning TV stuff" (lots of slapstick comedy and bad puns) I saw the English dub of this, and I couldn't keep watching. The dubbing is AWFUL (worse than 4Kids dubs of anime!). There is ridiculously poor dialog, and, worst of all, IT DOESN'T MATCH UP TO THE MOUTHS AT ALL!!!!!! But by far the worst part of the show is the animation. Believe me, it is TERRIBLE! If you've seen the old Hanna-Barbera or Filmation cartoons, where everything is blocky and character movements are looped over and over again, you'll still be shocked by "The Fruitties". There is no detail in ANYTHING, foreground or background, and it looks like diarrhea splashed over your TV screen. It's obvious the show was thrown together for about £5 to fill a time slot.
I thought this show was made in the 70s or 80s, because it looks so cheap, but no, it was made in THE 90S!!!! When animation was put up to a standard.
Please avoid this show, if you want to remain sane.

"Los fruittis" was a Spain/France cartoon featuring talking fruities.
I remember "Los fruittis" from my childhood in the early 90s. The show was about little cute fruities living on a forest island, getting in to adventures and having fun. Every time i listen to the intro song, I get a bit nostalgic about the old days. Anyone who saw it as a kid knows what I mean.
The main characters are talking fruits, vegetables and a little girl. The script is very simple because the cartoon was obviously made for kids, but it has its charm, a grown-up adult won't appreciate it. The one thing I clearly remember was the intro song with the little dancing fruits and the little girl.
Brings good memories.

When I was young, I used to watch the Greek version of this until I found out it was actually from Spain Now, I'm looking at this in 2022 and I'm like "Does Pak have a crush on Kumba?"
