Code Monkeys is quite simply a comedy that uses an 80's style of video game art for animation. Don't be fooled by the appearance, this is a VERY iffy and vulgar show, with lots of sexual innuendo, violence, and poor social behavior, including but not limited to somewhat graphic sex scenes, shootings, mass suicide, and having the word Black in every African-American's name (examples include "Black Steve, Blackie Blackerson). The abundance of inside jokes and the style of humor (sex-related) will turn off younger viewers. However, nostalgia will be strong for games who played in the 80's as there are references and parodies of famous video games such as Super Mario Bros. and Doom. I would recommend this show to video game fans too old for SpongeBob yet too young for Gears Of War.
