My favorite new web series is a bunch of Photoshop lessons. No, really, funny ones, in which the teacher works out his frustrations at his marriage through angry software lessons. The script is clever ("we could use this tool to clean off some of the dirty shame and unfulfilled dreams") and makes some jokes only possible in (I can't believe I'm saying this) the medium of screencast comedy. Because the nerdy joke beneath this is that he's actually teaching Photoshop techniques. Below, watch the best episode.

There are five episodes so far, all on the site "My Damn Channel," a competitor to "Funny or Die" and Superdeluxe. Like "Funny or Die," which got attention for Will Ferrell's baby landlord sketch, "My Damn Channel" might get more attention thanks to this breakout show, which has gotten a couple million views on YouTube.
