The Line

WATCH THIS!

The Line, an online comedy series starring Bill Hader, Jason Sudeikis and more of our Saturday Night Live/comedy friends.

The guys came up with a perfect summertime premise: Hader plays a guy obsessed with a blockbuster film (the fictional FutureSpace) and arrives at the theater 11 days early to wait in line for it. State alum Joe Lo Truglio plays his sidekick, and Human Giant's Paul Scheer makes a funny appearance as "The Spoiler," a Big Gulp-slurping dude who lives for crushing nerds with movie spoilers.

According to the New York Times, Hader and SNL writer Simon Rich penned The Line during last year's writers' strike. It was filmed in Brooklyn this summer and financed by Broadway Video.

The seven-part series rolled out pretty quickly, and the whole thing is posted at Crackle.com
