Things you didn't know existed and loved when you found them out

Game Grumps.

I really didn't feel like investing time into a youtube channel, but I watched one video and loved every bit of it.

Also, this.

Game Grumps is just a brilliant little addition to my life, where for around 20 minutes a day I can watch two hilarious guys play video games

I looked up game grumps from these posts. Three hours and I'm still watching >.>

Mine would be the redlettermedia reviews of the star wars films.

Once you've gone Grumps, there's no going back.

Scrubs. I remember watching the first few episodes from season 1 and I didn't like it a bit.

A week ago I gave it another shot and now it's probably one of my favourite series ever. Bar season 9 of course.

Today I found a Miracle of Sound song Gavin didn't post on his Escapist video gallery, a funny but short song dedicated to RE6's Quick Time Events. As I spend most of my time lurking on the MoS Video Gallery, I never saw this song before, had no clue it existed, and loved it when I found it. Tell me things that you had no clue existed, be it a game, show, song or anything, and loved it when you found it.

The Persona series.

Seriously, I'd never heard of it. Then one Solstice, my spouse gave me Persona 3 FES. I was like "What is this? Never heard of it."

And then I played it. Best Unexpected Gift Ever.

José Saramago novels. Read Death with Interruptions. It's about a country where everybody suddenly stops dying.

The Big Bang Theory,

I went on hoilday in september and spent most of my time stuck inside due to the weather. Started watching TBBT whilst drinking, enjoyed immensely!

 

[Arfonious]

A bit of Fry and Laurie

Fantastic humor

So true. Though I think I was molested through audio during this video at 8:28


I was not ready for such horror o.o

Well around four years ago when I was pretty fed up with the whole magical fantasy genre for being mostly about the same things, I found something surprisingly clever, thought provoking, funny and different in ASOIAF. The fact that it was known by only a minuscule percentage of the population helped. Of course two years late, HBO made a tv series and every-Fing-body jumped on the bandwagon. Hate it when that happens.

These three-

Daft Punk (I only became a fan after hearing One More Time and I didn't know their past songs beforehand)
Banoffee muffin
Comminuty (the NBC show)

Game Grumps.

I really didn't feel like investing time into a youtube channel, but I watched one video and loved every bit of it.

I discovered Jontron not too long ago but it apears he doesnt update his show anymore

Game Grumps doesnt seem "structured" enough for my tastes..and I kind of get VERY bored with people mucking about

 

[Casual Shinji]

Berserk (yes, here I go again)

I knew it existed, but I never bothered with it untill about 2 years ago. Now it's one of the best fucking things in the world.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

Venture Brothers. I didn't know it existed until I played Fallout New Vegas: Old World Blues. Now it is one of my favourite things.

 

[Technocrat]

Nightwish?

As soon as I heard one song from them, I had to hear more. And then I did. And it was awesome. Still one of my favorite bands.

Oh hell yes, I know exactly what you mean. I think I discovered them through these forums, too.

For me, I'd have to say Superjail.

Video games, believe it or not.

Before working, I would just look at the available games that were on sale and just pick the ones that I found interesting and for the most part, it had served me well. When I was able to buy magazines and later a subscription, I was able to learn about all kinds of video games that I had missed out and were regarded as must-plays or part of an awesome series that was still in production. Some of these games included:

*Any Vanillaware titles
*Shin Megami Tensei series, specifically the Devil Summoner series, the Persona series, and Nocturne
* Xenosaga series
* .hack series
* Tales series

I didn't watch Firefly until a few months ago.

That show was around for near on a decade before I discovered how awesome it was.

Same. Still have one episode and the movie to go.

 

[kasperbbs]

A TV show called 'Misfits', I often saw that name and for some reason i thought that it was some crappy reality TV show about spoiled bratty kids. Then one day i happened to come across it on youtube and it looked pretty good, so i watched the whole 3 seasons in a week and wanted more.

Egorapter hasn't updated either.

That's fair though. Some of their episodes are really boring like the Super Smash Bros. videos, but the fan created stuff is awesome and worth ckhecking out.
