MAIN CAST:
Alastair Duncan – Phileas Fogg
Ross Higgins – Jean Passepartout
Max Osbiston – Mr. Fix
Owen Weingott – Lord Maze

 

      Around the World in Eighty Days is an adventure novel written by Jules Verne and first published in 1872 as serialized installments in the French newspaper Le Temps. Events such as the first transcontinental railroad in America, the opening of the Suez Canal, and the linking of railways in India fascinated Verne on what that could mean for global travel. No longer relegated to globe-trotting adventurers, it would soon be possible that the common person could circumnavigate the world on a whim. And that was what kicked his story off.

The 1873 collected publication.

      The novel follows wealthy English gentleman Phileas Fogg who argued with members of his club that the opening of a new railway section in India made it possible to get around the world in 80 days. He's challenged to prove that, with the wager being half his fortune: £20,000 (or roughly £1.9 million in today’s money, time of writing). With his remaining money and valet, Jean Passepartout, Fogg sets out to win the wager.

Phileas Fogg's path.

            Of course, the journey wasn’t smooth. Fogg and Passepartout encountered numerous obstacles both natural and man-made along the way; starting with the fact that the newspaper article that inspired the whole thing ended up being wrong, and that the connecting track in India hadn’t yet been built. They gained a new traveling companion in Aouda, who was set to be sacrificed against her will by fire. They also had a shadow: Scotland Yard detective Fix, who believed Fogg was a bank robber whose description he matched and was determined to arrest him either on British territory or back in London. Ultimately, Fogg did get arrested and subsequently released when it was learned that the actual culprit had already been caught. Believing he missed the deadline, Fogg was resigned to living in poverty until Passepartout reminded him that they were actually ahead of schedule, basically thanks to time zones chipping away time from their journey as went against the sunrise. Fogg won the bet and the love of Aouda, and split the money with Passepartout and Fix.

      Around the World became one of Verne’s most acclaimed works. Following the book’s publication, many attempts had been made to follow Fogg’s fictional path and either match or beat his record. Rival reporters Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland both attempted it in 1889 for their respective newspapers; achieving it within 72 days and 76 ½ days, respectively. Theater critic and historian James Willis Sayre used only public transportation in 1903 to make it in just over 54 days. Jumping ahead, media executive Sir Nicholas Coleridge did it within 78 days in 1984, while Monty Python member Michael Palin did it as part of a travelogue, Around the World in 80 Days with Michael Palin, in 17 hours short of 80 days in 1988. In 2009 twelve celebrities did a relay version of the journey for the BBC’s Children in Need charity drive; and in 2017 cyclist Mark Beaumont did it by bicycle in just over 78 days.

            As with other enduring works of literature, Around the World has been adapted, expanded upon, or parodied numerous times across various media; including stage plays as early as 1874, films as early as 1919, television films, games and more. One of those was an Australian animated series that aired in 1972; the first Australian-produced cartoon to be aired on American network television.

Fogg, Passepartout and Toto.

            Around the World in Eighty Days was a very loose adaptation of the novel. While the protagonist was still Phileas Fogg (Alastair Duncan), his motivations for the journey were much different. This version was in love with a woman named Belinda Maze (Janet Waldo) and wanted to marry her. But her uncle, Lord Maze (Owen Weingott), was against a commoner becoming her husband. Maze proposed a wager: if he could successfully travel the world in 80 days, he would allow him to marry Belinda. If he failed, he would never see her again. A pot of £20,000 was thrown in for good measure (and as a nod to the original plotline).

Mr. Fix being chastised by Lord Maze.

            Fogg accepted this proposal and set out with his French valet, Jean Passepartout (Ross Higgins), and Passepartout’s pet monkey, Toto (even the Australians weren’t above the animal sidekick trope prevalent in that era). They would employ all manner of transportation native to the 19^th century including balloons, trains, animals and ships. However, Maze planned to win this bet and hired a saboteur, Mr. Fix (Max Osbiston), to interfere and impede Fogg’s journey by any means necessary.

The random collection of stuff Fogg asked for coming in handy as makeshift transport.

            Around the World in Eighty Days debuted on NBC on September 9, 1972. Each episode followed a similar structure: Fogg announced their intended location; Fogg asked Passepartout to pack a bag with a seemingly random collection of items that actually end up serving a purpose in the episode; Fogg delivered a proverb to Passepartout that would also help in their success by episode’s end; Fix had a full discussion with himself about how he planned to stop Fogg; Fogg and Passepartout followed their itinerary and along the way Fogg would explain the history of their visited locations; Fix was hot on their heels, usually in a disguise that they failed to see through at first (typically that of the driver of whatever transport they were taking); and the episode ended with Fogg exclaiming “Good show, Passepartout!” The series was approached with a more comedic slant than the book; particularly in the ridiculous plans Fix kept coming up with that backfired on him, or Passepartout’s overreactions to various situations as they arose (as well as constantly declaring “Fix tricks!” when things went wrong). Occasionally, Maze would take a hand in trying to derail Fogg himself. Belinda would also send Fogg support, information she overheard about Maze’s schemes (some of which was falsely planted by Maze with that expectation) and joined him occasionally along the way.

Fix up to his tricks posing as an engineer.

            The series was produced by Walter J. Hucker, a staff producer for Air Programs International, and entirely written by Chet Stover and directed by Leif Gram, respectively. The series’ music was composed by John Sangster, with the theme being a variation of the tune from “Mademoiselle from Armentières”. Around the World ran for a single season of 16 episodes, and although we never see them actually return to England, the final episode ended with them on their way. 40 years after its original airing, Visual Entertainment would release the complete series to DVD. Additionally, a statue of Mr. Fix was reportedly seen at the Zoo XII Months in Ukraine.

WHERE'S WALDO? (2019)

 

WHERE’S WALDO? (2019)
(Universal Kids, Peacock, July 20, 2019-July 3, 2021)
 
DreamWorks Animation Television

 

 

MAIN CAST:
Joshua Rush – Waldo
Haley Tju – Wenda
Eva Carlton – Odlulu
Thomas Lennon – Wizard Whitebeard, various
Piotr Michael – Arfolomew, Fritz

 

 

 In 2017, NBCUniversal relaunched the network formerly known as Sprout as Universal Kids, which would house their family offerings to compete with similar networks. Sprout would continue on as a pre-school programming block in the early morning hours, while older children and teens would be the focus for the remainder of the day. DreamWorks Animation, which was purchased by NBCUniversal in 2016, was tapped to provide content for the network in the form of reruns from other places and originals. 

(Top) The original Waldo characters: Odlaw, Wizard Whitebeard, Wenda, Waldo and Woof.
(Bottom) The crew gets a new look: Arf, Wizard Whitebeard, Wenda, Waldo, Odlulu and Fritz.

One of those original programs was a new adaptation of the Where’s Waldo? series of books—the first in almost 30 years. While the original series, which aired on CBS in 1991, stuck very closely to the books by emulating the art style of creator Martin Hanford and featuring the character traveling to various wonderous worlds, this new series, developed by Koyalee Chanda and Lucas Mills, decided to not only revise the characters a bit, but also to keep things more grounded in reality to serve as an edutainment show dealing with geography and cultures.

Wenda taking point for some tandem surfing.

Waldo (Joshua Rush) was now a pre-teen member of the WorldWide Wanderer Society; an international organization of curious travelers that went around the world celebrating different cultures, learning about foreign lands and solving problems through observation in the hopes of earning their stripes and becoming Wizard-Level Wanderers. Waldo was knowledgeable and inquisitive, possessing an inventive spirit as well as a magic hat that could seemingly hold anything within. Waldo’s best friend and traveling companion was Wenda (Haley Tju), who was the brawn to Waldo’s brains. She was a talented athlete always ready to jump into the action. While she still wore stripes, her clothing was more unique rather than a female version of Waldo’s, and she was designed with darker skin and hair.

Fitness day with Wizard Whitebeard.

Their mentor was Wizard Whitebeard (Thomas Lennon), whose long white beard could act as a semi-sentient appendage. Although he occasionally wore the red robe and tall blue hat of his original incarnation, he was designed as a stereotypical hipster without shoes. He was fun-loving and a bit scatterbrained at times. He was also the keeper of a cache of Magic Keys. The Magic Keys could be used like a magic wand, each possessing their own special ability. For instance, the Greek Myth Key brought mythological figures to life, or the Quick Bloom Key allowed any plant to move and garden like a human. To reverse the spell, the keys’ bow simply had to be twisted 180-degrees before being used again. While Waldo’s loyal dog Woof would get introduced later on, initially the only canine friend was Whitebeard’s dog, Arfolomew (Piotr Michael), or “Arf” for short.

Hanging out at Wanderer HQ in the Wander Globe chair.

Waldo and Wenda typically spent their time at Whitebeard’s house—also known as Wanderer HQ—playing some kind of game, engaging in one of his many eccentric hobbies, or listening to a story from one of his many globe-trotting adventures. It was there where they would receive a communication from a fellow Wanderer via a Wander Post (basically, a postcard whose image could magically come to life) alerting them to the discovery of a once-lost Magic Key that Waldo and Wenda would need to retrieve. Whitebeard would summon the Wander Globe—a globe attached to a funky chair—and recited the chant “By striped staff and white of beard, I summon magic wild and weird! Spin o magic globe to show where these Wanderers will go!”, which would cause the globe to project an image of the country the Wander Post came from, followed by Whitebeard and/or Waldo giving a little information on the area and its people. As this version of the Waldo didn’t carry a walking stick that created portals to new locations, Waldo and Wenda would jump into a magic suitcase after exclaiming “Ready…set…Wander!” that would transport them exactly where they needed to go. After ejecting them, the suitcase would shrink itself down before landing for storage in Waldo’s hat.

Odlulu and Fritz up to mischief.

Of course, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. The race was on to get the key before Anti-Wanderer Odlulu (Eva Carlton) got it first. Odlulu was a former Wanderer who was impulsive and patient, wanting the keys to fulfill her own selfish desires for success, attention, or as some banal appliance—like a hair dryer. She was a gender-flipped version of franchise antagonist Odlaw, but rather than just be an evil double to Waldo, she wore an outfit similar to the classic Wenda outfit in Odlaw’s black and yellow stripes, a brimmed cap, and Odlaw’s pointed glasses. Odlulu was accompanied by her pet ferret, Fritz (Michael), who wore a purple and green hoodie. While he was loyal to Odlulu, he was even more loyal to his stomach and couldn’t keep from being distracted by any food item they encountered. Despite being the series’ “villain”, Odlulu wasn’t really malicious or evil. Rather, she was just self-absorbed and oblivious to the negative affects her actions took on others or the world around her. Her use of the keys often led to chaos that the Wanderers had to overcome and eventually clean up. There were times she even helped and seemed remorseful; of course, whatever lesson she learned was gone by the time the next episode rolled around. It was never explained how Odlulu knew about the location of the keys or got around as she always seemed to be in place ahead of the Wanderers, or why she left the Wanderer society.

Several other Wizards, many of whom possessed their own Magic Keys or watched over where one was located, appeared over the course of the series. Like Whitebeard, they each had wild hair: the male Wizards all had funky beards, while the women all had unique styles. Wizard Wavybeard’s (Bobby Moynihan) beard moved like calm water; Wizard Nightingale (Retta) had an occupied birdcage wrapped in her hair; Wizard Featherbeard’s (Oscar Nuñez) beard and hair resembled a bird’s plumage; Wizard Blizzardbeard’s (Tom Kenny) beard looked like a storm cloud; Wizard Artbeard’s (“Weird Al” Yankovic) beard stored his art supplies and acted as an palette; Wizard Lariat (Kerri Kenney-Silver) could use her long braid as—what else?—a lariat; Wizard Dubloon’s (Danielle Pinnock) dreadlocks held any number of objects; Wizard Fix (Rachel Dratch) used her hair to store tools; Wizard Vinebeard (Carlos Alazraqui) had a long, slender beard that could be swung on like a vine; Wizard Odissi’s (Hannah Simone) hair danced along with her; Wizard Dustybeard’s (Cedric Yarbrough) beard was tied to resemble and archaeologist’s brush; Wizard Flambé’s (Sumalee Montano) hair resembled a four-tiered cake; Wizard Shadowbeard (Randall Park) had a five o’clock shadow rather than an actual beard; Wizard Amber (Nicole Bloom) had a laurel branch trapped in her hair like amber; Wizard Rockybeard’s (Rob Riggle) beard looked as if it was made of stone; Wizard Melodia’s (Stephanie Beatriz) hair was full of bells and chimes; Wizard Corriedale’s (Cheri Oteri) hair looked like a sheep’s coat; and Wizard Longbeard (Henry Winkler) actually had a short one.

Where’s Waldo? debuted on Universal Kids on July 20, 2019. It was written by Mills, F.M. De Marco, John Tellegen, Sam Cherington, Madison Bateman and Mimi Hess, with Mills serving as story editor. Each episode’s title was a pun that incorporated the featured location. Characters were designed by Melissa Manwill and Benjamin Tong, with animation provided by Snipple Animation Studios, Inc. The theme was performed by Distant Cousins, and Ben Bromfield supplied the score. As part of the promotion for the series, short clips of Rush and Tju talking about the show were shown during commercial breaks. Like other Waldo media, Where’s Waldo? was localized for various countries with Waldo’s name changed in the title, theme lyrics and dialogue (for example, he’s known as “Wally” in the United Kingdom), and had local actors re-record the lines.

Where's Waldo?

A number of recurring gags occurred through the series’ run. Wherever Odlulu and Fritz were, there would always be an occasion for someone to misidentify Fritz’s species; prompting Odlulu (and occasionally someone else) to correct them. Situations arose where Waldo found himself needing to construct a very elaborate device which he always christened with a name that ended in “-inator” (kind of like Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb, but without the whole trying to conquer the world part). As a nod to the books, there would be several moments where the viewer was tasked with finding Waldo in a crowded shot. These 10-second intervals would typically occur when the Wanderers went to a new location or Waldo needed to make one of his devices. Waldo would wander off while Wenda was distracted, prompting her to ask “Waldo? Where’s Waldo?” when she realized. Unlike the books and the original series’ “Waldo Minute”, these scenes weren’t as densely populated and did feature some limited motion as living things would gradually move out of the way to expose Waldo more. For the first 8 episodes, Tju would appear to introduce the episode and task the viewer with finding three additional objects in those scenes, returning at the end to highlight where they were and promote the next episode. After a few weeks’ hiatus, Tju would only occasionally appear to challenge the viewers to find Waldo as many times as they could in a quick character pop-up sequence.

Universal Kids, unfortunately, found itself struggling in its ratings. In June of 2019, development on original programming was stopped and the network’s development staff either laid off or moved to other NBCUniversal properties. It was decided instead to focus on the launch of their new streaming service, Peacock, in mid-2020. To bolster its original offerings, some shows were moved from other NBCUniversal networks onto it. Where’s Waldo?’s second season became one of the launch programs for the service on July 15th. Two more batches and a final episode were uploaded, bringing an end to the series as it wasn’t renewed for a third season.

While Peacock had all of the episodes, only the first season and first seven episodes of season 2 were available to view for free; the remainder required a paid subscription to the service. The first season was also made available to stream on Hulu, and purchasable on Apple TV, Prime Video, Google Play and Vudu. Several clips have been uploaded to the official Peacock Jr. YouTube channel as both promotional material and interactive content.
