Code Monkeys

2007–2008 · 2 seasons

A crude, joke-dense cartoon that feels like a stoner comedy stuffed with 8-bit nostalgia, best enjoyed as a loose, silly background watch.

Overview: Set in the early 1980s, Code Monkeys follows the adventures of fictional video game company GameAVision.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, cynical and campy. Brisk and fine in the background.
About: Work, media, ambition, friendship
Content: Strong sexual content and language. Mild violence and gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
