The adventures of Wander, an eternally-optimistic intergalactic traveler and constant do-gooder, and his quick-tempered but loyal steed and best friend, Sylvia. The friendliest face in outer space, Wander journeys across the galaxies to spread good cheer and to help anyone he can — much to his overly pragmatic stallion’s chagrin. Their fun-loving escapades often lead them to clash with the evil villain Lord Hater and his army of Watchdogs, who travel from planet to planet trying to make hate the order of the day. Together, the best friends travel through the cosmos, happening upon one freewheeling adventure after another and making new friends and foes.

Trivia & behind the scenes

/
Origins

Creator Craig McCracken, previously known for The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, made Wander Over Yonder his first and only project for a Disney-owned network.

Origins

The character Wander originally appeared on sketchbooks, clothes, and patches that McCracken sold at conventions, as well as in a never-finished graphic novel, before becoming the star of the series.

Origins

McCracken described Wander as a 'nomadic, hippie, muppet man' and said his approach to each episode was character-driven, with the show's use of color influenced by his time working at Hanna-Barbera.

Casting

McCracken's wife, Lauren Faust, served as co-producer and story editor for the first season of the show.

Casting

Comic book writer ND Stevenson joined the writing team for the second season.

Filming

A sneak peek of the series was screened at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con before its official premiere.

References

An early preview of the first episode, 'The Picnic', aired on August 16, 2013, right after the premiere of Phineas and Ferb: Mission Marvel.

Reception

The previewed first episode was watched by roughly 2.9 million viewers, and the series went on to receive generally positive reviews, with The A.V. Club describing it as continuing the 'zany legacy' of Cartoon Network's 'golden age' on a competing network.
