Shira Lazar interviewed Daneboe, creator of Annoying Orange. She even has her face placed on an orange, which is totally going beyond the realm of appropriate journalism. Then again, the new host of “Partners Project” has been a character on the show before (Peach).

Annoying Orange’s “Hey Apple” Creator
Meet Daneboe of Gagfilms, creator of the extremely popular “Annoying Orange” series. I interviewed him remotely in late 2007 for Metacafe Unfiltered, a short-lived “behind the scenes of popular creators.” Since he was in Florida, Freddy Nager suggested we do a homage to his popular “screaming eggs” video.
So when I saw his recent Superbowl video surging on YouTube, I went on a binge. Imagine me and my four kids laughing hysterically at the wonderfully sophomoric and simple concept: An orange annoys fellow fruits and vegetables, but always gets the last laugh when their rudeness is followed by their demise.
My favorite is episode three, featuring the Tomato that can’t be both a vegetable and a fruit.
Thanks to Dane for digging up the digital file, and allowing me to post it. 🙂
