Picking up after the events of the first film and The Return of Jafar , the animated series expanded the world of Agrabah. It introduced new villains like the sorcerer Mozenrath and the mechanical genius Mekanikos, while keeping the core chemistry of Aladdin, Jasmine, Genie, Abu, and Iago intact. For Indian viewers, this show was a staple of weekend morning television throughout the late 90s and early 2000s.
