## Plot

Brothers **Gus** and **Wally** are monkey astronauts.

Other members of the brothers' crew include bossy astrophysicist **Dr. Chimpsky**, who gives the monkeys their assignments, **YAY-OK** a devoted robot that is slightly outdated and is the brothers' only hope to help keep them on course and Inky, a space octopus and artist who communicates through his ink drawings.

## Characters

* **Gus Monkey** (voiced by **Seán Cullen**) is **Wally**'s older brother. He wants nothing more than to be a hero, but he can't always put aside his monkey instincts. The closest thing the ship has to a captain, he takes being a **GASI** cadet very seriously—well, when he feels like it.
* **Wally Monkey** (voiced by **Mark Edwards**) is **Gus**'s monkey partner and brother, and is considered the smarter of the two. However Poorlygroomed yet somehow adorable, Wally would rather be playing **Banana Blasters** or organizing his expired pudding collection than jetting off on some crazy expedition. If there's one thing **Wally**'s good at, it's being a monkey he can howl and fling with the best of them.
* **YAY-OK** (voiced by **David Berni**) is **Wally** and **Gus**'s obsolete robot companion that helps them on their adventures through space. There's nothing this robot wouldn't do for his beloved monkeys after all, he's programmed that way. He's quite the charmer, too from the fridge to the blender to the vending machine, there isn't a ladybot on board whose circuits he hasn't made beep a little faster.
* **Dr. Chimpsky** (voiced by **Jamie Watson**) is the leader of **GASI** headquarters. He assigns the **Monkeys** their highly important missions (which sometimes include getting him more ice when his drink gets too warm) and does his best to keep them on track when they get distracted.
* **Inky** is a space octopus and an artist who communicates through his incredible ink drawings. Whether he's a member of the crew or just unbearably cute, is anybody's guess. But either way, his artistic talents make him super fun to have around.
* **Lord Peel** (voiced by **Mark McKinney**) is the main antagonist of the series, whom the monkeys constantly mistake for a banana. Before the events of the series, he was a noble businessman. But then the **Rocket Monkeys** began to crave him, and he's been trying to get revenge on them for trying to eat him and especially for forcing him into the dark side.
* **Nefarious** (voiced by **Seán Cullen**) is one of the antagonists of the series. He lives in a prison asteroid, which he tries to escape in most episodes.
* **Slo-mo** (voiced by **Teresa Pavlinek**) is **Nefarious**’s robot companion. In some episodes, she cares about **YAY-OK** a lot.
* **Deep Space Dave** (also voiced by **Seán Cullen**) is a **superhero** who always relies on his fans the **monkeys**, of course.
