Opus 'n' Bill in A Wish for Wings that Work is a 1991 American animated special based on the A Wish for Wings That Work children's book written by Berkeley Breathed that aired on CBS on December 18, 1991. It was produced by Amblin Television for Universal Cartoon Studios.
Wrestling with an unfulfilled wish to soar through the air like any other self-respecting bird, Opus, a plucky penguin, decides there's only one person who can make his aeronautic dream come true: Father Christmas. Bill the Cat coughs up a wild idea that just may bring a holiday miracle, but when ol' St. Nick finds himself in hot water on December 24th, the fate of Christmas itself suddenly depends on the kind of heroism that only comes in a penguin-sized package! Will Opus come to the rescue and learn the value of being true to oneself?
