The Banana Splits lived in Hocus Pocus Park, where the cuckoo clock always read 6:55. Cartoons included in the show were The Adventures of Gulliver, The Arabian Knights, The Three Musketeers and Danger Island.

The characters consisted of Fleegle,
a beagle; Bingo, a gorilla; Drooper, a lion and Snorky, an elephant.

Fleegle would often assume the role as leader of the Banana Splits. Drooper and Bingo offered advice to viewers in the "Dear Drooper" segment, while Fleegle served as the reporter for "Banana Splits News."
