NewTeeVee names Compulsions as one of the 'Top 10 Professional Favorites from 2009'

Recently I’ve found out that we’ve made several notable Best of 09 Lists around the web. It’s quite an achievement to be even singled out as one of the top web shows of 09 on any list, but to make NewTeeVee’s Top 10 Professional Favorites from 2009 means a lot to us because especially given the amount of shows that they cover.

To be classified with the “professionally produced shows” (though I still feel we’re more indie as a whole) automatically put us up with some super high quality, well backed shows that have crossed over to today’s pop culture (Valemont, The Guild, and Auto Tune the News). Thus being in a “best of list” with shows like these is incredibly honoring and really helps to show how well our series has resonated with our audience. I personally love how Writer Liz Miller caught what our show was truly about with how she wrote that we focused “exclusively on exploring its internally twisted characters, brought to life by some of the best acting in web series last year.” (continue reading…)

Hey everyone!

First off I want to say THANK YOU to all of you who are watching the show. It doesn’t matter how good you make the show, if no one watches it, it might as well not exist. I also want to say THANK YOU to my amazing cast and crew (many of which are still putting the final polish on episodes 5-8) for our 2nd week run. I’ve heard a ton of personal praise, and even apparently have a personalized congrats video out there thanks to Sandra Payne and Kristyn Burtt of The Web Files (way to make a writer of such darkness shed a tear).  Anyway, I have to deflect a lot of the praise to my cast and crew, they were all spectacular in their own rights and all put in a ton of quality hard work into this show. With all the praise they deserve as much it as I’ve personally gotten. It’s truly satisfying as a creator to be able to watch the series and really enjoy what is happening on screen and that credit REALLY goes out to My Team.

More after the Jump!
