Putri Duyung (2001)

This Putri Duyung (Mermaids) Indonesian TV show seems to be a sketch comedy with cartoonish skits of the characters getting up to slapstick shenanigans.

There are a couple of mermaids in this show, and the main one is Intana, played by Ayu Azhari, who falls in love with Domba, a sweet and kind-hearted man who takes care of her and introduces her to human things. The pair, or more especially Intana, becomes something like a metaphorical roadrunner who's hunted after by various nefarious Wile E. Coyote-type characters who get thwarted, often in silly ways. Intana has magical powers that she uses to protect herself and get up to mischief, and she's rarely ever in actual trouble.

Also in the show are mermaids Lolita (Uli Auliani) and Bonita (Icha Alicia) who are more knowledgeable and adventurous in exploring the human world than Intana, and use their beauty to their benefit. There's also the Mermaid Queen Dewinta (Sasha Bunyamin) and her henchman Bondana (Syarief Friant) who chase Intana for their own agenda.
