A decent show.

6.0

By da_dunker, Apr 28, 2007

Having seen the pilot tonight, me and my wife have added another show to our TiVo list. Love Monkey is about a mid-30s major label A&R rep who is at a crossroads in his life. Without spoiling the plot of the pilot... basically, it involves the lives of main character/narrator, Tom Farrell (Tom Cavanaugh), his sister and his best friends, male and female. Clever uses of flashbacks are used sporadically throughout the show, but not overused. The music is great and REAL, not pseudo-represented by cover bands imitating well-known artists/songs as is usually the case with most TV shows for some reason.

The outdoor city filming locations used are actually in New York, not a set or stock footage - kudos for that. Also, some interiors are real locations (not sets) as well. The show's title, which primarily refers to the main character, is somewhat revealed or explained in the pilot. Some of the plot is predictable, albeit there are a few subplot twists, but yet it is still an enjoyable show, nonetheless. It (pilot episode) revealed many different stories that will develop along the way and hinted at a few others - due to its setting and cast of supporting characters, there is much promise for good future writing.

"Love Monkey" is just a nice, feel-good TV show with a just a bit of sex, some love, friendship and a whole lotta great music. Highly recommend for adults, young and old.moreless

I loved the premise and wished I could have seen more.

I love music, and I love television, and I love Tom Cavanaugh!! So, imagine my excitement when I saw a show about a music exec played by Tom, I was overjoyed. I waited in not very patient anticipation, and then my new favorite show gets canceled in like record time. I couldn't believe it. The show was good, it was hilarious, had great music, and a music exec with so much integrity, he quit his highly paid front office job for an independent label. I was so impressed with the show, and then it was gone before I knew it.moreless

Typical american!!! canceling a good show...

By chinorenaultf1, Oct 06, 2006

I live in south america & have seen many good american shows getting the boot like Coupling.. but canceling love monkey is simply unforgiveable. This show is awesome, the music is very cool & the plot is very good. But watcha gonna do... Ratings are the ultimate judge... but I wonder why this show didn´t have good ratings... it might not be a revolutionary, blow your mind, 24-like show, but it deserves at least a season or two...moreless
