Tales Of The Gold Monkey

Tales of the Gold Monkey is a 1982 television show broadcast by ABC. Most critics saw it as the network’s attempt to capitalize on the fame of the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark the previous year, in the same vein as Bring ‘Em Back Alive on CBS. In actuality, the premise of the show bears a much stronger resemblance to the 1939 film Only Angels Have Wings. Creator Donald P. Bellisario tried to get the series commissioned since the late 1970s, but executives felt that audiences wouldn’t be interested in an adventure series set in the 1930s. It was the success of Raiders of the Lost Ark that changed their minds. The series featured the romance of early aviation, exotic locales and cliff-hanging action.
