Code Monkeys was a animated television show that was aired on G4 from 2007 to 2008. It was a show meant for adults, and primarily dealt with the life of a couple of video game developers who are struggling to get by. The show delved into the wacky and absurd world of video game development, where the focus was not only on building the game but also on managing personal and professional relationships.

The show featured a cast of interesting and eccentric characters. The protagonist of the show was Dave, who was voiced by Matt Mariska, who is a talented coder but lacks social skills. His best friend, Jerry, who was voiced by Andy Sipes, was the creative force behind the company. They both worked for a video game development company, Gameavision. The show focused on their life, their adventures in video game development and their various misadventures outside of work.

One of the noteworthy characters of the show was Black Steve, who was voiced by Dana Snyder. Black Steve was a nerd who was obsessed with video games and was a member of the company's IT department. He had a unique perspective on the gaming industry, and his love for games was contagious, making him a fan favourite. Another notable character was Clarence, who was voiced by Lionel Tubbins. Clarence was the head of the company and was a tough boss who valued profits over everything else. His quirks ranged from being afraid of committing to marriage to constantly needing to prove his worth in the industry.

Suzanne Keilly and Gretchen McNeil were two of the writers of the show, and their contributions to the show's script were evident in the razor-sharp wit and humour that permeated the storyline of the show. The show often featured pop-cultural references and parodies of famous video games, movies and TV shows. The animation used in the show was unique and visually stunning, with a retro-video game style that added to the overall charm of the show.

The plot of the show focused on Dave and Jerry as they tried to make a name for themselves in the gaming industry. They started out by developing their own game, which received mixed reviews, but they persisted and secured a deal with Gameavision. The ensuing episodes focused on the trials and tribulations that the two friends had to endure to get their game into production. The show dealt with various topics, including office politics, creative differences, and the challenges of developing a game based on pop culture. The show had a refreshing take on the gaming industry, where the focus was not only on the glamour and glitz associated with the industry but also on the everyday struggles of developers.

The show was praised for its witty writing and unique animation style. It was a breath of fresh air in the world of animated television, where shows aimed at adults were few and far between. The show was well-received by audiences and critics alike, who praised its humour and its ability to parody popular games, movies and TV shows.

In conclusion, Code Monkeys was an extremely well-written and well-executed animated show that was a must-watch for fans of video games and parody. The show's unique animation style coupled with its razor-sharp writing made for an entertaining experience. Although the show only ran for two seasons, it was a cult favourite and a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of its writers and animators.
