A Hidden World of Awesomeness

It's been a while since I've splattered the genius of Brad Neely on the site. So here we go. Go watch the rest of these when you get a chance.
Oh and! I guess he got picked up to make a TV show based on his weird world (the Prof. Bros., Babycakes, et al) called China, Illinois that's gonna run on Adult Swim, which gives me faith in humanity (sort of). I wonder how he's gonna do it without all the fucks and wiener drawings. I mean seriously, there's no PC way to say "Brain Fuckler".
