Still in the capable hands of producer Sy Weintraub, the TV Tarzan (Ron Ely) continued the more recent (and more authentic) interpretation of Lord Greystoke as a sophisticated, articulate jungle adventurer as seen in the Tarzan films of Gordon Scott, Jock Mahoney and Mike Henry. Also carried over from the big screen was young actor Manuel Padilla (Tarzan and the Valley of Gold, Tarzan and the Great River), now playing the jungle lord's kid sidekick alongside Cheetah, the simian one. The first half of his inaugural season finds Tarzan rescuing seeing-eye lions, endangered leopards, and pampered princes while battling man-eaters, despots and deadly arachnids in this 4-Disc, 15-Episode collection. Guest stars include former Tarzan Jock Mahoney, Star Trek's Nichelle Nichols, Woody Strode, and Russ Tamblyn. Review: Lord of the TV Jungle - Johnny Weismuller was the greatest Tarzan ever.But,Ron Ely made an excellent TV Tarzan.He was perfect for the part,was athletic and did most of his own stunts which usually ended up with him getting hurt.Up to that point,he was the 15th actor to assume the role, going all the way back to 1918.Gone was the "Me Tarzan,you Jane" dialogue,This was a well educated Tarzan.Gone was Jane as well.Manuel Padilla Jr played an orphan boy named Jai which Tarzan takes under his wing.I used to watch this as a child and am still happy to say that it is exactly the way I remembered it with plenty of action and adventure.There are plenty of guest stars here which includes Ruth Roman Jack Elam Support your local Sheriff) Julie Harris (Knot's Landing) Maurice Evans (Bewitched) Ralph Meeker Henry Silva (Ocean's Eleven) Robert J Wilke (The Legend of Jesse James) James Earl Jones (voice of Darth Vader) Jock Mahoney (Yancey Derringer) Coincidentally, Jock Mahoney played Tarzan in the movie,Tarzan goes to India.He appears three times here in season one as different characters.He was also the stepfather of actress Sally Field. Manuel Padilla Jr, who plays Jai, would appear in the final season of Sally Fields "The Flying Nun" TV series. Good stories throughout this season with one episode playing out like an episode of "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" with hi-tech computers and villains in an underwater cavern.Another episode has Tarzan pitting his wits against a computer that can predict it's opponents next move. It's a shame that Ron Ely did not do more TV work as he makes a great man of action as you will see in this series Review: Great tv series - I'm a fan of Tarzan Loved it when it was originally aired On tv Ron Ely was a great actor DVD is great Everything is great ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Manuel Padilla Jr., Ron Ely | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 246 Reviews | | Format | NTSC | | Genre | Action & Adventure/Television, Television | | Language | English | | Number Of Discs | 4 | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Action & Adventure/Television, Television - **Format:** NTSC - **Contributor:** Ron Ely, Manuel Padilla Jr. - **Language:** English - **Number Of Discs:** 4 ## Images ![Tarzan - Season One: Part One (4 Discs) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81lVah2rKnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lord of the TV Jungle *by M***E on May 22, 2012* Johnny Weismuller was the greatest Tarzan ever.But,Ron Ely made an excellent TV Tarzan.He was perfect for the part,was athletic and did most of his own stunts which usually ended up with him getting hurt.Up to that point,he was the 15th actor to assume the role, going all the way back to 1918.Gone was the "Me Tarzan,you Jane" dialogue,This was a well educated Tarzan.Gone was Jane as well.Manuel Padilla Jr played an orphan boy named Jai which Tarzan takes under his wing.I used to watch this as a child and am still happy to say that it is exactly the way I remembered it with plenty of action and adventure.There are plenty of guest stars here which includes Ruth Roman Jack Elam Support your local Sheriff) Julie Harris (Knot's Landing) Maurice Evans (Bewitched) Ralph Meeker Henry Silva (Ocean's Eleven) Robert J Wilke (The Legend of Jesse James) James Earl Jones (voice of Darth Vader) Jock Mahoney (Yancey Derringer) Coincidentally, Jock Mahoney played Tarzan in the movie,Tarzan goes to India.He appears three times here in season one as different characters.He was also the stepfather of actress Sally Field.

It is one of my favorites from my childhood. The scenery depicting the African jungle contributed to my fascination with the entire African continent which endures to this day. My deep love for African wildlife was no doubt shaped by this show. I didn't know at the time the profound effect the show would have upon me. From what I have read, they have done an excellent job in presenting these episodes I assumed would be lost forever. I am so glad to see them on the market finally. I only wish it was available as a regular dvd, not a DVD-r format. I believe that format will not hold up as long as a regular dvd. Make a backup is all I can tell you. Even in this format, I intend to buy, if they release both seasons. I am just waiting for the price to be a much more attractive. I refuse to pay the full going rate for a show that is placed on inferior media. That's what dvd-r is, inferior. This set is no doubt like a time capsule from the second half of the 1960s. It should be treasured for the work of art that it surely is. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7817558-tarzan-season-one-part-one-4-discs](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7817558-tarzan-season-one-part-one-4-discs) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
