Since we know there's only so much Hulu you can keep watching, Bwog's enlisted comedy expert and television aficionado Rob Trump to guide us through the wonderful world of web series. First up: The Burg.

The Burg's most recent short, "Jump," [Sorry, we would embed video, but it's not working -- Ed.] opens with a cheap jab: "Have you guys seen this new 'Hipster Olympics' video?" gushes Ryan, the preppie-out-of-water, "They make all these jokes... like hipsters wearing tight jeans. It's so true!" Cue Xander: "I couldn't get through that shit." And uber-hip Jed: "I don't watch things with the word 'hipster' in them."

Just like that, The Burg shows why it's so much funnier and smarter than all the other milquetoast hipster-satire out there. The show, a sitcom centered on five hipsters (well, four hipsters and Ryan) living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, doesn't just check off hipster stereotypes laundry-list style, it engages the truly hipper-than-thou persona of the main characters. There's Xander, the excitable film auteur whose dress style pushes the boundary between intentional and unintentional irony; Courtney, the morally indifferent aspiring actress; Spring, the righteously liberal activist of the group; and my favorite character, Jed, the sour know-it-all and bass player in the band Sea Monkey Do. They're all hipsters-- that's obvious enough -- but they have importantly differentiable personae and potentials for disparate storylines and conflicts, which the team behind the show exploits wonderfully.
