Been meaning to recommend this show for a while now. Circledrawers is a pretty unique web series project, a collaboration between people in Iceland and New York. It centres on a group of angels, bumbling their way through life as they have to complete a list of 1571 tasks to enable them to be reborn as human. With incredibly high production values, and an intriguing take on the concept of the spirit world, this really is a great show, and deserves peoples' attention.

This week, I'm recommending Big Book of Lies. A show I stumbled across through blip (no surprise there), I was immediately sucked in by it's opening "This is literally the seventh time I've almost been killed", and carried along by the whimsical premise of the episode, which sees Andrew (the main character) negotiating the purchase of a burial plot for himself, as a real-estate investment.

As I mentioned the other day, one of the side benefits of producing Out of Office is that I have wound up taking a look at a whole bunch of different webseries. I've been trying to decide which show to recommend first, and in the end have opted for Jigsaw. A simple puppet show that has been going for quite some time now, I think it's a great example of what can be done with minimal budget.
