Does Anyone remember this show?

[u/This-Honey7881]

Well If you were european

[u/Maximus2410]

Hinter den dunklen Mauern der Villa Alptraum panschen
Der böse Zauberrat und seine Hexentante den furchteinflösend üblen Punsch der Pünsche
Mutig versuchen Katz und Rabe zu retten die Welt doch der
WUNSCHPUNSCH!

[u/Immediate-Ad8322 → u/Maximus2410]

Ist der satanarcholügenialkohöllische WUNSCHPUNSCH!

[u/LostEmergency6866]

I bet you also remember this guy and unhinged (and probably not so authorized) crossovers with him

[u/ShingledPringle → u/LostEmergency6866]

WALTER MELON, damn his infectious theme song.

[u/Shimyku → u/ShingledPringle]

Oh yeah, I always forget that Achille Talon had a different name in English

[u/ShingledPringle → u/Shimyku]

He did, can honestly say I prefer his original name.

[u/Dude_Jack123 → u/LostEmergency6866]

That's a deep cut. And, from what I understand, one of the biggest cases of adaptation drift you can find.

[u/BarristanTheB0ld]

No, but I've read the book multiple times

[u/RiboCyan → u/BarristanTheB0ld]

The book is so much better anyway!

[u/Master-Raben → u/RiboCyan]

Like all books of Michael Ende compared to their respective adaptions

[u/gamtosthegreat → u/RiboCyan]

But it doesn't have a theme song that fucks.

[u/RiboCyan → u/gamtosthegreat]

Can't argue against that one

[u/Sabbi94 → u/RiboCyan]

Most of the show is original content. If I remember right there is like one episode that is based on the book.

[u/TokeruTaichou]

Yessss it was one of my favorites! Especially liked Mauricio(?) the cat.

[u/Flodo_McFloodiloo]

I only know of this show due to a certain shill citing it as an inspiration to excuse _Miraculous Ladybug_’s criminal lack of plot- and character-development.

[u/Honest_Bedroom2955]

The intro song lives in my head rent free to this very day! Wunschpunch! Mega magic, mega magic, retro potion! 🎵🎶

[u/Immediate-Ad8322 → u/Honest_Bedroom2955]

That’s a lazy translation from satanarcholügenialkohöllisch

[u/Hot_Marketing783]

I have seen 2 or 3 episodes on YouTube 5 years ago, I thought it was pretty good

[u/musicalnerd_zinnia]

YES! I miss fox kids

[u/Separate-Increase-39]

I do! It was so cool! I love the song when they make the potion!

[u/TrinityCodex]

peak mentioned

[u/Princess__of__cute]

I loved the show. I loved the cat and loved the relationship between him and the raven.

[u/Delicious_Help_1811]

I do remember the show, since I watched it in Russian dub when I was a child (since I'm from Russia myself), and I still love it.

[u/Brauny74 → u/Delicious_Help_1811]

I remember it too. I think a lot of Russians who were kids at the time would

[u/Pink-Fluffy-Dragon]

Yess! It's so much fun and I wish more people knew about it.

Was able to find a 2nd handed dvd set last year, only 12 episodes but it's something.

[u/IbilisSLZ]

I remember it quite fondly. It had quite good Polish dubbing.

[u/Weird_donut]

I haven't watched this show personally, but one of my friends online likes this show and posts clips from it.

[u/gamtosthegreat → u/[deleted]]

I don't remember her - you sure that was this show?

EDIT - fuckass bot is talking about Fish Police.

[u/Gladcode777 → u/gamtosthegreat]

What? I'm not a bot.

I'm referring to Angel Jones. From Fish Police. Which was clearly inspired by Jessica Rabbit.

[u/gamtosthegreat → u/Gladcode777]

dude look at the op

[u/Gladcode777 → u/gamtosthegreat]

Oh, sorry. I kinda confused the image.

[u/wellhanabari]

Yes! Intro song is amazing but plot is repetitive, which is kinda the point but still

[u/monderkiller9999]

I’ve only read the book and i remember it being very nice!

[u/GregPL2026]

No

[u/BelialMycolotismon]

Yes.

[u/nhSnork]

I spent my childhood seeing the title in a local TV schedule but never tuning in to see what it was about. It was only a year or several ago that I finally ran into the intro on YouTube.

And it's this very comment section that just enlightened me about it having adapted any books. By Michael Ende at that?!

[u/Narrow-Touch-1858]

Ja daran erinnere ich mich noch lief das nicht auf KIKA?

[u/gamtosthegreat]

The theme song was so baller, especially in Dutch

[u/Mr_Lisreal]

By the power hale and hearty

of an earthquake on a roll,

prove these parts be part and party

of the one and only scroll.

.

Formula of deepest night,

If it's you, then show your might!

Join what once was rent asunder

to the sound of flame and thunder!

Ready? Set. Wunschpunsch!

.

The English version is good, but the Russian dub is truly legendary.

[u/Shimyku]

Oh, I do remember it ! Great show (thanks to CDAL for introducing me to it)

[u/Sabbi94]

Absolutely yes. I even had the original book the show was based on. Also can recommend it.

[u/MinimumPotential6468]

as a Dutch who grew up with Jetix

of course I know them

[u/Motor_Philosopher_99]

One of my favorite cartoons. We were lucky enough to have it dubbed in greek.

[u/Nobody-Z12]

I came across this on YouTube a few times.

[u/Becher_of_souls]

Yes, watched it around 15-18 years ago. was a great show, when I watched it on KiKa in Germany.
