## Characters
### Main

* Dez (voiced by Deven Mack): An awkward and reserved teenage leprechaun boy. He has the ability to grant wishes by firing a rainbow from his finger. However, wishes he grants always go wrong in some fashion, forcing him and his friends to fix it.
* Puffin (voiced by Sergio Di Zio): A talking puffin who shares Dez's apartment. Although he is greedy, lazy, and self-centered, he is a very supportive friend towards Dez, who had granted him the ability to speak with one of his wishes.
* Akiko (voiced by Stephany Seki): A mischievous and sarcastic yūrei who haunts Dez's apartment. She is an eternal teenager who died centuries ago from a plague that wiped out her whole village. She is nicknamed "Keeks" by her friends.

### Recurring

* Tsuni (voiced by Jordan Todosey): A laid-back mermaid who rides on a skateboard and Dez's love interest. She has darker skin than Dez and has a collapsible trident in her backpack. She works at a magical comic book store, where Dez and his friends hang out.
* Fireball Cat (voiced by Martin Roach): A mystical anthropomorphic cat named for the fire that burns on his head. He is the owner of a noodle soup restaurant frequented by Dez, his friends, and many other characters. He possesses near-omnipotent magical powers and knowledge, notably the ability to use his own mouth for scrying.
* The King of the Underworld (voiced by Brian Drummond): A giant angry demon who rules the Underworld. He is the occasional nemesis of Dez and his friends.
* Phil (voiced by Blair Williams): Dez's bitter, cynical, and greedy leprechaun uncle.
* Neptune (voiced by Christian Potenza): The God of the Sea, who behaves like an egotistical "surfer dude".
* Howie (voiced by Doug Hadders): A centaur who works in the postal service.
* Samuel (voiced by Doug Hadders): A yeti smothered in ice cream. He had wished for endless ice cream from Dez long ago, but soon came to regret the wish due to having to live with permanent brain freeze, sticky fingers, and lactose intolerance.
* Clooney (voiced by Craig Warnock): Dez's leprechaun dad.
* Emer (voiced by Kathy Laskey): Dez's leprechaun mom.
* Finnuala (voiced by Samantha Weinstein): Dez's nemesis. She is a leprechaun enforcer, working at her father's leprechaun reprogramming facility to ensure that all leprechauns are behaving as stereotypically expected of their kind.
* Leslie Walderamma (voiced by Darren Frost): An obnoxious wizard boy.
* Dusty (voiced by Evany Rosen): A witch who takes offense at people making assumptions about her.
* Gum King (voiced by Juan Chioran): Akiko's nemesis and self-proclaimed ruler of all gum. A humanoid creature composed entirely out of gum who came to be after another one of Dez's wishes backfired. When not antagonizing Akiko, he is an employee of De-Gum Chums, a business that specializes in removing gum.
* G (voiced by Jeff Lumby): A gargoyle who works as the security guard for Dez's apartment.
* Janice (voiced by Julie Lemieux): The two-faced Goddess of Thresholds. She is the doorperson of Dez's apartment.

## Production

The series' title is a pun on the phrase "brain fart", applying the term instead to wishes. The series' creators came up with Wishfart during a lunchtime conversation when Dan Williams pitched an idea for a live-action series about a rich man in green who used his wealth to make people's wishes come true. The idea was soon developed into a children's animated series about a non-traditional leprechaun. The creators had little experience with animation, but managed to successfully pitch their idea directly to Teletoon without any sample artwork, thanks to the support of international distributor and producing partner, Tatiana Kober.
The first season was produced for $7.4 million US. Slap Happy Cartoons did the character designs, with the creators' aim being rounded shapes and thin outlines.

| Bored with Leprechaun Day, Dez wishes he wasn't a leprechaun. And it comes true. He's not a leprechaun. And neither are his parents. Dez is upset because he didn't really mean it, but he's devastated when he learns that ALL MAGIC is gone! With Tsuni swimming in the canal, and Fireball Cat acting like "just a cat", Dez has to figure out how to return magic to the world. The solution lies in a four leaf clover and the very complicated, non-magical plan to retrieve it. ||||||

## Reception

The series received five nominations at the 2019 Canadian Screen Awards in the categories of Best Direction (Animation), Best Sound (Animation), and Best Writing (Animation), with three of those nominations being in the last category. It was also nominated for an Award of Excellence for Best Program (Animation – Ages 9+) from the Youth Media Alliance in 2019, and won the Writers Guild of Canada's Screenwriting Award in the Children's category that same year.
Chris Robinson of Cartoon Brew gave the series a positive review, describing it as "a beautifully conceived, designed, and written work subtly loaded with positive messages about diversity, the chaos of youth, materialism, identity, and self-control/reliance" and remarking how the show stood in contrast with the "loud and boorish" nature of most animated TV shows.
