Adult Swim has been quietly airing this fake infomercial for “For-Profit Online University†all this week at 4am. FPOU is a one-off special from a conglomerate of former Onion writers called Wild Aggressive Dog, which is made up of Geoff Haggerty, Dan Klein, Matthew Klinman, Michael Pielocik, Chris Sartinsky, and Sam West. FPOU was written and directed by West, with some writing assistance from the other Wild Aggressive Dog writers, and it stars Nicole Byer, Nick Corirossi, and Brian Huskey, among others. The network has been airing faux-infomercial’s late at night, like Michael Ian Black’s series You’re Whole or Rob Huebel’s one-off Dragon Shumway knife infomercial, but FPOU is the best one yet.
