For us that meant plenty of twists and turns, lots of romance, a little bit of humor and plenty of scares. […]Read On »

The thin line between the web and television is slowly going away, as the hilarious short-form comedy series CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL began as a web series and migrated over to Adult Swim.

It also allows them to […]Read On »
