4 | [[http://www.fredthemonkey.com Fred The Monkey]] is a WebAnimation based loosely off of ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' by JKR. It centers around the title character, Fred the Monkey, who got Flanderized from TheFool to a Jerkass to someone who's just plain lazy, and Sceb, a semi-evil Space Chicken who once in a blue moon checks his mail. |
5 | |
6 | Other characters include: |
7 | * Cloe, an anime-obsessed GeniusDitz, who seems unaware that she brings Sceb down to a nervous wreck. |
8 | * Space Chicken (Sceb's brother), resident OCD workaholic who runs the site as a whole. Played as the StraightMan against all the idiocy around him. |
9 | * Mr. Deutsch, a partially insane teacher who puts food on the table and loves mathematics with a passion. |
10 | * The Fish brothers, Cadberry and Nigel, the former being an annoying know-it-all and the latter actually having good ideas. |
11 | * BDBB, the very lazy music director who likes to quote ''Monty Python''. |
12 | * Mitch, who shows up once in a while to make a point or to be probed by aliens. |
13 | * Clydex. He's a platypus. |
14 | |
15 | A particular part of the website [[FourthWallMailSlot involves Sceb answering questions without, you know, actually answering them.]] |

18 | Some of the cartoons include {{Easter Egg}}s, accessible by clicking on something at the end. |

20 | '''This series provides examples of:''' |
21 | * CanNotSpitItOut - [[WordOfGod Word of jesus (BDDB)]] says that Clydex says stuff other than "I'm a playtapus" but doesn't because he's too shy. |
22 | * CatchPhrase - "I'm a platypus", "What the biscuit", "Eee? Pah!" |
23 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}} - Fred on occasion, but Sceb tends to have flashbacks more often. |
24 | %% * EasterEgg |
25 | %% * ExtremeOmnivore - Fred. |
26 | %% * {{Flanderization}} |
27 | %% * FourthWallMailSlot |
28 | * GrammarNazi - Sceb, who even showed grammatical corrections in an EasterEgg one time. |
29 | * {{Lastsecondwordswap}} In the year of the monkey song, after Fred sings "Not the bottle-nose dolphin, not the year of the wicked witch!" to which Sceb replies with "Shut up you son of a bi-scuit!" |
30 | %% * NoFourthWall |
31 | * PaperThinDisguise - Fred in the most recent re-launch. |
32 | * ScheduleSlip - Particularly Sceb's fan-mail segment. |
33 | * UnusualEuphemism - "Biscuit." Kind of a catch-all that Sceb picked at random after being prompted to in one of his emails. |
34 | * TooDumbToLive - Mostly in Fred's eating habits...wood glue, a raw turkey, and even pig's blood. |
35 | * VagueAge - Given how many members of the cast are animals, age doesn't come up very often. |
