Production notes
From the people who brought you the Care Bears and the Popples, Lady Lovelylocks and the Pixietails was another attempt to turn adorable greeting card characters into a hit cartoon series.
As the title suggested, the entire theme of Lady Lovelylocks was hair. All the characters had a nice head of hair (including the trees), good and evil were determined by hair color, and one's station in society was determined by how manageable one's locks were. Chief among the well-coifed beauties was blonde Lady Lovelylocks, the kindhearted ruler of the Land of Lovelylocks.
At the other end of the hair spectrum was the dark-locked Duchess Ravenwaves, who connived to take over the kingdom with the help of her furball lackeys Snags, Hairball and Tanglet.The Lady's main assistants were Lady Curleycrown (a redhead) and Maiden Fairhair (a brunette), and the darling Pixietails?flying bunny rabbits with names like Pixieshine and Pixiesparkle?also lent a helping paw. Wizard Shining Glory, one of the show's few male characters, narrated the stories, while Prince Strongheart spent most of his time cursed as a dog.
Despite the fabulous hairdos and a wide range of dolls and accessories, Lady Lovelylocks and the Pixietales was only on the air for one year, failing to become a "permanent" fixture on daytime TV.

Lady Lovelylocks - The Keeper Synopsis and Comments
A mother dragon and her three babies have come to live in Lovelylocks Castle, as outlined in previous episodes. One day everyone is hanging out on the lawn, and a man (whose name escapes me) drives up in a wagon and says that he owns the mother dragon. Later, he even produces a certificate of ownership in front of Lady Lovelylocks as proof. So, he takes the mother dragon with him, much to the grief of the Lovelylocks gang. The guy also makes the dragon wear an obedience collar so she will obey his commands.
The Duchess finds out about this, and she and Hairball pose as country people and place an enchantment on the guy while he is driving his wagon away with the dragon in tow. Then Ravenwaves gets up on the dragon and flies her over Lovelylocks Castle so that she can press the button on the obedience collar and get the dragon to attack the castle. Shining Glory puts up a shield to ward off the fire the dragon is aiming toward the castle. Then the three dragon babies thwart the mom, somehow making the collar come off her. The mother dragon clumsily lands, and Ravenwaves gets foiled.
I forgot to tell you that as soon as the owner of the mother dragon comes out of his enchantment, he finds out what is going on and becomes (I kid you not) Lizard Man and flies up into the air. This is when I seriously began to wonder what the creators of the cartoon were thinking. Lizard Man was only a human in disguise so he wouldn't scare people. He helps in foiling Ravenwaves, but I forgot how.
Anyway, he decides that the mother dragon should stay with her babies and her friends in Lovelylocks Land.
