In the five-minute video, titled Daryl, Harmon plays a therapist who breaks into an apartment, takes his pants off, and then rubs his genitals on a baby doll. The sketch was posted on Harmon’s Web site Channel 101 with the logline: “Originally made with Showtime, Dan Harmon presents a groundbreaking new show about the darker side of therapy.” Harmon described the character as “a baby rapist with a heart of gold,” per E.W.

More details about the videos

Introducing the skit to camera, Harmon jokingly calls it “a little groundbreaking for normal people to handle – but maybe you’ll surprise me”. In Daryl, Harmon plays a therapist treating a new father. Harmon prescribes his client sleeping pills, before climbing through his window, taking down his pants, crawling on top of his client’s baby – represented by a plastic doll – and miming rubbing his genitals on or raping the baby, as the baby cries.

Later in the five-minute episode, Harmon’s character convinces another father that raping his baby will cure it of becoming a murderer. He caresses the naked doll, before taking off his pants and miming raping the baby on a couch. The skit ends with the promise that Harmon’s character will find more babies to molest.

Is that considered good TV nowadays? It's so disturbing. I'm glad I've gotten rid of the TV.
