[swenson]

Yes, more Graham- and this time Kathleen is on there too! Awesome. I can't get enough of you guys, you want to start up several more shows?

Orakel der süßen Töpfe? wtf...

 

[Scrythe]

Ouch, I guess I need to stop playing Magic: The Gathering.

Hey wait a minute! What about Warhammer 40,000 players? That's not even ON the list!

Wow, I think I've contracted Nerd Flu with a slight case of Senioritis.

Great new series to look forward to, hopefully it will maintain enough news to be considered weekly rather than having to re-hash some older stories. Though I guess in a pinch you can take real news and make it gamer related.

Regardless, I did like the ENN episode, I look forward to seeing how it holds up over time.

 

[Glass_House]

Ahh good stuff. Finally news that tells us the important things instead of rambling on about politics and earthquakes.

 

[In Limbo]

A great take on The Onion, just don't reuse Monty Python (or any other) jokes. Your own stuff is good enough, the pop culture winks only detract from it. Looking forward to next week.

great first episode. kudos to you.

 

[kozmo]

Wow.
When I saw it on the video page I thought it was serious so I decided not to watch it (don't judge me)

Then I saw the commercial at the end of zero punctuation and realized it is just plain funny, just the way I like it (again don't judge me)

i watched it, and it's brilliant!

I liked the venn diagram. That is all I have to say.

Loved it. Now I have one more source of entertainment on wednesdays apart from Yahtzee's reviews. Looking forward to next week.

Awesome, from the idle conversation between the newscasters before and after to the deadpan delivery of the well written jokes. The opening graffic rocked too.

Having flashbacks to bagder badger badger now though...

I keep getting images of you being in saving private ryan except the nazis being the badgers. And it's B-day instead of d-day.

And in a related story british officials have objected to allegations that they drink tea.

Damn i have cats. stay back!

 

[Sibbo]

Kinda funny.

Were you aiming to come off like ONN?

ONN is hilarious, but the newscast format has been around for a while. Also, the stories here are real, with a bit of embellishment on the details.

And the Jerkcity reference is a win. HONK!

So wait that whole boob jiggling thing is real? Well the Japanese have weirded it up again.....

 

[justnotcricket]

That. Was. Awseome. I didn't know how much I missed a resplendent, logarithmic news source until I watched that. =D My to-watch list just got even longer!

 

[Versago]

Last night i wikipedia-ed ODST,
Today i woke up with a temerature, pale and achy skin and sore joints.
My God.. i should have watched the news sooner...

Oh, and im English and we DO drink tea - all of us.
Those who don't are either culled at birth or sent back to Germany where the Coffee loving genes come from.
