Best TV On the Web: Wainy Days
Don’t know David Wain? Learn his name. He’s making some of the funnier–and oh-so-definitely not-safe-for-work–online videos on his weekly show, Wainy Days. It’s a "channel" on the Web site My Damn Channel.
I’d never heard of Wain until stumbling upon Wainy Days by accident, after following links for the Internet phenomenon called You Suck at Photoshop. In Wainy Days, Wain plays a fictionalized version of himself, constantly on the hunt for love. Or, just as often, sex. Non sequiturs and breaks with reality and the fourth wall are de rigueur. So is the recurring gag of pushing people down as they pass on the street.
A typical episode usually features Wain meeting a girl, getting the girl, and losing the girl in the most ridiculous way possible. For example, in "Dorvid Days," he runs off to LA to be with his online girlfriend Nora. She introduces him to her brother with "Stephen Hawking Disease." The brother gets lost and is mistaken for an ice cream cart by the ice cream guy. (Yeah, you read that right). Wain saves the brother. But the girl breaks up with Wain for the ice cream guy anyway.
And that’s a polite example, one of the few that doesn’t feature some over-the-top comedic violence, ridiculous sexual situations, and/or copious amounts of bodily fluids. (Did I mention it’s NSFW? Seriously. Even with no nudity.)
