Monkey is the dubbed English language version of the Japanese television series Saiyūki (西遊記?), based on the classic sixteenth century Chinese novel Journey to the West by Wu Cheng’en.1 It was originally produced by Nippon Television (NTV) and International Television Films in association with NHK.
The series ran for two seasons of 26 episodes each. The first season ran from October 1978 to April 1979. The second season ran from November 1979 to May 1980. Both seasons had footage shot on location in north-west China and Inner Mongolia.
The show is unusual in that it was performed by Japanese actors in China and then dubbed into English. The English language version was produced by the BBC and broadcast in the United Kingdom in 1979, in Australia in 1981 and the USA in 1983. The script for the dubbed dialogue was written by David Weir. It ran for only 39 episodes, because at the discretion of the BBC select episodes were not dubbed for the original run.
I used to watched this when I was kid, one of those ancient Chinese legend, I love it here in your own concept…Mitsu Kuma, Watashi wa hijō ni hokori ni omou! Anata ga nani ka o okonau koto ga deki masu anata ga okonau subete ni inochi o fukikomu……Gōka kenran !!!! ;D XXXOOO
Mingei, Anata wa sō desu watashi ni yasashiku!!! I grew up watching this show and it started my fascination with the orient and the mystical east, so much so I ended up marrying into the culture. I guess when I love a particular thing, I need to know everything about it even down to the boring details. So when I travel overseas I get more out of experiencing the place than most people. Doumo arigatou gozaimashita!!!! XXOOO Mitsu Kuma : D
