A
very VERY short lived cartoon show on
MTV. I think it ran for about half a
season in the mid
1990's. Maybe it was a
one shot deal. The only name I could find related to the show was
Doug Parker.
It's characters were done (or at least
designed by) someone who had done one of
MTV's
bumpers. Bear with me here, but remember way back when MTV had all those cool
animated bumper sequences? There was one that showed several
cartoon heads all straining at something (they were all
obviously taking a dump). Note the characters
particular bulging eyes,
exposed veins. Then you hear a
plop, the MTV logo splashes into a
toilet, and a
sigh of
relief follows.
THOSE were the character templates for
Brother's Grunt.
The only
scene I really saw (at 5 am) was one of those guys riding an
elephant in some
tropical environment. A
mosquito lands on him and
taps one those
funky exposed veins. The mosquito sucks about all his
blood out, becoming so big it can barely
fly away. The elephant rider, without his blood, somehow becomes
shrunken to about 4" tall and must
persue the mosquito to get his blood back.
