Series Description:

The B.J. and the Bear TV show was a comedy series about a trucker and his pet monkey who travelled around the United States from their base in the countryside of Georgia. Whether at home or on the road, the duo managed to find excitement (and usually trouble)! The local Georgia Sheriffs and their deputies were all corrupt (three different Sheriffs during the series run) and, in fact, the only honest crime official was "The Fox" who was always trying to catch the dishonest ones in their escapades.
