Tag Archives: Portlandia

In season five of Portlandia, during the “Sea World” episode, there’s a sketch where Fred and Carrie take on the task of making a “good” conspiracy theory about the city’s mayor gain traction. It was my job to Photoshop Kyle Maclachlan’s face into Eugène Delacroix’s “La Liberté Guidant Le Peuple.”

I designed several covers for the faux Portland newspaper, “Bridgetown Weekly,” that appeared throughout Season 4 of Portlandia. The paper is featured most prominently in the “Late in Life Drug Use” episode during the sketch where Spyke (Armisen) and Iris (Brownstein) eat at a sub-par Thai restaurant that has mysteriously good reviews.
