Ok, so I?m pretty new here so I don?t know the word on the street about this, but what do you think about Freemans Mind?

For those who don?t know, Freemans Mind is a commentary on the first instalment of Half-Life, where creator Scott Ross voices Freeman as a sarcastic sociopath trying to just get out of the events of the Black Mesa Incident.
I mean to me, it?s the one thing on the internet that has survived the march of time to maintain what is simply a high quality of humour. Compared to other shows I used to find funny, but now I only watch just because its out and it is still entertaining but not laugh out loud (I?m talking about Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series, Zero Punctuation and Red versus Blue, amongst others).
I don?t know why, maybe Ross is just talented and committed enough to keep in sight what he intended to by a comedic commentary on Half-Life, or maybe it?s just because only about 5 or so eps are released every year, leaving views endlessly hungry for more, but Freemans Mind, to me at least, is a much loved series. Ross should be getting paid for this.
Also, I find the character Ross voices as Freeman almost inspirational. An unstoppable, self-confident, smart, funny sociopath intent on getting everything for nothing just because his shear self announced majesty demands it.
P.S. Alot of this is also accountiable to Ross's other series Civil Protection
