Shazzan is an American animated supernatural action/adventure TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera (H-B) for CBS' Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1967 to 1968, airing 18 episodes.
Off the coast of Maine, Chuck and Nancy discover two halves of an ancient ring inside a mysterious chest. When putting them together they are transported to the "fabled land of the Arabian Nights" where they meet the omnipotent genie, Shazzan, who can grant them any wishes, except for sending them back home. He can only perform that request once they return the ring to its rightful owner.
The entire series has been released on DVD.
