Notes

(edited from Planet Of The Apes Wiki and IMDb.)

The Good Seeds, together with The Cure, was adapted as Planet Of The Apes #1: Man The Fugitive by George Alec Effinger, and published by Award Books.

The fourth episode to be broadcast (4th October in the USA, 3rd November in the UK), this was the first episode filmed, chronologically, according to the Production Code.

This is the only episode of the series that does not feature any humans other than Virdon and Burke.

This episode was originally scripted with a family of gorillas instead of chimpanzees.
