02:17 Dogs are described as man’s best friend. But as the talking basset hound in this adorable spot demonstrates maybe it’s the other way around. Where would humans be without their dogs to help keep an eye on them? Ze Frank is the voice of the dog.

02:57 Ze Frank voices a cat who is writing a letter to a young kitten who has moved in with him. The cat talks to the adorable little kitten about the human larvae that smells like milk, introduces him to wet cat food, and warns him about the evil monster known as “vacoom.”

04:21 Welcome to science class — only it’s less boring and more SNL-inspired than usual, because Ze Frank is in charge giving us an owl reality check with all the facts you need to know about their sharp talons, vicious methods for killing, and infinite cuteness.

02:45 Ze Frank begins this video by showing off a bounty of jelly beans on the floor. They are numerical metaphors, representing the average American’s lifespan. Over the course of the video he details how the average person spends large chunks of their lives. A video that seems a little silly achieves profundity. Yes, we spend a lot of time doing things that are meaningless. But we have a choice about a good chunk of those jelly beans.

03:50 If you thought Sad Cat Diary was a tearjerker, wait until you hear the innermost thoughts of “dearest human’s” best friend. If your dog kept a diary, it would probably be a lot like this video from Ze Frank. What are the reasons for those sad eyes? Why are they burying their heads into their beds? So many questions left unanswered on a daily basis … until now.

03:21 Ze Frank records several depressed felines narrating the ‘misfortunes’ in their daily lives – telling tales of neglectful “authorities,” a world devoid of reason, and using vomiting as a form of protest. And it just gets more dramatic from there. Who knew that being a cat was this tough?
