Brandy & Mr. Whiskers is an American TV series that ran from 2004 to 2006, with reruns airing until 2010. The titular characters are a snobbish dog and a hyperactive rabbit who end up stuck together in the Amazon Rainforest after Mr. Whiskers opens the door to their plane. Much like Gilligan's Island, there are episodes centered solely around the duo potentially leaving the jungle, but ultimately passing on the opportunity. These serious episodes often clashed with shows' slice-of-life and fourth-wall-breaking humor. For instance, the first episode is about the duo getting stuck in the Rainforest, and the very next episode is about a crocodile asking Brandy to babysit her eggs. The crocodile and her husband wanted to go upstream to eat eco-tourists, who could've easily rescued Brandy if she had just gone to them.

After Brandy climbs a tree and exclaims how much she hates the jungle, Mr. Whiskers exclaims how much he loves it. He walks forward smelling the ground and walks directly into Lola Boa's open mouth. Whiskers quickly runs right out of her stomach and Lola tries to apologize for "scaring" him.

After trading Mr. Whiskers for a map, Brandy decides to go back for him and gets Lola's help to "sneak" him out. All goes well until Brandy trips on Lola's bloated gut and Mr. Whiskers gets belched out.

After the last time, Mr. Whiskers gets used to being swallowed whole and he lets Lola swallow him one last time while they're fleeing from Gasper. This complicates their escape as Lola's bulging stomach gets caught under a tree and it launches her into Brandy. When Gasper catches up with them, Mr. Whiskers casually climbs out of Lola to say his life, or at least someone's life, is flashing before his eyes.
