The Adventures of T-Rex (T-レックス (T-rekkusu)) is an animated TV
series that aired in syndication from 1992 to 1993 in North America.
The show features five musical Tyrannosaurus brothers who played to
sold-out crowds as a vaudeville group for the Dragon company owned by
the beautiful and wealthy Myrna while also secretly fighting crime as
"T-REX," masterminded by Professor Edison. The show, an
American/Japanese coproduction between C&D (Créativité et
Développement), Gunther-Wahl Productions and well-known anime
producer Kitty Film, lasted only one season.Set in a world of
anthropomorphic dinosaurs, brothers Bernie (blue), Bruno (pink), Bubba
(green), Buck (yellow) and Bugsy (purple) were born with special
powers to help fight crime. Each brother's special power was related
to a specific part of their anatomy; Bernie's legs, Bruno's arms,
Bubba's tail, Buck's mouth and teeth, and Bugsy's telekinetic eyes. In
the day, they make up a singing group that perform at the Dragon
Company in Rep City. The group rode out on their Rexmobile to battle
"Big Boss" Graves, crime kingpin of Rep City, and his evil
organization The Corporation which also consists of Little Boss,
Adder, Madder, Shooter, Axe, and the Doctor. Kid sister Ginger was
part of the singing group, but didn't know about her brothers' secret
identities.One of the show's other noteworthy elements was giving the
T-Rexes imitation celebrity voices: Jack Benny, Art Carney, Bing
Crosby, Humphrey Bogart and Jimmy Durante.
