It is based on the character Pumuckl, created by children's book author Ellis Kaut.
Some differences between the first and the second season are notable e.g. Eder's carpenter's shop is now yellow on the outside and Pumuckl throws episode titles in the air.
The theme was co-created by famous South African-German musician Howard Carpendale.
Many well-known German actors such as Willy Harlander, Ilse Neubauer, Erni Singerl, Toni Berger, Wolfgang Völz and Helga Feddersen had recurring appearances.
The one-time guest appearances e.g. Lisa Fitz, Gisela Uhlen, Helmut Fischer, Barbara Valentin, Gaby Dohm, Klaus Schwarzkopf, Georg Thomalla, Wilfried Klaus, Barbara Rudnik, Iris Berben, Fredl Fesl, Karl Dall and Rolf Zacher were quite notable for a children's series.
