'''''The Brothers Grunt''''' (1994-1995) was about the leader of the grunts, Perry, who had escaped. His five brothers (Frank, Dean, Bing, Sammy and Tony) have to find him or else the brotherhood of the grunts will fall. It's a CultClassic to fans of Danny Antonucci. After this show ended, Danny would later be famous for Creator/CartoonNetwork's ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy''. As of 2024, the show has not officially appeared on VHS or DVD. However, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuswZYAsIAI there is a fan movement]] to help support the idea of releasing the show onto DVD.

There *are* Brothers Grunt DV Ds for sale, but none of them look like official releases. In other words, bootlegs.

Did you know that animator Danny Antonucci (the same creator of ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' and ''WesternAnimation/LupoTheButcher'') made a show for Creator/{{MTV}}? If not, here's the background of it.
During UsefulNotes/TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation, animation was enjoying new life as being entertainment for kids (with shows like ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'') and teens/adults (''The Simpsons'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'', as well as Creator/CartoonNetwork airing classic theatrical cartoon shorts and 30-minute animated shows from the Golden Age of television). However, MTV's ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButtHead'' was coming under fire for being a bad influence on children after a mom who lived in a trailer accused the show of driving her son to burn down their home and another kid got in trouble for crushing an infant with a bowling ball he dropped off a bridge. MTV decided to temporarily cancel ''Beavis and Butt-Head'' to make necessary changes to the content. While that was happening, MTV went scrambling for a replacement show. This was that show, much to the horror and embarrassment of MTV and its fans.

* VagueAge: The main brothers'age is never given--they're definitely adults, born at the exact moment as each other, and younger than the Poobah who raised them, but exact numbers have never been stated.
** The Poobah himself is old enough to be present at the brothers' birth, but again his age is never stated. Further complicating things is the fact he looks the same in flashbacks as he does now.

* SpeciesSurname: Only implied--a Grunt is a completely seperate species from humans, having evolved from a strange lizard creature (rather than primates) long ago, and while the series is called "The Brothers Grunt", the title characters are only ever referred to by their first names. However, a phone operator in "The Big Crapple" is able to connect the brothers to Perry's phone number by searching for "P. Grunt", implying "Grunt" might also be their chosen surname.
