Video: Children`s Hospital Gives Everyone A Royal Shaft




FTW! Rob Corddry (Daily Show, Harold And Kumar Go To Guantanemo Bay) is the man behind this and what a great fackin promo! Apparently it's a take on
a British comedy series (yo Kinetic - I'm looking at you - you British loving bastard).

This looks like it's gonna be hella gouda but it seems The WB is intent on giving it's audience (and itself) the royal shaft. Children's Hospital is being produced as an original web series, broadcast online at The WB website. Ever go to The WB website? Neither did I, until I wanted to get more information on the series, and I was immediately greeted with this:
