Wizbit is a British children's television series that ran on Children's BBC (now CBBC) from 1986 to 1988. The show, which is set in the fictional town of Puzzleopolis, featured Wizbit, an alien magician, Wooly, his rabbit friend, Paul Daniels, who owned his theater ("Paul's Playhouse"), and a villain named Professor Doom, who, along with his cat Jinx, lived in a castle that flew above Puzzleopolis.

A CGI reboot of the series was in production from 2007 to 2010, before being cancelled. The reason for this is unknown.

All that remains of this reboot are the show's opening titles and a few test animations.
