 TIME Magazine Archive Article -- The Chimp Channel -- Jul 5, 1999   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
The idea and execution here are adequate: chimps run a network on which they parody current TV shows and make fun of Hollywood.
Just in case Ted Turner could resist talking chimps, the creators have the fake network run by a mean, stupid Australian mogul to mock Turner's rival, Rupert Murdoch.
Chimps all day may sound appealing, but you probably need some midgets and bikinied women to round out even 30 minutes of entertainment.

 "The Chimp Channel" (1999)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
The Chimp Channel combines excellent writing with amazingly human-like performances to achieve comedy unrivaled by traditional adult actors.
Indeed, if the skits were performed by a Saturday Night Live cast, the audience would be bored to tears, but there's something special (and incredibly funny) about a chimp version of Judge Judy.

''Chimp Channel'' programming, which seems to be a perfect fit after ''World Championship Wrestling Thunder'' on Thursdays, is a half-hour comedy that purports to present what TV and movies would be like if there were an all-ape network.
TCC also is a perfect example of the kind of off-the-wall niche programming that cable channels can experiment with, especially during the summer, when most of the competitors are deeply engrossed in mind-numbing reruns.
Each ''Chimp Channel'' show will be loaded with parodies of many of the TV shows and movies other primates have been enjoying for years:

Tom Stern, cocreator of TBS's new The Chimp Channel, is accusing the show's producers of going bananas and firing him when he was only monkeying around to prove a point.
In his suit for fraud, conspiracy and breach of contract, Stern claims his former employers, Telescopic and Palomar, are swindling him out of the rights to the show--which features well-trained primates acting out your favorite movie and television scenes--and intentionally cheating him out of the profits.
Although damages are unspecified, Stern claims his Chimp Channel "intellectual property" is worth at least $1 million.

 Independent Media Magazine - How to Lose Your Job in Talk Radio   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
Clear Channel Communications, the 800-pound gorilla of the radio business, owns an astonishing 1,200 stations in 50 states, including Newstalk 550 KFYI in Phoenix, where I do the afternoon program … or did until last summer.
Clear Channel stations were unusually visible during the war with what corporate flacks now call “pro-troop rallies.” In tone and substance, they were virtually indistinguishable from pro-Bush rallies.
Criticism of Bush and his ever-shifting pretext for a first-strike war (what exactly was it we were pre-empting anyway?) has proved so serious a violation of Clear Channel’s cultural taboo that only a good contract has kept me from being fired outright.

The Chimp Channel is in my opinion a poorly-written, novice attempt at a comedy series and nothing about the program is funny - in fact most of the dialogue insults the intelligence of the viewing public.
Aside from the lack of humor, The Chimp Channel uses young chimpanzees and orangutans as its main actors.
As I watched the premier episode I began to wonder who was watching out for their welfare and who was supplying and "training" the apes.

Those who think chimps, dressed up as people, are funny.
The TBS network kicks off "The Chimp Channel" (10:05 p.m., TV-14, D), a new half-hour comedy series about a cable TV network run by chimps and orangutans wearing funny clothes.
TCC (The Chimp Channel) features such parody monkey-shine shows as "Treewatch," "The Y Files," "Cosmetic E.R.," and a parody of the movie "The Full Monty." Much of the humor on "The Chimp Channel" is mean-spirited and crude and there is no shortage of sexual double entendres.

 Welcome to Canines.com's About Animals
According to the Humane Society of the United States, The Chimp Channel puts forth a damaging and demeaning image of chimpanzees and other great apes.
In light of the positive steps taken by TBS and other media in producing high-quality nature programs, it is especially disappointing to see a network take such a giant step backwards in its treatment of these animals.
Reading this advertisement makes me wonder whether TBS and Time Warner executives have succumbed to this madness, or perhaps they have consumed a few to many Banana Daiquiris at some of theirr cocktail parties, resulting in a jungle fever that accompanies greed and profit making in the world of commercial television.
