Talk:Code Monkeys

message: I couldn't find proof, but I'm quite sure, that the Tony Strickland linked in the article (Republican Senator) is NOT the Tony Strickland voicing for CodeMonkeys and working for shows like "Crank Yankers". 
I don't know how to create a new page like Tony Strickland (Actor), so I did NOT remove the link

message: I'm sorry to say this but the entire Code Monkeys page seems very badly written and unproffesional. Please try to clean this up.
*I could try to clean the article up. What's catching my eye most prominently is the character biographies: they're excessively long and mention nearly every minute detail brought up on the show. I'm going to try to edit them down to the bare essentials. Skibz777 02:21, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

message: What is that pixelated logo on that guy's shirt? Is that the game company's logo? And if so, what is it suppose to be?
The logo on Dave's shirt is the Gameavision logo. If your look closely when they're at the front door in any episode you can see that there is a carpet with the exact same logo. I don't know for sure Im just assuming it is. I saw it someewhere else just cant remember.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.67.168 (talk) 16:54, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I cleaned up the main article and the Episode articles but more episodes will surely come out, so should a seperate page be started of Code Monkey episodes? Otherwise by next year the main page will be two thirds episode list.
Also, should another category (in the main article) be started on how the episodes are made, such as using a HUD and the bottom of the screen to display funny messages and how it's made to look like a very old game? Right now the show info is just floating around. 24.196.115.179 00:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Do we really need a "Locations" section for the show? It seems like useless information. Also, the "Video game-like look of the show" section could be removed and instead put into an expanded explanation on the show's overview. I also propose that we add a little cast section, not just featuing the show's main characters, but also a list of all the guest appearances on the show. Anyone dig?

message: :There is also a possibility that Dave is not a legal american, indicated by the fact that Jerry adopted him to avoid getting deported.
Well, clearly "American" should have a capital A, but I'm not sure how to reword it generally; "legal American" isn't exactly a phrase with a lot of meaning (what is it supposed to mean, legal resident of the US?). (Of course there's the side issue that, contrary to popular belief, in the real world Jerry adopting Dave wouldn't avoid him getting deported, but that's kind of irrelevant in a fictional universe.)

message: The bit about "8-bit graphics" and "16-bit graphics", while admittedly common parlance, is nonsensical. 8-bit and 16-bit refer to the size of the memory address registers on the CPUs of video game consoles, not their graphics capabilities. The NES used 2-bit sprite palettes and a 55-color overall palette, and SNES used an 8-bit sprite palette and a 15-bit overall palette. This portion needs to be re-written or stripped out. 68.52.137.42 (talk) 15:35, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

message: The ET episode suggests it's 1982, which I was amused by because I'd already concluded it was late 1984 to early 1985 after the first "The Woz" one.  Here's why.  They mention 3 lead singers leaving bands in Dave's rant.  Morrissey/The Smiths:  First album in 1983, didn't get much distribution outside the UK until 1984.  George Michael/Wham:  2nd album, first to become popular anywhere, came out in 1984.  The popularity of "Careless Whisper" starting in August of that year gives the best earliest date possible.  Finally, David Lee Roth/Van Halen:  David was gone as of April of 1985.  --GregorySmith (talk) 12:32, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I fully agree with this.  The show is going to use whatever 80's events it likes.  Using this information to "nail down" the year is WP:OR in the form of WP:SYN. -Verdatum (talk) 14:42, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

message: This article is steadily expanding, and some of the information being matained is not particularly applicable to the main article.  I propose deleting the section on One-time characters.  If they are important to the episode, they will show up in the episode description.  The same is true for the Notable games section, which is confusing anyway because it is really just a list of references to real-world games which are either already covered by the episode descriptions or are just a single line from a single episode. Opinions would be appreciated. -Verdatum (talk) 15:04, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

message: While the show's cancelation has not been announced, enough time has passed that its rather pointless for the article to be anticipating a third season being greenlit. G4 has buried the show in the sunday/monday overnight (3am) which is a good sign of their intentions. I think its enough that the article says that there were two seasons and says nothing about any potential future. If it happens, great. But its very unlikely now given how much time has passed since the last episode aired. 66.226.193.82 (talk) 21:03, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Both Comedy Central and Adult Swim wanted to continue the show, but it never went beyond just a "consideration" with no formal meetings iniated or memos written.
