Info Post
Tom Stern directed a series of "Monkey-ed Movies" for TBS in 1998. He co-write them with his writing partner, Tim "The Hideous Frogman" Burns. TBS began airing them on Feb. 1st. of 1998 and still play them in the wee hours of the morning sometimes. For those of you who have not seen them, chimps act out famous scenes from movie and parody TBS original programs as well. Tom does most of the voices. They were also run weekly on "TV's Bloopers" hosted by Dick Clark and an anonymous oriental girl. TBS ran a show called "Dinner and a Monkey" hosted by the two dweebs from "Dinner and a Movie" in which Tom parodied all of the top Oscar candidates for the year. He got the job based on a few shorts he did a few years back for MTV.
