Imagine you had just produced a new web comedy series and weren’t allowed to show it on the biggest, most well known and well visited video aggregation site out there (yeah, that would be Youtube). Can you imagine what a pain in the ass it would be to get the good word out about your videos? It would suck.

That’s the situation Sandeep Parikh is in with his series the Legend of Neil. Viacom, owns Comedy Central which happens to be the production house behind Sandeep’s show (and maybe his site). And, in case you’ve been in a cave these past few months, Viacom is suing Youtube for some reason or another.

What’s a hard-luck video producer to do? Check out Sandeep’s solution:

So, he makes the best out of a bad situation and releases a promotional video for each one of his Legend of Neil episodes. I like that gumption – and yeah, I laughed at the ice-cream-sunday fake of 2 girls, 1-cup.

The Legend of Neil episode 5 is out now and it’s still making me laugh and anticipate Thursdays. You should check it out.
