Am I just so late to the party that any mention of this series of shorts based around a gaming guild has drifted deep into the layer of pages? I even checked the Gaming forum, just in case, but nothing.
I just had to say…somewhere, and if not in an older thread, then it’s worth creating a new one!..that I am just laughing my arse off.
I am, per usual, watching it kinda backwards, as my sweetie was running season 4 in the background, and I just watched season 3 last night, and I am loving it.
I don’t know if I’ll miss the appearances of Will WHeaton* in the first two seasons, but I am now going to go watch from the beginning.
Any opinions on this little show? I am mightily amused!
yes, it is the funniest TV show going, period. Better than everything else by a country mile, but it was judge “too niche” by the broadcast TV people it was pitched to. I bet they would have turned down “The Big Bang Theory” as well if they had had it pitched to them.
I’ve just seen the first episode so far. It was funny, but the characters were way over the top and I thought that might get old. It sounds like I should keep going. That’s cool. I’m in love with Felicia Day anyway.
BTW, I’m watching it on Netflix streaming and the sound is terrible, I guess because it was a webcast, right? Does that improve?
Well…I believe episodes are on Youtube, and they have a site as well…might be better quality? the sound is definitely better there.
Though I tried watching it on their site and it was annoying due to extreme lag.
I will buy their stuff, but I had to find other ways to view it before I could get into it.
Where do people watch it normally? I had no idea it was on television; I just thought it was a web thing. I have cable…maybe I should check out their site and see when it airs.
Not much interest, though. I had to bump it twice, and then all of the comments were about the computer-generated cartoon posted a link to, not to the Guild.
I’ve been watching for a couple of years now on youtube. I can’t watch a lot all at once, or it does get kind of old, but in short doses, it’s a great, hilarious show.
I watched Legend of Neil, well the first three episodes, and it’s wayyyyy inferior to The Guild, a lot closer to what most people would think a gamer web series would be: crappy to the max, with much of the humor involving pissing, puking and masturbating. But it was interesting to see Felicia Day playing a sexually obsessed fairy. Overall though I’m beginning to see why mainstreamers don’t get how good The Guild is, if this sort of thing is the matrix from which it arises.
I don’t think it is on TV, but Netflix streams seasons 1 and 2 (and maybe 3), plus it is available through XBox. It is a web thing. Catching up isn’t too hard. Each season is less than 90 minutes.
Me and a couple of friends watched all of the first three series in one drunken night. We didn’t mean to watch them all, we just started watching it and it was so good that we didn’t stop until there were no more to watch.
