Shows§
Electronic Game Information | Robby Rackleff, 2018-
A show about video games.
Infomercials | Adult Swim, 2013-
Originally mock infomercials about fake products or services, though some of the later episodes evolved into more advanced unfiction. Some episodes on YouTube.
On Cinema At The Cinema | Tim Heidecker & Gregg Turkington 📚, 2012-
A movie review web podcast that deteriorates into… something else. I might call it a performance art soap opera? It’s hilarious.
Miniseries (???)§
Angel Hare | TheEastPatch, 2022
Found-footage horror, but in reverse. With the exception of some hammy captions, this is a mastercraft. It looks like they’ve kept the story going but I’m specifically recommending “Season 1” (through Tape 6) as the main experience.
Petscop | Tony Domenico, 2017-2019
An unfiction series about a boy LPing a lost playstation game. Themes of child abuse and a murder mystery.
alantutorial | Alan Resnick 📚, 2011-2014
An unfiction series about a man who makes video tutorials for the internet.
Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared | This Is It Collective, 2011-
Fantastic children’s educational horror. I’m including both the youtube series and the channel 4 full-length series in this recommendation. Also, I recommend Patricia Taxxon’s analysis here.
Daily Life Hack with Carole Anne | joe o, 2015
Sex House | The Onion, 2012
A sexy reality show loses the plot. Parody.
LOCAL58TV | Kris Straub, 2017-
Analog horror. Contingency is top tier.
