If ever there were a hipster sitcom, you know it wouldn't air on regular tv. Hipsters are, like, totally against watching television, at least that's what they say under "tv interests" in their MySpace profiles. So this Sunday when the first "hipster-com", The Burg, airs - it'll be online (at TheBurg.tv). Above is a preview on YouTube.
The description on the site totally sold us:
The Burg: the hipster world capital where trust fund kids pretend to be starving artists, starving artists pretend to be able to live completely off of credit cards, and everybody pretends not to notice. Who says gentrification isn't funny?
The comedy troupe behind The Burg will also feature local bands on the show. We can't wait!

I thought the game was hipster/crazy...nonetheless this looks awesome.
nope, it's hipster/homeless... and i'm not so sure this looks awesome...
Eww.
making fun of hipsters is really getting old

I can!
No #4, what's actually getting old is the hipster "movement." I thought these douches would've outgrown this by now.
Amen, brother!
The hipster joke is about ten years old now, at least.
This whole city is getting old.
then move to philly, B-log
yeah, the kids should outgrow the hip hop "movement" any day now too, genius
obviously these people aren't familiar with british tv, where a certain sitcom about hipsters aired last year to much critical acclaim.
or they're totally familiar with british TV, which did all the work for them
It would have been funnier if hip or dangerous were decided solely based on race. Making fun of hipsters is old, but making fun of white people for their racism is classic.
Props to Opal Mehta for the best post/name sync.
nathan barley!! yeah. look it up on youtube. that's the name of the brit show that did the same. and it was genius.
nathan barley is pretty hilarious. i guess something good did come out of a post about hipsters
The last guy in the video with the long beard is Jimmy, who holds court at Mugs at Bedford and N10 almost daily. He runs a craft beer distributorship and is one of the least dangerous people I've ever met.
As long as "hipsters" exist, as is nauseatingly obvious in Williamsburg, making fun of them doesn't get old. I think I'll like this show.
As long as there are still hipsters that take themselves seriously, making fun of them will never get old!
Yeah, the hipster movement is like, older than me posting this blog a month after the last person.
But seriously, the fact that hipsters can make a show making fun of themselves as part of the hipster movement, is the most interesting fact about hipsters.
