The Jungle Forest Show

The Jungle Forest Show (formerly known as The Rodfellows) is a Flash-animated web series made by Dan P. Lyons. It began in 2014 as a friendly rip-off of The Bedfellows, but as years went by, it has gained infamy due to a massive amount of fetish imagery (both in-show and out-of-show.) and recent controversies with its creators (see "Controversy"). It is currently distributed by LMNB.

Plot
Finto, Kody, Widenar, Jimmy, Alice, and Hashbrown live in a house in the Jungle Forest. They have lots of adventures and solve problems like the Jungle Forest Gang.

Why It's Neither A Fellow, nor it is from the Jungle Forest
'''Important note: This show is very controversial, for reasoning explained below. No positive pointers/sections will be permitted on this page. (You will have to look for the movie's redeeming qualities, and that can be counted as a positive pointer)'''
 * 1) Awkward, uncaring, cheap and horridly atrocious Adobe Flash animation that looks like it came from an early to mid-2000's Newgrounds game. Even The Eggs (which has cheap animation) looks slightly better.
 * 2) The characters, especially Finto and Samantha, are rip-offs to the characters from another web series called The Bedfellows (Which was what the show’s original concept was).
 * 3) * Of course, as mentioned 2 times before, it’s not helping that it’s a ripoff of The Bedfellows.
 * 4) ** Plus, the genders are swapped. Finto is male compared to Fatigue who is female, and Samantha is a female version of Sheen.
 * 5) Quantity over Quality: This series had 9 seasons, had over 116+ episodes and lasted for 7 years, and such a length is too long, at least for a web series like this.
 * 6) Boring and slow episodes that have little to no plot such as the sleeping episodes.
 * 7) Similar to how Tomorrow's Pioneers promoted terrorism to children, the show here promotes pedophilia and zoophilia to children, which is very inappropriate.
 * 8) * What's also disgusting is that the show's creator (Dan P. Lyons) is also a pedophile and zoophile too and has also committed multiple sexual offenses (grooming) to children. He has also shown his feet and private parts to children too.
 * 9) There is a lot of plagiarism and copyright infringement in the series. An example would be that the theme song for “The Rodfellows Improved” is the Arthur theme song, and the current intro for the series (when it's now The Jungle Forest Show) is a carbon copy/poor parody of the King of the Hill intro.
 * 10) * In fact, the show even had Greeny Phantom characters. So, the show was a whole rip-off from the start.
 * 11) * The "Rodfellows/Data Crew" closing logo at the end starting with Return of the Data Crew is a rip-off of the Deedle-Dee/Judgemental Films/3 Arts Entertainment closing logo seen at the end of every King of the Hill episode, as both contain quotes as heard in the episode. This shows how very unoriginal Dan is with his series.
 * 12) The episode Gi's Very Big Belly caused controversy with the show's creator for its plot, which involves Gi getting very fat by eating cookies. The same goes with The Chocolate Cookies, another episode involving Gi getting fat by eating cookies. Both of these episodes are deleted off Dan's YouTube, but thankfully that doesn't stop people from archiving the messed-up episodes of this series as well as one of its spin-offs Dan and his cronies made.
 * 13) Its lackluster movie The Rodfellows Movie is no better and is just as unoriginal.
 * 14) The voice acting is terrible and bland. Some of it is too quiet, and some voices are poorly recorded on a low-quality microphone.
 * 15) * And what's worse is that majority of the show previously used text-to-speech voices instead of real voice acting!
 * 16) The Jungle Forest Gang are very unlikeable and stereotypical.
 * 17) * Finto is shown to be a Gary Stu’s at times, and looks like a purple recolour of Reader Rabbit.
 * 18) * Kody is the stereotypical fat guy who is obsessed with pizza.
 * 19) ** Speaking of which, most of the characters in the show like Gideon, Napoleon, Kody, Ruthie, and even the creator’s self-insert character are extremely fat with huge stomachs, which is surprising for the creator considering the fact of how he has an inflation fetish.
 * 20) * Finiette sounds way too suggestive when she speaks.
 * 21) * Hashbrown has a very annoying lisp.
 * 22) * The puppy twins, Jimmy and Widenar, have character designs ripping off Parappa the Rapper. And to make matters worse, they have both been involved in sexual activities.
 * 23) The theme song in the current series used from 2018-2021 is badly sung and composed, with the aforementioned current intro having a poorly made MIDI parody/soundalike of the King of the Hill theme, "Yahoos and Triangles" by The Refreshments.
 * 24) Bland art style. That's all we can say.
 * 25) The reason why Dan created the show was that he wanted to groom kids and nothing else.

Overall
LMNB was a "company" known for getting into a lot of controversies due to how Dan P. Lyons, Darren A. Nichols, Alexander Mortensen, and Marshall Bourne run it in a wrong way, as they cause drama towards users who confront them. Meanwhile, the show itself is known for how it had a very dark side into it, such as the "sleeping" episodes, especially Bedwetting Finniette from The Rodfellows Improved (the second installment of Dan's Rodfellows series.), which as the title implies, featuring Jimmy blowing raspberries on Finniette, to the point where it looks like he is having oral sex with her in an attempt to make her laugh and pee on the bed like a child. The sleeping episodes are known for having no context to them as well as having Jimmy and Widenar, the show's two underaged characters, being endangered in these situations. On July 5, 2021, assets of The Jungle Forest Gang and The Data Crew got leaked, and this led to drama occurring, causing the company to shut down.

The controversy began when Dan was exposed for having an inflation fetish in, 2018 and he admitted to masturbating to it on a YouTube comment. He also started to make for a film called Life of Danny Cat, which contained scenes of polygamy and pedophilia. However, the script for it got leaked, and this caused the people who used be friends with him cut ties with him because of the nature of the project. When it was found out that he did this, he sent pictures of his private parts to minors. He has also been exposed for being racist, as evidenced by a Google+ post from 2018, where he used the N-word in one of his posts. He also drew porn of the show’s characters outside of social media, such as help Alexander make a spin-off episode of the show called  Birth of the 4G1G , which shows Alex as his wolf self-insert, getting it on with the show's female characters, Samantha, Hashbrown, and Finniette. Alongside doing those drawings, he also did rather disgusting belly inflation porn drawings of the show's female characters, including pornographic drawings of Alexander and Samantha "getting it on" against a pink bed, a pedophilic drawing involving Finto "fiddling" with his "violin", Phillop, a minor, licking Ruthie's "Chupa Chups" in a blue bed, and sent the drawings to the minor. Additionally, Dan used to have a FurAffinity account back in 2017 but closed down a year later due to tons of exposure on him. He has now shown his feet to a minor. He and Alex have no longer interact with Darren as of November 20, 2021.

Darren Alexander Nichols
(Pip2010/Pip Pip/RainbowDashFan2010/Darren Pipster)

The biggest problem out of the three LMNB founders. Darren got exposed for grooming minors just like Dan (especially Glidefan, who was previously friends with Darren, as Darren made porn comics out of him (despite him being '15 years old at the time), causing him to lose his temper). He also has been exposed for being racist, faking suicide many times, and (along with Dan and Alex) harassing certain people and driving them to suicide. When he got exposed, he started being very racist, homophobic towards other people and lying many times to cover the controversy (which shows that he can't handle criticism). Many things have been revealed about him as well as time goes by, such as his email address, the fact that he has a PornHub account (and follows two suspicious accounts named Tiny Teen City and My 18 Teens), the address of the house where he lives, and (according to Glide) he also tried to make child pornography  out of one of the main characters in The Rodfellows, Widenar. He is also shown to dislike the Black Lives Matter movement, as shown in a Discord message where he uses both the n-word and the s-word and insults Dafne in a rather mean, racist, and homophobic way. He also complains to his parents about how people give him constructive criticism, which shows that he refuses to handle the criticism. They reminded him to block the people who hate him due to how they usually caused the drama against him so it could stop them from laughing at him. When it comes to the live streams on StreamYard, he has a mental breakdown for making vent streams, screaming, and crying during the stream in front of people who appear on it, like on November 2021, when he got confronted by his parents, he threw a huge breakdown, which led to his parents taking away all of his stuff, and telling him that his behavior would him into big trouble with them. In August 2021, his old Discord account got suspended for sexual content. He has since cut all ties with Dan and Alex and is now the co-owner of Avelo Breeze Animation. He was rumoured to have been finally arrested for his actions on March 2022 by a user named Clarabel Adoring. This was proven to be false on the same day. In April 2022, Darren got his channel ostracised by YouTube, but it was reinstated on May 12th.

Alexander has severe anger issues and has been known to be very homophobic and racist towards others in the community. He yells a lot in his videos (and we do mean a lot) when he’s not working with LMNB. A notable example of his racism goes back to a live stream where he said the N-word while role-playing as one of The Data Crew characters. Alex has also been known to complain a lot, would constantly complain about how the 2000s and 2010s were better than 2020, and once even threatened to kill himself if the COVID-19 cases in the US went up to a hundred thousand. Like Darren and Dan, he was also exposed for being a pedophile and grooming minors. He groomed other minors into a polygamous, pedophilic relationship (the minor is now thankfully safe and escaped from them). Alex is also obsessed with porn and has gotten many people to draw pornography of various characters, some of which involved real and fictional minors, including the ones in The Rodfellows. The ironic thing about Alex was that he was groomed by Dan at 16 and is practically his mentor. He has since cut ties with Darren.

Episodes with their Pages (NSFW ahead, please view them at your own risk!)

 * Gi's Very Big Belly and The Chocolate Cookies - Two episodes that are notorious for focusing on nothing but showcasing the creator's belly inflation fetish to his target audience.
 * The Sleeping Episodes - As mentioned in Controversy, out-of-context filler episodes where we watch the characters sleep and that's much it. They gained similar notoriety like the Gina episodes, especially Bedwetting Finniette and the fact that Jimmy and Widenar, two of the show's underaged characters, are endangered in these situations.
 * Birth of the 4G1G - The fourth episode of one of its spin-offs (in this case, The TRF Data Crew) that gained infamy during the ongoing LMNB drama, where it's speculated that this episode was used by its pioneers to masturbate to their female characters.

Related Shows

 * COMIX - A series by Alex V.A Mortensen that was produced when Windows Movie Maker was new at the time. It was harmless at first, but when the series switched from Microsoft Paint to Adobe Animate and when he partnered up with Daniel and Darren (and was later adopted as part of, and a spin-off too, the "Rodfellows" series of sorts), that's where things in the series got into a whole new low.
