On October 1, 2008, Jardin announced the official debut of the web series SPAMasterpiece Theater—almost a month before the American release of John Hodgman's satirical almanac More Information Than You Require . Hodgman described it as "true tale[s] of romance, adventure, infamy, and low-cost prescription drugs, all culled from the reams of actual, unsolicited emails, received here by us and people like you -- what we call SPAM." [6] [7] [8] [9] The hosted series included dramatic readings by Hodgman in a parody of Masterpiece Theatre . [10] [11] In 2010, Boing Boing Video 's Jardin was picked as "Curator of the Month". She commended the series with "These were so much fun to put together." [5]
