"9 AM Meeting" follows two unassuming office drones who are stuck in an early morning meeting that their boss may or may not have entirely forgotten. Unwilling to go back to work, the two are forced to make idle chatter to pass the time. These discussions quickly veer from the mundane to the absurd, and every flight of fancy is visualized via 9 AM Meeting's unique cartoon style. If The Office and Waiting for Godot had a baby, that baby's best friend might well be "9 AM Meeting". Read More

A Okay

Interests:

"A Okay" is a darkly funny and occasionally sweet look at the selfish nature of friendship: its gives and takes, fights and forgiveness. The pilot features beleaguered children’s television host Mike as he scrambles to save his ratings-challenged show, Veggie Ventures. His roommates Sam and MG, meanwhile, encounter ragers, suicide, and possible new love, all to find a dining room table. Life is weird, surprising, and usually a little screwed up, but in the end it’s all going to be A Okay. Read More

"Agent X" is a situation comedy set in an obscure branch for the British Secret Service. In fact, it is so obscure that it has been completely forgotten about. With no real missions and no real enemies, veteran agent Edwin and new recruit James find that they have far too much time on their hands and far too many ludicrous fake-missions. When you’re dodging your boss and work instead of dodging bullets, the mundane can become pretty interesting. Read More

The Bear and the Cloud are friends; then God shows up. In these misleadingly innocent shorts, Cloud’s faith and love are tested as God continues his reign of terror on the cuddliest of Cloud’s companions. If you took the Book of Job and added more cumulus and cactus companionship, it would be disturbing. So, instead, watch "The Bear, The Cloud, And God." Read More
