Pumuckls Abenteuer (Pumuckl's Adventures) is a German television series. It is based on the fictional character Pumuckl created by Ellis Kaut. It is a sequel series to 1980s TV series Meister Eder und sein Pumuckl (Master [carpenter] Eder and his Pumuckl) and the cinematic movie Pumuckl und der blaue Klabauter (Pumuckl and the blue Klabauter). Gustl Bayrhammer, who played Meister Eder in the first series, died in 1993; rather than recast his role, the producers decided to feature characters which had been introduced in the movie, making the movie sort of a pilot to this series, bridging the gap between the events of first series and this one.
