Doug Bresler has animated dozens of shorts for the Eli’s Dirty Jokes series, which has become quite the hit over at YouTube. He recently released a new short on his own YouTube channel titled Jonathan Katz – Holding for Miss Kiley. As you might expect, the concept was created by Jonathan Katz, the comedian/actor (and sometimes writer) from Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist.
Doug Bressler, one-man band behind Doogtoons, has launched another collaboration with online comedy team Ask a Ninja. Over the last year of so, Bressler has released a handful of shorts featuring the Ninja, and now he’s sharing A Very Ninja Christmas – Part 1 (Flash segments start about 1 minute in). We learn how much of the North Pole (or ‘Black Pole’) are actually all ninjas – including the paindeer.

Weird Al’s Childhood
Late last year, Doug Bresler, the creator of Doogtoons and Nick and Haig, animated an interview with “Weird Al” Yankovic. The two have reunited for a second animated project – this time on a music video. Bresler animated and directed an 11-minute parody of R. Kelly’s ‘hip-hopera’ saga Trapped in the Closet. The track is called Trapped In The Drive-Thru and it’s off Yankovic’s latest release Straight Outta Lynwood, his most successful chart album in the U.S.
