Zingaburia - Season 1 (2011)

Space football player Joeri Middenstipski visits the Zingaburia, voyaging behind his planets-bouncing ball, a game which delights he crew guys. yet he tricks them to swallow tranquilizers, which he passes on for a remedy for the damage it caused to the ship. Then he can go about his usual thieving round, but this team someone sneakily stayed awake and hides his beloved cuddly toy, which he constable gives different names as if to hide it's his only friend.

The crew discovers an incessant wailing aboard. It stems from excessively friendly and polite hen Katrien, who gets desperate as she fails to lay an egg, hence remains childless. The crew members devise and discuss ludicrous plans, but end up trying a psychological ruse.

The Zingaburia is invaded by the General Managing Trendy Lady, a tyrannical utter bitch, who uses a trick helmet to blackmail everyone into becoming her numbered slaves. Toon overhears she has a phobia for dogs, but fails pretending to e one. Ultimately a cute, real puppy does the trick, but also cures her phobia.

The Zingaburia's brand new autopilot breaks down. Dokter Reutelbeet answers captain Charles's call for help and successfully prescribes electronic tea. But his real goal is to take over the ship, far larger then his, and redecorate it as a private library. He uses hypnosis to turn the crew into 'legumen', who can't utter other words then vegetable names. Only spectacled captain Charles can fight back.

The Zingaburia's next, seemingly friendly visitor, youngster Milan Vandenhoek, suddenly takes control of everyone within reach by wielding a magic wand. Onky then he's recognized as Spacie's former naughty, somewhat scorned youth playmate. Then her mother Mamsiepamsie arrives, who may remember how to handle the rascal.

The spaceship's latest visitor, young Roodhelmpje, claims to be chased by a cannibal. Captain Charles accidentally lets Wolfgang Bosmans board. However he turns out to be a cultivated reporter, and his chase is not for the girl but the cake she's bringing to her grandmother. When they meet, their mood changes spectacularly.

Finally seeing a sign 'Azifrikameropa', their holiday destination, the Zingaburia stops at a suspiciously tiny planet and follows bizarre entry instructions. The gatekeeper they welcome aboard turns out not an innocent crone 'just seeking company' but the galaxy's worst criminal, Joe Crimiaffia. He hid a bomb aboard and blackmails them to hand over the spaceship or it may be blown up while he waits on the planet for their surrender. Although daunted as never before, the crew fights back.
