If you've had your fill dumb skateboarding accidents and loneygirl15, check out a new animated sci fi series on YouTube called Afterworld. It's made by a team of A-list Hollywood and broadcast TV people, and appears in weekly installments (there've been 10 so far).

The animation is quite basic, mimicking a graphic novel as people stay static backgrounds move against them. But it's a natty little story about a guy who travels to New York, only to find the city mysteriously deserted (yes, there is a bit of a Lost vibe).

Sony Pictures International TV has just bought the rights, and is shopping the series around mobile phone companies, amongst others, so make sure you catch it free on YouTube before Afterworld moves to cellular and your friendly phone company puts it on pay-per-view.
