The
animated series was the last work relating to the
Apes saga produced. It was produced after the
live action TV series and aired in 1975 as a
Saturday morning cartoon for 13 episodes. The
storyline was continuous and built on previous
episodes.
The show is set in the year 3979 after the
first and second Apes movies.Familiar characters
from the first and second Apes movie including
female Nova, Cornelius, Zira and Dr Zaius inhabit
this world as does General Urko from the live
action Apes TV series.
The cartoon takes a different approach to the
Apes concept as in this show, Apes have
automobiles, TV, and even make use of a repaired
fighter airplane. Human astronauts from the past
crash and lead human survivors to safety after
extermination is deemed their future by Ape
Council.
Frequent references to American culture abound
throughout the shows brief run. The Apefather is
a favorite movie and humans underground wait for
"USA" the one who will lead them to
salvation.
