Wonderfalls is a comedy-drama television series that was broadcast on the Fox television network in 2004.
The show centres on Jaye Tyler (Caroline Dhavernas), a recent Brown University graduate with a philosophy degree, who holds a dead-end job as a sales clerk at a Niagara Falls gift shop. Jaye is the reluctant participant in conversations with various animal figurines — a wax lion, brass monkey, stuffed bear, and mounted fish, among others — which direct her via oblique instructions to help people in need.
The series was a United States/Canada co-production, filmed in Niagara Falls, Ontario and Toronto, Ontario (standing in for Niagara Falls, New York and environs), and with several Canadian actors cast in lead roles (including the show’s star).
This show is all about the witty wordplay and situational humor.
