Special effects guru Stan Winston (who also brought Terminator, Predator and the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park to life) did the transformation effects for Manimal, which were only occasionally accidentally horrifying.

Despite the idiocy of its core concept, Manimal is actually surprisingly good fun.
June 28, 2018
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.
June 29, 2018
Woeful. But you can tell that from the title, right?
July 11, 2018
This show feels like a parody of superhero shows, but somehow it still wants to be taken seriously.
June 29, 2018
Manimal, the mother of all "what-were-they-thinking?" series.
July 11, 2018
The title tells you everything you need to know about how bad this show is.
June 28, 2018
Yet despite - actually, because of - a cheese factor that would worry anyone with lactose intolerance, it's become a cult favourite.
June 28, 2018
For anyone over ten, it was a laughable bunch of balls starring Simon MacCorkindale...We still have nightmares about his bulging hand.
June 28, 2018
Manimal was campy...and developed a cult following even as it became a punchline.
June 29, 2018
No one was ever going to be able to take a show called Manimal seriously.

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.
