** Note that the French term 'singe' from the original title includes both apes and monkeys, so this is technically a valid literal translation; however, gorillas, chimps and orangutans are all apes, not monkeys.

* Some of the gaps between ''Conquest'' and ''Battle'' were filled in by a 2005 six issue comic called ''Revolution on the Planet of the Apes''. It also contains some short stories, several of which fill in more of Caesar's background and several set in the gap between ''Battle'' and the original film, obviously trying to bolster the circular timeline theory.

* CanonDiscontinuity: The films are adamant about how all dogs and cats were killed by a plague. But, in the TV series, what do the astronauts see in one episode? Yep, a dog. Someone must not've been paying attention to the films closely. (Although it isn't out of the realm of possibility that a few animals could've been immune…)
** Also in regards to the movies, the astronauts make no mention of "ape-o-nauts" in ''Film/EscapeFromThePlanetOfTheApes'', even if they were regarded as a hoax. Although the TV series could have taken place in the original timeline of the first two movies.
