What happens

The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (sometimes referred to as Young Indy) is an American television series that aired on ABC from March 4, 1992 to June 16, 1996. Filming took place in various locations around the world, with "Old Indy" bookend segments filmed in Wilmington, North Carolina, and on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. The series was a Lucasfilm Television production in association with Amblin Entertainment and Paramount Television. The series explores the childhood, adolescence and early adulthood of the fictional character Indiana Jones and primarily stars Sean Patrick Flanery and Corey Carrier as the title character, with George Hall playing an elderly version of Jones for the bookends of most episodes; though Harrison Ford bookended one episode. The show was created and executive produced by George Lucas, who also created, co-wrote, and executive produced the Indiana Jones feature films. Due to its large budget and low viewership ratings, the series was canceled in 1993. However, following the series' cancellation, four made-for-television films were produced from 1994 to 1996 in an attempt to continue the series. In 1999, the series was re-edited into 22 television films under the title The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
