Blinky Bill is a series about the misadventures of a young koala named Blinky Bill, as well as his family and friends. It is initially set in a fictional rural town called Greenpatch. The series serves as a sequel to the 1992 film Blinky Bill: The Mischievous Koala, and both the animated series and film are based on a series of children's books created by Dorothy Wall. The title and theme song of the cartoon both changed over the course of the show's run, however, the individual seasons are still considered to be parts of the same series despite their varying titles.
In the first season, titled "The Adventures of Blinky Bill", Blinky and his fellow Greenpatch residents rebuild their home after it was destroyed by human loggers. They also come to terms with their new neighbors, the antagonistic Dingo family.
In the second season, titled "Blinky Bill's Extraordinary Excursion", Blinky and his friends become lost in the bushland and help various animals while wandering throughout Australia.
In the third season, simply titled "Blinky Bill" (but sometimes known in marketing materials as "Blinky Bill’s Extraordinary Balloon Adventure" or "Blinky Bill's Around the World Adventures"), Blinky and his friends rescue a group of circus animals, and travel around the world in a hot air balloon while trying to escape the owners of the circus and return all of the animals to their respective homes.
