A mermaid princess makes a Faustian bargain in an attempt to become human and win a prince's love.
Disney's The Little Mermaid is an American animated television series produced by Walt Disney Television Animation based on the 1989 Disney film of the same name. It features the adventures of Ariel as a mermaid prior to the events of the film.
Ariel and Eric must hide their precious daughter Melody's mermaid heritage to protect her from Ursula's vengeful sister, Morgana. But when the lure of the sea proves too strong for Melody, they call upon King Triton, plus all the good creatures on land and under the waves, to help rescue their daughter and restore harmony to the seas.
In the kingdom of Atlantica where music is forbidden, the youngest daughter of King Triton, named Ariel, discovers her love of an underground music club and sets off to a daring adventure to bring restoration of music back to Atlantica.
The youngest of King Triton’s daughters, and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea, and while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. With mermaids forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land, but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy.
