'''''The Legend of Zelda''''' was a short-lived television series chronicling the adventures of [[Link]], [[Zelda|Princess Zelda]] and [[Ganondorf|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, ''Mario'' cartoons only aired from Monday through Thursday. ''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.
 
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.
 
As of 2014, the series has been made available for streaming on [[wikipedia:WildBrain|WildBrain]]'s [[wikipedia:YouTube|YouTube]] Channel "WildBrain - Cartoon Super Heroes", though the live action segments have yet to be included by the channel.

*The episode "[[Stars in Their Eyes]]" of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' has aliens known as the [[Quirk (species)|Quirks]] singing the theme song of ''The Legend of Zelda'' near the episode's end. Similarly, ''The Legend of Zelda'' episode "[[zeldawiki:Doppelganger|Doppelganger]]" depicts Link whistling the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' theme while practicing with his sword.
*According to Mario, ''The Legend of Zelda'' is [[Mama Mario]]'s favorite show.
*Both this and ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' have the "[[Do the Mario]]" theme song for the credits. However, in the Cartoon Network UK version of the show, it had its own lyrical theme song.{{ref needed}}
