Aladdin is an action/adventure cartoon based on the movie, taking place just after Return of Jafar. It still takes place in Agrabah, but now instead of one or two villains, there are countless bad guys. The good guys are still the same, Aladdin, Jasmine, Genie, Abu, Carpet, and Iago. The bad guys usually only appear once or twice, and there are so many, it'd take forever to name them all. I find that they're usually just huge, ugly, monsters. Aladdin is still the roguish, energetic scamp as in the movie, and Jasmine is still an adventurous princess, who's about as good as Aladdin in a fight. Genie is still a goofy genie who zaps up either something from the future, or something really useless. Abu is still a mischievous monkey who has kept up the habit of lifting fruit and picking pockets, Iago is still a greedy parrot who watches out mostly for himself, and Carpet is still a loyal rug who follows Aladdin everywhere.
The tv rating is the usual Y, and that's for the violence, and Abu's language. I'm not sure if they had it corrected in the show, but in the movies, Abu cusses his mouth off. They violence in this program are a lot different then most action/adventure shows, because their main intention isn't to kill, maim or destroy. For instance, they don't just walk into the bad guy's hideout and blow it and everything around it to little bits, at least not on purpose. Another thing that sets Aladdin apart from the other shows is that one of the main parts of the episodes are friendship. If parents haven't seen the movie, I suggest they stay for at least three episodes before deciding if their kids should make a habit of watching it. Just because it's a show made by Disney, it doesn't mean you can just assume it's clean. Kids under six or seven or should be a careful about it, because the bad guys are usually meant to look really scary, and it's the kind show where parents are deceived by the maker, just thinking that anything made by Disney everyone can safely watch.
