Characters
See also: List of Madagascar charactersThe Penguins of Madagascar features the four penguin characters from the Madagascar franchise, as well as the two chimpanzees and the three lemurs. Characters new to the franchise include Marlene the otter and Alice the zookeeper, among others.
All four of the penguin characters are designed differently in the cartoon than they are in the movie to make them more unique and easier to tell apart. Skipper's head is flatter in the series, Kowalski is taller, Private is shorter and rounder, and Rico has an unexplained scar over his mouth, a double chin, and a feathery Mohawk. Their personalities and abilities were also exaggerated. The texture of the characters was also changed to be better suited for television work.
