Planet of the Apes: The Complete TV Series : 4 of 5

Way back when my bedtime was 9:00 PM, I always loved the last TV show before I had to hit the hay. I had two 8:00-9:00 favorites - the Logan's Run series, and Planet of the Apes! Now the entire Apes series is available on DVD, and I got it for Christmas. Wow, this was so much fun to watch! The overall plot plays havoc with the time line of the movies, but fans have figured out a way to reconcile the two. Each episode involves two humans and a chimp named Galen (Roddy McDowell yet again) going from town to town helping people - very Kung Fu. The makeup effects are so-so, but the cheeseball action is wonderful.
