P. J. Sparkles

P. J. Sparkles is a 1992 animated television Produced by Mike Young Productions. The special was more-or-less an advertising vehicle for a Mattel doll, just like He man. Jodi Benson, best known for voicing Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid franchise, voiced the title character.

Movie/Plot

The P.J. Sparkles doll came with an animated movie in which a young orphan girl named P.J. living in Mrs. Omally's Orphanage rides out one night on the orphanage's withered old horse Blaze. Everytime P.J. makes a friend, they're adopted and P.J. finds herself alone again, so she goes out to wish on a star for someone to love her. P.J. soon finds herself in Twinkle Town, a small village full of namless children whom have also been wishing for a leader to love and guide them. Also, Blaze's appearance has changed and he can talk. P.J. takes on the last name Sparkles, gives the children of Twinkle Town names, and becomes their leader. However, the neighbours, The Cloak and his wife Betty are displeased with the color and bright light that P.J. has brought to the town, and try to sabotage her efforts.
