Broadband TV network Heavy.com Tuesday unveiled a slate of seven on-demand comedy series, including "Gangster Nanny 911," "Tourettes Cowboy," and "Honey, I Killed the Geezer." The series consist of
three episodes, each of which is three-minutes long. Episodes--which Heavy.com calls "machinama"--are made using recorded gameplay from video games, overdubbed with new audio. "Gangster Nanny 911,"
for example, uses gameplay from Activision's "True Crime 2," while "Honey, I Killed The Geezer" uses gameplay videos from Atari's "Indigo Prophecy." To produce the episodes, Heavy.com entered into
promotional deals with the video game producers, all of whom have purchased ad space on Heavy.com. -- Shankar Gupta
