14 | ''Sadie Sparks'' is an Irish-French animated TV series produced by Brown Bag Films and Creator/CyberGroupStudios. |
15 | |
16 | As the [[ExpositoryThemeTune theme song]] perfectly explains, the series follows the enchanting misadventures of a 14-year-old girl, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Sadie Sparks]], who finds out she has magical abilities and becomes a wizard-in-training with the guidance and mentorship from a very old and grumpy rabbit, Gilbert. He was sent to the human world from the Magical Realm to train Sadie and harness her volatile magical skills. Sadie must navigate [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent the challenging world of high school]], juggling exams whilst training to be a wizard, on top of keeping it a secret to all but her best friends, [[PluckyComicRelief Teepee]] and [[TheSmartGuy Lulu]], who accompany her adventures. |
17 | |
18 | The art style of the series is [[AllCGICartoon typically CGI]], but the Magical Realm segments [[MediumBlending are done in 2D]]. |
19 | |
20 | ''Sadie Sparks'' premiered 20 April 2019 on Creator/DisneyChannel in the UK and Ireland, but the first episode was released a week earlier on their Website/YouTube channel. The series is also planned to premiere in the US on the same channel. The intro to the series can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxFBWtmcXYI here]], and the trailer [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW88GRIrIbw here]]. |

22 | !!This show contains magical examples of the following tropes: |
23 | |
24 | * ABoyAndHisX: A trainee wizard girl and her talking rabbit mentor. |
25 | * AlliterativeName: '''S'''adie '''S'''parks. |
26 | * AllCGICartoon: Well, partially CGI as the Magical Realm segments are done in 2D. |
27 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Sadie's kid brother Max, an aspiring scientist whose [[BunglingInventor "inventions"]] never work out as intended, often embarrassing Sadie in the process. |
28 | * BettyAndVeronica: Sadie has a crush on blonde {{Muggle}} NiceGuy Sam, and constantly butts heads with brunette rival wizard-in-training Blaine. |
29 | * BorrowedCatchphrase: In the season finale, Sadie's friends have a collective "Oh. My. Giddy!" while Sadie [[spoiler: risks her life to seal a rift.]] |
30 | * CatchPhrase: "Oh, my giddy!" |
31 | * ExpositoryThemeTune: The theme explains that Sadie is a wizard-in-training and that she is helped by her bunny Gilbert and friends. |
32 | * FreudianTrio: Teepee (Id), Sadie (Ego), and Lulu (Superego). |
33 | * MagicMisfire: Most episodes involve Sadie's magic going haywire - if it's not an accident during training, it's an attempt to help herself or her friends getting way out of hand. |
34 | * MediumBlending: The series has an ArtShift between the CGI Human World and the 2D Magical Realm. |
35 | * MentorMascot: Gilbert the rabbit serves as Sadie's guide to magic. |
36 | * MuggleAndMagicalLoveTriangle: Sadie, Sam and Blaine by the end of season one. |
37 | -->'''Blaine:''' Seriously, what ''does'' she see in him?\ |
38 | '''Everyone else:''' Ooohhh! |
39 | * MuggleBestFriend: Teepee and Lulu are Sadie's two best friends, and the only Muggles in the cast to be in on the {{Masquerade}}. Despite having zero abilities, they're always happy to help deal with the MagicMisfire of the week. |
40 | * OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Sadie..except for the whole "wizard in training" thing. |
41 | * PersonalGainHurts: Any time Sadie uses magic to give herself or her friends a leg up at something, it goes haywire. |
42 | * PluckyComicRelief: Teepee is an excitable pop culture nerd, and of the three kids he's the most likely to crack jokes or suffer mishaps. |
43 | * RabbitMagician: Gilbert is an ancient 700-year-old grumpy rabbit who is training Sadie in magic. |
44 | * SecretChaser: The school principal is secretly (to everyone but Sadie and her friends) part of an MIB-style group, and is constantly trying to find proof of the various supernatural goings-on in town. |
45 | * SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Sadie and Blaine, on more than one occasion. |
46 | * SnarkyNonHumanSidekick: Gilbert is a grumpy 700 year old rabbit who is seldom impressed by his student's magical aptitude. |
47 | * TalkingAnimal: Gilbert is a talking rabbit. |
48 | * WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld: Sadie has to balance her academic life with saving the world from magical disasters. Of course, those disasters are often of her own making, but still... |
