Young Indiana Jones: The Curse of the Jackal Pt. 1

[CameronS654321]

Is there any possible way I contact George Lucas and complain about the Old Indy segments being taken out of the episodes. My favourite episode on VHS was when a teenager complains about his work at a donut shop and Indy starts talking to him about how he fought in Verdun.

[bioniclefactory1]

you should sell this to lucas and speilburg

[PepeKitaJes]

I hope I can get some clarification. Are the scenes of the old-man indy gone from the DVD version? The DVD version I'm thinking of came out in 2007.

[Fayd0golon]

The episodes on Netflix are the same as the DVD versions. We will likely never get to see the original broadcast versions with the old Indy, except for what gets posted here on YouTube.

[EmmaBrownful]

I can see every episode on Netflix... why is that??

[JScribbler]

Man, I wanted Old Indy to take out his pistol and shoot those kids at the beginning.

[LokitheCajun]

People, you should be thankful that they spared audiences the acting of the boys in the above scene.......

[halocodplayer]

Be cool man ha hahhhhhhaaaaa

[GamingLogics]

tbh Indiana was born in WW1 time, i dont think he would be walking around saying shit like, be cool and dude

[camero220]

@GamingLogics what are u taalking about!?!

[TheTenaciousTim]

@GamingLogics indiana is the old man, not the little kid. pay attention.

[tripwilliams2]

The new opening they made for the series is terrible, why can't Lucas stop messing with everyone's childhood memories.

[PengwonH]

I thought it said Charles Schultz (the creator of Peanuts) in the credits... it was carl

[rationalsalvation]

No, this is an "are you afraid of the dark" episode. It may not be spoken in the same breath as Indiana Jones, lest I dislocate my own testicles. I hope Spielberg had nothing to do with this.

[027220]

I like it without the older Indy.

[Habboadictos98]

Is very educatli but the video is very fucker.

[TheOnlyGhostGirl]

does the ever show the real indiana..?

[iahu1991]

@TheOnlyGhostGirl You mean Harrison Ford's portrayal then yes the episode is called The young Indiana Jones and the mystery of the blues

[TheOnlyGhostGirl]

@iahu1991 thank u. U see I'm a pretty big fan of Harrison, he realy is a god actor. (:

[iahu1991]

@TheOnlyGhostGirl I see well he only has a small part. he reminices about his experience in the 1920's

[Bobassa0903]

old indiana kind of scares me

[Bobassa0903]

anybody else feel they should have been born when indiana jones was? sigh...I don't fit into this modern world.

[CagnocCoastOfficial]

I recently just watched "My First Adventure", and to see the narrative done with the older Indy character gives it more of a depth that Corey Carrier's voiceover with the exact same dialogue just doesn't convey.

Furthermore, to just shove these into 22 feature-lengths with bridge scenes featuring a visibly older Corey was a really stupid idea. The episodes are just disjointed and clunky that way, not to mention in later episodes, one might forget how they connect back. Screw you, Lucas.

[legomaxmania]

actully i think that the ocean liner thing is just digffernt pictures not just one ship

[legomaxmania]

Across the river he means the deleware river and i live like on it!!!!!! oh my gosh wow!!!

[dinochelsey444]

seemed like it was more fun to grow up during the early 1900s to the 70s = )

[bluegass]

Getting rid of old Indy is practically criminal -- tho I can see why the producers might've felt he was too decrepit {:^p

[bonzot]

it seems indiana jones developed a british accent in his old age

[onlyashes89]

@bonzot That isn't a British accent...

[AnnieJonesSite]

I love the music in 0:13.

[kellina84]

thank you for posting!!

[TheHeavynerf]

how can it be the queen mary at 3:58 if it wasnt launched for more then 20 years and then become the empress of ireland i believe at 4:02

[Roadracer987654321]

What Happened to the kid who played Young Indiana Jones ?

[LyleBennet]

@Roadracer987654321 He's about 28, 29 now. They should have cast him, Corey Carrier as Mutt in Indy 4. Father and son resemblence, you know?

[LyleBennet]

@Roadracer987654321 He's about 28 now. They should have cast him, Corey Carrier as Mutt in Indy 4. Father son resemblence, know what I mean? Would have been good.

[DemonRinh]

omg so happy these are on youtube this series is what got me into wanting to be an archeologist (egyptologist) when I first saw them close to 20 years ago when I was like 7 years old

[ig09able]

indy?

[Fr4nkWh1te]

I used to listen to all these on cassette. Remember that I could boast with lots of knowledge in history lessons... good old days.

[AnnieJonesSite]

I love George Hall as old Indy! I love how he tells his life stories. 5*

[RachaelLeaB]

Other than the acting of the two boy actors,I love everything else about this pilot episode! Thank you so much for putting this up! 5*

[luiscuevas1998]

this episode is cool!

[spindlegold]

Be cool, man! Be cool!

lol

[SoulsForPaper]

Those city kid actors are terrible.

[Eagle0videos]

Wait a minute,Did'nt Indiana Jones Drink the Holy grail hence making him immortal, and never grow....

[Muramasa007]

Yeah, but they crossed the seal, so he ended up losing immortality.

[GrandAdmiralThrong]

The actor playing his father deosn't have a scottish accent like Sean Connery-bad. The Old Indiana's dialogue isn't enough like Harrison's either.

[VWVVWVVWV]

Agreed - thanks for posting this section of it, I thought I'd never see it again. I hate the transitions in the feature length versions, and I miss the George Hall spots - especially when he meets up with Vicki (Jane Wyatt)!

[Adventure1016]

Hey if you want to check out all of the episodes of indiana jones go to my account Adventure1016 all twenty two episodes coming soon.

[ClaraDarko]

"They got rid of Old Indy in favour of poorly acted, obviously low budget, awful 'joining segments'? Well darn and double darn.". I agree 100% with you, Jenny, I might not be a fan of the Old Indy, but the new scenes were awful (the kid was around 16 or 17!).

By the way, check my channel for some music video tributes to Young Indy's adventures.

[kisser83]

His greatest adventures in the museum are there. Remember he had a rival from Raiders of the Lost Ark? Belloq was his name and he always took credit for Indy's work. It's revealed in one of these episodes.

[DAZVINE]

Yeah what did Indy ever bring back? Ark: warehouse, Holy Grail: lost, Crystal Skull: "Space between spaces" what did he ever get IN a museum?

[NotreDameandStarwars]

many smaller artifacts. Plus in the comic book series many many many more

[pjzamor88]

I always wondered why indy would choose to tell those kids these lame stories of his childhood when he has stories like raiders, temple of doom, and last crusade to tell them.

[TylerCharlesFisher]

"Why, some of the greatest adventures of my life are sitting in this museum!"

Really? I don't see no Ark of the Covenant on display.

[trainchugger53]

Remember the end of Raiders? The ark was taken into either an Army warehouse or Area 51.

[trainchugger53]

by the way, according to the Crystal Skull novel, it is Area 51

[catapie123]

same shit its were the un hides everything

[amusedtodeath1]

I don't see any of those stones from Temple of doom on display ether.

[carapanko]

i loved this show when i was a kid, and i still love it

[alucard624]

Thank you very much for putting the ORIGINAL aired version of this great story here. I still have this version on VHS when I taped it off of TV when it premiered. I was pissed when Lucas broke all the episodes up from how they originally aired. They were fine just the way they were (echoes of the Star Wars Special Edition debacle). Once again thanks for posting cuz I was tempted to post it awhile back when the DVDs came out.

[starwarsfreak1111]

Who is the old guy at 2:02 can some1 explain the plot please?

[MannequinSkywalker]

I hope they are still in canon. I agree with Cluebert on the possibility of the daughter being Mutt's wife. Its plausible to call a daughter in law your daughter.

Besides, there's no mention of how Indy did get kids or who his wife was at this point in canon. Marion's most likely dead by now....

[Rosiercentral]

Smooth talking, Dr. Jones...

[catycatcat4]

poor dog lol

[MarionRavenwood561]

It's good, but not as good as the movies...It's kind of corny too, but aren't all tv shows like that? I love it!

[ShamanKing1138]

thnx for the upload!! kudos to you!

[yungt85]

Indianan jones is the best action hero ever i hope they come out with an indy 5 even though im coming up with a script and sending it to paramount.

[Skullgrin140]

Well, Shia Lebouf's character Mutt Williams might have a spinoff TV series with Indy as a supporting character, hopefully Harrison ford & Karen Allen might come back into the series.

[catycatcat4]

and where did you hear that crap?

[Joel139]

I thought that Indi was going to lose the eye on Indiana Jones 4. I guess he'll lose it on Indiana Jones 5 then...

[NovakFreek]

Thanks for posting this -- I was appalled when I saw George Hall's performance had been axed.

[IrishCinema7]

Did you know george lucas's dog is named indiana and it looked just like the dog shown here and if you do know dont call me an idiot

[archerrobinhood]

Why does he have an eyepatch?

[Rosiercentral]

Pink eye, always a pain....

jk.

[mediumhead641]

i never knew this was the first one it different i remeber someone else telling the story since i could here some and the begining was different

[mediumhead641]

can anyone upload the first movie of the young one i saw it but couldnt here it

[Marius24601]

He should just bash those two kids in the head

[Moomoogogo]

George Hall is a fantastic actor, but he's no Indy.

[spockvideo]

It's a shame Lucas allowed such a butcher job on the DVD release, but I don't really care since I taped the original series in 1992 and can see it in its original, uncut form.

[RunningWithRum]

Even seeing it on TV, I can't really imagine Indy as an old man.

[Smarmee]

Old Indy's all wrong in the way he's written and portrayed, but they got the younger Henry Sr. down pretty well. Vaguely reminiscent of Sean Connery in his Bond days.

[nirejhenge2]

I tend to agree with you there.

[kingpolarbear]

he aint that old but he's still sexy and still got it i would not mind giving him a good going over

[anton1990]

Dont badmouth the great George Hall.

[Aladan57]

I hate old Indy!!! I don't wanna see Indy as an old decrepid man

[ConcertPianist]

He was only 55 in the new movie since it was set in 1954; being born in 1899 anyway.

[jdude222]

it was set in 1957 actually

[ConcertPianist]

egh... 55, 58.... still not old...

[jdude222]

True, but he'd be 52, which no, isn't old.

[jdude222]

Oh wait, sorry dude I wasn't thinking, he would be 58 lol sorry I'm kinda slow today...

[50Calabyte]

lol since when did Indy have an Irish accent?

[Treblaine]

Hmm, old man indy am not too impressed by, he doesn't talk at all like indy in the first 3 or 4 films. I'dve thought indy would be a bit more wiley in old age in a kind of yoda/obi wan way rather than codgery, he's more like an old Marcus Brody. What happened to that rakish grin, that wry spirit, i'd have imagined him to be at least partially like Sean Connery from Crusade.

I get the feeling they were casting more for age than for the most indy like actor at 90+

[RadicalNoran]

lol this is 2 funny

i mean there just kids and some old fart tells them his life story ;]

[bill666gates]

i'm glad indiana was a husky. it's perfect.

[shamu23gt]

Thank you sooo much for posting these! Just bought the DVD sets for the sake of having them in my collection, but this is the version I remember loving when I was growing up. It's a real shame they butchered the episodes for the DVDs the way they did.

[MothraSky]

what was i talking about?

[CaityMonroe]

haha I saw corey last night at the mall, he works at border's now. He lives a couple houses down from me as well.

[Thorpe]

I noticed they done a lot of editing to the DVD stuff. This was narrated but by someone younger, right?

Also, I notice a few episodes Corey looks taller and older where they've joined them together.

[Serenity113]

Aw! I love Indiana's dog... Indiana. :P

[SupraJulie]

George Lucas's dog was Indiana... He was his inspiration for Chewbacca.

[Serenity113]

lol. Yeah. I heard about that on tv. :D

[ethansloan]

the old Indy has none of his Indy-ness. Aside from his hat, he is not Indiana. This series is all about Indy growing up. At the start, he's just a kid. He brags of his travels (see London 1916). By the end of it he has learned to be selfless. And here's old Indy, spending all his time telling his life's adventures to anyone around him. A once wild and crazy guy has become a shell of his former self. I'm glad old Indy has been taken off the DVDs

[rexrabbiteer]

keep in mind his in his mid 90's so he (like many elderly) like to recollect and share memories and experiences that may seem familiar several years later to people. btw, why wouldn't someone as whos led such an interesting life like indy not share some stories with the younger generations?

[ethansloan]

because nearly every time he "shares" his memories, nobody asked to hear them. Do you think Harrison Ford (king of pimps) would eventualy become this old bastard? Do you think Sean Flannery would?

[publicuser3978]

I'll have to concur here. The Jones family name carries too much weight in his world. You can't go from world class adventurer, famous archeologist, first rate pimp, and PhD scholar known throughout, to some doddering old fool "Mr" Jones who no one knows. If Indiana Jones was real, he'd be professor emeritus at some prestigious school.

[ethansloan]

thank you

[Raford146]

PhD scholar? In what? Archeology?

[Nobodywantsme]

Did you imagine Indiana becoming his father when you first saw Last Crusade? Probably not. Yet that is exactly what's happening in KOTCS, and in my opinion makes perfect sense.

So if 40s Indy can become his almost hated father upon reaching his 60s, how can somebody say what he can't become after entering his 90s?

Nobody is immutable. We don't behave nor look like when we were children of younger, and we certainly will not be the same when old. It happens the same to Indy.

[rexrabbiteer]

lol because we all know he's immortal and wont ever get old, remian a *king of pimps* at the age of 95 and become an *Old Bastard* god forbid *Sarcasm* and besides, if you were someone like indy who was near the end of his life and lived this amazing life filled with stories so great they can become their own movie series why the hell wouldn't you share these stories with people? another thing, we are talking about indy not sean flannery so stay on topic

[Raford146]

Wasn't Indy's father a professor at Princeton or something?

[Raford146]

taken off the dvds? what the hell? Why does Lucas think he has to change *everything*? The series was a masterpiece, leave it that way.

[ethansloan]

this series was a masterpice, and even though i dislike the old indy stuff, Lucus doesn't have the right to just get rid of them. he should have at least out them on as special features. I recently saw this episode on dvd for the first time, and the episode it's paired up with doesn't work at all. seperatly they're fine, but story-wise, the two shouldn't have been together. still, i love this show.

[rexrabbiteer]

I could be wrong but....isn't that the queen mary as the steamship? and also the ship in the following scene looks different

[fredocarroll]

It certainly is the Queen Mary. Aside from the triple red stacks, the wraparound glassed-in promenade below the bridge gives her away. It's a time-traveler: the QM didn't sail until 1936, while these events transpired in 1908. The second ship is much tricker. It resembles the SS America, a bit, but the funnel colours are different. Also resembles the Bremen, vaguely. Whatever it is, it's not the sort of liner that would have been afloat in 1908. Does anyone else have a theory on that 2nd liner?

[Dedalus153]

Sorry, but I like old Indy. I can totally see him as a crotchety, grumpy old git who threatens kids who think museums are boring and cusses and stuff. I love the bit with the cane, but it would have admittedly been better if he'd tripped them with his bullwhip.

[rexrabbiteer]

the bullwhip would be a bit much though and I can actaully see the kids crying and the parents of those kids suing indys crotchety grumpy old man ass to an early grave

[ethansloan]

i don't have a problem with old indy wearing an eye patch, put everything else about him is all wrong. indy would not end up as a crotchety old man. he's far too good for that

[rexrabbiteer]

uh.... dude in this show he would have to be about 96 years old, why the hell would he not be a crotchety old man?

[mfiorell]

I don't really like this old Indy. I picture an old Indiana Jones as more like a Clint Eastwood type, not a grumpy, heavyset guy.

[misitifilm]

Proffessor Jones in the show actually sounds like Sean Connery. Very Cool.

[atwozed123]

I think it really that Lucas did not include them in the box sets , say include them as alternate takes e.g The Twin Peaks

had a choice of the log lady or not ?....

[mulmangol]

I agree with Spyderdan.

That was absolute crap. I wish I could have the last 6 minutes of my life back.

[SpyderDan]

Quite honestly, after seeing the opening to this episode, it's pretty obvious why they cut Old Indy out. The kids' acting is awful and the elder Indy comes off as kind crotchety. The characterization just doesn't seem right. I know he's supposed to be old, but I don't think Indiana Jones would trip a couple of poor kids like that and then threaten to hit them with his cane. I'm glad this scenes got cut. They're way more dated than any other part of the series.

[pantsm4ster]

Well Indy get that patch in the new movie. Ps I would be scared shit less if I was one of those kids

[papasuito]

young indiana jones created more of legend to indiana jones

[Jaredraptor]

AND PART THREE

Now, as to the DVDs.....they left the Old Indy bookends out because.....well, the three sets are being released before Indiana Jone and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls comes out in theatres. They want to keep people wondering about the possibility of Indy dying in the new film.

AND YES, I KNOW I'M A NERD! lol

[Jaredraptor]

PART TWO OF MY COMMENT:

Luckily though, he did NOT tamper with the only episode to feature the original Indy: Mysteries of the Blues. That is the one YIJ episode featuring Harrison Ford as Indy.

[Jaredraptor]

It is truely a shame they cut all the old Indy stuff from the YIJ chronicles. but it was actually a fanservice. Y'see, a lot of people complained to Lucasfilm about the Elderly Indy bookends, so when they were released on VHS, George Lucas reedited all the episodes from one hour ones to two hour ones.

[svanloon]

I remember watching this Indy Chronicles when it first came on. I remember thinking WTF? The Old Indy is absolutely terrible. I do think it should be an extra on the DVD. Did we ever learn why Indy has an eye patch?

Thanks for posting this. I'm glad to see it online.

[BigBeanerProd]

why does indy have an eye patch?

[Raford146]

HOLY SHIT that would've scared the shit outta me! Crazy ass old man.

[Indy4fan]

i wonder why the old indy scenes were deleted for the DVD?

[korwinblue]

I think the explanation they gave was for retcon purposes.

[Gasperson]

Oh my god I'm in this! At about 2:34 I'm sitting beside Indy! I've got red hair and glasses, and you can see me in a few of the scenes after that. Actually in the scene where he's riding the bike in the lab, when it cuts to his legs pedaling, it's actually my legs your looking at. BOOYA!

[FrenchVanilla32]

Lol your an actor?

[JMYodaTHX]

Also no matter what anyone else thinks (including George) I loved Old Indy and I think basing his look on Old John Ford was brilliant. Why does Lucas have to make changes to everything? I know it's his material but once something is released move on! First Old Indy and then Old Anakin. Hey man, heroes eventually get OLD! I'm just glad I have my tapes of the original broadcasts. Just need to find them all and burn to DVD.

[JMYodaTHX]

I was hoping the DVD releases would at least let you watch the original broadcast versions with Old Indy but it's not to be. All of the shows will be joined in 90 min movies. This works OK for two-parters but in other examples it doesn't. Like "Masks of Evil" - The first part is the excellent realistic spy thriller set in Istanbul and the second half is a supernatural Halloween horror ep about Vlad the Impayler (AKA Dracula) raising an undead Army.Just doesn't work.

[samsam29]

George seems to have a knack for ruining his own masterpieces. And he is spreading that disease to Spielberg! Soon Schindler's List will all be in color and the nazis in Saving Private Ryan will have walkie talkies instead of machine guns.

[Hobbbitman]

Thanks for putting this on. Love it.
