Little Wizards uses a familiar trope of a young prince ousted from his kingdom by an evil tyrant, and now cobbles together a band to retake the throne. Unfortunately, since this show seems to be played mostly for laughs, viewers weren't interested.
Most episodes are available in foreign languages and thus cannot be used here. Thankfully, this intro is in English.
I cannot be certain of this, but ABC may have programmed this show opposite Marvel stablemate Fraggle Rock over on NBC, and that may have had a hand in the series' demise.
No rating.

The less said about Little Clowns, the better!
Oh, it was worse, wasn't it?
Little Clowns was very heavy on the Aesops, and not in a particularly entertaining way.
You fellows have any comments on Little Wizards, though?
The show was pretty generic overall, as you mentioned. One notable aspect of the show is that one of the monsters, Gump (Not Forrest!) was voiced by Charles Adler, the man who'd go on to voice Buster Bunny.
I think Adler was working on other Marvel shows and for other studios pre-1990 as well. Have to check on that.
