"Ever get the feeling that the world as we know it is essentially a very poorly run corporation? That God may be making it up as he goes along? That he is more than a little incompetent at his job as the universe’s acting CEO? If so, you’ve got company – that’s the premise behind Brian Keith Dalton’s hilarious religious satire, Mr. Deity, which just concluded its second season this March. Each season of the series, produced by Lazy Eye Pictures, consists of ten 2-4 minute episodes which initially premiered on YouTube but has since migrated to Sony’s Crackle.com."
