Wonderful show!
What's the Story?
FAIRLY ODDPARENTS: A NEW WISH follows 10-year-old Hazel Wells (Ashleigh Crystal Hairston), who's recently moved to Dimmadelphia with her parents after her beloved brother left for college. With her brother's absence, a new environment, and a new school, Hazel struggles to adapt. When Cosmo and Wanda (Daran Norris and Susanne Blakeslee), the retired couple across the hall, come to welcome her family, Hazel finds them very…odd. After a rough first day of school, she hears that her brother can't visit until winter break, which is too long of a wait. Hazel decides to run away, which stresses Cosmo and Wanda out so much they come out of retirement as fairies to help. They propose an arrangement: for Hazel to be their godchild, and for them to become her new Fairy Godparents.
