I'm looking for a show I used to watch on SABC1's YOTv in South Africa when I was younger, called Princess Sherizon (at least I think that's what it was called. "Sherizon" could also be spelled wrong.) It was about a princess called Sherizon (she used to wear blue, I remember that), and she had a friend who was a genie and could transform into anything. This is about as much as I can remember, I'm afraid. I'm not sure whether it was a show made in South Africa or internationally, but Google searches yield nothing. I'm hoping someone can help me?

Have we ruled out Princess Jasmine? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Jasmine Jan 18 08, 5:04 PM

Erm, yeah. It was definitely something like "Sherizon," had nothing to do with Disney. Jan 19 08, 1:52 AM

Can we have a time period? I have to say that Princess Jasmine has to be based upon this character you speak of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jmn3JpQz49U Jan 19 08, 2:06 AM

I e mailed the Channel Director for SABC. Maybe we will get an answer. Jan 19 08, 2:15 AM

I'm thinking the time period would have been between about 1992 and 1998, although I wouldn't swear to that. Jan 19 08, 5:08 AM

According to IMDB, Aladdin was released in 1992. "Sherizon" may be based on "Jasmine"! Jan 19 08, 5:57 AM

She may well be, but I'm a hardened Disney fanatic, and they don't really look all that similar. Sherizon I remember was white, she had curly brown hair that was tied up, and it didn't have anything to do with Disney whatosever. I suspect it may be a South African show, hence I probably wouldn't find it on any Google searches. Thanks for all your efforts though! I'll write to our TV magazine and see whether they can remember. Jan 19 08, 6:08 AM
