The Story: Pirates, Poseidon, and Newt's Adventures
This show tells a funny story that starts 300 years ago. A pirate captain named LaPoutine and his crew (Armando, Burt, Booli, and Spewey) tried to steal a princess's crown. But they made a big mistake! They accidentally took Poseidon's underwear instead.
Poseidon is the powerful god of the sea. He was super angry about his missing underwear! To punish the pirates, he used his magic to shrink them down. Then, he trapped them inside a bottle.
Fast forward to the present day. A young boy named Newt accidentally finds the bottle. He releases the tiny pirates! Newt decides to become their new captain. Together, they go on all sorts of wild and funny adventures across the seas.
