OH. MY. GOSH. 
I thought I was the only person who still remembers this show! It was one of my absolute favorites! I remember certain things about the period of time I was obsessed with that show, such as:
- Wanting to cry during the episode where DK was banished to the mountains. I remember my dad laughing and asking what the matter was, because I was huddled up behind the recliner while DK was singing about being an outcast ("Hero to Zero", or something like that).
- I drew a picture of the tree house where DK lived to help calm me down during a panic attack I was having in school.
- Once, when I heard Elton John's "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" on the radio, I daydreamed about the relationship between DK and Candy Kong.
- During yet another school-related panic attack, I tried to imagine what the laid-back, carefree Funky Kong would have told me if he were there with me.
Yeah I know, pretty dorky. But I was an eight year old with no friends, so... Yeah.
Although I must say, I'd probably get re-obsessed with it all over again if only I could find some way to rewatch the episodes... Damn the company for not putting out DVDs in the US...!

I never saw this show; I remember that it aired when I was in secondary school (the Netherlands usually get new TV shows years after the country of origin first airs it) and I wanted to see it because I'm a big fan of the DK Country games.
