Tutenstein premiered on NBC on November 1, 2003. Tutenstein is the nickname of a 10-year-old Pharaoh named Tut-Ankh-En-Set-Amun (meaning "The Living Image of the Place of Amun") who was brought back to life after a lightning bolt hit his sarcophagus. Although dead for centuries, Tutenstein still acts like he is the ruler of the world and expects to be pampered in the manner to which he was once accustomed. Headquartered in the dusty old International Museum of World History, Tutenstein hangs out with Luxor, his faithful cat servant and advisor who is sworn to protect Tutenstein; Cleo Carter, a twelve-year-old girl who tries to keep Tutenstein's resurrection a secret after accidentally setting it in motion; Walter the museum's nervous security guard; Professor Horace Bedety, the museum's pompous archeologist; and Dr. Roxanne Vanderwheele, the professor's open-minded colleague and Cleo's mentor. One big disadvantage of Tutenstein's rebirth was that it opened up a Gate between the Underworld and the Overworld. Now the evil of Set, the ancient Egyptian god of chaos and disorder, has also awoken and covets Tutenstein's symbol of power, the Royal Scepter of Was. With it, Set plans to conquer the 21st century using a vast legion of demons.
