And Now, Our Feature Presentation…

There are some opportunities you can’t pass up.

Recently, through mutual friends, we met J.D. Ryznar, writer/director of one of 2005’s most popular online comedy shorts: Yacht Rock.

For the uninitiated, Yacht Rock is probably the most successful "series" to date over at Channel101.com, which showcases comedy shorts developed by everyone from J.D. to Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg (check out "The 'Bu", an amazing parody of The O.C.) and features stars like Jack Black, Drew Carey, and Sarah Silverman. It has become somewhat of a showcase for young talent, with many of the writers, directors and actors of the shorts getting signed by major talent agencies. Channel101, along with sites like TheLonelyIsland.com, was a precursor to SNL's recent move into video shorts like Lettuce, Lazy Sunday, and Young Chuck Norris.

Channel101 also has a bit of a twist. Each month, a live screening is held in Hollywood where an audience votes on each video. The videos that receive enough votes are put into "Primetime", which means that more episodes are requested by Channel101 for production. Not enough votes, and a series is "Cancelled" and put into an archive for posterity. Yacht Rock is currently preparing its 7th installment for release this weekend.

With the pending retirement of Jeeves, we thought it would be cool to see if J.D. could come up with a funny idea for a comedy short about Jeeves’ departure.

He did. He really did. And heaven help us, we actually went ahead and had him write, direct, produce and star in it.

So with no further ado, we proudly present J.D.’s masterwork: Jeeves Leaves.
