Hausfrau: The Web Series is based on the one-woman comedy about the sublime ridiculousness that is being a stay-at-home parent. Embracing the DIY scrappy-style of an early 2000s mommy vlog, this newest version of the Hausfrau harkens back to the original zine, written and illustrated by Nicole Chaison, focusing on misadventure mama stories and hand-drawn (now-animated) cartoons.
