Moldy Bagels: Episode 5 (Part One)



I don't know what to say, except that this episode is a complete disaster. As you'll soon see, it takes two bits, the news stories and me reading E-mails, and stretches both of them out to unforgivably interminable length. I spend literally 7 minutes total reading and responding to message. That's a third of the episode. That's awful.

The sitcom at the beginning with the stuffed animals was a sketch that I wrote a really long time ago. I never made it because I just couldn't ever get excited enough about the humor to actually go through the trouble of making it, but I went for it this time because I thought the stuffed animal angle would give it the right tone and approach to make it funny. I'm not sure it if turned out to be particularly successful, but I had more fun making that sketch than I have in a while. As a fun side note, on the final shot where I'm beating the shit out of the stuffed animal, I had a whole inch of plumber's crack visible, and I had to crop and zoom in the shot while editing significantly in order to get my exposed ass out of the shot.
