    I was a ten-year-old PotA fanatic when the series originally aired, and I watched every episode that I could at the time. It was great to get the DVD set as an adult and see it all again. (I had all of the MEGO action figures, too -- well, except the astronaut, because I was only interested in the apes.)

    I just finished watching this video.
    I do remember watching this cartoon, yeah as if you could really label it as a kids show.
    LOL, your comment yeah Space:1999 I'm looking at you.
    In my area, 1999 was on Saturday afternoons at 1:00 so Saturdays about mid-morning on I was a happy youngster with all of these shows.
    thanks for bringing back the memories of this one!

    What made me a fan of this was the comic book style animation,marvel had a comic book around the same time and it felt like the pages came alive to me when I watched this show

    I remember watching this back in 1975. Loved it then and still do today. It's more faithful to the original novel than the movie series. If you did a little more research, you would have discovered the ratings were good enough to have a 2nd season. But NBC pulled the plug. The 2nd season would have wrapped up the series too. It was ONLY going to be like 4 episodes for some reason.

    Hey emperordalek, I can't believe I missed this one! Anyhow, another smashing episode. I concede to many points in this show's flaws, yet I find the politics to be quite intriguing. Especially for the time it was made, and that it was a children's show. But then again, after re-reading the novel for the first time in 20 years, even the book has some of it's flaws. Like how the apes use hypnosis to dig up the memories of humans to learn of the backstory behind the novel's universe, that had me asking how humans could have memories from 10,000 year ago. Why not just have Cornelius find the planet's history in an ancient tape recorder?! Anyways, great stuff!

    so, the doomsday bomb from BTPOTA didn't destroy the Earth but instead filled it's h2o supply w/ambien. O_o I got it.
    thanks for another fun nostalgia-blast! I don't know how I missed this show as a kid, either, as I loved the movies.
    I totally got a cowboy bebop vibe off those opening credits w/their saul bass style.

    Why make this cartoon? Because that was the trend in the 70s at that time. Extremely popular IPs that still had value but were suffering from diminishing $ returns were sometimes converted into cartoons. It was a magical time.

    That cartoon was depressing. Dead serious and little hope of a happy ending. Plus the "Mangler" voice actor (not the original Alan Reed Fred) from Flintstones played General Urko.

      In other words, entirely faithful to the source material, then? 😃

    Watching this as a 12 year old back in '75, I viewed this series as a kind of alternative ending to "Beneath the Planet of the Apes"
    The Alpha Omega bomb was a dud (best before 3000AD obviously) and didn't go off.
    Ursus and Nova were only wounded.
    The apes plundered the ruined city for remnants of any technology they could back-engineer to build themselves army trucks, jeeps and fuzzy 1960s TV sets while remodelling their civilization to look like 1970s America, just to rub the surviving human's noses in it.
    Krador and the Underdwellers were a completely separate mutant society, who weren't on speaking terms with Mendez and his bomb cult, and were highly amused when the creepy beggars got wiped out.
    Of course, I was only 12...😁

    Great job with the video; informative, well edited and made chuckle repeatedly. Hope you do one on the TV series (even on the UK Marvel 1970's comic series that had the liscened Planet of the Apes but with ape cyborgs on the moon and maybe even vampires?). I knew of this TV series at the time because of its comic book TV guide-ish page but for whatever reason never saw it until as an adult. I think I'd have appreciated more back then, but it does have a charm, in a Turkish-ripoff movie kind of a way. And when the arts good, its very good. Wish they'd given it a go as stand alone aimated TV movies instead. With that extra time between them I think tehy'd have had enough polish to have become icon.

    I liked it, but I also like the live action TV series that only won 14 weeks but I was the audience for this show my age range growing up watching the movies in the movies with my dad and then the TV show came on and then the animated series, so I went through it all
