Those Things You do at Depressing Times: My Drunk Kitchen

Props to whoever did this crude, but content accurate pic.  http://hartoandco.com/logo-submissions.html.  
I think we've all been there.  For some reason, something, somewhere, is messing you up.  I'm not sure if that thing is making you frustrated or if it is making you so depressed you're nearly sobbing.  Really, for the purposes of this post, it doesn't matter.  I give to you, My Drunk Kitchen.

Hannah Hart (see http://hartoandco.com) is the creator, writer, editor, and all around mastermind behind the show.  While I would say it is still in its infancy at 9 episodes, this is possibly one of the best, most creative video series to be had on the internet.  

Brought to my attention by Time Magazine, I spent a late night in bed watching every episode in succession and laughing. my face off.  Not only is the premise a good start for entertainment, the resulting scenarios are genuinely funny and charming.

There's something appealing to me about a person who creates something as inventive as My Drunk Kitchen.  Especially considering that every step of the production process is handled by Ms. Hart alone.  It's creative and, for the most part, the quality is more than acceptable given the circumstances.

I highly recommend at least watching a few episodes.  They're not long (about 6 minutes each).  So the next time you're stressing out about an exam, money, or a law review article that needs to be written in two weeks, turn on My Drunk Kitchen.

  2. i think ryan north's brain and hannah hart's brain got together for a night of drunken philosophical dinosaur love which resulted in a brain baby that somehow ended up in your skull. Just a theory.
