    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Keye Luke, who portrays Charlie Chan in this TV show, previously co-starred as Lee Chan (Charlie's "#1 Son") in the movie series. Luke is also the only actor of Chinese descent to play Charlie since E.L. Park portrayed the character in Behind That Curtain (1929).

      Ironically, Lee was never seen or mentioned throughout the cartoon's entire run.

      Even more ironically, as portrayed by Luke, Charlie speaks whole sentences...which he rarely did in the film-serials.

    Skip this garbage.

    I saw this one quite a few times on Cartoon Network's "Boomerang" previews, and I must admit: It really sucks. If you've seen any of the great Charlie Chan movies, you will HATE this cartoon. It stars Charlie Chan (in cartoon form), who along with his kids (I think there were 10 of them plus a dog I think. I can't remember.) solved crimes that idiotic villians committed. And that basically sums it up there.

    I got to admit, this has to be one of the WORST Hanna-Barbera cartoons ever, and a slap in the face to Charlie Chan fans everywhere. If you ever see this one by accident, just change the channel. It's a waste of time. 0/10
