'Manimal' is an American action - adventure series that ran from September 30 to December 17, 1983 on NBC. The show centers on the character Dr Jonathan Chase (Simon MacCorkindale), a shape-shifting man who possessed the ability to turn himself into any animal he chose. He used this ability to help the police solve crimes.

Opening From Narrator "Dr. Jonathan Chase is a wealthy, young, and handsome man with the brightest of futures with a very dark past. From Africa's deepest recesses, to the rarest peaks of Tibet, Heir to his father's legacy, and the world's darkest mysteries is Jonathan Chase, master of the secrets that divide man from animal, animal from man, Manimal." [edit] Overview By modern standards its special effects, though plentiful, were relatively low-quality, not surprising given the time period and other constraints. While Dr. Chase was meant to have the ability to change himself into any animal, in practice his onscreen transformations were almost always into a hawk or black panther, with the exact same backdrops each time, presumably to save on the budget, though he did become a snake once. (In the episodes when Dr. Chase turned into a bull and horse, the actual transformations occurred off-screen.) The show was cancelled after only eight episodes. David Letterman may have had a role in its swift cancellation by mercilessly hammering the show in his typical ironic style. In the years since, its name is often invoked by science fiction fans when asked to name the worst series ever made for American television (which is not to say that it has no fans at all). Glen Larson, the creator, would eventually resurrect Chase briefly for a crossover with his 1990s underground classic Nightman.
