Perfect for: Bill Murray enthusiasts, or anyone lamenting the cancellation of The Knights of Prosperity.
Watercooler quote, sung to the tune of “Chopsticks”: “They’re the chopsticks I use / They’re the chopsticks I chose / I choose all my chop suey Chinese style!”

2. “Layers”
The premise: Nick Kroll plays Benji Lessman, a Hollywood agent to Hollywood agents. The Sklar brothers—Jason and Randy—are his preposterous publicists; they’ve scored him a Web series in the hope of attracting more clients.
Perfect for: Fans of the Sklars’ ESPN show Cheap Seats: Without Ron Parker.
Watercooler quote: “This is a copy of a copy of that fax.” “Good: E-mail it to me.”
(Premieres on Super Deluxe in mid-to-late September.)
3. “Window Seat”
The premise: The first episode in this series—animated in the style of airplane safety pamphlets—features Eugene Cordero as a freewheeling organ transplanter and Eric Scott as his skittish rowmate. Organs are explored; shenanigans ensue.
Perfect for: Those tired of Aqua Teen, looking for the next Adult Swim hit.
Watercooler quote: “But seriously! I bet these organs look crazy, yo!”
