A new web-based comedy show backed by Sony BMG has launched at http://www.apollospad.com.
Called ‘Apollo's Pad’, the show is set in a run-down New York nightclub. Think the Muppets on drugs or the Fraggles after they've raided their parents' liquor cabinets and you get the idea.
With lovable characters and high production values, Apollo's Pad is content for the YouTube generation. The show is funny, satirical and socially relevant in a warped kind of way.
The characters' twisted antics don't stop at comedy clips; they also take on the world of music, with funky new versions of classic hits such as War by Edwin Starr.
“We believe that Apollo's Pad, with its irreverent comedy and great music, will work for young adults who are looking for great comedy and music on multiple platforms,” said Len Dunne, Managing Director of Galleon Holdings plc.
New comedy clips are uploaded daily to the website and all visitors can view them for free. Fans can also sign up on the website for insider info and updates on new clips.
