We’re not sure what you do with your Saturdays, and frankly we don’t want to know. But at Tubefilter it means time to catch up on web series we fell behind on. (Yes, we do watch everything you send us.) This week we’re taking a look at five new web series that launched during the past week. And is it just us, or is summer becoming the web series busy season? Busy little interwebs…
From creator-star Kaily Smith, this dating comedy proves that even the uber-rich can strike out at love. Faced with losing her trust fund if she doesn’t find a man, Merri calls in all the help she can find to match her up. And for fun, throw in Tom Arnold as her borderline psychotic and ruthless billionaire father, some pool furniture friends and a whole host of celeb guest stars like Tony Hale, Ryan Eggold (90210) and David Weidoff (who also wrote the series).
Also new from Crackle this week is jock-fave Owen Benjamin’s new series All Stars, which takes his sports satire into the corporate softball leagues. Fresh off his March Madness stint with CBS Interactive’s Heckle U, this series is all Benjamin, as he both directed and wrote the series along with fellow Gaytown buddy Jess Shapiro. Brought along for the bro-fest are comedian Brody Stevens (The Hangover) and, why not, Heckle-U co-star Chris Wylde. Just goes to show that web series stars love keeping it in the family.
