George of the Jungle

George of the Jungle was a prime time animated television program that was originally broadcast on ABC between 1967 and 1970 and is a parody of Tarzan. The series was produced by Jay Ward and Bill Scott. The title character, voiced by Bill Scott, was a dim-witted but big-hearted "ape man", who lives in the jungle and is called upon each episode to save its inhabitants from various threats. George is supported by his love interest Ursula June Foray, his sapient gorilla friend Ape, (Paul Frees; who is more intelligent than George, and who sounds remarkably like Ronald Colman), and his pet elephant Shep (who acts more like a lap dog; "Big peanut eating doggie"--George).
