A panel from the comic book KONGA, vol. 1 num. 15, September 1963. In the upper left corner is the blue and black face of a giant gorilla. Two small figures look up and point at him from the lower right corner. In the background is a yellow, orange, and green spherical space vehicle.

Um, guys? This is officially the Svengoolie episode that featured me and my wife wearing our Sven shirts on vacation during the viewer photo segment.

This is a three-panel image of a TV tuned to MeTV featuring three different images: Svengoolie and Kerwyn at the top, Kerwyn in the middle, and myself and my wife wearing our Sven shirts at Universal Studios in Hollywood

There are scenes this movie is famous for?

The scientist made a growth serum that turned a chimpanzee into a large, bipedal gorilla. Spoiler alert: The experiment works and Steve Rogers becomes the first human to take the super serum.

It's Saturday night and MeTV is airing a movie I tooted about five months ago…but I’m still watching anyway #Konga #Svengoolie 🦍

Hey, Konga, while you’re up there can you set Big Ben ahead one hour?
#Svengoolie #Konga

“I know we promised your old lady we’d only go out drinking until midnight, doc, but I know a sweet after-hours joint.” #Konga #Svengoolie

The gigantic ape, holding a tiny man in his hand, stands next to Big Ben’s clock face reading 11:55 in Konga (1961)

Apparently this monkey will obey anyone with a flashlight.

“How do you feel about creepy older men in relationships who wear pinky rings, my dear?” #Konga #Svengoolie

Michael Gough as Dr. Charles Decker putting his pinky-ringed hand on the back of Claire Gordon as Sandra Banks in Konga (1961)

Did we really need such a deep dive in the family dynamic of a character that was about to get killed?

Pro tip: never fight with a man who owns a giant gorilla.

Suddenly the movie focuses on the 30-year-old college students.

Let’s just pack a bunch of students in the back of a cargo van and hope there isn’t an accident.

Unfortunately for veteran actor Michael Gough, this ape wouldn’t be the worst actor with whom he would appear on film #Konga #Svengoolie

Side by side photos of Michael Gough as Dr. Charles Decker with the ape from Konga (1961) and an older Michael Gough with George Clooney from Batman & Robin (1997)

Now I’ve never seen this movie before, but I expect Professor Decker will end up dead at the hands of Konga.

Wasn’t there a Wonder Woman episode about Nazis using a gorilla to kill people?
#Svengoolie #Konga

So, what kind of man are you looking for?
I dunno, someone who commits murder with a giant ape.
#Svengoolie #Konga

The man was killed by a giant gorilla. You own a giant gorilla. It’s kind of obvious. #Svengoolie #Konga

“Please leave, I want to be alone with Konga.” Oh, it’s one of those kind of movies. #Svengoolie #Konga

Come now, Konga, you know I won’t hurt you. *JAB* #Svengoolie #Konga
