If you’re a true fan of Greg The Bunny, you’ve been clamoring for the return of the show ever since Fox took it off the air. As it turns out, so has at least one of the stars… and you’ll now get to see his attempts to return to the big screen.

MTV has announced that Warren The Ape is now in development. The show focuses on Warren “The Ape” Demontague, a D-list celebrity puppet who attempts to change his ways to be back in the Hollywood spotlight. Think of him as a less furry Kathy Griffin.

Warren The Ape is produced by George Plamondon & Betsy
Schechter for Picture Shack Entertainment, Kevin Chinoy & Francesca
Silvestri for Freestyle, and Sean Baker, Spencer Chinoy & Dan
Milano, who between this, working on Robot Chicken, and writing the screenplay for the remake of Short Circuit, is trying to take the position of luckiest man in the world from Ed McMahon’s corpse.

Here’s Warren’s MySpace page (of course) and here’s an interview with him from ComicCon ’06.

It’s better then when I saw him at ’06, he had been strung out on cough medicine and cheese whiz and really wasn’t all that coherent. I knew then that a reality show was in his future.
