Kool Ka Lang (Be Cool) is a mixed action and situational comedy television show in the Philippines which aired Tuesday evenings on the GMA Network from 1998 to 2003. The show was part of the network's GMA KiliTV block.

Plot

The sitcom started with Empoy (Bonel Balingit) riding on a boat going to Manila to look for his long-lost twin, Jack (Raymart Santiago). However as he arrived at the Manila pier he was victimized by the Budol-budol Gang. Jack immediately came to the rescue and defeated the gang members in a hand-to-hand combat. After Empoy was rescued he introduced himself to Jack, while showing the top picture where he and Jack posed. After a brief introduction, Jack showed the bottom picture where his and Empoy's legs were shown. The pictures were bonded together (an obvious spoof from the hit movie "Parent Trap") and in an instant the brothers reunited. Jack decided to bring along Empoy to his neighbourhood, Barangay Dagat-dagatan, where they lived as tenants of Mang Mags (Joey Marquez), who also owns an operating shop for vehicles.

The brothers also made friends with other people, including the fast-talking Long (Robert "Long" Mejia), midget Dagul (Kapampangan word of "big") (Romy Pastrana), playboy Bal (Jomari Yllana) and Jie (Benjie Paras). Barangay Dagat-dagatan is also a place where different characters emerge and get involved in the lives of Jack, his brother and his friends.
