This is one of the worst and cheesiest episodes of CHiPs. When an aspiring country singer's brother, who has an orangutan, was arrested for rustling cattle (allegedly), Ponch took it upon himself to take care of the orangutan, inexplicably at the station. The novelty was long gone by this point. The writers desperately grasped for ratings with rehashed silliness like this. When they go to see the country singer, Mickey Gilley and some other country singer also performed. Again, this just shows how desperate the writers were to keep the show afloat. This episode is really just embarrassing overall.
