Monkey Dust

I was talking to some of my coworkers about Monkey Dust the other day, and what a great freaking show it was. One of the BBC 3 gems that aren't quite mainstream material but are fabulous anyway. The show takes kind of a Robot Chicken format, animated, but is not quite so laugh-out-loud funny. It's more dark commentary on British society and popular culture funny. After living in the UK for six years, there were still some bits of the show that Jamie had to explain to me, as they were so British-centric. Some of the show was a bit more universal.

I have the first season on DVD (region 2). I don't think they released the second or third due to licensing problems with the music, from what I heard. It's a shame because it's really brilliant. Here's a clip, though, marketing agency-themed - appropriate to the discussion we had the other night. :)
