Summary

In What If World's first mini-musical, Mama Jamma, Poppa Loo, Zack and Zizi get sent off into three different fairytales, courtesy of Jenkins, the trickster fairy. Can they learn their lessons and find their way back to each other? Lessons include: If you have something important to say, don't let yourself be silenced; be careful and use common sense in unfamiliar settings; rudeness seldom gets results. A very special thanks to Chris Kerrigan, who wrote the musical numbers for this very special episode. He writes music for grown-ups as Compassion Fatigue, and you can hear him on Apple, Spotify, and wherever you listen. This remastered classic first aired on November 13th, 2017.
