Escapist News Network: Nerd Flu

[Venatio]

ODST - Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, also known as Helljumpers.

... Crap, I am at risk from the nerd flu!

And of the news show itself, can certaintly use some use. It was more satire than comedy and quite frankly we get enough of the former on a regular basis. The funniest part was the DJ reference and the picture of the guy in a Pikachu outfit.

Cant wait to see some more!

Finally, some news I actually want to watch. Great work.

Hey if I know what ODST stands for but don't care, am I still at risk?

Only if you will play the game excessivley

Oh good, I'm safe then, because my Xbox red ringed a few weeks ago and their online repair service is so broken I can't even get it out the door. At this rate Reach will come out before I get it fixed, and by then they'll probably have a cure for nerd flu.

But there will probably also be at least 1337 new strains by then, and I probably just contracted it from making that horrible joke, oh well it had to be done. And this way, we may avoid the other annoying number joke, which would probably infect everyone within 5 miles of the internet.

Cool thing, I hope it'll stay on the air.
Too bad there's a typo in the German ODST subtitle, though. :-(
Die Idee war aber echt lustig!

Wow, I had no idea what to expect but I just loved this. Very funny and well executed; I've worked in television news studios less organized than that (though it helps that you're not a live program). It seems like a geekier Daily Show (though Graham is only half as smexy as John Stewart).

 

[Jandau]

Hats off, that was pretty damn good. If the quality doesn't drop, this is definately something to look forward to every week.

It was a bit slow going until it got to the nerd flu bit. after that was a grand old time.

*COUGH SPLUTTER* ORBITAL-DROP-SHOCK-TROOPER! *SPLUTTER BLARGH*

Now if you'll excuse me, i'll go organise my magic the gathering cards.

 

[Aptspire]

Oh, I know, it means "Orbital Drop Shock Troo"-CHOO!
...
F***...

 

[JDviewer]

I thought that this was really good. By the way was the guy who was playing with the six axis control Paul from Unskippable? This serie reminds me of the Onion News, which I also love.

 

[CosmicCommander]

Oh crap...

I guess I'll have to quarantine myself....

 

[MK Tha Rebel]

Wait, so now NOT ONLY do I get a new Nostalgia Critic (on www.thaguywiththeglasses.com ) and a new Zero Punctuation on Wednesdays, I ALSO get this?

Wednesdays just got a little more awesome.

Now, thanks to you, all of us are. Thanks a lot![/sarcasm]

In my opinion, this is better than the new Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live already (I don't think anything can top, "Janine, you're a slut!", unless you can get Dan Akroyd in on this show.). I will definitely keep watching this show.

 

[Britisheagle]

Fantastic! Nerd Flu, oh shit...

 

[Typhian]

This is a Score! I R0F1'd quite a bit.

 

[Le_Lisra]

A far superior beginning compared to the awful Apocalypse Lane.

 

[Jman1236]

Crap, I'm infected!

:Runs to shower turns to scoilding hot water:

AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! IT'S BURNS!!!!!

 

[webrunner]

Wow, didn't expect this.

Odd that it's up at the same time as Zero Punctuation though.

 

[Sarukin]

Nerd flu huh? good thing I immune to all manner of viruses! (and that I don't leave my house)

Team Ninja says they're are going to have the PS3's 'six-axis-thing' control breast jiggling? okay if thats true, someone really needs to stop these guys. pretty soon it will be controlled with the power of thought ^^

 

[WaderiAAA]

Man I laughed at the one in the couch playing wii!

 

[thenightgaunt]

Well done LRR. More classic comedy from my favorite group of canadians (aside from the Kids in the Hall guys. You want to beat them, you're going to need your own version of Buddy Cole).
