N, Not Your Everyday Series

Promoting Stephen King's upcoming book, this mind-distorting series combines the visual stylings of a graphic novel with a chilling tale of suspense.

Outside of the Box

Please officer, don't mime the smell! In this episode of the retarded policeman, shots are fired in the name of traffic safety.

Impossible is the Opposite of Possible


Personally, I never found the Vayner video very funny because it was about a guy who REALLY wanted to be successful. Vayner actually thought that by putting his entire heart and career into a video portfolio, he would gain the respect of his colleagues and others would believe in his superiority. Since Cera’s self-aggrandizing antics are only for the sake of parody, I think it is not only funny, but genius. Knowing that Cera doesn’t actually believe his outrageous claims means that I can laugh as loud as I want and sleep soundly at night.

Moral of this story: Hurry up and get this web series out there, CBS! Mockumentaries are what Cera does best and if this new web series is even 1/nth as brilliant as this video or Cera in Arrested Development, I will be a very loyal fan.

Tek Jansen

A cohesive, perverted Space Ghost, that has almost nothing to do with the news.



It looks like the creators of the Ambiguously Gay Duo may have a new cult hit with Steven Colbert's Alpha Squad Seven: The New Tek Jansen Adventure. Even I am mildly obsessed.
A visual comic strip, Tek is like a big hunk of brownie in your double fudge ice cream, a sinfully guilty pleasure.

This is the third piece of the Tek Jansen epic. After airing some time last week, The Colbert Report episode re-run last night.

Though this new Tek episode continues to provide dry and overly sexualy humor, the hightlight for me was George Lucas in the studio watching the cartoon space spoof. After losing the Steven Colbert's Green Screen Challenge, Lucas stayed as a guest on the news show. Watching George Lucas watching anmiated space drama, very entertaining.

Predators of the Sprawl

The Nursery is a collective of young animators, filmmakers, writers, and illustrators devoted to creating fresh, edgy entertainment for your enjoyment.



Predators of the (Urban) Sprawl is a crude yet funky look at hipsters in the city. Now in their third episode, Predators takes issues that are commonplace to city dwellers and transform them into animated vignettes.

In this episode,
Life in the Sprawl heats up as summer temperatures soar and brainless hipsters take to the streets for relief. There is danger in them hoods hater: QuarterWatersaurs!

As a former New Yorker, I must say that Predators III perfectly present summers in the City when the heat becomes stifling, oxygen feels slimy, and the brain starts hallucinating.

You can find more Predators of the Urban Sprawl on the Nursery’s YouTube channel and their website. Here’s a Behind the Scenes video created by The Nursery.

I also recommend The Nursery’s other animated web series: Flex n’ Zepher and President of the Future.
