I'm digging this series.
EDIT after review of episode:
Tell Frankie I love her...mandymorbid said:
Edit: OK, I know that's a little creepy, but she is really cute! I had mixed feelings about the show but I kept going back to see more of her and it's started to grow on me more, especially since the novelty of "OMG PORN STARS" has died down a bit and it's become more about watching people enjoying the game. (Which is odd because I know bugger-all about D&D and have never played it in my life...)
I'm really liking this show so far, but I especially liked this episode "Where isn't the princess?" "Never help us!" etc, also hacking off the goblins foot? Ha ha, he ain't walking on the ceiling any more...
Criticism: To satisfy my curiosity I wouldn't mind seeing what type of character each girl is playing. I'm pretty sure Frankie is a Rogue, KK is a barbarian and a Mandy is a cleric? Everyone else I haven't really been able to place.

A great way to start a new session. Also, great at the extended length, the more the better.
Anyway, I was wondering, if any of you from the show read the comments, if Zak's custom rules are viewable somewhere. Another thing I would like to see would be something similar to attachments with each episode perhaps showing off the map the players have, handouts or whatever else the players get to see. That little notebook looks pretty interesting.
Keep up the good work!

Don't understand purpose. Candid exposure of people contrary to tabletop gaming expectations? Attractive girls, counterculture chic - titillating audience, but otherwise just as exciting as sidelining any other D&D game.
Does this exist to entertain, or forward subculture propagation? Does neither successfully.
Don't think creators thought much before turning on new digital camera.
Weak delivery needs tightened production to realize latent potential. Show is broken, not bankrupt.

Wow, the energy level was off the chart this episode! Must be the mushrooms.
I enjoyed the inclusion of Justine. No offense to Sasha, but she didn't seem that into it. Justine is enthusiastic and instantly likeable.

Wow, this show has come a long way, the editing and sound is a lot better now. Entertaining episode.
I can see having to speak opposite will eventually end in violence - especially when trying to find out if you have just uncovered the secret entrance or possibly the secret exit!

I think you are missing the point imo.II2 said:
The subject is D&D, the hook is attractive women, but the main point is you add these two together and you have yourself one heck of a campaign.
It's irony and sarcasm at its best.
The stereotype for D&D is nerdy boys playing D&D with soda pop and cheetos while the DM is making Boris Karloff impressions. I would never have imagined a womens (especially the ones playing in "I Hit It With My Axe") group to ever play D&D. The other stereotype is that pretty girls don't play D&D, much less know what a d20 is, or what the term DM means (etc, etc, etc). The breaking of these stereotype is great fun, and dare I say, genius.
There are other undertones of irony but I don't want to outline an essay with a thesis, supporting topic sentences, or a paragraph of opposition ^__^
I know the editing was not quite what it should be, but that goes with anything, and I mean anything you do for the first time. There are always the rough spots, but as I and other musicians say when practicing "I need to spend time to woodshed it," and once you have the rhythm and notes down it's all about "polishing it."
It's just great to watch these players rp their characters and try and outsmart the DM! All the while, creating interest in D&D. This is a win win for sure!
Frankie is very attractive. Shame I have no interest in having any kind of relationship with anyone at all ^_^ Not that it would matter even if I did. LOL
Just reading some of these comments got me to wondering. How did this all start I wonder. Did the girls play regularly or even at all before the idea for the videos? I doubt it but possible. Or was it all planned out and their just playing along with no genuine interest.
Not that it really matters as people will still watch and so long as they watch the videos will still get made. But I'm just curious as to which came first.

I beg to differ. Beautiful girls playing D&D and actually knowing what the hell they're doing is better. I'm sorry, but am I the only one who has a problem with how horribly this game is run? It's not D&D is some spastic distant cousin of D&D that WotC wouldn't acknowledge if they ran into it on the street. Seriously, the DM doesn't seem to know what he's doing, the players are COMPLETELY clueless. The only redeeming factor about this entire series was the backwards talking in this episode, and that even took them far too long to figure out.neuroman42 said:
I get that watching hot girls do nerdy things is awesome, but it's less awesome when they're doing it badly. In fact, it completely loses any semblance of awesome and just becomes annoying and very seriously stupid. I read these posts and thought that maybe the show got better, so I stuck with it, and my opinion remains unaltered. I'll be disappointed if another episode makes it. This series would be a steaming pile of shit, but it's not even fresh enough for the steam part. It's a stale pile of shit...
Comprehending social stereotypes non-issue. Been DM/Storyteller for 25+ years running. Familiar with the industry, its publications and patrons.EHCM said:
Irony and sarcasm, yes, but not noteworthy. Exercise in realizing obvious "opposite" anticipations.
Aware being a grumpy, critical cynic deprives me of the enjoyment, so good on them if they're having fun making their game video, but this doesn't fit my preferance.
