abridged series 

An abridged series is an animation--typically a movie, tv show, or video game-- that is edited to be a shorter and fandubbed, usually for reasons of comedic parody. They are then usually posted on video websites, such as Youtube. The first and perhaps most popular example is the Yugioh: The Abridged Series which was created by LittleKurioh. Abridged series are sometimes created from collaborations, such as TeamFourStars which is doing an abridged series of DragonBallZ.

"Yugioh The Abridged Series is hillarious. It has terrific voice acting, writing, and editing."
"Adamwestlapdog made a funny abridged series on Zelda."
"NeighborhoodClucky's abridged movies awesome."

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series

A fanmade series of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime, reated by the user LittleKuriboh. It follows the American plotline (mostly), uses recurring jokes, and points out plotholes and times when the writers just weren't thinking. The series condenses a 20-minute-long episode into a fandubbed 4-to-10-minute video. The writing, mixing and voicing process is done completetly by LittleKuriboh (with his fiance (known as Safty) voicing a character every so often).

It is often shortened to The Abridged Series, Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged, and YGO:TAS. LittleKuriboh is also often shortened to LK.

The Abridged Series was originally posted on YouTube,com but the videos were removed after undue flagging. LittleKuriboh's account was frozen various times for unset periods, before the videos were finally banned, despite being protected by satire law.

The Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged Series is now shown on their separate site: yugiohtheabridged.com.
However there are still copies of the videos (and LittleKuriboh impostors who attempt their own Abridged Series) on YouTube.com.

Pegasus: I think Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series is simply faaaaaaaaaaaaaabulous!
Marik: Yes. It is very good. ...BINKY BOY!
