Husbands
(2011)

Who Knew It Only Takes Two Minutes?
Two or three minutes is the length of each 'Husbands' webisode. I was surprised to find myself both completely satiated yet yearning for more each week. Each webisode has a complete arc and includes a cliffhanger ending. You will laugh out loud, grin madly, and depress the play button again. Interestingly enough, you may never look at fish in quite the same manner.

Some will say the writers took a romantic comedy standard and and simply turned it on its head by casting two men in the leads. That is a simplistic view of the series. The 'Husbands' team delivers a full romp for the emotions in each webisode. Furthermore, the husbands themselves have a very palpable chemistry on the screen.

This series is incredibly innovative from its opening webisode to its format to its very public fund raising for a second series. However, this series is equally traditional with its fish out of water moments, an amusing yet exasperating best friend, and its allegiance to the guilds: screenwriter, actor, etc.

Whichever network finally writes the winning deal memo for 'Husbands' will ascend a rung on the evolutionary ladder of television.
