dotBoom is a web-based puppet show about dotBoom, a website development firm in Toronto, Ontario. dotBoom the show is all laughs and honey because the company isn't: that it's successful is in spite of the inept management team, not because of it. dotBoom is, for the most part, about the creative department, whose members are smart, talented, and want to go home.
dotBoom is a foul-mouthed sitcom of the workplace type. Each episode is about 30 minutes long, and there are no commercials, because dotBoom hates advertisements.
We are aware that we're in advertising. We hate ourselves, too.
But dotBoom will love you, if you watch.
