' WinneToons ' is a 26-part German cartoon series that is loosely based on characters from the novel Winnetou 1st part by Karl May.
The individual completed episodes depict child-friendly adventure stories, without explicit depictions of violence or bloody scenes, from the time of the characters Winnetou and Old Shatterhand between their blood brotherhood and the murder of Winnetou's father Intschu Tschuna and his sister Nschotschi.
Many other people from the Karl May universe accompany her on her adventures, such as Hobble Frank, Aunt Droll, and Sam Hawkens.
Curiosity: As in the Karl May films (played by Lex Barker ), Old Shatterhand does not wear a cowboy hat in this series either.
The title melody is a modification of "Ride the Hurricane's Eye" by the Rednex group.
