Kulderzipken
television series
Kulderzipken is a Flemish television series that premiered in 1995. Two seasons of ten episodes each have been made since then. The final episode aired in 1996.
Concept
Once upon a time there was, in country far, far, far away, a king called Jozef (Jan Decleir), and his wife, queen Angina (Karine Tanghe). King Jozef thought the time was right for his daughter, princess Prieeltje (Ianka Fleerackers), to get married and king Jozef set up a special contest. The first young man to pull the three golden hairs out of Mother Devil's head got the chance to marry the princess.
The contest was won by Kulderzipken (Michael Pas), a simple country lad. Both Prieeltje and her mother are very happy with the outcome, but King Jozef does not want a country lad as his son-in-law, and tries to chase Kulderzipken from his castle. King Jozef gets help from Mother Devil (Veerle Eyckermans), who wanted her son the devil (Frans Van der Aa) to win the contest instead.
Every episode, Kulderzipken has to fulfill a special quest.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Kulderzipken” as television series. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as television series. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 7, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q1985186. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1995 and 1996.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
