About Wunschpunsch
Sibling sorcerers Bubonic Preposteror and his sister Tyrannia must cast one disaster spell per week for their unseen boss. Their pets flip the script: the cat Maurizio and the raven Jacob intercept every potion and turn it against its makers before midnight. Season 1 from 2000 sets the ritual across 26 episodes of city-wide curses undone in time.
Season 2 from 2001 keeps the formula with new targets like traffic, weather, and holidays, plus sharper banter between the villains. The show adapts Michael Ende's novel with a French and German production and a catchy structure kids grasp fast. Watch both seasons in broadcast order, since the villa dynamic and running gags build week by week.
Good to know
The formula never hides itself: spell cast, animals interfere, midnight reversal, villains punished. That repetition is the charm for younger viewers and the test for older ones. The English and French versions both circulate, with the songs redone per language. At 52 episodes the run ends without a finale arc, so stop anywhere and the spell cycle simply closes.
