Created by Thomas W. Lynch, Scout's Safari is an American teen Dramedy that aired from October 5, 2002 to February 7, 2004.Jennifer "Scout" Lauer (Anastasia Baranova) moves to South Africa from New York City to live with her mother Cheryl (Chantell Stander), stepfather Roger Shickler (Ashley Dowds), and stepbrother Tyler (Jarred Uys) at a tourist lodge once her father Dennis (Nick Boraine), a professional photographer, goes off on a year-long assignment. While she's adjusting to the culture shock, she reconnects with her Forgotten Childhood Friend Bongani Sabisi (Freedom Hadebe), and initially tries to hide her psychic ability to connect with animals. However, African people are far more accepting of her gift than Westerners are, and so the show follows her and Bongani solving problems, having major cultural dissonance and growing closer. The show provides heaps of Character Development for Scout and, while not having any major story arcs, is best viewed in correct order. It currently is complete, and reruns used be found on Discovery Kids (now Discovery Family).Has nothing to do with this Scout. Or that scout. | |

No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: Tyler believes this wholeheartedly and recites this to his parents as an explanation for some of his hijinks. They disagree. [invoked] | |

Magical Negro | |
| Scout's Safari / int_32cb267a | comment |
Magical Negro: There is a black woman who shares Scout's power and thus qualifies. Another case involved a sangoma (spiritual healer) who made up a ritual to get rid of Tyler's nightmares because he needed to make sure they wouldn't come back. It worked, too. | |

Character Development | |
| Scout's Safari / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Scout, in spades. Bongani is already a mature person when the series starts, but he arguably gets more serious near the show's end. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? | |
| Scout's Safari / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Scout's reaction to elephants, initially. Bongani helps her overcome her fear by the end of the episode by leaving her alone with one for a while. | |

Where da White Women At? | |
| Scout's Safari / int_6849cc47 | comment |
Where da White Women At?: Exactly why the writers refused to have Scout and Bongani be a couple. They felt it was too stereotypical, although they relented somewhat in the last episode and had a Ship Tease as mentioned above. | |

Politically Correct History | |
| Scout's Safari / int_7e74d66f | comment |
Politically Correct History: Averted. Scout's grandmother and Bongani's grandfather were very close and virtually no one during that time approved, especially when they ran around having adventures alone with each other in the wilderness for weeks at a time. It was actually considered a great shame during said time period. | |

| Scout's Safari / int_83a903f6 | comment |
Stepford Smiler: Pre-season one Scout is heavily implied to have been pretty miserable outside of being with Sherna but very good at pretending she was okay. When things go wrong in season one she has a tendency to act like nothing's wrong, but Bongani usually calls her on this. | |

Last Minute Hook Up: It's left open to interpretation. Scout and Bongani may or may not be in love and may or may not have confessed it to each other during the last episode. It Makes Sense in Context. | |

Ship Tease | |
| Scout's Safari / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: During the final episode, Bongani embraces Scout, holds both her hands, presses their heads together and whispers that she's a part of him now. She says she feels the same. It's actually done pretty well in spite of how cheesy it could've been, so kudos to the actors. | |

Friend to All Living Things: Sort of. Scout gradually grows to fit this role as the series goes on, but her ability to communicate with animals does not mean they're her friends. | |
