The Anniversary Brothers Podcast: Jackie Chan Adventures Series Finale 15th Anniversary

Senior Writer Aaron Sarnecky and Senior Columnist Josh Sarnecky recently sat down to discuss Jackie Chan Adventures for the 15th anniversary of its series finale.

Jackie Chan Adventures ran for five seasons on Kids WB, from September 9, 2000 to July 8, 2005. The cartoon stars James Sie as Jackie Chan, an archeologist whose personality and fighting style is based on the famed martial artist. Throughout the show Jackie helps Captain Black (Clancy Brown) and Section 13 keep dangerous magical artifacts out of the wrong hands. Aiding Jackie is his niece Jade (Stacie Chan), his uncle (Sab Shimono), and Uncle’s apprentice, Tohru (Noah Nelson). In the series finale, Jackie and his friends must prevent the demon Drago (Michael Rosenbaum) from taking over the world.

Aaron and Josh talk about the show’s relation to the real Jackie Chan, if the series finale wraps up everything in a satisfying way, and how Saturday morning cartoons have largely disappeared.

For Josh and Aaron’s previous TV podcast, you can listen to them talk about the Lost series finale.

Jackie Chan Adventures is available on Amazon Prime Video.
