The World of David the Gnome - Episode 09 - The Kingdom of the Elves (Restored)

The episode starts out with David telling how gnomes make pottery and candles. When he goes outside, another gnome tells him that a little deer has a barbed wire around his neck and needs help. David calls for Swift, but Swift doesn't come. He finds the fox a few feet away, but he is sick from eating poisoned food, a trap set by the trolls. David gives Swift some medicine and makes him better. Next David goes and cuts the wire from the deer's neck. On the way back, David decides to go see Gustav, the king of the elves to help get revenge on the trolls. Gustav sends some of his little elf messengers to the lake and Swift lures the trolls there, by lying down and pretending to be dead. Once the trolls show up, the elves tease them, drag them through the water, and tie their tails together. David reminds the elves not to hurt the trolls, just tease them.

I like how David tells the elves/fairies to stop when he believes the trolls have learned their lesson. The fairies don't want to because they were having fun but David knows when enough is enough. He feels they're even now for what trolls did to the animals.

[@Bandersnatch41]

I love how in a earlier episode David said there's no such thing as fairies and elves .

[@samanthadean1083]

He never said that pixies didn't exist! #loophole lol

[@kacmac2340]

Probably Creators made this cartoon for lovers of fantasy Creatures and they wanted apologize them and cheer up.

[@zarachastellaris9016]

He just said he'd never seen them!

[@rippingtons60]

@@zarachastellaris9016 Indeed, episode 7 showed us but not David that witched also exist.

[@mkehammond7277]

Or Witches.

[@janiedoe1542]

Those Elves and Fairies are just so beautiful and lovely too.

I’m on a nostalgia binge starring my favorite cartoon, David the Gnome!

[@DreamDancer82]

I get that way a lot, especially when I'm feeling stressed or depressed. Sometimes, revisiting a childhood cartoon you haven't seen in years brings back memories of happier times.

[@moonrose1929]

I love this show! I watched it as a child it brings back such fond memories especially the song's. 💚💜❤💛

[@user-ln6pu7kq9j]

I love how 100 is considered youthful. So cute!

[@DreamDancer82]

Well, considering how old gnomes live, yeah 100 would be considered youthful.

[@talonshadowhawk8419]

I vaguely remember this series from babysitting for a friend 25yrs ago. I'd get her son and mine to watch the show and afterwards the boys would use me like a jungle gym and climb all over me...fun times! I think I checked out the book this series is adapted from when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade. Don't remember much about the book other than color sketches of the interior of a Gnome home looks like.

[@Doctor-Stoppage]

[@mkehammond7277]

RIP Tom Bosley

In the original Spanish version, what the trolls did to Swift was a lot more sinister. Trolls often poison rats with sap from the yew plant and leave them where other animals can eat the rats. That thing David pulled out of Swift's mouth is a rat tail. I always thought it was a stem from a poisonous plant until I saw the original ep. David's medicine also made Swift throw up. Look up any of the European versions. This scene wouldn't have flown well on Nick Jr, thus it was changed.

[@DreamDancer82]

I've found out that European audiences aren't as uptight about children's entertainment as American audiences are, which is why they're edited. However, this is something my sister has told me, so don't quote me on this.

[@nobody-nn5tb]

Holy s!#! I completely forgot about the trolls. 😱😱

I love how the fairies idea of a prank is waterboarding the trolls lol

[@KuragariNoKaze]

Willy the Gnome ate some funny mushrooms. haha

[@skeetman22]

I wanna hear David tell someone to “sit on it”

[@heavenlysheephugshuggingfo1505]

a true master piece

[@alanodonnel9063]

Those Troll's are bought rotten and descustion. And if I captured them I can sell them to the government and make a fortune out of them. And David won't have anymore trouble from them ever again.

[@kacmac2340]

Not every trolls are bad! I don't think, thats a good idea. Too brutal for me.

[@FreddyFernandoGonzalez1987]

Pixies are so cute 🥰

[@dancepiglover]

The trolls may be bad, but the near drowning of them gave me anxiety. 😨

[@DaryckReese300]

Those Little Elves, Just Have A Pair of Wings and They Have No Clothes.

[@MrOrthopedia]

Miramar films and Cinar were responsible for the US version of the series. BRB International were the original creators, and I believe they were located in Spain.
