The latest project of British actor and comedian Creator/NoelFielding, better known as one half of ''Series/TheMightyBoosh'', described by channel 4 as "a psychedelic character based comedy show half-filmed and half-animated", although really, that [[SurrealHumour description barely]] [[MindScrew does it justice]]. Released in 2012.

* AnAesop:
** "Paul Panfer" raises debate over whether or not remaking films dignifies the original. Tony Reason claims they're shallow and devoid of any artistic integrity. By the end of the episode, the spirit of Elvis Presley himself thanks Paul Panfer for remaking his old movies and reviving interest in his filmography.
** The Cucumbers of Cool episode points out how being trendy isn't worth the stress of staying cool and if you want to be mundane, there's no shame in that. Noel even lampshades at the start of the episode that he wants to do some social commentary.

Each episode involves Noel (playing [[AsHimself an exaggerated version of himself]]), his friend Dolly, his aardvark butler Smooth and his cleaner Creator/AndyWarhol having various bizarre adventures in Noel's jungle home. Added to this are numerous sketches, cartoons and musical interludes, often entirely unrelated to the main plot, involving such characters as Sergeant Raymond Boombox (an incompetent New York cop with a talking knife-wound on his left arm) Roy Circles (an anthropomorphic chocolate biscuit with disturbing racist tendencies) and Noel's landlord Secret Peter (a brain-damaged purple blob with a passion for tennis).
