10 Adult Swim Infomercials Better Than Too Many Cooks

9. Alpha Chow

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFL5u1X5Dew Tired of your dog being... a dog? Then Alpha Chow is for you. This one is another straightforward infomercial but with a twist akin to Captain America meets The Fly. Meets camp. Male stripper thong level camp. And dog puns overload! Make sure you don't miss the reference to 1930's European scientists to understand how deeply twisted this sketch really is. While it's not the first time man's best friend becomes less than friendly, this short is an original satire on how we tend to over-customize ourselves and our close ones to fit into artificial moulds. Consider fitness freaks, child beauty pageants and, more to the point, overly-cosmeticized pets. Don't be so naive to think that all these forced modifications won't backfire one day.

Adrian Serban lives in Bucharest, Romania where he has studied screenwriting and film criticism.

Monty Python and Doctor Who are two British institutions that changed his life for the better. Or so he thinks.
