A cartoon mentioned in chapter 12 of Unexpected Daddy.
The show is about a group of animated penguins (Pete, Penny, Pendthrift, Pernicious, Penfold, and Penderton) who run what Unexpected Daddy/Alex/ describes as a tiki bar, the Paradise Pen. It's never actually mentioned in the canon what type of venue Paradise Pen is, and as there seem to be patrons who come there to hang out with their friends, but there is no sign of food or drink being served and nobody ever seems to pay for anything. The supporting characters are mostly anthropomorphic animals (people with cat ears and tails, or racially appropriate facial features, but otherwise appearing human), and a few apparent humans appear, especially when a crowd is shown. However, the main characters are penguins with human-like behaviour, the only characters who don't have approximately human proportions.
The humour in the series is often slapstick, and involves the consequences of the six penguins' plans to become rich and famous, which always misfire. They each have their own character weaknesses, such as Penfold's tendency to act without thinking, which are often key to the problems they find themselves in. The solutions to these problems always involve the penguins learning some important lesson, such as trusting authority figures or remembering to keep your promises.
It's noted that the dialogue sometimes contains double entendres which would change the meaning of the sentence if you know them, adding a second level of humour for any watching adults without being noticed by the kids.
The show's opening starts with a white screen showing the logo of the animation studio and/or distributor, which is pushed off the stage by two or three of the penguins, who are carrying musical instruments and then begin to play the main theme. There are at least nine different versions of this opening, with different combinations of instruments for the intro before the full music fades in.
The penguins all have different glasses, hats, and jewellery by which they can be identified. They also wear loud Hawaiian shirts and sandals, although they do change their colours. This has led to some confusion among parents of fans, as well as occasional minor characters (but only humans) who may have used each penguin's usual outfit as a colour code to recognise them.
