Secret Mountain Fort Awesome

Secret Mountain Fort Awesome is a American animated television series created by Peter Browngardt (storyboard artist on Chowder) and produced at Cartoon Network Studios for Cartoon Network. The show was developed from the idea of a portal unleashing monsters on the world, which was used in the Cartoonstitute short "Uncle Grandpa". At the 2011 Cartoon Network Upfront, it was announced that the series would premiere on July 18, 2011. However, the series was pushed back and premired on August 1, 2011, as a special sneak peak, before the actual series premiere on September 26, 2011. After the 18th episode premiered on February 17, 2012, Cartoon Network cancelled the series and removed it from its schedule, leaving 8 episodes unaired until they were released on iTunes.
==Plot==
When a portal to the world opens and unleashes underground monsters, the creatures struggle to find equality in the human world. An all new species called Disgustoids lives underground because the humans don't let them above it. This show follows five Disgustoids who live in an invincible huge mountain and do unnaimy stuff down there. Few episodes have to do with them trying to get along with the humans upstairs. But many have to do with them underground. Many episodes have them leave their underground base without going above land. like in the episode 7,002 where the quintz all traveled throughout the rifts and boughs of time paradox incorperation inside of their own tv screen shots. and in Teleport-A-Potty when they traveled to a demention where pizza growns on trees.
==Characters==
Festro - The main monster and leader of the group. He is purple with two large, razor sharp fangs on his bottom jaw, he also wears an underwear and an pair of sneakers. He also has two little teeth on his upper jaw. He also has strings of hair that point straight up, making him resemble a walrus. He is the most fun-loving of the group, and sometimes his fun gets them all in real danger. But the Disgustoids are a very strange animal species in this series, and every group of the Disgustoids must have a leader. Sometimes they don't like their leader like in the episode "Fart the President" Everyone grew sick and dreary of his exploits and decided they wanted to get a new leader. They all went through a stupid meaningless yet slightly entertaining presidential campaign reference and everyone voted for themselves so nobody one but technically Festro had poor spelling manners and spelled his name the same way Fart spelled his on the ballot. So he necessarily voted for The Fart. But people began to realize what a softy he was so they did a Mario Kart reference as Festo pursued Fart to win back his title. So even though it may not seem like it all the time Festro is the best leader they all got.
Fart - He is a guy made entirely out of butts, and the biggest one is on his head which spreads its cheeks apart, and makes small farting sounds as he talks. He has a butt on every part of his body, except for the place where any normal persons butt should be. on his rear end. Much like The Devil, Fart goes by many names, he goes by The Fart, The Farts, Fart and Farts. He is the most responsible of the quintet. He always likes for things to be going easy and nice. In some of their episodes Fart usually doesn't like whatever monkey shines the rest of them are up to and goes right against it telling them what severe consequences they may face. But somehow he always gets dragged into them and plays along only to suffer exactly what he was afraid of. Luckily they always find a way out of there and fix everything.
Gweelok - Is a walking booger with zits. Some people would rather call those zits spots. Gweelok is the most logical Disgustoid since he is very well into computers and technology. He has oversized eyebrows that don't fit on his head and has no body or feet. He's just a booger with human like arms that come out of the sides that he uses to move their very hairy and have long black pointy nails and he wears two machinery bracelets on them both. He has hair and zits all over him and he has black beady little eyes and pink lips with long yellow teeth. He and Fart are both the only two Disgustoids who are smart but unlike The Fart, Gweelok is usually not as mature and always dilly dallies off sometimes and acts stupid. Yet though sometimes he tries to warn the other dumber people about the dangers coming across their random acts of stupidity. But usually no one listens.
Slog - This guy is the messiest and laziest of the Disgustoids he is a black furry monkey like substance that is kind of like those things in the evolution chart where it shows humans evolving from apes. he is kind of like that. his entire body is smothered in black fur and puff that reeks and is exquisitely dirty. But his hands feet mouth eyes and nose aren't. He has flies that hover around his head and every time he shows up on screen you hear them buzzing. He wears an Orange shirt with stains and smudges on it and it is very crappy. He doesn't want to take a bath because he likes his odors and sludge.
Dingle - The dog of the group. He is blue and has black hairs for ears sort of like Festro's but a little different. His long pink tongue sticks out of his sharp fanged mouth and drools. He has the body base of a dog except for his man boobs, belly flab and misshapen legs. He doesn't exactly have the ability to talk when he talks he makes rasping gibberish sounds. He goes like, "Blaggle, Blaggle, Blag!" But the Disgustoids can speak his language and understand on what he says. Kind of like Co-Co in Foster Home for Imaginary Friends, Schnitzel in Chowder, Grubber from The Powerpuff Girls and Boscov and Cod Commando from Evil Con-Carne.
Uncle Grandpa - Uncle Grandpa is actually a human in this show but still he gets along perfectly with the Disgustoids. He is everyone in the worlds uncle and grandpa he has a red fanny pack that talks and drives in a white trailer with lots of stuff in it. He has the ability to remove his head and put it on another body exactly like his and yet he has lots of heads and bodies in in his closet. and usually stops by to visit Secret Mountain Fort Awesome. He was also a main character in a show called Uncle Grandpa that was created by the same person who made Secret Mountain Fort Awesome. Every day he would go by a kids house (usually a pre-teen or middle schooler, 13 year old things along those lines) and at first they would start off not liking him but soon after going through an insane adventure with high levels of randomness around the corner of every second they love him and wish that they've never doubted him. The Disgustoids actually made a reference in the show once in the episode where he was building Ham Sandwich a super computer. When Uncle Grandpa flushed the toilet a huge explosion happened then Festro crawled out of it looking slightly different for he hadn't really been invented yet and made a gibberish screech which made some background characters emerge from the toilet including Dingle only he was bigger and green. His first appearance in this show was the episode "Secret Mountain Fort Uncle Grandpa" which was their Christmas special. Festro was hanging fanny packs like Uncle Grandpas over the fire place rather than stockings. Gweelok dressed up as him and decorated the cruddy place. Dingle made milk and cookies and Slog put hot dogs on a cactus rather than ornaments on a tree but Fart didn't believe in Uncle Grandpa who was kind of like Santa in This episode, so Festo read everyone a story by the fire about him and it was just another episode on Uncle Grandpa he was reading. Fart still didn't believe him until at the end of the episode he came right in and spooked the living daylights out of him.
Bromanor - Bromanor is a female Disgustoid who looks and sounds like a boy. She is an evil mastermind who tries making evil plans to take over Secret Mountain Fort Awesome. Her first appearance was in the episode "The 6th Disgustoid" where the bros were looking for a new roommate, who had lots of money to pay off for their landlord. They then came across Bromanor who seemed like the perfect one for the job not knowing that he was a girl, they did so many fun things with her. They had more fun than ever before but when Festro accidentally saw her naked in the shower when asking for some money to buy the landlord a present to shut up and bribe them into letting them stay in thir home without paying forever, he saw she had a vagina and knew she was a girl. He tried to tell the others but they just didn't seem to listen but not only did he find out she was a girl but also then after found out she had evil plans to take over Secret Mountain Fort Awesome own all of their money and cool stuff and keep them as her own personal slaves, so then they stop her the end.
The Disgustiods - The Disgustoids are the background characters in this show and sometimes they are all given a purpose like in the episodes "The 6th Disgustoid" or "Dingle Come Home" for instance they are monsters just like that cast of Secret Mountain Fort Awesome only everyone is different like a blue cube shaped guy with green eyes on both sides of his head and mouths on his tentacles and one on the front of his head or a green big headed guy with huge yellow buck teeth and underwear he also has yellow blood shot eyes and a little black hair on his head.
Huey - he is one of Festro's nephews of. He is weak and fearful. He is green and the buffest of the few. Although he is very stupid ya know? ... Yeah ya know ... There's some wheeling and dealing about here and there and WAIT!!! He just lost his under wear. HAHAHA get it? Cuz he just lost his underwear GET OFF THE STAGE!!!
Louie - he is one too. But he is pink and girly and all the time old bro exposes the trio every day. Excpet for Louie, his TV screen is bolen so he can't see it. He has the curse if insomnia so thats why so hes very very VERY pissed off all the time and he always cries to death his little head off ok? Ok. (dont know what insomnia is? Look it up)
Festro Jr - the one old bro nicely named after Festro because he and him had a nice time growing up in their childhood together. But he is the weakest but he is the stupidest of the few. I hate him with all my life I SERIOUSLY DO!!! And i will not stop until he crumbles to die.
Old Bro - Festro's brother. He never shows his face just from the waist down like Mom and Dad from Cow and Chicken. He has big veiny red legs and a tiny blue thong when his boner is exposed. He is the father of Huie, Louie and Festro Jr. He really likes them and dosen't want anything to happen to them. If someone ever does anyhing to them tha makes it impossile for him to own them then he weakens that person and replaces them with him for a change.
Fort - Secret Mountain Fort Awesome is really supposed to be a mountain with an eyes and mouth formation made into it. But instead Secret Mountain Fort Awesome is actually a living breathing organism. Its first apperance being alive was in the episode "Secret Mountain Fort Love". where Secret Mountain Fort Awesome began sprouting his arms and legs much like Gweeloks and ran around the over grounds smashing stuff and fells in love with an another mountain. It may possibly be an another Disgustoid. In the episode "Road Trippin" they used him as a car and drove him around town to smash stuff.
The Humans - These are the second set of Background Characters that live over ground they may hate the disgustoids but a few of them sure do look like them i mean Sheesh ever heard of something called fashion whoo-whee!!!
Wendyll - A blue friend of the Disgustoids, he has very big hands and looks like a slug. He has two tiny stubby little yellow devil horns and on big eye. He also has a mouth with two fangs in them. He is very good with mechanics and building and fixing things. In the episode "Dingle Come Home" He helped penetrate an invonerable force field made by the king of the humans so they could save Dingle from his jail.
Cashy - A very rich and pretencious friend of the disgustoids he is made of money (litterally) and has golden sunglasses he has a real mouth and he also has a golden necklace in the shape of a dollar sign.
