Product Description

Move over, James Bond! Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp swings into action as the greatest super spy ever to foil international evil-doers, charm the ladies and drive a really cool car! In this hilarious all-chimp spy spoof airing from 1970 to 1972, Link and his stunning sidekick Mata Hairi adopt more and more outrageous disguises as they use their considerable wit and cunning to battle the Baron, his chauffeur Creto, the Duchess, Dr. Strangemind, Wang Fu and Ali Assa Seen. When he's not fighting diabolical criminals, Lancelot gets groovy as the leader of the psychedelic pop band Evolution Revolution, which rocks out in these 22 memorable episodes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well... Mar 31 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
First of all, my name is PAUL Cliffe. Lara is my wifes' name. I use her e-mail address because I myself do not have one. I am the person ordering all these DVDs from Amazon. Now, on to Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp. As a child, I used to watch this program on Saturday mornings with my three brothers, and I remember it to be extremely entertaining. We would laugh. We could easily see that it was a spoof of GET SMART, which was also one of our favorite shows. I have not seen a single episode anywhere since it was taken off the air in 1972 ( approx. ). I haven't even seen this DVD yet because I haven't RECEIVED it yet, thanks to a little fiasco with the seller: CALIBRIS. The first order ( I was informed ) was damaged and could not be sold, the replacement was sent on March 12th via Fed Ex and was held at the customs office until the 29th on which I instructed Fed Ex to return it to the shipper. I then re-ordered another copy on the 30th ( I had to deal with CALIBRIS again!) and I am waiting for it to arrive on April 17th or there abouts. My rating is based on the few memories I have of the original program, and not of the DVD. After all, I shouldn't be expected to rate something I have yet to see! Oh, by the way, the reason for the delay at customs was that the shipper ( CALIBRIS ) wasn't providing a "proof of value". And while I AM being reimbursed $104.18 CDN ( my cost ), the DVD I ordered on March 30th is costing me $112.51 CDN.

4.0 out of 5 stars NOT the Complete Series but WAY FUN! Jun 14 2006
By Grahm Eberhardt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is NOT the complete series. This is 11 and a half episodes. (Each Lancelot Link episode is a pair of 10 minute stories with a musical intermission by the Evolution Revolution all chimp band.) If you count each episode half as an episode, there are 22 on this DVD set.
I can't find a complete episode guide online so I don't know how many were made. I can find titles for 14 episodes on the internet but one episode (or pair of episodes) from this DVD is NOT on that list. How many more are missing from that list? Does anybody know?

Here's what you get (with episode numbers courtesy [...])

Disc 1
1.9) The Dreaded Hong Kong Sneeze / The Great Bank Robbery
1.6) The Reluctant Robot / The Royal Foil
1.7) The Great Great Race / The Great Plane Plot
?) The Lone A.P.E. / Missile Beach Party
1.13) The Evolution Revolution / The Great Water Robbery
1.1) There's No Business Like Snow Business parts 1 & 2

Disc 2
1.5) Bonana / The Greatest Chase In The World
1.12A) The Chump Code Caper
1.3) Lance Of Arabia / The Doctor Goes A.P.E.
1.4) The Surfin' Spy / The Missing Link
1.11) The Golden Swwword / The Chilling Clump Chase
1.8) Landlubber Lance / The Temporary Thanksgiving Turkey Truce

The ones we're missing:
1.2) The Great Brain Drain / The Great Double Double Cross
1.10) The Sour Taste Of Success / The Baron's Birthday Ball
1.12B) Weather Or Not
1.14) The Spy Who Went Out In The Cold / Too Many Chumps

I find it strange that they'd leave off a handful of episodes and VERY strange that they chopped episode 12 in half, showing only the first part of it. The Weather Or Not segment is missing. End Credits roll after the musical interlude. Weird.

Still, it's Lance Link and Mata Hairy on DVD so I'm happy. Well worth the [...]. The show hasn't been cleaned up and is rather grainy and faded but that's part of the charm, really. The only special feature is an option to play just the musical segments.

Here's hoping Image releases a volume 2.

1.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Disappointing Jun 14 2006
By P. Rose - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was a very confusing DVD selection to try and purchase as different sources made mention that this would be the "complete" series. Well, after viewing the DVD's it's very clear that numerous episodes were ommitted which makes me glad that I still own the "complete" series on videotape. My second complaint is the terrible production quality of these recordings. Could they have put any less effort into these reproductions? Very POOR POOR quality! I'm sorry I wasted my money! Missing episodes include: Chump Secret Code, Weather or Not, The Sour Taste of Success, The Barron's Birthday Ball, The Spy Who Went Out in the Cold, Too Many Chumps, The Mysterious Motorcycle Menace, The Great Beauty Contest, Chump Takes a Holiday, To Tell the Tooth, The Great Brain Drain and The Great Double Double Cross.

5.0 out of 5 stars No Second Banana! Jun 14 2006
By Richard J. Goldschmidt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a funny show that I remember watching on SATURDAY MORNINGS. I have the lunchbox too. Just got my DVD set and they are 16mm prints in the half hour syndicated format BUT still very enjoyable to watch. I always liked the musical segments and LANCE is playing the same FENDER STRATOCASTER I have. The voice cast led by DAYTON ALLEN is worth the price of admission alone. Also, IMAGE did a nicer cover on the actual release (Not the one pictured here). Pure fun!
