The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles is an adventure series that aired on ABC for 2 seasons from 1992-1993 and later as television movies in 1994. From executive producer George Lucas, the series followed the early life of his famed archeologist Indiana Jones during the first half of the 20th century. For a major part of the series, Indiana Jones (Sean Patrick Flanery) is seen fighting for the Belgian Army under an assumed name during World War I.
