George Of The Jungle [DVD]

Product Information

George (Chris Showerman) and Ursula (Julie Benz) have now had a son, and the family lead a happy life together in the jungle. The only (minor) complaints I have with this 2-DVD set is that the three 15-second trailers in the original series trumpeting the scenes from "next week's episode" could EASILY have been included here (AND the two still pictures preceding each program, advertising it "IN COLOR". I was expecting a drawn out fiasco to get some resolution but instead found instant refund with this more than fair top seller. That's what George is, a powerful brute of a man whose very limited intelligence is the source of the show's comedy.

On the digital side of things there is some minor aliasing but other compression artifacts were absent. Join dim-witted, but big-hearted George as he saves his jungle friends with the help of wife, Ursula, his friend Ape and his "dog", Shep the elephant.When George meets beautiful career woman Ursula, he is so smitten with her that he ends up leaving his jungle home and travelling to San Francisco with her, where the adventures really begin. This same simple, attractive packaging was used for Felix the Cat Golden Anniversary Edition, but the George set costs half as much.

This is a single-disc set containing the entire classic 1960's "George of the Jungle" television series (which has Super Chicken and Tom Slick within the episodes). His best friend is an ape named Ape (voiced by Paul Frees) who sounds Oxford educated, and then there's Shep, George's pet elephant who behaves like a lap dog. Replacement Chris Showerman willingly takes on all manner of humiliation at the hands of CG jungle animals and his new extended family. he didn't need to drink his Super Chicken tonic to change, Fred didn't know his secret identity, and the show's catch-phrase "You knew the job was dangerous when you took it" isn't uttered. no sticking around for special revivals (apparently, it became an immediate success and a cult classic in syndication, but from my neck of the woods, there were no such rebroadcasts, apart from a selection of only the "George" episodes and not the Super Chickens or Tom Slicks).The box says 17 episodes, but that's misleading, because you really get the full half hour shows with supporting segments Tom Slick and Super Chicken. We will introduce you exclusively to Newpay finance products provided by NewDay Limited under this Introducer Appointed Representative arrangement. I don't mind watching someone swing face first into a tree from time to time, just to stray from the norm. There, George, Ape, Shep and Tookie must rescue Ursula, and then swing back to save the jungle from Lyle's bulldozing bullies.
