***Aladdin*** is an American animated television series produced by Walt Disney Television Animation that aired from February 6, 1994 to November 25, 1995, concluding exactly three years to the day from the release of the original 1992 Disney film of the same name on which it was based.[1] Despite the animated television series premiering four months before the first movie sequel *The Return of Jafar*, it takes place afterward.[2] The second and final animated movie sequel was the 1996 direct-to-video film, *Aladdin and the King of Thieves*.

The TV series was produced by Alan Zaslove and Tad Stones, who were already renowned for their work on *Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers* and *Darkwing Duck*.[3] Many of the films' stars provided the voices of their TV counterparts, with the notable exceptions of Dan Castellaneta filling in for Robin Williams in The Genie role (like in *The Return of Jafar*), and Val Bettin as the Sultan (who replaced Douglas Seale after the original film).

The TV series originally aired as a preview on The Disney Channel in early 1994,[4] and in September of that year it began airing concurrently on the syndicated The Disney Afternoon block[3] and on Saturday mornings on CBS (prior to Disney's purchase of rival ABC). Disney Channel reran the series from 1997 until 2000. The show was shown on Toon Disney from April 1998 until December 2008.

### Main[edit]

* Aladdin (voiced by Scott Weinger): He was originally a street urchin who stole food to survive, but his life changed when he met and fell in love with Jasmine, the Princess of Agrabah. Aladdin is engaged to marry Jasmine and will eventually become Prince and eventually Sultan. He learns of his future responsibilities while protecting the kingdom from monsters, sorcerers and other dangers.
* Princess Jasmine (voiced by Linda Larkin): She was forced by her father to marry a prince, but her life changed for the better when she ran away from home and met the man of her dreams, Aladdin. Jasmine is no ordinary princess as she is strong-willed and wants to live a life where she is free to make her own choices and to not let others control her. Now with more independence, Jasmine starts to experience things that she had never done before.
* Genie (voiced by Dan Castellaneta): One of Aladdin's best friends. Freed from his lamp and able to use his magic freely, Genie helps Aladdin in his adventures to protect Agrabah. However, Genie's magic does not always work successfully, as his powers had been reduced once he was freed. He describes his powers as "semi-phenomenal, nearly cosmic".
* Iago (voiced by Gilbert Gottfried): Though he may have cleaned up his act, Iago is still very greedy and constantly wishes to have riches and power in his life. Iago inadvertently causes trouble for the gang as he leads them on treasure hunts that turn out to be dangerous. Though he may be bad tempered, Iago is a good person deep down and always does the right thing in the end. Iago also has the talent of being able to imitate other peoples' voices.
* The Sultan (voiced by Val Bettin): Jasmine's kind-hearted father, ruler of Agrabah, who allowed the engagement between her and Aladdin.
* Abu (voiced by Frank Welker): The charming, mischievous, yet closest friend of Aladdin. Abu is known to be a master thief and has his eyes set on gold and jewels. Abu and Iago have become good friends and work together on many occasions to gain money and riches beyond their wildest dreams.
* Magic Carpet: A loyal friend who was once a resident of the Cave of Wonders' treasure room. He is the mode of transportation for Aladdin and his friends, as well as a constant games partner for Genie.
