I was wondering that, too. Maybe she's been on vacation, or working on something else at the moment. I hope her show isn't done already. It gave me something to watch on Tuesdays.

To be perfectly honest Lisa Foiles is the last image the video game industry needs if it ever wants to be taken seriously. Also isn't this the first week it's been absent? First week I noticed.

If you watch extra credits, then you can probably work out why it's no longer around. Take a look at the 'Open Letter to EA Marketing' episode for hints.

This is if it's actually gone.

Creature Caster Masters has already been struggling. It feels like way more then two weeks plus their series already set out a 'Blooper' episode. Not a good sign for them. As for Lisa- I am not sure, but it does suck that we did not get to see a new episode with her since she's awesome. Let's just hope for the best is all.

The worst part.. no offense- is that new series called "Jimquisition". Everyone dislikes the new series brought on here because the dude seriously just stands there, talking harshly on a mic at us, and cusses non stop with the f word. Just bad taste for me honestly. Besides, Movie Bob and Yahtzee are the best at what he's trying to do and give good humor about it with positive flowing entertainment before our eyes. With him... just saw him talking. Couldn't stand it.
Jimquisition is quite popular on Destructoid though, which is why it was brought here I assume. I wonder what's with this huge split?

I could care less if she's already done. Oh no, where ever will I go to see another opinionated "top 5" (or 10) show on the internetz?

you're thinking of stuff like I Hit It With My Axe. honestly, when lisa foiles first appeared on the escapist, i was very sceptical, and figured it was just another attractive woman cash-in crap. but after watching it regularly, i've found that it is much more than that. lisa actually has a genuine personality, is genuinely funny and entertaining, and she genuinely loves videogames. yes, she is a n attractive woman, and yes, she has no problem acknowledging that; and why shouldn't she, anyone else would do the same thing, its not like she should dress like a nun or something(actually, nevermind that, since some people have a fetish for that type of thing...). yes, lisa has no problem acknowledging the fact she is attractive, but she doesn't take advantage of that fact and try to exploit it. she seems like she is just being, well, herself on the show, and if we can't acknowledge that even attractive women like videogames, then how is that good for the industry? do we plan on going back to the roots of the videogame purists with the belief that only pasty nerds game?

I tried to watch that show a few times, but its stupidity threatened to leap out of my monitor and consume me.

It was an entertaining show to say the least. If the robot episode is the last episode then at least it was the best one.

Then again, what impact did she have on the industry? She has a video series, which is her opinion on a list of things, on an internet magazine that only a (relative) handful of people have heard of. She really is no different than Yahtzee or Moviebob. Hell, most of the time Extra Credits is giving their opinion on various topics (very well informed opinions, but opinions nonetheless).

The show is dumb as shit and never has anything interesting to say.

Lise Foiles stated on her Twitter account, that the series has not been canceled but she is just taking a break.

Personally I hope she's not already done. I enjoyed her videos even if a lot of other people didn't.

creature caster master was very funny the first episode, but it seems like a bit of a a 1 trick pony. after that first one, theres not much left for joke material

People still think we are "The last bastion of Intelligence on the internet", so something as simple and honest as Jim is frowned upon.

She shook the video gaming industry to the core with her top 5 list of games, look at all the radical changes we now have.


This is far more damaging to the industry than sweet little Lisa ever will be.

I'm definitely disappointed. I like the show. Sure, there were some things I disagreed with in her lists but it was not only entertaining but a good place to start an honest discussion about your own personal top five.
I hope to see it back really soon.

She's probably off on vacation or something like that. It's not like they have purged her from the website, after all.

And really, the videos are all right. Not exactly grade A at all times, but hey, it's the internet. It happens to everyone.

I never realized that so MANY people had such... creepy reasons for watching the show.
