Planet of the Apes is a 1974 American science fiction goggle box series that was broadcast on CBS. The series features Ron Harper, James Naughton, Roddy McDowall, Marker Lenard, and Booth Colman. It is based on the 1968 movie Planet of the Apes and its sequels, which were, in turn, based on the 1963 novel La Planète des singes (translated equally Planet of the Apes) past Pierre Boulle.
Overview [edit]
The serial begins with the June 14, 3085[one] crash of an Earth spaceship that encountered a time warp while approaching Alpha Centauri on August xix, 1980.[2] The spaceship is crewed by three astronauts, one of whom has died in the crash. The other two astronauts, Colonel Alan Virdon and Major Peter J. Burke, are unconscious but are rescued by a human who carries them to an former flop shelter. Later the human opens a book containing historical text and pictures of Globe circa 2500, the ii astronauts are convinced that they are indeed on a hereafter Earth.
The crash is also witnessed by a immature chimpanzee who tells his male parent, a hamlet official who alerts the regime. Ape councilor Zaius (an analog of the character from the original movie), notes that another such incident occurred ten years earlier. He orders the chief gorilla, Security Chief Urko, to find the humans and bring them back live. Zaius wants to notice out equally much equally he can virtually the humans before they are eventually killed. Zaius doesn't trust Urko to follow his orders and bring back any surviving humans, so he sends along his newly hired chimpanzee assistant, Galen.
Both Virdon and Shush become dorsum to their ship to check the ship's chronometer. They are more than 1000 years in the time to come from when they left World. Virdon insists on retrieving the ship's flight log in the hopes that they will exist able to clarify it and be able to return to their own time catamenia, merely while they are at the transport, they are captured, and the old homo is later killed past a grouping of apes.
Galen finds the human volume that the old man had been carrying. He reads parts of the book and begins to doubt the history that he has been told: apes have e'er been dominant, and humans take e'er been junior and subservient. When Galen finds out that Urko has bundled for the ii astronauts to escape and exist killed in the attempt, he stops the shooter and helps the humans escape. During the escape, a guard is killed, and Galen is found standing over him with a gun in his hand.
Galen discusses the volume that he institute with Zaius, who then accuses him of heresy. Galen is sentenced to death for his crime. Then Virdon and Burke find out about his sentence and rescue Galen. They are all so declared enemies of the state and get fugitives. The three fugitives thereafter wander effectually the territory that used to be the western United States having various encounters with apes, humans, and quondam man civilisation ruins.

Episodes [edit]
Production [edit]
Discussions for a Planet of the Apes television series were made by producer Arthur P. Jacobs every bit early as 1971. Because of the success of the movies, the idea of a idiot box serial was delayed until after the completion of Battle for the Planet of the Apes during the first half of 1973.[3] Withal, shortly after the premiere of Battle, Jacobs died, and his production company APJAC Productions sold all Planet of the Apes rights and privileges to 20th Century Fox.[four] Subsequently, telly rights for the first three Planet of the Apes movies were sold to CBS and broadcast successfully during September 1973. Based largely on high viewership of "film-of-the-week" television broadcasts of the first few movies, CBS began to disfavor other contenders for a new science-fiction series, including Factor Roddenberry'south Genesis II (1973) and favor proposals for a Planet of the Apes television series.[5] Fox and CBS and then continued Jacob's plans of a series the side by side year.[vi]
CBS ordered 14 episodes of Planet of the Apes to be produced. The series was filmed for the most part on location at what is now Malibu Creek State Park, with a upkeep of well-nigh $250,000 for each episode.[7] Originally scheduled to be broadcast during CBS'south Tuesday night family hour,[8] the first regular episode of the series was broadcast on Fri, September xiii, 1974 from 8:00-9:00 PM. The remainder of the series was broadcast during this same time slot until December 27, 1974, when its 14th and final circulate was shown as a result of a premature cancellation of the series due to poor ratings.[9]
Music [edit]
The series' primary theme music was composed by Lalo Schifrin; Schifrin also scored three episodes of the serial - "Escape From Tomorrow," "The Gladiators" and "The Practiced Seeds" (the latter, though not the premiere episode, was the first to exist scored). Earle Hagen composed the scores for "The Legacy" and "Tomorrow's Tide," while Richard LaSalle wrote an original score for "The Trap." In addition, 3 episodes received partial scores - Hagen composed 1 for "The Surgeon," LaSalle composed "The Deception," and music supervisor Lionel Newman composed his only music for the series with "The Interrogation" (those last three, similar the other episodes, were otherwise tracked with the music composed previously).
Intrada album [edit]
In 2005, Intrada released an album featuring Lalo Schifrin's first and ending music along with all three of Schifrin'south scores and Earle Hagen's "The Legacy." The album also includes the logo music for Twentieth Century-Fox Television past Alfred Newman.

The introductions created originally past 20th Century Fox to begin each movie were replaced by a now-aged Galen (McDowall) examining the events of the telefilms. The ancestry and endings revealed Virdon and Burke'due south final fates: "They found their computer in another city and disappeared into space as suddenly as they'd arrived". According to "TV Zone Special #17" (1995 event) McDowall filmed these "two years afterward the demise of the beginning run episodes of the Planet of the Apes boob tube series", which would exist December 1976.
