Stitch & Ai

Stitch & Ai (安玲与史迪奇 "An Ling and Stitch") is a television series spin-off of Lilo & Stitch produced for Chinese audiences that premiered on March 27, 2017 on CCTV-1 and CCTV-14. It is the Lilo & Stitch franchise's third TV series, after the Western-animated Lilo & Stitch: The Series and the anime Stitch!.

The series was produced in English before being dubbed in Mandarin for Chinese broadcast, as the show was produced with the assistance of American animators, including those who previously worked on Lilo & Stitch The Series. The original English version began airing on Disney Channel Asia on February 5, 2018.[1]  On December 1, 2018, it was given a digital release in Western countries on the DisneyNow website and app, with the exception of the ninth episode "The Phoenix".

Premise
Stitch & Ai follows the events of Lilo & Stitch (and its subsequent film and television sequels up to and including Leroy & Stitch).[2]

This series sees Stitch separated from Lilo after being captured by a gang of space criminals who had hoped to replicate Jumba's research. When Stitch escapes, he ends up re-entering Earth's atmosphere over China and ends up landing in the Huangshan Mountains where he befriends a young girl named Wang Ai Ling and becomes part of her family. Jumba and Pleakley also show up to keep a watch on Stitch and to help out him and his new family. However, Jumba becomes concerned with a hidden function that he secretly programmed in Stitch—a function that causes him to grow into a giant beast when his destructive programming is triggered in a large city—could be unleashed if the space criminals figure out how to manipulate Stitch into triggering it.
