'''''[[Mission Magic|Mission: Magic!]]''''' is a [[Fantasy]] [[Animated Series]] from [[Filmation]] that ran from 1973 to 1975 on [[ABC]]. Like the better known ''[[The Magic School Bus]]'', it featured a magical teacher, [[A Worldwide Punomenon|Miss Tickle]], who would take her "Adventurers' Club" group of six [[Five-Token Band|multi-ethnic students]] (consisting of [[The Chick|the blonde Carol]], the [[Uncle Tomfoolery|African American male]] Franklin, the [[Twofer Token Minority|Asian female]] Kim, the [[Fat Bastard|fat]], [[Deadpan Snarker|sardonic]] Harvey, the [[Cloudcuckoolander]] Socks, and the [[Malaproper]] Vinnie) through a portal in a magical blackboard, which she would open by bringing to life the statuette of her cat, Tut-tut, with the chant:

=== Tropes Employed In ''[[Mission Magic|Mission: Magic!]]'': ===
* [[Aesop]]: Every episode would feature some moral lesson (''e.g.'' "Modran" was about the evils of cheating).
* [[Ancient Egypt]]: Not only do Ptolemy and Tut-tut have Ancient Egyptian names, but one episode, "Nephren," featured an ancient Egyptian sorceress-queen matching magic with Miss Tickle.
