The Urban Monkey with Murray Foote

2009 · 1 season

A rapid-fire, silly mockumentary that feels like a lost 80s TV curio, full of absurd characters and deadpan gags.

Overview
In the tradition of Alby Mangels, Steve Irwin, Harry Butler and The Bush Tucker Man - comes Murray Foote - animal warrior, conservationist, scientist, recording artist, good bloke and ladies man. In 1987, Murray was fortunate to front his own television program, The Urban Monkey, which unfortunately was lost, and then rediscovered recently in a garage in suburban Melbourne.
How it feels
