'''''The Legend of Zelda''''' is an animated television series chronicling the adventures of [[Link]], [[zeldawiki:Princess Zelda|Princess Zelda]], and [[zeldawiki:Ganon|Ganon]] in [[zeldawiki:Hyrule|Hyrule]]. The show is based on the games ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda|The Legend of Zelda]]'' and ''[[zeldawiki:Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''. It lasted for only 13 episodes and was part of the same syndication package as ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' As with cartoons of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]], it was produced by [[DIC Entertainment|DiC Entertainment]].
'''''{{wp|The Legend of Zelda (TV series)|The Legend of Zelda}}''''' was a short-lived animated television series chronicling the adventures of [[Link]], [[Princess Zelda]] and [[Ganon]] in Hyrule, which was based off the first two [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' games]] for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]]. While the series is unrelated to the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]], it was part of the same syndication package as the  ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' and, as with the ''Mario'' cartoons, was produced by [[DIC Entertainment|DiC Entertainment]].


While ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' was broadcast five days a week, cartoons of the ''Super Mario'' franchise aired only from Monday to Thursday, with ''The Legend of Zelda'' airing instead on Friday, though it was still accompanied by live-action segments featuring [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. Some of these segments were included as part of ''The Legend of Zelda''{{'}}s later DVD release because Mario, Luigi, and/or the guest star would speak out to the audience to promote that week's episode of ''The Legend of Zelda'', showing a preview consisting of scenes from the upcoming episode.

''The Legend of Zelda'', still accompanied by live-action segments with [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], aired on Friday. Some of these segments were included as part of ''The Legend of Zelda'''s later DVD release because Mario, Luigi, and/or the guest star would speak out to the audience to promote that week's ''The Legend of Zelda'' episode, showing a preview consisting of scenes from the upcoming episode.


''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' and ''The Legend of Zelda'' would sometimes reference each other. The episode "[[Stars in Their Eyes]]" of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' has aliens known as the [[Quirk (species)|Quirks]] playing the theme song of ''The Legend of Zelda'' on their trumpet-like noses near the episode's end; similarly, the episode "[[zeldawiki:Doppelganger|Doppelganger]]" of ''The Legend of Zelda'' depicts Link whistling the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' while practicing with his sword. Additionally, Mario states in ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' that ''The Legend of Zelda'' is [[Mama Mario]]'s favorite show. Both shows also use the ending song "[[Do the Mario]]" for the credits.
As the characters in the live-action segments are aware of the ''The Legend of Zelda'' cartoon, the animated series itself actually exists in the overall ''Mario'' series.


''The Legend of Zelda'' was one of four [[Nintendo]]-based cartoons included in the compilation television series ''[[Captain N & The Video Game Masters]]''; however, when episodes of ''The Legend of Zelda'' were aired, they were sped up and cut significantly to around ten minutes. As of 2014, the series has been made available for streaming on {{wp|WildBrain}}'s Cartoon Super Heroes, Vault, and ''Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' channels, though the live-action segments are not included by the channel.
As of 2014, the series has been made available for streaming on {{wp|WildBrain}}'s {{wp|YouTube}} Channel "WildBrain - Cartoon Super Heroes", though the live action segments have yet to be included by the channel.
