Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)A friend of mine who lives in Wales turned me on to this show a couple years ago. I have seen the Region 2 copies of these discs, and it's about time they make these available stateside.
It's a strange show to try to describe to someone; they love to go off on wild adventures, and they really pack in the surrealism. It's tempting to ask "what were they smoking?", but it's obvious there's much more to the show than meets the eye. I always tell people that if you look beyond the strange characters, music and stories, it's really about the back and forth rapport between the two main characters, Howard Moon & Vince Noir. Kind of a trippy Laurel & Hardy, if you will.
Some of the more memorable characters ("I'm Old Gregg!") come in later seasons, but the first season contains one of my favorite episodes, about an Alice Cooper loving creature made of old bubble gum named Charlie. A Hubba Bubba nightmare indeed.

Howard and Vince, two workers in a run-down zoo, are often called upon to put their jobs before their pride. That often means dressing up as animals and sitting in cages because their boss, American entrepreneur Bob Fossil, cant afford any real animals. Vince accepts the situation happily, quite in contrast to his grandiose, tweed-wearing colleague. But they often have to leave their jobs to go on quests - to the Artic, or even other dimensions. A sci-fi comedy series with hallucinogenic qualities, related to Monty Python's anarchy and Hitchhiker's astonishing creativity.
