Considering this is the third thread about this, this thread should have ended right here.

Whew I was really starting to dig that series. Been missing that show, and that quirky girl that has to put everything into list form.

Not every show starts good. Apocalypse Lane started off horribly, then became one of the best shows on the site.

I hope it didn't get canceled, I really started to like it.
But you are forgetting that this Jimquisition guy also had that show on distructoid, I watched a few of the episodes, and they were just as bad. He rants about random, unimportant things. That annoys me. It is a waste of the internet.
I never said anything about Jimquisition. That show has no legs standing next to Extra Credits.

Thank you! Someone with a legitimate, factual reason and something to back it up.
Good to know she isn't gone for good, I really enjoy top 5.

She had to take a break after only 19 weeks? Yahtzee has been doing weekly videos for three years straight.
Might be filming Anthony Saves the World since she's now a major character in there

He gets something new to talk about guaranteed each week. I imagine there are only so many Top 5 lists you can think of week after week.

Well she was in that last Anthony Saves the World so maybe since part 2 of that's taking a while to come out she's tied up there?

What I want to know is where did ENN go?
Cancelled.
...What? So, that's what happened?! I fricken loved ENN! It was my favorite regular show on here! My wednesdays haven't been the same without it and now you're telling me never ever again? Le sigh. T_T

To be honest I always felt insulted by the series.

There was this blond woman,
who may or may not have been and incredibly clever and valuable person
who may or may not have had some original thoughts on gaming,
but who wasn't presented in any such way in the videos.

In the videos she was just a blond chick stating her opinions, which insulted me, because It made me think:

"Do the people at the Escapist really thing I am going to watch a plain, boring stating of opinions, without any reasoning, just because it has a woman in it?"

So I stopped watching.

I love this show and I'm glad it will be back eventually. Yes part of it is because she's cute, but also she has an unique sense of humour.

And yes that Jimquistion POS needs to go...not interesting in the least (though it might help if I didn't have to look at him *shudders*-wouldn't help much though)

Woah, your right. I never even noticed that it disapeared, but I'm sure there's a good reason why. Between Loading Ready Run, Unskipable, Daily Drop, and anything else I didn't mention, those guys must have just been too busy.

apparently it's been cancelled (sad face) but you're right, they did have a lot on their plate

It's pretty funny how hypocritical this post is, since apparently ranting about people ranting about random things is less of a waste than ranting about random things...

OT: I actually only just started watching the top 5s, so I'm kind of annoyed they have stopped as soon as I noticed they weren't crap.

don't sweat it.
I find it kinda funny, backwhen I was a kid, I watched her on Nickelodeon, now I'm watching her online. It has all come full circle...

I really like the top 5's. There are a few moments in them that I don't appreciate, but anytime that it doesn't seem like she's pulling a "cute girl" act its fantastic.

He is likely paid an order of magnitude more money than she is though.

So I stopped watching.
This was my feeling after watching the first video, I was really quite offended and wrote some long rants about it.

They gradually got better. It'd be a shame if they stopped altogether now.
