The beginning of something great. The full series, when eventually released, were amazing. Short songs were shown in full color, like "Pregnant Women Are Smug", the girls' awkward personality whimsies are fleshed out. Easily confused, the eventual show by the same name, but 8 episodes that were each almost 25 minutes each versus the 4 minutes here, made a significant difference. Released by The Independent Film Channel in 2014, but devastatingly only lasted one season until 2015, expands on the female answer to The Flight of the Conchords. While competitions to other stars might typically be avoided, in this case it is a compliment of the highest honor.
Digital shorts released by HBO, this 2012 series is an excellent demonstration of the power of more funding and artistic freedom to develop a promising concept. What was slightly quirky and cute, but lacking any lasting substance here becomes something great; two girls you will fall in love with. Watch this, but only as a prelude to the 2014 Garfunkel & Oates, starring the underappreciated Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci, members of the titular musical duo!
