“It’s kinda like marrying a hamburger. You can hold off for a while but eventually you’re gonna eat it.”

You can convert?

Another ep from the backlog of Heather’s Vlog. This one is about two two ways you can become a vampire; you’re either born a vampire or you can convert.

Not the funniest episode of the few I’ve seen, but there’s still one or two big laughs. Still very much worth seeing.

Heather’s Vlog – [Episode 1]

http://liamshow.com Kelly’s friend Heather started a vlog to get the bloody truth out there about vampires…because she is one. Happy Friday the 13th!!!

“Yes, once and for all, vampires celebrate Christmas.”

Heather Begins…

This is the first episode of Heather’s Vlog and the second one I’ve seen, and it is already something of a guilty pleasure. I’m kinda embarrassed how much I like it. Unlike a lot of stuff I watch (web or TV) Heather and her Dad surprise me and actually make me laugh out loud.

In this introductory episode, Heather explains what her Vampire family does to celebrate Christmas, while Dad tries to watch the skating he TIVOed.

It’s charming and feels honest. It doesn’t feel like they are trying too hard. I’m not sure if it is improvised, semi-improvised, or scripted but the characters are more strongly drawn in a short time than most anything else out there. All without sacrificing the gags needed to make a short online comedy episode work. I wish I could strap Fred down and make him watch it until he gets it. And, yes I know, the guy’s name isn’t actually Fred.

In going back to find the start of this series, I figured a little more out about how it came to be. It is some sort of spin off from something called Kelly Shoes – that’s where the clips from the nano-second long opening is from. And after watching it for the tenth time, the line, “Kelly rocks” makes more sense. But I have no idea who or what this Kelly Shoes person or show is. Why is it presented as if we all know it? I can’t even find any videos of it on Youtube! (If you do, put your links in the comments section.)

Heather’s Vlog is my current favourite comedy web series, and one of my favourite shows, period. Get ready to see a lot more of them posted as I go through the back catalog!

So, would this the first web series spin off? And if not, what would? I have a vague idea that lonelygirl15 had some sort of spin off…

Heather’s Vlog: New Moon

Heather’s dad can’t wait to see New Moon. He also gives advice about how to deal with werewolves. Heather doesn’t seem impressed.

Youtube video diary comedy gold.

I stumbled on Heather’s Vlog completely by accident. I gotta tell you, this hysterical series could use a better title.

Cause this is a comedy vlog about a 16 year old vampire and her vampire Dad. Who, in this episode, happens to be obsessed with New Moon.

Once you figure that out (the blink and you missed it intro isn’t much of a help) the episode is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time. The Dad’s feeling of community with the porn-for-13-year-old-girls’ film New Moon, his advice for dealing with werewolves, and Heather’s perfect reactions make this a perfect storm of comedy for me.

Maybe I’m over-reacting because of the excitement of discovery. It’s the first perfect 5 I have personally awarded. I think it deserves it, and even more I want you to watch this one. And tell us if you agree with me by leaving a comment.
