Grape Ape Shorts
Description: The Great Grape Ape Show was an American animated television series that ran from September 6 to December 13, 1975, for 16 episodes. The title character is The Great Grape Ape, who is a 40-foot-tall purple gorilla with the mind of a child. His catch phrase is saying his name twice ("Grape Ape, Grape Ape") after anything anyone says, usually as a form of agreement or acknowledgement of what was said. He travels the countryside with his canine pal Beegle Beagle, whom he calls "Beegly Beagly." Grape Ape and Beegle Beagle usually ride around in a small yellow van driven by Beegle Beagle with Grape Ape sitting on the roof. A recurring bit would be for him to "rev up" the tiny vehicle like a child with a friction toy, then hop aboard.
