The Crystal Coconut first appeared in the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' TV series]]. Its history on the show was that it was stolen from an unknown source by the great-great-grandfather of one of the show's main characters, [[Kaptain Skurvy]]. Skurvy's great-great-grandfather hid the Coconut on [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]], specifically in the eye of the mystical idol [[Inka Dinka Doo]]. However, after many years the coconut pops out of its hiding place and is found by [[Donkey Kong]], who is then proclaimed the future ruler of Kongo Bongo Island. The show's main antagonists [[King K. Rool]] and the aforementioned Kaptain Skurvy constantly try to steal the coconut from the [[Kong]]s; the former wants to use it to take over Kongo Bongo Island; the latter believes it is his birthright as his ancestor stole the Coconut, and seems to want to use it to "rule the seven seas" as well.

The Coconut's powers in the show are inconsistent and range widely, as it primarily serves as a plot device.  It is known to be able to heal wounds, turn people invisible, freeze time (though living animals are unaffected), put someone in an endless sleep, and serve as a crystal ball that characters use for {{wp|scrying}}. Occasionally the Coconut projects images on its own, often warning the Kongs when Kaptain Skurvy and his crew are returning to Kongo Bongo Island, which suggests that the Coconut is an intelligent sentient being. Cranky Kong seems to be able to use the coconut to astral project to different places, though he must always return to where the Coconut is, even if it has been removed from its original location. For the duration of the show, the Crystal Coconut is kept in [[Cranky's Cabin|Cranky Kong's Cabin]], inside a safe disguised as a celestial globe. The only way to open the safe is for Cranky to tap his cane on the ground, but many times Cranky opens the safe unintentionally.
In the show, the Coconut does whatever the fuck the current plot wants it to.
