There's a baby doing Abbott and Costello this week on Vimeo, the underrated video site for the artsy crowd. Top videos also include the usual stop-motion, timelapse, and such, which let's be honest is always fun the way Twinkies are always tasty. (As usual, this week YouTube's top videos sucked.) Here are the best six videos.

Quarterlife already moving to Bravo

The most cloying little web show about disaffected Gen-Yers is moving to Bravo after last night's disappointing premiere on NBC (previously reported by Gawker). Kind of like that slut Lisa! Ha ha, I'm kidding, I've only seen one episode and have no idea what the character arcs are. NewTeeVee, the blog that apparently just broke this news, insists this just because quarterlife didn't make the jump to TV doesn't mean other web shows can't. In fact the very funny web show Jake and Amir has already been signed by MTV. See, the trick all along was to find good web shows! After the jump, a recent Jake and Amir episode, just to prove it. UPDATE: The MTV rumor was wrong and the Internet is still doomed. But there's still a clip after the jump. A clip you won't be seeing on MTV.
