The Jim and Joe show! Based on real people and events (except for the obvious): THE JIM & JOE SHOW is a situation comedy with puppets set in a card shop.
Following a failed experiment, Evil Genius Professor Lynde changed the course of history by creating a parallel universe where Man evolved from Sponge! Also, in this strange new universe, many of the Programmes on television Turn out to be real!!!
Oblivious to the change, JIM and JOE fnd themselves faced with some of the strangest and most horrific characters ever seen on TV; as Nicholas Cage, Tom Cruise, David and Victoria Beckham... and a Galaxy of other really shity celebrities try to prevent the Professor and the LYNDECo Crew from achieving their goals.
Opening a number of business to help fund his experiments to return them back to there own reality - The Professor, Jim and Joe come face to face with TOM BAKER... The crappiest of all the Doctor's from the BBC's Doctor Who series. Who believes LYNDE to be his evil foe THE MASTER (which he is).
The only thing stopping him from getting to the Professor is JIM and JOE - assisted by William Kirk (a Para-Scientologist Medium).

Sometimes criticized for their odd sense of humor; the team reportedly told journalists during a German tour::
"I would love to meet Tom Cruise... Well, I say 'love' but I Suspect 'like' is more the word I am looking for... Or even 'tolerate' - Yes 'TOLERATE' is closer to what I feel towards Tom!
Well! Actually 'tolerate' is probably also not quite accurate!!!
Lets just say I fight daily with the temptation of setting fire to his house!
To be fair - it’s not just Tom, but also Robbie Williams! Boy! Would I like five moments alone with that sack of used tampons.
And while we are on the subject of People with personalities as stimulating as used sanitary towels - I would dearly love to meet Lorraine Kelly and all the other yoghurt eating freaks at Breakfast Television...
Then find some well-trained Orangutan with a perversion for humpback Scottish woman!"
