"WishKid" was a Saturday morning animated series created to play off the
success of pre-teen movie star Macaulay Culkin (of Home Alone). Nick
McClary owned a magic baseball glove which, if punched three times,
granted his every wish. Stories--which were introduced in live action by
Culkin--revolved around Nick's wishes and the trouble that usually followed.
Nick's best friend was Darryl, the only one in on the glove's secrets and
usually became involved in the adventures. Nick was frequently harassed by
Frankie Dutweiler, the neighborhood bully; other characters included
neighbor
Mrs. Opal, Nick's mom and dad and his baby sister, Katie (voiced by
Macaulay's kid sister, Quinn. The show ran one year on NBC, with new
episodes airing on the Family Channel in 1996 (along with the original 13
NBC
episodes).
