You might have noticed that Babelgum looks a little different. We think you’ll like the changes we made to our appearance, but the improvements run deeper than cosmetics.
Firstly, we’ve added a new Animation channel. There you’ll find amazing works, including the hugely popular Dilbert and New Yorker cartoon series. From simple pencil drawings and paper cutouts to state-of the-art digital rendering, we built a shiny new home for all types of animation.
We’ve also made it easier to explore our vast collection of content, save multiple playlists and share your faves with friends.
Babelgum keeps expanding the boundaries of digital broadcasting with original series and exclusive material you won’t find everywhere else. That’s why we’ve also adopted a new motto: Watch What’s Next.
The Editors
In the short film, The Blindness of the Woods, Swedish writers and directors Martin Jaljen and Javier Lourence take us on a journey that explores loneliness, betrayal, and passion. They do so by dressing up actors in sock-puppet costumes that only the Swedish would dream up (no offense, it’s very creative). This film seems like a lovely story of longing and heartfelt desire, but trust me, there is more hardcore (or should I say “softcore”?) action than you can shake a twig at. If you need any other convincing, check out what the characters have to say for themselves, then see the film for yourself. (NSFW, especially if you work in a textile factory.)
These Woods are Cold and Lonely
by Blind Woman
Living in the woods is tough. Especially when it is cold all the time and things get pretty lonely up here. I manage to get by, though, collecting twigs and things to make soup, slowly crying myself to sleep at night, you know- the usual. It would be nice to find someone out there who gets me. Unfortunately, I am totally blind, so I don’t know how I’d meet someone. Especially up here in the woods living by myself. I’m starting to think that maybe I should do something with my hair, but it is just a bunch of yarn anyway.

He’s the UK’s best-loved “indie laureate”, a charismatic, enigmatic singer songwriter with a unique poetic voice: Peter Doherty recently released his solo album Grace/Wastelands, to widespread critical acclaim.
Broken Love Song is the second single from the album, and Peter chose to première it exclusively here on Babelgum. To accompany it, we also have a never before seen interview with the man himself, two live acoustic performances of Arcady and Lady Don’t Fall Backwards, and some highlights from Peter’s career to date.
