Fans of off-beat video comedy shows like The Office will love a new web-only series from TheWB.com my daughter turned me on to called Children's Hospital. There are 10 episodes, each about 5 minutes long, of this fairly explicit but hysterical farce of several existing TV hospital shows. You'll recognize several actors from existing TV shows (including The Office). It's not for everyone...more for those who like The Naked Gun or Hot Shots genre of movies. As usual, short-form comedy leads the way on the web. But most of all it's great to see television-level production qualities and actors involved in producing content for the web.
