Jumanji is an animated television series that was based on the movie of the same name. Jumanji ran for three seasons from 1996-1999. In 1996, it was carried by the UPN network, but later seasons were syndicated by BKN. The series was also shown by CITV in the United Kingdom. Jumanji was produced by Adelaide Productions,with character designs by Everett Peck.
While it followed the movie's plot, there were a few changes such as the exclusion of Bonnie Hunt's character Sarah, and the age and relationship of the David Alan Grier character was changed somewhat. Each turn the player was given a "game clue" and then sucked into the jungle until they solved their clue, and Robin Williams' character, Alan, was stuck in Jumanji because he had never seen his clue, which was mostly the driving force behind the series as he, with the help of Peter and Judy, tried to find various way to get himself out of the game. Also, Peter would sometimes be transformed into various animals.
