Line 7:
The Smurfs are tiny creatures, who looked human except for their blue skin and tails, and were constantly pursued by Gargamel, an impoverished sorcerer who plotted to steal the Smurfs so he could create gold (or eat them, he's [[Robot Chicken|never really been at that clear on his motivations]]). Papa Smurf, an alchemist in his own right, generally saved the day.
 
The Smurfs tended to be named according to their personality or occupation. They were all male until Gargamel created a female Smurf with black hair. After she entered the Smurfs' mushroom village, however, Papa Smurf transformed "Smurfette" into a blonde, with an appropriate change in personality. In later seasons, the Smurfs made human friends such as Johan and Peewit, and three Smurfs were irrevocably [[Fountain of Youth|rascalized]], and later created ''another'' female smurf called Sassette. (More information [http://www.smurf.com here].) They also have two wikis dedicated to them: [http://smurfs.wikia.com/wiki/Smurfs_Wiki Smurf wiki] and then there is [https://web.archive.org/web/20131031081610/http://wiki.bluebuddies.com/Main_Page another smurf wiki].
 
Although not strictly [[Merchandise-Driven]], the Smurfs were featured in just about every category of products intended for children: dolls, toys, clothing, comic books and even a breakfast cereal. Besides their Saturday morning series, the Smurfs appeared in a [[Christmas Special]] and other seasonal programs in prime time.
