  1. Issa Rae produced and stars in the American comedic online series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl. On February 3, 2011, it debuted on a dedicated YouTube channel. The sitcom follows J as she interacts with coworkers and love partners who put her in awkward circumstances. J generally communicates how she thinks about her surroundings through a voice-over or a dream scene, therefore the story is delivered in the first person.


    Awkward Black Girl has been lauded by critics for its sharp comedy and distinct, genuine representation of African-American women. The play is described as "full of crisp, pointillist wit that's quite invigorating" by New York Times critic Jon Ceramica. In 2012, the series received a Shorty Award for Best Web Series.

  4. Jerry Seinfeld's online series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is directed and presented by comedian Jerry Seinfeld. On July 19, 2012, the series debuted on the digital network Crackle. It had been streamed approximately 100 million times as of May 2015. The series was transferred to Netflix in 2018 for the premiere of its ninth season. On July 19, 2019, the eleventh season premiered. Seinfeld has subsequently intimated that he may be through with the show.

    Seinfeld introduces a vintage automobile chosen for a guest comic in each episode, followed by a trip to a café or restaurant where they sip coffee. Episodes deviate from the structure on the spur of the moment, from unexpected pauses to interactions with members of the public. The format of the show revolves around the car drive and "Seinfeld believed that "when attempting to show the meandering, silly, and sometimes deep conversations that comedians share, you have to remove the audience to keep the participants from dropping into their acts," and that "part of what makes the show watchable is that it's always moving."

  9. Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is 2008 musical comedy-drama miniseries in three acts, produced exclusively for Internet distribution. Filmed and set in Los Angeles, the show tells the story of Dr. Horrible (played by Neil Patrick Harris), an aspiring supervillain; Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion), his superheroic nemesis; and Penny (Felicia Day), a charity worker and their shared love interest.


    Writer/director Joss Whedon, his brothers Zack Whedon (a television writer) and Jed Whedon (a composer), and writer/actress Maurissa Tancharoen collaborated on the series. During the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, the team composed the music. The plan was to develop something tiny and affordable, but properly done, that would avoid the concerns being raised throughout the strike. Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog consists of three acts of approximately 14 minutes each. They were first released online in July 2008 as individual episodes, with two-day intervals between each release.
