Believe it or not, I loved this series as a kid. And I've been on the hunt for it for years and years and years, but it seems impossible to find the series in its entirety...
What it rips from TLK, storywise, is basically that the cub's name is Simba and he's destined to be king of the jungle. Design-wise, it is fairly blatant that he's a copy of TLK Simba as an adult though, yes xP
Bimbo (gawd) was called Bambi in the Swedish version and "Buckshuck" in the English clips I've come across. And he was Simba's best friend (so they're not in love xP).
Generally they do a bit with the story as they like and it can range from really, really stupid to awesome. It's also actually strangely educational. Watching some of the episodes I have found, I'm starting to realise that maybe from them is where I learned those facts that I've "always known" :'D
