      I don’t know if this is sarcasm but my dad made me watch George of the jungle as a kid because he had grown up watching the original tv show and it literally had no affect on me. I did not remember who was in it or what he looked like at all. I am positive I was completely unfazed by the naked scene. Which is interesting because at that age I definitely had a huge crush on Wesley Crusher from Star Trek and the older brother from Wizards Of Waverley Place.

I was obsessed with George the Jungle as a kid. And I've always been into Brendan Fraser but for some reason the naked scene did not do a thing for me.
      Don't ask me why but him in that Journey to the Center of the Earth worked more for me and I'm still unsure why especially because I actually like George in the Jungle when I don't like Journey to the Center of the Earth.
