Wish Kid

Wish Kid was an animated television series that originally aired on NBC. The premise of the show was that Macaulay's character Nicholas McClary (Nick for short) owned a baseball glove that had been hit by a small shooting star. When punched three times it allowed him wish for anything. However, the power was very limited as Nick could only wish for something once a week (a rather sly nod to its weekly Saturday airings). Also, the wishes would cancel after after a certain about of time which would serve as the conflicts Nick gets into, forcing him to solve it.
