Chimpules: The Legendary Monkey
Chimpules: The Legendary Monkey was a Hercules: The Legendary Journeys spin-off idea proposed by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci when Kevin Sorbo went missing and the show was in danger of cancellation. Luckily, Rob Tapert dismissed the idea (HTLJ "Yes, Virginia, There is a Hercules").

Background[]
- The real-world Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci actually did pitch this idea for a single episode. When they cast the Chimp for the brief scene in "Yes, Virginia, There is a Hercules" they found him too difficult to work with so the idea changed to "Porkules" which would become the next episode that season.
