Coming on the heels of the direct-to-video sequel The Return of Jafar, the series picked up where that installment left off, with Aladdin now living in the palace, engaged to beautiful and spunky Princess Jasmine. "Al" and Jasmine went together into peril among sorcerers, monsters, thieves, and more. Monkey sidekick Abu, the animated Magic Carpet, and the fast-talking, shape-shifting Genie came along to help, as did sassy, complaining parrot Iago, formerly Jafar’s pet but now an antihero.
A kind-hearted street urchin named Aladdin vies for the love of the beautiful Princess Jasmine. He stumbles upon a magical lamp containing a genie that grants him three wishes. Aladdin must now learn to harness the genie's power to win the princess's heart and defeat the evil sorcerer Jafar, who seeks to rule the kingdom.
