DAMN, NEWS (letter)
That's David Wain & Amy Miles in the new episode of WAINY DAYS: "Rochelle" is a 2-part, rock opera.
Part 1 premieres today - Part 2 premieres tomorrow.
"Rocky Horror Wainy Show" !!
It's the 30th episode of one of the best comedy series inside your computer. Big thanks to David Wain for always delivering for his fans...and to Jon Stern - the producer of WAINY DAYS & everything else we love like HORRIBLE PEOPLE, CHILDREN's HOSPITAL n' more.
When we started WAINY DAYS, I promised David he could do the exact work he wanted - without any suits or execs in the way. This was the first time we ever even visited the set - as a going away present to Maria Diokno, one of our My Damn Channel originators.
When Maria & I got to the shoot, they cast us as extras seated right behind David & Michelle Federer (from Broadway's "Wicked"). Maria is an actress who's done this before - I'm horrible, but it's a thrill to be 'in' our longest-running series.

We started My Damn Channel in the wake of an earlier round of big corporate layoffs as traditional media tried to wrap its arms around the intense insurgency of online video.
Many major media companies took a shot at chasing YouTube's brass ring, but they couldn't ride their horses fast enough to get into the lead ahead of all the upstart brands racing onto the field.
We ran fast in our first year. Some of our best competitors like Super Deluxe didn't make it. We loved their work. We stayed determined to keep costs low, but still bring the best talent - treat them well - and let them deliver quality, original web video which is getting seen by an audience growing faster by the second.
In the past 24 hours, we've had the #1 video on all of YouTube - thanks to Big Fat Brain, creators of "You Suck at Photoshop" and their NEW web series, "Agency of Record."
This week, TIME Magazine honored us in their Top 10 Everything of 2008 - twice! They put YSAP in the Top 10 TV Episodes of the year next to Lost, Mad Men, 30 Rock & Colbert. And they honored Sir Harry Shearer for one of his Katie Couric Open-Mic Moments that we call "Found Objects."
Maria on our team just told me we passed 42 million total views yesterday.
This week, we added Suhaila Suhimi to lead the advertising team bringing more top brands in to sponsor all of our new programming.
Here's a list of what's NEW & what's coming for the year ahead with immeasurable thanks for every second you've stopped your world to take a look at www.MyDamnChannel.com:
Flight of the Conchords HBO premiere episode next week on My Damn Channel - 3 weeks before it airs on HBO !

Today we launched our new Flight of the Conchords channel as part of HBO’s Flight Lip Dub contest.
In anticipation for Season 2 of Flight of the Conchords, we made a MyDamnChannel Megamix of "Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenocerous". Check it out, the talent is bottomless…
Halloween marked the season 2 finale of YOU SUCK AT PHOTOSHOP.
Over 400,000 views so far - close to 1000 comments webwide debating the appearance of Dane Cook, whether Donnie is Dane, if both are dead, what David Cross has to do with the whole thing, and if YSAP is really gone (again?).
Feels like months since 10/31: we elected OBAMA - the economy turned the clocks back to 1933 - and Jetsons' flying cars still seem another thousand years away.
Fear not: the creators of YSAP open up a new chapter in the wonderful "WORLD of WEBNDER"
Adobe presents a BIG FAT BRAIN film
starring Troy Hitch & Matt Bledsoe
produced by Amy Austin
AGENCY OF RECORD is here
Prepare to SUCK first thing tomorrow morning. The Right Reverend Donnie Hoyle will be back & we'd be excommunicated for telling you one simple secret about what's in store.
YOU SUCK AT PHOTOSHOP #12 is coming
WAINY DAYS #23 is coming MONDAY.
It'll be called "WATER COOLER" starring the core cast of .... sewers:
DAVID, ZANDY HARTIG, A.D. MILES, & MATT BALLARD.

Don't take our word for it - the critics have spoken:
"'Horrible People' is the best episodic web series since 'Wainy Days.'" (Fay Vincent/LA Daily Times)
"I laughed so hard, I coughed up a lung." (Peter Criss/Comedy Weekly)
"I'm quitting my day job." (Robert Farrally/Farrally Brothers)
"The 'mother' character is so evil she makes Ann Coulter look like Bambi." (Hillary Clinton)
