Seeking Top Web Video Creators
August 26, 2008 1:02 PM
Who are the top Web video creators? Tell us!
We are working on a feature story for mid-September listing and profiling the top Web video creators. We want to focus on creators, on-air and behind the scenes, for scripted entertainment content. Who is the best? Who should be on this list? Tell us what you think? Write in with a comment.
NOTE: Please submit your comment once only. If they contain URLs, they need to be approved, which may take a little time. But submitting them half a dozen times does not speed up the process.

Comments (191)
My vote is for Generate (www.generatela.com) who just launched "Republicrats" for MSN and will be releasing the second season of Pink: The Series in mid-September. They have a series of Web shows they will be releasing throughout the year as well.

There are a lot of name talent flooding the online market right now, but few are actually doing programming that take advantage of the web (it's most just "TV delivered online"), which is fine but it's nice to see people with vision for where this whole thing is headed...
A few options:
Brent Friedman: Afterworld/Gemini Division
Big Fantastic: Prom Queen & Others
Greg Goodfried & Miles Beckett: EQAL/LG15
Justine Bateman: FM78/Candy, Inc.
Felicia Day: The Guild/Dr. Horrible

I really enjoyed John Herman's Gravityland production! (www.gravityland.com)
Posted by Peter Blake | August 26, 2008 2:01 PM
Definitely Joss Whedon & Co. for Dr. Horrible, though I'm sure you're already all over it.
Posted by Jessica | August 26, 2008 2:03 PM
I'll second Alec's picks from above.
I'd add:
Sandeep Parikh (Atom's The Legend of Neil)
Illeana Douglas (Easy To Assemble; Illeanarama)
Andrew Miller (Imaginary Bitches)
Marshall Herskovitz (quarterlife)
Jesse Cowell (Drawn By Pain)

Let's Knit2gether is the top knitting video show on the internet. Our current episode happens to be a documentary style field trip, but all of our regular episodes are scripted. We've been doing the show for about two years now and are well recognized in the knitting community. We'd love to talk with you.

I am very partial to John Herman's Gravityland. Very webisodic.
Posted by chuck galle | August 26, 2008 3:48 PM
Thanks for researching this. There are many independent creators who are doing amazing work across many genres.
Brian Conley, Alive in Baghdad has real people on the ground in Iraq telling real stories.
Rupert Howe, Twittervlog has pushed the space with his mobile phone videos that cross the UK, Canada, and the US, with his passionate, entertaining perspective on life's moments of both frustration and serendipity.
Our show, Beach Walks with Rox, has had over 2 million downloads and helps people chill out in over 90 countries, coming from the beautiful beaches of Hawaii - sometimes serious, sometimes frivolous, always Aloha!
Posted by Roxanne Darling | August 26, 2008 3:52 PM
I vote for Geek TV, Jay Grandin, EPIC-FU, The Underminer (Mike Albo), The Onion, Oren Film (Miriam & Shoshana) and Poykpac for Hipster Olympics.

Captain Blasto is awesome, comic book genre, funny as all heck, great acting and awesome directing and editing! The Absolute Best on the WEB!!!
Posted by Nicole Wootton | August 26, 2008 4:03 PM
no mention of www.Breakaleg.tv? That's a travesty. Easily the best show on the Internet. Totally ignore the fact that I'm a member of the cast.
Posted by drew lanning | August 26, 2008 4:19 PM
Definitely check out Unleashed (http://www.unleashed.tv), one of the more solid and long-running episodic shows out there. Trust me, if it wasn't such an uproariously funny animated show about struggling animal actors in Hollywood, there's no way we'd spend so much time working on it.
Sadly, we can't yet claim to be well recognized in the knitting community, but we're working on it.
--Ben
Posted by Ben | August 26, 2008 4:22 PM
Check out Break A Leg. It's funny, it's irreverent, it's ridiculous, it's awesome, and it's put together with practically no budget. They do some pretty amazing stuff for a group of guys with hardly any connections.
Posted by Chad Yarish | August 26, 2008 4:24 PM
Man, gotta go with Break a Leg (breakaleg.tv). I don't watch other Web TV shows, but I do love that one.

I waited every week for the episode. I stalked the site, it is awesome. Season II is coming!
Posted by B e Spielvogel | August 26, 2008 7:46 PM
Without a doubt, my vote is for Break a Leg. These fantastic guys and gals create consistently hilarious content that has gathered them a devoted flock of followers.
The plot is intense and surprising, the writing is sharp and subtle, and the acting is brilliant. I have run out of adjectives.
Check out their site at breakaleg.tv!

Definitely Break A Leg. These guys are amazing and the show is insanely funny. Monday is now my favorite day of the week :)

Break a Leg. Hilarious. Wonderful actors. I Love 'em!
Posted by Lizzie | August 27, 2008 4:20 AM
About the only video I actually make time to watch (Rather than squeezing in in-between other things or using as background noise) is Something To Be Desired at http://www.stbd.tv

Justin Kownacki's "Something To Be Desired".

Captain Blasto for me
Posted by Kenneth G | August 27, 2008 6:35 AM
It has to be Break a Leg! (www.breakaleg.tv) The writing is the best I've seen since "Arrested Development" (which is saying something), the actors are all perfect for the respective crazy parts, and the editing is really top notch for a bunch of people on no budget. If all of that is not enough for you, it's a show about making a show. People always say "write what you know," and since they write about making a show, that must mean they know about what they're doing! So check 'em out!
Posted by Kevin | August 27, 2008 7:29 AM
Break a Leg (breakaleg.tv) is undoubtedly the best show on the internet.
Posted by Margaret | August 27, 2008 7:55 AM
I agree that you should include Something To Be Desired, as the longest-running web sitcom. It's also damn funny.
I see a lot of votes for Captain Blasto, but I haven't yet seen the show. I'll be sure to check it out now.
Posted by John R. Carman | August 27, 2008 7:56 AM
Have to go with Break-A-leg, They have had new content ever week for at least the last 6 months, and its always really funny. The last month or so with everybody coming back together has been at the top of their game. For a team completely independent of Hollywood they run it very professionally.
Posted by Kaitlin | August 27, 2008 7:58 AM
For my money it's definitely Life from the Inside! A fully independent online sitcom.
www.lifefromtheinside.com
And also Break a Leg. A great show!
Posted by Robb | August 27, 2008 8:08 AM
I just adore Cube News 1/The Adventures of Cubegirl. It's clever and silly and pithy. And the actress is adorable.
Posted by Nan Gilbert | August 27, 2008 8:42 AM
I say Cube News 1 (http://www.cubenews1.com) and
The Adventures of Cubegirl (http://www.cubenews1.com/the-adventures-of-cubegirl/).
Hilarious 'advice' videos about surviving corporate life (Cube News 1) and totally love the superhero-sitcom spin off show Cubegirl. A superhero who can shut raging bosses down is what the world needs.
Posted by Carrie | August 27, 2008 8:54 AM
I choose, Something to be Desired, STBD! I think it has a great thing that keeps it going and the viewers keep coming back.

I would have to pick LonesomeLosers by COS. Two guys who give romance advice gathered from reading through a box of old romance found in a basement. Now mind you, neither of them has a love life....
It is alot of fun.
Posted by Melissa Tackett | August 27, 2008 9:34 AM
My votes in for Cube News 1 . This show is funny and informative. Just when you think your alone in your cube nightmares, Cube Girl is there to cheer you up.

Exceptional.
Posted by Jan / The Faux Press | August 27, 2008 10:31 AM
I vote for Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl. I've been watching these episodes for a while now and still love them. The host/superhero is very endearing and her stories hit the nail right on the head. I go through this at work (as I sit in my scary cube now) and love to see someone else's take on the hostile cube environment. Pick Cube News, Pick Cube News!!
Posted by afropuffgirl | August 27, 2008 10:33 AM
Bunch of options to choose from, but I'm partial to Cube News 1/The Adventures of Cubegirl as well.
Although I'm surprised that nobody's mentioned The Guild yet. Awsome webshow about WOW (World of Warcraft) that's funny at all the right spots.
Posted by LolaRay | August 27, 2008 10:43 AM
I definitely recommend Cubegirl:

Posted by Mark S. | August 27, 2008 10:53 AM
"Life on the Inside" is always clever and often laugh-out-loud funny, better than most of the lame comedies on commercial TV. It has my vote.
Posted by Bernie Altman | August 27, 2008 11:08 AM
"Life From The Inside" definitely should be checked out! Very clever writing, great cast, most episodes are better than any of the lame sitcoms on TV.

Not to sound like a broken record, but "Life From the Inside" is definitely a contender. I can watch some of those episodes multiple times and laugh as much as I did the first time around. It's got a very clever premise, and the original music is really sets the show apart.
And I keep meaning to check out Break A Leg, because I have heard great things.
Posted by Lauren C | August 27, 2008 11:38 AM
I recommend Kim from Cube News. She's funny and creates videos that people can relate to.

CubeNews1.com
Posted by Chestnatto | August 27, 2008 11:46 AM
I think that Cubenews1, "The Adventures of Cubegirl" ,is one of the webs' best kept secrets. The show is aimed at cubicle workers or anybody who works for somebody. It's really funny with a bottom line honesty about working in corporate America.
Posted by Robert C | August 27, 2008 11:47 AM
Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl (www.CubeNews1.com)
Absolutely hysterical!
Posted by Rebecca | August 27, 2008 11:48 AM
The BEST show on the net is:
Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl?
(CubeNews1.com)
The episodes are funny, well presented, nicely acted, and a big big hit around our office.
Posted by Jill | August 27, 2008 11:48 AM
The Creators of LIFE FROM THE INSIDE are definitely worthy of topping to your list! They produce a great show that has hilarious characters, smart writing, clever storylines and worth repeat-viewing!
They get my vote for Best in Show because not only is the show hilarious, but their on-air and behind the scenes clips, and daily blog are really entertaining.
Check out: www.lifefromtheinside.com and I'll think you'll agree! Thx

Kim is awesome!!
Posted by Dave | August 27, 2008 11:57 AM
The Best in Show should go to "Life From the Inside." Its really funny and pretty unique. The characters are engaging and the premise of the show is clever. I hope it wins - it should!!
Posted by Jerusha | August 27, 2008 11:59 AM
The show I'd have to suggest would be Cube News 1, The Adventures of Cubegirl. It's a bit of Dilbert, meets Supergirl, meets Dr. Phil of the corporate sector. Outright funny, and original. It can be seen at CubeNews1.com
Posted by Jermaine | August 27, 2008 12:07 PM
Here's another Kim from Cube News 1 fan. She's very funny with a really unique spin. Check her out: www.cubenews1.com

Posted by KeyeNews | August 27, 2008 12:10 PM
Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl?
I think that the shows are funny and helpful. I love watching them. They are fun to watch and enjoyable. I like the originality of the show and the consistency. It is great how the show relates to real life problems and how to fix them.
I think that CubeNew should be picked.

Cube News 1 is very funny. Not to mention thats she is very attractive and a crime fighter.
(http://www.cubenews1.com)
Posted by mikeeyo | August 27, 2008 12:52 PM
You really should take a look at Cube News 1:The Adventures of Cubegirl at CubeNews1.com
The show is workplace witty corporate comedy at its best. Kim produces an everyman's POV on stuff that goes on inside cubeworld and outside company policy all around the country. Sometimes I could swear she's writing about what I have observed, or at least heard about in my very own 45-story cube nation - even searched our company directory for her but sadly, no.
My only complaint is that there's not a new CubeNews waiting to be watched with morning coffee each day.
Posted by Colin McAdams | August 27, 2008 12:59 PM

I'm a huge fan of Cube News 1 (and The Adventures of Cubegirl) http://www.CubeNews1.com
It's not a news show, but a satirical editorial look at the intricacies of getting along in an office setting (aka Cube Farm).
The host, Kim, is clever, snarky, and pretty as a peach. Her spirited witticisms and feisty approach to common sense advice is a riot to watch.
The format usually has Kim answering a question that has been emailed from viewers. The answers can get hilariously off track, as the questions remind her of experiences in her own office.

Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl (CubeNews1.com)
She is hilarious and insightful and exposes all of those issues everyone is always afraid to talk about at the office, but really should.
Posted by Pangolin | August 27, 2008 2:01 PM
You guys gotta check out Kim at www.CubeNews1.com. When I she that she's posted a new vid, I skip all the others and check her's out because I know that no matter what's going on, I'll be laughing and feeling better afterwards. She's my she-ro :D
Posted by Robert697 | August 27, 2008 2:09 PM
I'd have to recommend CubeNews1 simply because it is AWESOME. Kim, who does the show, is so talented and good at what she does. You are guaranteed to laugh when watching her videos. Her channel is probably my favorite YouTube channels I know of. So check out http://www.cubenews1.com if you're looking to smile.
Posted by Jackie | August 27, 2008 2:17 PM
I'm not sure what Kim does exactly. She works at the cube farm. I don't think they grow cubes, but Kim works over there, so it must be a moderately cool place to be. It is a big offic in a big old building.
I have not read the funnies in a while, but she reminds me of "Kathy" but adds her super special personality to the mix. She's a woman of action and folksy wisdom like the characters in the "9 to 5" movie. But she is kind of "voluptuous" too. I could see her in an office based sitcom. She is very bright and "out there" battling against the hierarchical office of evil indifference. Maybe she is like and office Joan of Arc. She is shapely and cute, with comically righteous indignation. As Cube girl she is mild mannered, but as "Cube Woman" she totally whoops and conquers cubed indifference. I could see her as an office dominatrix. I guess i just like the red mask and leotard.

Posted by Jennifer Callahan | August 27, 2008 3:16 PM
I see there are a lot of posts here about Cube News. That show sucks to the third power. What's worse, that obnoxious woman clearly asked people to post on this site. Here's some news, if you want to garner an audience, you should do so honestly. After all, isn't the press supposed to have integrity?
Thank you.

I highly suggest Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl which is viewed on YOUTUBE
(CubeNews1.com). A very rare informational yet comical and entertaining video's that always receives over 100's viewers everytime her video is posted. This sometimes even within a few days.Hard to beleive no one has yet snatch this up for major TV series besides having her own huge fan club already. Miss on the chance to promot this one would be like missing the welcome wagon for America Funniest Home Video(how many millions turn this show on for how many years?)

Jolene Sugarbaker has a cooking show and it should be called a Kooky show. So funny and original. She cooks from a trailer park and serves up some wild recipes,too. I think it's www.jolenestrailerpark.com
Posted by Ema Nichols | August 27, 2008 5:34 PM
Hands down...www.cubenews1.com!! I love this site since I happened upon it on youtube. I thought to myself, This girl (Kim) should be on SNL. She hits the nail on the head of an average day of work and makes sense out of non-sense!!
Posted by Tim | August 27, 2008 5:44 PM
LOL I love Jolene Sugarbaker too! The Trailer Park Queen--her YouTube channel is hilarious. I'm honestly surprised though that she doesn't have a show on Food Network or Comedy Central. I keep hoping!
I do have a question if somebody knows...is Jolene really a "he?" My friends and I have been trying to figure it out.
Posted by Ruby B. | August 27, 2008 5:45 PM
Hands Down: The adventures of Cube Girl; Cube News 1. CubeNew1.com. I happened upon it by accident one day while picking myself up off the floor after a grueling day at work. I figured there had to be something on office politics. Somebody out there that would blog or whatever. I laughed all night I swear. This video series has actually brought the coworkers closer together. She stands out. Not only with her looks and natural charm and talent; It just stands out. This is something that blows everyone out of the water when they see it. There is nothing like it. Please watch it and destress like I did and join in the fun! :) That girl is something else :)
Posted by Rebecca Johnson | August 27, 2008 5:54 PM
I vote for Cube Girl. Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl ( CubeNews1.com ). Kim is pretty, smart, and her comedy is super funny.
Posted by Allen Hong | August 27, 2008 6:00 PM
CubeGirl and the CubeFarm videos are a sure win. You can find Kim strut her stuff and her words of wisdom in her videos. Check them and her out at her website, http://www.CubeNews1.com, and on YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/cubefarm
Posted by AppleJax19562 | August 27, 2008 6:04 PM
I have two web shows that I find extremely funny and creative. One is Cubefarm with Cubegirl. Anyone who works in an office will really appreciate it. The other one is
Cute with Chris. It showcases the cuteness of many kittens and puppies and sometime veiwers. The humor can be a tad dark at times and it's definately not for kids. Both these shows can be found on youtube.com.
Posted by Patty Adams | August 27, 2008 6:18 PM
I recommend Cubenews .
It's like she's actually seen the people I have to work with.
Posted by Alex | August 27, 2008 6:52 PM
I'm split between Cubegirl and Capt. Blasto. Both very entertaining. Can I vote twice? :)
Posted by Gene | August 27, 2008 7:02 PM
My vote goes to the LFTI Team. Great FUN!!!

Posted by Darren Kurtz | August 27, 2008 7:40 PM
I have to vote for "Life From the Inside". It's one of the most original ideas and once you start watching you eagerly wait for the next episode! www.lifefromtheinside.com. They have a daily blog about the show too that is great fun.

Cubegirl Kim, ftw!

Life from the Inside has my vote. It's consistently funny and always enjoyable to watch.
Posted by Jim | August 27, 2008 11:26 PM
I'd like to suggest CubeNews1. com :) Kim is funny, original and a breath of fresh air!
Posted by Holly | August 27, 2008 11:32 PM
I nominate CubeNews1.com!! It's original, it's quite creative and filled with hilarious observations that I think everyone who spends 8 hours a day in a cube farm appreciate.
Posted by Malcolm | August 27, 2008 11:36 PM
I encourage you to check out CubeNews1.com A production of only two people, this site nevertheless contains some of the funniest and most original commentary about the modern office workplace that can be found on the Internet. Along with their website, they have thousands of loyal subscribers on YouTube.
Posted by Rob Anderson | August 27, 2008 11:39 PM

Thank you

You can't go wrong with Cube News 1 (CubeNews1.com). The Adventures of Cubegirl is absolutely on the mark every single time. Cubegirl handles office politics and corporate cloudheads like we only wish we could. Every office needs a hero like Cubegirl!

Came across this post with our series listed.
"Drawn by Pain" is a 2008 Webby winner with press ranging from Sirius radio to the New York Post IFC, and Media week. It features 15,000 frames of hand drawn animation mixed with live action all on an independent budget. We have tried our best to make something cinematic for the web (not comedy which is also wonderful) and invite you to decide for yourself if it belongs on the list.
Thanks much,
Jesse Cowell
Creator - Drawn by Pain

Cubegirl all the way!!
Posted by Stuart | August 28, 2008 2:44 AM
Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl (CubeNews1.com) is the funniest show ever. Everything she says is right on point.
Posted by Greg | August 28, 2008 5:12 AM
My vote is The Adventures of Cubegirl (CubeNews1.com). She is right on target.
Posted by Abije | August 28, 2008 6:08 AM
My vote is for Cube News 1 / The Adventures of Cubegirl? (CubeNews1 DOT com). Kim is the best!!

Posted by Paul Drinan | August 28, 2008 7:37 AM
Honestly, this is a little ridiculous...it's pretty apparent that all these recommendations for Cube News are as phony as Cube Girl's accent.
Sorry, TV Week...you asked for the best web shows, and instead you got the ones who are the most shameless self-promoters. Not exactly the same thing.
And just to stay on-topic - if you're thinking of writing this piece without Alive From Baghdad, you may as well not bother.
Posted by Spamhater | August 28, 2008 8:30 AM

I see people have already mentioned it, but Captain Blasto is the best thing I have seen on-line in quite a while!
Posted by Joe Randolph | August 28, 2008 9:07 AM
I would love to nominate the parodies done by Deven Green of Brenda Dickson's "Welcome to My Home" videos.
These are by far the funniest, most clever, and wittiest gems of comedy on Youtube.

I'd vote for Cube Girl by far,
http://www.youtube.com/cubefarm
In her southern bell sexy voice, she explains the trials and tribulations of the office cubicle world.
Enjoy!!!

I escaped the cube farm and i love to remember how lucky i am
Posted by ozarkette | August 28, 2008 12:04 PM
I started watching Kim cause she's hot, but when she started suggesting I do things that I'd already been considering like : spitting on co-workers who are always in my business, well it turned into a voice that seems to really understand. Oh, and she's still hot .
http://www.youtube.com/cubefarm
Posted by tommygu444 | August 28, 2008 12:34 PM
I also LOVE Deven Green's Brenda Dickson parodies.
www.youtube.com/neveded
And her turn as Betty Bowers, America's Best Christian, in a scripted "news" report is flawless:

Posted by June | August 28, 2008 1:22 PM
I see a lot of Joss Whedon's and Michael Herskowitz's thrown around here.
I hope you'll consider focusing on those whose entire body of work resides primarily online; the real pioneers of the medium.
"Beach walks with Rox" has about a billion episodes, each being able to connect well with the audience with Roxanne's positive-yet-not-too-pushy attitude and conversational presentation.
Jim Kirks' "Clip Show" is very well done and remains as one web series I have continued to look forward to since I began watching content online. There are so many of these Podcast About Podcasting shows but Kirks sets himself apart by consistently showing up with clever wit and personality.
I will bow to Joss Whedon for his originality and ability to generate a buzz around anything he touches. Herskowitz's "Quarterlife" however, while well done, looks as if he applied a quarter-mil budget to the play book of Justin Kownacki. Five years and a promised sixth season, his series "Something to be Desired" has been around since, if not before, all this web series fascination began. From what I know on the creation side, STBD is a one man band; written, directed, shot, and edited by Kownacki himself.
Posted by AndrewSmith | August 28, 2008 1:39 PM
My vote is for LIFE FROM THE INSIDE! It is a great show with fun characters and creative scripts. Katr Pictures is a wonderful team that produces an awesome show. Check them out at www.lifefromtheinside.com.
Posted by cbm | August 28, 2008 2:20 PM
www.breakaleg.tv!!!
Break is leg is hilarious, innovative and keeps getting better and better
The most ambitious internet tv show with no practically no budget(so I hear from the creators)
Watch "Drug Trip" to get a good idea of what they can do, but the rewards are in the continued viewing.
The Arrested Development of the internet---which might not bode well for it---but lets not let that be true!~
Posted by James | August 28, 2008 3:06 PM
Life from the Inside is well written, acted and shot. And, Captain Blasto is stylistic fun.
Posted by Vinny | August 28, 2008 4:28 PM
Jolene Sugarbaker rocks!
She is so awesome.
Posted by sponga | August 28, 2008 4:42 PM
Life from the Inside is clearly the best show on the internet. It takes a simple premise and contiually creates unique brand of comedey that is always hilarious. The characters are great and the acting superb. You got to watch it and you will be hooked.
Posted by john | August 28, 2008 6:00 PM
Simply put Life from the inside is great. There are some other great shows out there but this one is in a class by itself.
Posted by Jay | August 28, 2008 6:01 PM
Life from the Inside is in a class by itself. I love all the characters and the quality of the acting. Every episode is unique and you can't wait until the next one to see the crazy things that happen next. Definetly 4 stars
Posted by Ann | August 28, 2008 6:04 PM
I totally adore Kim from Cubefarm USA!!
She does commentary and a hero story that relates to a majority of today's careers: Cubicle life! The scripts are super witty and well performed. She's amazing!
I also adore The Guild - they have done excellent to parody most gamer's worlds.
Latest I'm Addicted to: What the Buck with Micheal Buckley. I had to have it...
Thanks!

The Lonesome Losers (www.thelonesomelosers.com) they've been featured on MySpace, FunnyorDie, Atom Films and won a bunch of awards.
Gotta love Book Trailers for being unique! www.youtube.com/booktrailers

I love this! I'm checking out a lot of these sites that I find in the comments!

I think Cube News 1 should be the top pick. It's very original, funny, and relevant to the times.
Posted by Skymouth | August 28, 2008 11:23 PM
Hands down, funniest creator out there: Deven Green. Her "Welcome to my Home" parodies and Betty Bowers vids are pure comic genius.
Send 'em to the Middle East and watch how quickly that whole region's problems are solved!

Man VS. - The comedy/action webseries that always gets me laughing. www.manvsfilms.com

Cubegirl of CubeNews1.com gets
one of my votes. I can totally

the usual list of canned story-
lines writers often do.
original, witty, sarcastic to
the nth level(almost british!)
Posted by Chris D | August 29, 2008 9:42 PM
I say Cube News 1 (http://www.cubenews1.com) and
The Adventures of Cubegirl (http://www.cubenews1.com/the-adventures-of-cubegirl/).
Hilarious 'advice' videos about surviving corporate life (Cube News 1) and totally love the superhero-sitcom spin off show Cubegirl. A superhero who can shut raging bosses down is what the world needs.

Break a Leg the best
Since 1993 Travolta Family Entertainment has presented the Golden Icon Awards highlighting top achievements in Entertainment, Fashion, and Leisure and the 2007-2008 awards include Internet-based series, acting, and writing to its program.

Never heard of this Cube Girl but she's got a ridiculous amount of comments. Smells like self promotion.
I've got to go with:
1. Dr. Horrible
2. The Guild
3. Captain Blasto
Posted by Ben | September 1, 2008 7:42 PM
Here are my personal favorites:
1) The Gnooze: http://www.youtube.com/user/gnooze
Being someone interested in current affairs, the Gnooze really throws a comedic twist at even the most mundane of stories. Simply brilliant!
2) HappySlip: http://www.youtube.com/user/HappySlip
HappySlip is a comedy that takes a light hearted look at everyday moments in life where almost all characters are played by one very talented actress.
3) Cube Girl: http://www.youtube.com/user/cubefarm
A witty social commentary on dilemmas encountered at the workplace. Cube girl never fails to bring a smile to my face.
4) Gradual Report: http://www.youtube.com/user/gradualreport
From a presenter who acts like Jim Carrey on drugs comes a well researched, unbiased and complete report on the utterly irrelevant! This is one of my top personal favorites. I put him last because it's ladies first :)
P.S. The more you turn off the T.V. the more you realize that good entertainment doesn't have to have big corporation backing. I don't watch T.V. anymore. Thanks for doing this story!
