The first time i saw the smurfs was at a discussion forum. WE were talking about propaganda, and the best way to get a given (Political) idea out to kids.
The speaker presented a french cartoon about a german 'folk' story called 'johan and the quest of the magical flute'. You guessed it, it was all about the smurfs. For those of you who might not know it, the magic flute is a masonic parable. (Same thing goes for the opera of the same name.)
I don't know how they made the leap to prime time, but i do know the magic flute thing preceded them by almost 10 years.
