I’m not saying this just to be contrary - I have seen a lot of episodes, I get all the online-gaming-subculture jokes, and I find The Guild without fail to be cartoonishly broad, embarrassingly overacted, and painfully unfunny.

But that’s what makes it so good!

I watched all the episodes (so far) yesterday. Some of them were pretty funny; Vork is my favourite, but maybe I just grew up in a house full of cheapskates. 🙂

The hip moves Tink does towards the end of the “Avatar” video make me feel all funny “down there.”

I recently watched it on Netflix streaming and can’t think of the last time I laughed so hard.

“She needs more cleavage!”

Love the show.

BTW, if you like this stuff, y’all might get a kick out of a little movie with lots of fun D&D humor (albeit with with terrible, terrible production values) - [The Gamers: Dorkness Rising](http://www.netflix.com/WiMovie/The-Gamers-Dorkness-Rising/70104325?strackid=5b804bdec75947da_0_srl&strkid=493624684_0_0&trkid=438381), available on Netflix watch instantly.
