So, I was browsing through my TweetDeck feeds lately and I came across someone who was recommending the newest Comedy Central original series, Digman!It's an adventure-comedy series centered around Rip Digman (a parody of Indiana Jones), an archeologist who becomes a washed-up has-been after one of his previous missions goes awry, resulting in the death of his wife. Twelve years later, he takes on a job as a teacher and his adventurous spark is reignited when one of his students pushes him into retrieving an ancient artifact. Comedy Central doesn't have the best reputation for animated originals outside of South Park, so it's refreshing to see an animated series on the network that doesn't look cheap, resemble a Family Guy clone, or rely on quickly dated political humor. The show does have one drawback, though: It's produced by The Lonely Island, so it has a lot of meta humor, and considering we now live in an age where Whedonesque writing is the norm, this show might not be everyone's cup of tea. I personally really dug it, though. Four episodes are up now on Comedy Central's website. Give it a try if you're interested. My personal rating is a 7/10.
