Background
Hocus Focus featured an apprentice wizard named Kryspen, who magically time traveled forward from the Middle Ages, and who worked in the film department of a museum, who, along with his shape-shifting pet named "Oulak", played short films. Kryspen's friends included the absent-minded Professor Rhombus, a young woman named Daisy, and a talking book.[2] The show only lasted one year.[3]
