Merry Christmas, friends! I first saw this very-apt-for-the-site bit of animation on December 27th of last year and have been saving it ever since to share with all of you today. It’s from a series of five short idents created by Matt Layzell, Bishoy Gendi, Michael Gendi, Jonathan Harris and Daniel Boyle of Treat Studios for E4, “to surprise people with something really anti-christmas, and transform something boring into something amazing.” All of them are fantastically bizarre and definitely worth a watch:
Oh, and a big thanks to both Harry Peppit and Sam Lillard who sent these our way via our suggestion box and Facebook wall this past September. Cheers, guys!

Do you watch Community? If you don’t, you really should check it out. A Joel McHale vehicle this is not. The real stars of the show are Donald Glover and Danny Pudi who play Troy and Abed, respectively. Their interactions have been at the heart of some of my favorite Community moments (especially their closing bits which always get me laughing). The recent Christmas episode was indicative of the overall quality of the show and, if you haven’t seen it already, you really should set aside some time to watch it. I’ve embedded the video right here, in this very post for your convenience, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
