In 2014, Vimeo announced that High Maintenance, a smoky web series regarded as one of the Internet’s best, would be the platform’s first ever original series. Vimeo agreed to finance six new episodes of High Maintenance and delivered on that promise a few months later.
Now, a year on from the start of its original programming experiment, Vimeo is taking a huge step forward. It has announced its first ever “slate” of originals, one that includes a new season of acclaimed indie series The Outs, a short film from Saturday Night Live cast member Aidy Bryant, and a stand-up special starring acerbic drag queen Bianca Del Rio.

While you were wetting your pants over the season finale of The Walking Dead or the Game of Thrones season premiere, loser, we were eagerly awaiting the final voyage of our loyal Brooklyn friends, and at long last, web series The Outs has premiered its final episode. The 43-minute affair (no commercials, this is the web, ya'll!) is the last stand for Jack (Adam Goldman), Mitchell (Hunter Canning), Oona (Sasha Winters), and the rest of our gang as they navigate a twisted mess of relationships, mistakes, and forgiveness. And if you're wondering why this all goes down around Chanukah, you can stop. There's no real reason for that. Nor is there a reason to feature guest star Alan Cumming, but I mean, it's not like you need one there. Watch the series finale of The Outs below:
