Mr. Meaty is a Canadian television series, airing on CBC Television in Canada and the Nicktoons Network in the United States. The show features puppets working at a fast food restaurant called Mr. Meaty (a parody of fast food chains) located inside the Scaunchboro Mall, a name based on the Ontario city of Scarborough). Mr. Meaty is the third Nickelodeon/CBC Television co-production, the first being Little Bear and the second Pelswick.
Mr. Meaty has a number of episodes featuring full 14-minute Director's Cut, Extended Scenes and Deleted Scenes on Turbonick.
Mr. Meaty received a great deal of criticism from vegetarians and parents who did not like the gross-out humor. Many petitions were signed and sent to Nickelodeon to end the show. This may be a reason for its move to the Nicktoons Network and ultimately its short life. However the show has a substantial cult following.

15-year-old cashier and the smarter of the two Mr. Meaty employees. Josh is into dating and girls and is often seen hitting on his female customers. He also enjoys making movies, indie-punk, and acting cool. His ambition is to become a filmmaker/rock star. On his job application, he mentions that he enjoys buttering bread and fixing holes.
Parker Dinkelman

15, and works as the frycook at Mr. Meaty. Dim witted and hygenically challenged, Parker enjoys making movies with his friend Josh and cooking foods. Unfortunately, his gross habits, including flatulence and other bodily noises, scare away girls that Josh is talking to, and for this reason, Parker can be considered Josh's foil. His special skills that he wrote on his job application were "Nunchucks and stopping kids from running". Parker was a member of the Bear Cub Scouts.
Edward R. Carney
Mr. Meaty's founder and CEO (as pointed out in Mr. Meaty Employee Training Video #77), previously cryogenically frozen. He will not rest, until every man, woman and child has a Mr. Meaty meal 5 times a day. He claims that he had nothing, but a bathtub full of pork butt and according to him, he rules "the nineth largest meat buffet in the universe"
Mr. Wink
he manager with an electric chip on the back of his head. He is hinted to have once been kind, but Carney used the electric chip to turn him cold, bitter, and robotic. His ancestor from many generations ago signed a contract, that forces him to work at Carney's side. He seems to have issues, hinted by dressing as a woman in "Noseferateens." Apparently, his opinion on being shocked is not as bad as it used to be; in the first few times, he would respond with terror, but later, he seems to see it coming, as he responds with a sarcastic "Oh, here it comes." before being electrocuted.
This show was pretty awesome for its time. One of the good ones in the past few years.
YES!!! I loved this show. I always watched it on CBC in the mornings.

Oh god, the commercial for the yeti would always make me crack up. Good, good memories.
This show was actually really funny.
I remember watching it online at Nick.com or something, it was pretty funny.
The title makes it sound like a porno :saddowns:
