No one was ever going to be able to take a show called Manimal seriously.

Manimal, the mother of all "what-were-they-thinking?" series.

This show lasted barely three months on NBC's schedule in the fall of 1983, but its impact can still be felt on TV to this day. Well, OK, that's not true.

Manimal was campy...and developed a cult following even as it became a punchline.

Woeful. But you can tell that from the title, right?

Manimal wasn't funny enough to capitalize on the inherent kitsch factor of the title premise, and not good enough in any other respect to get beyond it.

Despite the idiocy of its core concept, Manimal is actually surprisingly good fun.

This show feels like a parody of superhero shows, but somehow it still wants to be taken seriously.
