All Prime Time

These five shows topped all others at our last screening. If they continue to wow the audience, they'll stay here; if not, they'll be cancelled. But for now, they reign supreme.

The Defenders of Stan

Created by Austin Bragg, Hunter Christy

Super-powered heroes unite to defend humanity - in this case, one guy. "Defenders of Stan" reclaims number one for like the tenth time this month...do we really have to count? Let's just enjoy.

First screened: 2006-08-28 at Anthology Film Archives

Mister Glasses

Created by Mitch Magee

Gorgeous black and white photography, a character obsessed with modernist architecture...what's not to like? In July, Mister Glasses fell to number 2 in its perpetual joust with "Defenders of Stan".

The Outer Boroughs

Majestic Dragon

This Victor Vazquez/Jordan Fish collaboration continues its formal experimentation, adding a show within a show that includes live action footage. It just made the cut in July, eking out a Prime Time slot by a single vote.
