Tales of the Gold Monkey (1982)
Not just a kid's show

I noticed when looking up this show, that most of the reviewers were just kids when this show was out. I was about 30 when this came out, & granted I may have just been a big kid, but I liked this show quite a lot.
The broad natures of the characters was a nice use of clichés to set up a pretty cool little world. Evil Nazies, great side kick, beautiful babe, comic dog & iron jawed hero. I was always surprised when it went off after one season. Seemed like it had a nice world with lots of angles left to explore.
Eh, well, lots of shows I've liked were one season wonders. I guess I'm not a good demographic model for advertisers.
I'm looking forward to getting the DVD. The Web has been a wonderful thing for finding rare gems like this.
