Tutenstein

2003–2007 · 3 seasons

A light, silly cartoon where an ancient mummy causes chaos in a modern museum, full of slapstick and easy laughs.

Overview: Tut-ankh-en-set-amun, a 3,000-year-old Egyptian mummy on display at a museum, is revived in the present day by a bolt of lightning. You'd think someone who's been dead for three millenniums would be a bit more humble after returning to life, but once an egotistical boy king, always an egotistical boy king. Now a confused blend of zombie pharaoh and Frankenstein's monster, this reanimated ruler adapts to his modern-day surroundings with the help of young friend Cleo and her talking cat, Luxor.
How it feels: Light, whimsical, absurd and warm. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Identity, friendship, family, power
Content: Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
