The Get Along Gang is a group of characters created in 1983 by Tony Byrd, Tom Jacobs, Ralph Shaffer, Linda Edwards, Muriel Fahrion, and Mark Spangler for American Greetings' toy design and licensing division, "Those Characters from Cleveland" (now Cloudco Entertainment), for a series of greeting cards. The Get Along Gang is a group of 12 pre-adolescent anthropomorphic animal characters in the fictional town of Green Meadow, who form a club that meets in an abandoned caboose and who have various adventures whose upbeat stories were intended to show the importance of teamwork and friendship. The success of the greeting card line led to a Saturday morning television series, which aired on CBS for 13 episodes in the 1984–1985 season, with reruns showing from January to June 1986. Characters The Get Along Gang franchise was loosely inspired by Hal Roach's Our Gang series of short films. The core six members of the gang appeared frequently in merchandising and the show.

She is very optimistic and always has a way to cheer people up, although sometimes she is quick to judge. Woolma Lamb (voiced by Georgi Irene) – An aspiring ballerina ewe.

Bingo Beaver (voiced by Scott Menville) – A prankster and gambler whose bets and mistakes sometimes cause his friends to be angry with him. Additional characters Braker Turtle (voiced by Frank Welker/Don Messick) – A smart and sensible problem-solver. He is also the fastest runner in Green Meadow. He enjoys acting hip, despite his nerdy
