The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan is an animated comedy that aired on CBS.

An animated Charlie Chan takes on crime cases assisted--and sometimes hindered--by his ten children and pet Pekingese, Chu Chu. The two eldest children, Stanley and Henry, command the Chan Van, which can change into any vehicle for the occasion or situation. Stanley's catch phrase in the show is "Wham bam, we're in a jam!"

The musical numbers by the Chan Clan were supervised by Don Kirschner (of the Archies fame). The first few weeks of episodes, produced by Hanna-Barbera, were animated at H-B's Hollywood studios; the rest were animated at Eric Porter studios in Australia.
