Jackie Chan Adventures

Archaeologist Jackie Chan joins forces with his adventurous 11-year-old niece, Jade, to race around the world in search of twelve powerful magical talismans before they fall into the hands of the sinister Dark Hand crime syndicate. Along the way, they're aided by Uncle, Jackie's eccentric yet brilliant uncle, whose ancient knowledge and mystical expertise often prove to be the key to defeating dark forces.

Jackie Chan Adventures (2000-2005) is an American animated action comedy series created by John Rogers for The WB. Archaeologist Jackie Chan (voiced by James Sie) teams up with his energetic eleven-year-old niece Jade (voiced by Stacie Chan) and their eccentric, brilliant Uncle (voiced by Sab Shimono), whose ancient mystical knowledge often decides the fight. Together they travel around the world chasing twelve powerful magical talismans before the sinister Dark Hand crime syndicate can seize them. Each episode blends slapstick comedy with martial arts set pieces, folklore-inspired villains, and globe-trotting locations drawn from Asian legend and archaeology. The five-season run is a serialized quest with recurring antagonists and a steady build toward the artifacts, yet most episodes stand on their own. The tone is playful, warm and family-friendly, with a mentor-guided bond at its heart and the kind of buoyant adventure fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Samurai Jack will find appealing. Its rating keeps violence cartoonish and light, making it an easy pick for families watching together.

Viewers broadly rate the animated martial arts adventure as a fun, well-crafted family series with consistently strong audience ratings across its run.
