Storyline

Warren The Ape," a scripted comedy set within a fictional reality show, chronicles the trials and tribulations of a D-grade celebrity puppet. A brash, cantankerous, out-of-work actor, Warren 'The Ape' Demontague is attempting to clean up his act and scramble his way back into the Hollywood limelight. Having sampled a brief taste of success as a star on the former sitcom "Greg The Bunny," Warren's life has been in a downward spiral ever since the show got canceled. Over the past few years, Warren has paid more attention to drinking, drugs and women than his career, which lately has consisted of seedy exploitation films and a regrettable string of skin flicks. When the opportunity for his own reality show arises, Warren takes this chance to restore his celebrity status once again.

User Reviews

Sex, Drugs and Alcohol.... Puppet Style.

Start with an Ape puppet. Give him a "special" helmet, add a pinch of sincerity, ample of libido and a raging alcohol problem and you have yourself the rumblings of a great TV show.

Warren DeMontague is a Thespian actor who is down on his luck and trying to get back into Hollywood. Unfortunately the drugs, alcohol and hookers keep getting in the way.

What cracks me up is the fact that he interacts with his human counterparts so well. The puppetry is second to none and his facial expressions are spot on. What's so funny about the show is that Warren is nearly always drunk, spends most of his time frequenting lap dancing bars and enjoying the sound of his own voice.

Must watch comedy TV. I just hope MTV keeps this going and it runs for a second season.
