Monkey Time Media is a Los Angeles based production company that creates, develops and produces original, non-scripted programming for television. Founded in 2010 by Emmy award winning producer, writer & former network-executive, Joel McGee and veteran executive producer, Gary Dawson, Monkey Time Media offers experience in a number of genres including game, talk, hidden-camera, reality, docu-soap, dating, relationship, awards, poker programming and more. We also take great pride in the strong relationships that we have formed over the past twenty years with agents, producers, network executives, on-air talent and other key industry personnel.
Since opening our doors in 2010, we have worked tirelessly to build a successful new company, placing more than one-hundred programming concepts into active development. Along the way, we have teamed up with more than a dozen production partners including 3 Ball Productions, The Gurin Company, Momentum Entertainment, Mike Mathis Productions and Rubicon Entertainment .
Monkey Time Media also provides both development consulting and hands-on production services for other companies’ television projects. We’ve been commissioned to provide these services on a number of projects including the Hasbro Studios game shows “Scrabble Showdown” and “Family Game Night”, the GSN relationship series “Love Triangle”, Speed Channel’s ambush-style quiz show “Pumped!” and the “American Idol” Season 12 Finale Live Pre-Show for Fox Digital.
