The Smurfs: The Mystery of the Stolen Magic Flute (1992 TV special)/Tropes

The Smurfs: The Mystery of the Stolen Magic Flute is a 1992 one-hour television special written and directed by Peyo, based on his comic strips The Smurfs and Johan and Peewit. It serves as a non-canon sequel to the 1976 film The Smurfs and the Magic Flute. This feature was produced by PBS Animation in association with Hanna-Barbera Productions and Lafig S.A. and aired on both PBS and ABC on November 15, 1992.

The special was nominated for a Primetime Emmy award but lost to Rocky and Bullwinkle's Easter Extravaganza. It was taken off the air in February 2017 by Boomerang (along with the Hanna-Barbera Smurfs cartoon series), but remains to exist in its 1992 home-video edition from PBS Home Video and 2008 DVD release from Warner Home Video, as well as reruns on Fox.

Thierry Culliford, Peyo's son stated "This was one of my father's last works with Hanna-Barbera and PBS Animation. It was produced after the ninth season of the original show as a non-canon sequel to Belvision's The Smurfs and the Magic Flute."
