ENN. It's a shame they stopped doing that, I found it funnier than Loading Ready Run or Unskippable
ENN is back, it's called Check Point [http://www.penny-arcade.com/patv/] and it's on Penny Arcade TV.
Well that sucks... I only use The Escapist and LRR's own site for my fill of comedy/gaming news and I'm not a big Penny Arcade fan so... screw checkpoint

Game Dogs, just becuase the rage would be hilarious. Of course I would regret it a day later, but man would that first day be funny as hell.
Oh god I remember that. Pages and pages of hate, yet it got renewed for season 2.

And it was still rubbish.
I never understood how it managed to be so shite when it was made by the same guys who created the fantastic Apocalypse Lane... well Papa Roach haven't made a good album since Infest so I guess it's somehow possible

I'd like ENN back, because then together with Checkpoint I'd get twice the snarky gaming news! (Also, it'd be kind of fun to have ENN be in the original dry humour Onion News Network style, and Checkpoint be the later Mock the Week style goofiness, both of which I enjoyed.)

Seriously, check it out. Make it your one exception. Just click this link [http://www.penny-arcade.com/patv/checkpoint/], and enjoy. It's still LRR, they're still doing their own unique brand of comedy, and the more people who watch it, the more chance it has of surviving long term. (Plus, if I understand how PATV works, the more people who watch it, the more money they get.)

I legitimately miss Game Dogs; it was really the only show that would routinely send me into fits of laughter (at least in the first season).
Just... undo that godawful last episode.
Somehow.
I was hoping one person would come in and say this. Personally I though the creature catcher master whatever could have been fun to watch only made it past three episodes had some sort of scheduling error and now they are gone. I guess by scheduling error they mean our show imploded.

Okay yeah, I watched the first two episodes and they were hilarious and if it helps them get money/support then my one exception it shall be!

Why Game Dog of course! (jk)

I miss Doraleous and Associates. I hope they will return soon.

Oh man either Doomsday Arcade or There Will Be Brawl.

Those were sooooo gooooooood!
Seriously anyone new reading this, look them up!
The first episodes of both are a bit slow but when it lifts off, it never comes down.

I never watched anything other than ZP, Extra Credits, The Big Picture and Escape To The Movies.
But I'd love to see Alt+Escape again. Why did they discontinue it?

Probably The Escapist Show, but that could be because I prepared for this thread to be about that. Doraleous was great, but it's only on hold.

Easy one. A Good Knight's Quest. I'm still hoping we'll get season 2 of that.. or even just something new from the same crew. Such a great show.

I miss Rebecca Mayes as well, but it really did seem like she was falling out of love with what she was doing with every episode prior to her departure so I wouldn't say I'd want to see her back. She wasn't really offering pointed commentary in song form anymore. It was getting more like "I Kind Of Hate Videogames: The Musical." I do hope she's found success elsewhere though.

I would also bring back the old UR on the Escapist. 'Twas a good show on here, says I. I'm aware that it still goes on at its regular site, but not as fast.

I can see no other possible outcome.
Yeah, that was great. I began to like it less and less as it went on, but it was still awesome even at it's lowest.

Good question, I loved Alt+Esc, it was great. Whatever.

Anyway, I personally would say There Will Be Brawl. Absolute favorite thing on the internet. Only I guess I don't want more, it wrapped up nicely and more would just be tacked on, but I wish I could experience it for the first time again.

There Will Be Brawl. Yes, it wrapped everything up nicely. I don't care; this was still one of the best things the Internet's given me.
