This same simple, attractive packaging was used for Felix the Cat Golden Anniversary Edition, but the George set costs half as much. The prints used for the transfer were in good condition though there were a few dirt specks here and there. His pet elephant is Shep, though George thinks he's a "big grey peanut-loving doggie", and his best friend is an ape named Ape who talks with a cultured Ronald Coleman-style voice and is much more intelligent than George.

In one of the early episodes he recovers the state of Rhode Island, which had been stolen by a super-criminal. 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.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'd feared that this would have been excised from the collection, and I'm glad they didn't, as it's one of the funniest episodes in the series. 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.

That is very unlikely, given that this is a very sophisticated technique to use in a 1960's pilot which was never meant to be seen by the public. For a comedy this is one I would have others watch, It is a very good value and the movie itself is so funny. Though "George of the Jungle" doesn't have the sly adult themes of Bullwinkle, it still has plenty of appeal, to kids as well as parents. George (Chris Showerman) and Ursula (Julie Benz) have now had a son, and the family lead a happy life together in the jungle. George, Tom Slick and Super Chicken are voiced by Bill Scott, best known as the voice of Bullwinkle, Dudley Do-Right and Mr.Creators: Bill Scott, Betty Brenon, Doris Nelson, Chris Jenkyns, Jack Mendelsohn, Jim MacGeorge, John G.

The entire 17 episode series of George of the Jungle come on two DVDs that are housed in an attractive custom case.Certain items can take longer to source than the estimated week, particularly during busy trading periods and may take longer to arrive at our warehouse. Although direct-to-video Disney sequels usually try to hide or simply ignore the issue, George of the Jungle 2 gleefully points out the lack of continuity between it and the original movie. Mild mannered millionaire Henry Cabot Henhouse III (voiced by Bill Scott) undergoes a transformation to the super-powered fighting fowl whenever he drinks his "Super Sauce". While the lack of continued adventures means that there's less satire than Bullwinkle's show the upside is that there's not a lot of time to set up the plot, so each installment really hits the ground running. Sequel to the 1997 comedy about the valiant apeman whose vine swinging skills aren't quite up to scratch.

The lead was, naturally George of the Jungle, followed by an adventure with Super Chicken, and rounded up with Tom Slick. Bigger than life, outrageously funny and loaded with eye-popping special effects, Disney's GEORGE OF THE JUNGLE is the vine-swinging, box-office smash hit that's taking audiences captive! While the men don't understand him, there's a strange attraction between George and Ursula Stanhope, a woman he meets when she's touring the jungle with a guide and her fiance, Lyle. I think they borrowed some music from Jay Ward's "Fractured Flickers" series and pasted it in these pilots to make them appear more polished. Scheming mother-in-law Beatrice Stanhope is not about to let her daughter and grandson hang around with the klutzy King of the Jungle forever.This substance is prepared by his valet, Fred, a lion (voiced by Paul Frees), and is generally drank from a martini glass.
