I am going to go with ZP. It has brought the most people here. Now, I doubt people are going to up and leave if Yahtzee stops making videos, but a lot of people wouldn't be here if ZP didn't happen.

Long Answer:
I think The Escapist has enough good content that they would still stay afloat if they were to lose one show. Of course there are certain shows that would be missed more than others. Still the one I think would be missed is Zero Punctuation.

Short Answer: ZP.

If Unskipple leaves, people will be pissed and heads will roll
If Extra Credits leaves... at this point people will be disappointed, sorry just saying, but in the future. The sites user count will drop a huge chunk
If Zero Punctuation leaves the site will save a shit ton of money from the low bandwidth and not having to pay Yahtzee. So its the current leader in videos on this site
If MovieBob leaves then it will be the same as Yahtzee's apocoplypse

But of course everything is archived and nostalgia is one of mans friends and re watching episodes is always fun so apocalypses are avoidable.

Though I actually kinda like the Extra Credits better, Zero Punctuation is what got me here, and I'm pretty sure it is for a lot of people.

Unskippable is what brought me to this site. While i love that show I would have to say that ZP is the sites most valued show, followed by extra creds. loving top 5 aswell :)

This site would die without ZP, pretty much everyone around here knows that.
But I love almost all of the content, ZP and EC especially.

Oh wait...

OT: Probably ZP. It isn't my favorite anymore with the dawn of the Loading Ready Run era, but it seems to be the major draw for most to this site.

Zero Punctuation. Obviously.

As it's probably the single most biggest contributor for the site's growth.

Zero punctuation. I'm too lazy to check it up again, but I think I read on wikipedia that ZP increased The Escapist's traffic by 5000%.
Only??? Are you sure about your sources, cuz I'd say it's more like 50'000%...

Gota be ZP, id go out on a limb and say it pulls in the most veiwer's per week, even though Extra Credits is very good, i dont think it has the same fan base.

I hate to say it, but as much as I love the programming that has been added since I first came here, Yahtzee and Zero Punctuation always bring me back. Strange mix of critic and entertainment that's actually executed very well, in that more-so than any other game reviews I read, I never get the feeling Yahtzee gives a shit about what I take away from his reviews. I like that.

Good that they keep a firm lid on the ZP episodes, too, now that I think about it. I don't see why he would leave any time soon, though.

While I really like ZP and that brought me to the site first, Loading Ready Run always makes me laugh harder because sometimes it is just so out there.
