10 Fan Theories That Put Interesting Spins On Your Favourite '80s Cartoons

6. Why The Wuzzles Couldn't Fly

There are actually two theories about this, but the fact is the Wuzzles in the 1980s cartoon couldn't fly, even though the Wuzzles in the picture books could.

The first theory states that the Wuzzles in the cartoon lived in a future in which they had become overly reliant on modern forms of transport - cars, trains and aeroplanes etc - and as such had either evolved into beings who couldn't fly (in spite of their wings) or they had simply forgotten how to.

The second theory is that there was probably little to no communication at all between the different groups of people working on all the different Wuzzle products. It also suggests that there was little to no quality control on what was being put out, and certainly no attention paid to blatant contradictions like this one.

Both pretty depressing, really.
