Plot

Five color-coded dinosaur brothers—Bernie, Bruno, Bubba, Buck, and Bugsy—use unique anatomical powers to fight crime in a city of anthropomorphic reptiles. Their abilities stem from specific body parts: Bernie’s legs, Bruno’s arms, Bubba’s tail, Buck’s mouth and teeth, and Bugsy’s telekinetic eyes. By day they perform as a comedy singing quintet at the Dragon Company with their sister Ginger, who remains unaware of their secret identities. The brothers imitate classic celebrity voices including Jack Benny, Art Carney, Bing Crosby, George Burns, and Jimmy Durante. They ride the Rexmobile against Big Boss Graves and his Corporation.
