JADE-EPISODE020

HEY its Saturday morning, and during the month of September Jeff is doing a special series of programs about the "Golden Age of Saturday Morning Cartoons". Many of these Catoons and Live Action shows that we grew up with are finding their way to DVD. This week Jeff takes a look at one of his favorite live action shows from Saturday morning called "ARK II". Ark II was on the air during the 1976-1977 season, and later in snydication around 1979-1980. The show starred soap opera star Terry Lester, Jean Marie Hon, and Jose Flores plus a chimpaneze named Adam who could talk. The voice of Adam was provided by one of the shows producers Lou Scheimer. 15 episodes of Ark II are currently available on DVD along with a fantastic half-hour behind the scenes documentary called " The Launch of ARK II" . This four disc box set is currently available on Amazon.com and at other retail outlets.
