Storyline

- TriviaThis entry in the series marks a change in direction from the previous three entries; Robyn Moore (who voiced Funnybunny in the previous Dot and the Bunny (1983)) takes over from Barbara Frawley as Dot, giving her a more lively and spunky voice with far more emphasis on the Australian accent , unlike Frawley's soft and well- spoken portrayal; The animation style differs from the previous three entries in that the characters are drawn in a more caricature type style (rather then the previous more real life style proportions), whilst Dot herself is given slightly longer hair and less cherub like features, though her trademark yellow dress and bare feet remain; The humans are portrayed by anthropomorphic animals rather than actual humans, albeit they and the animals interact with each other's worlds as though they are all the same species; Though still using live action backgrounds for the animated characters, they are far less prominent, with many live scenes enhanced with drawings, or occasionally with fully drawn backgrounds.; The film uses only two voice actors in Robyn Moore and Keith Scott, whilst the previous entries had used a whole ensemble of well-known or regular Australian voice actors.

Yoram Gross could use the best Australian actors of stage, film and television
I am very disappointed how the voice acting from this animated full-length film to "Skippy: Adventures in Bushtown" (1998) looks like. Robyn Moore voiced all female characters and Keith Scott voiced all male characters, including Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. I think that Yoram Gross could use the best Australian actors of stage, film and television for the voice acting of his best animated full-length films like "The Magic Riddle" (1991) and "Blinky Bill: The Mischievous Koala" (1992). Without them, the voice acting from this animated full- length film to "Skippy: Adventures in Bushtown" (1998) looks horrible. On the bright side, the voice acting from "Dot and the Kangaroo" (1977) to "Dot and the Bunny" (1983) looks good.
