Hey, ya wanna buy a monkey? It’s the absurdist classic Cabin Boy!
Join the first timer’s club with season 12 – One Sh!t Wonder! This season, we celebrate actors and directors who only had one shot to make it big in film!
Former NBC intern and Get a Life creator Chris Elliott stars as the title character, a recent graduate of the exclusive Fancy Lad Academy who unwittingly boards the wrong sea vessel and ends up a whipping post for its gruff, foul-mouthed crew after his predecessor (Andy Richter of The Late Show) falls overboard. Over the course of their adventures, Elliot eventually earns the respect of the crew as he also earns his manhood. Elliot’s old boss David Letterman appears in an unbilled cameo as a sarcastic villager in port.Â
