Dammit-- now that you've said it, this is exactly what I did as a college kid with two of my fellow art students when I went on a field trip to Chicago for their art museums. "Chicago's supposed have good pizza-- let's find a pizza place!"
@@ericchen9317 i think the video is supposed to be more like u get off a bus in times square and he gets every pizza he can possibly see; however another video of him doing NYC pizzas: local's highest rated edition that would be a great video too
We forget a lot that Zach originally wanted to be a director and then he gets handed the camera and immediately starts shooting cinematic beautiful panning shots of the city
@@thephoenix7090 my opinion is that there were probably signs early on about Ned even before Alex but most of them thought they were just overthinking and it was just harmless flirting at most. Then maybe some things became more tasteless but they still chose to forget it because nothing was concrete and they've known him for years. It's human nature to wnat to see what you only want to see anyway.
It's the way Zach has every New Yorker in existence rallying behind him in this comment section. Making the Jewish and New York communities come together in their shared anger since 1990 like a true icon.
Really enjoyed the less stylized format, and the ensemble of everyone on this pizza quest. Hope you guys consider doing more like this, and the taco thing sounds like a great idea.
@@WamiesAZT I think the Alex thing is fairly recent and I don’t recall anything about him going to a music festival recently. I’m pretty sure I remember Ariel mentioning the portopotty thing in one of the podcasts
What's fun is that because of these videos, his regular diet is mostly vegetarian. That means he doesn't strain his stomach as much, he also exercises to make sure he doesn't get overweight (plus I think they aren't filmed consistently, like I think is one or of these vids a month maybe 🤷♀️)
@@AuthorZaraHoffman it’s called the Try Guys Try To Find the Best Pizza NY vs LA from the old company. Ned and Eugene were in NY looking for the best rated pizza and Zach and Keith were trying to find the worst LA pizza lol
honestly i completely agree 😅 i did see/hear this was filmed a long time ago, probably before people knew, but low key becky looks more hungover than angry hahah
I love how, the second Zach McFilmschool took over the camera, we got a montage of artsy, deep hipstershots from the trashed and vibrant streets of New York. Bravo!
The problem is, any time a city is "Known for" something, a million places pop up selling that thing and most of them are terrible. Especially in touristy areas, they know the tourists can't tell the difference and they can make tons of money off them by claiming to have something authentic.

Pretty sure she’s doing okay. Whether we think she shouldn’t or should be with Ned, she is seemingly still with him. Though we all know that goddess deserves better then Ned.
I watched this video with Dad (he grew up in NYC) and he asked me to write a comment to let you know he agrees with Zach! He was in an uproar saying how could they be in midtown! Please do a sequel in the village to appease him. We love your videos so much! We did a whole marathon earlier while I was in the hospital. Keep up the good work!
THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT VIDEO. i love the loose format and the ensemble cast, it felt a lot like friends hanging out and less like i was watching keith slowly go insane like usual eat the menu videos. please give us tacos in LA!!
Everybody was biting in different places than where the other bit, meanwhile Alex full on French kissed the pizza where Ned bit it. We’ve been so blind. 💀
@leo nah I think that was just becos Miles went in between them as he shouted "I'm walkin here" but the pizza and Alex constantly being next to Ned is definitely ICK
Zach is absolutely correct waltzing through midtown without deviating is why all the pizza was just fine. To outsiders it’s delicious but if they had gone 5 blocks over and 3 down from the one next to the Church of Scientology there are like 8 great ones in Hells Kitchen.
To outsiders it's delicious? Did you watch the video? Most of them were rated really poorly. And when I went, I didn't have a single slice I found edible.
@@briellec7173 The funny thing, no one seems to agree what is good/the best. I'll let someone else make a recommendation since I didn't find anything truly great.
People said Becky was off in this video and they speculated they may have known at this point or at least witnessed flirting. Another theory is shes just hung over. She just seems tired to me lol
I feel like Hughie is a human randomizer. He has all these esoteric skills to pull out of nowhere (like accordion!), always looks different in every episode. Not convinced he isn't a shapeshifter....
I know Keith's creativity probably creates a whole bunch of headaches that Alex and Rachel and other production team members have to work with but it's always worth it. Great content.
I have a bit of face-blindness so it sometimes takes me a second to recognize him -- never know if we're gonna get short-hair, long-beard Hughie or long-hair, no-beard Hughie, but he always looks great either way! Definitely pulls off many different styles.
@@MV12309 I think the same thing. They were way too familiar with one another in those photos for it to have been the first time it happened. Plus there are stories of him coming on to other women during their concert tour.
@@alexandermiller9564 I just saw a post from deuxMoi and he got a story from a former employee saying it’s been over a year and they have been hooking up in company trips and what not and the guys found out a month ago.
unfortunately every food establishment in penn station is gone. they've been undergoing construction for like two years with no progress so there's only a news stand that sells $5 bottles of soda. i commute often so i know 😅
@@braids4836 Midtown is extremely touristy and kind of awful in pretty much every way. It's not a broad representation of what NYC is like, so it's not a great place to get representative pizza. People should only go to Midtown if they have a specific reason (like seeing a Broadway show or working there).
I think this makes a lot more sense, bc if you’re walking around as a tourist you are just going to go to the first one you see that looks decent. I would love if they put the google maps/yelp stars on screen as they’re trying it 😂 see which ones people actually think are good
This feels like Keith going back to his early days, making videos at Buzzfeed. Just randomly deciding on a video idea, and then going and shooting it that day with whatever people and equipment he can find.
He isn’t wrong. Tourists usually stay around tourist areas, or those are the areas they hit first. This was a brilliant idea, do one for tacos in LA. I’m going at the end of October!
I’m with Zach. Whoever decided you should start at Columbus Circle, go down Broadway, and spend a lot of your time in Midtown/Times Square didn’t set this experiment up for success.
I have a brilliant Eat the Menu idea! Eat the Menu: Dining Hall edition. As Keith tours with Lewberger, he hits up notable universities and tries everything on the dining hall menu. Universities are pitted against each other “March Madness” bracket style. Guests could include the Lewberger guys, notable alumni, professors, coaches, Tryceratops students, etc. Whatever university wins at the end of the series, the Try Guys then come and do a video. It could be a “…Try Being Mascots,” “…Try Going Back to College,” “…Try Marching Band,” or whatever makes sense for the winning university. Thanks insomnia for the random idea, lol!
I feel like that's true for food in general in tourist areas; overall they don't have to try because there are always people around who are going to buy it regardless of its quality
@@hannahcollins1816 yup. Had the worst Italian food and pizza when I visited Italy. Only the places that the local tour guide took us to had great food.
@@kareny5438 Yep! Only "meh" food experience I had in Italy was a ristorante in a tourist-frequented area - wasn't our top choice but we were starving at the time!
Honestly, loved the hell out of this video!! They went and did the “tourist” run of pizza places. I definitely think NY pizza has its own allure. It’s not my favorite but eh. Keith did a great job! I also loved the laid back, fun atmosphere here with all their close friends!!
Yeah. Being from Philly, this is like when people try to do all the cheesesteak places only to discover not all of them are good. It's really the street carts and little pizza shops that have some of the best.
Watching this back because I remember Ned showing up and them being weirdly less than enthused?? I understand this was posted before the Harry Styles concert but he said they had a relationship. They are close to eachother in every shot, and she bit off of the pizza he ate. He just seems like the creepy uncle that everyone’s like WELP Ned’s here 🫠🫠
I fully support everything Zach said. $1 pizza in midtown is the worst representation of our city. 😩 Please do a video of the actual good places in NYC. Start downtown and end in Brooklyn.
He bought pizza at every price point though. Keith's thoughts that this is what the average person visiting New York experiences is correct - this is representative! I went looking for a place based on reviews and I still didn't enjoy my pizza experience in NY ha.
@@megbdaisy Just avoid tourist spots or ask a local. NYC's dollar slices are better than $4 slices in many places. Tourist spots are made worse and overcharge because they know they'll reel in suckers no matter what.
@@tolazytothinkofanamd2351 When was the last time you stopped a random on the street and ask them about food recommendations? No one is going to do that, speciallyin a place like New York. So it's better to make sure that the pizza in those areas are good, since a tourist might not venture super far if they don't know the way.
I wish they would have gone to better spots like Keith does when he reviews different the best places in LA. Good slices are typically in areas that New Yorkers visit. New Yorkers aren’t getting plain slices in Times Square or other tourist areas if they can help it. Sauce is really good and Zach rant at the end is spot on!
Okay but can we actually do the LA version of this with street tacos in one specific touristy section of the city, just like with this one?? I'd love that!
Keith making sure Alexandria doesn’t run into anyone when she’s talking and walking backwards is such a wholesome friend moment 🥹 Edit: …this comment aged poorly 😅
As a smug New Yorker I'm relieved to see Zach set the record straight and finally shout at Keith what I've been shouting at my screen this entire video.
@@williamfitzpatrick8073 Keith proved a point with this format - NYC doesn't have good pizza. If NYC had good pizza, midtown pizza would also be good. He hit the places tourists would go, he had the tourist experience. This is what most tourists think of pizza in your city - it's pretty bad. I'm 100% sure there are better places in NYC but if it's not all good, then it's not all good. The accurate statement is therefore: some shops in NYC have good pizza. Which is true everywhere in the world.
@@kaldogorath Nah, the truth is generally that when you go to touristy spots you get the watered-down low-rent version of authentic food. Like if you go to India, the best food isn't gonna be in the 2 blocks surrounding the Hyatt you're staying in 🙄
Honestly Zach was my favorite part of this video. His don't come for my city you outsider rant was hilarious. Also thank you Keith for braving more dairy than even non lactose-intolerant people should for our benefit/entertainment.
As a new yorker i'm so glad keith ended up visiting a 2 Bros & liked it 😭😭😭. 2 bros will always be my go-to $1 pizza joint! Though he should've sprinkled them with garlic, oregano, and pepper flakes. Those are what makes the classic $1 slices better
I SAID EXACTLY THIS!!!! I watched this just waiting and waiting and waiting for them to hit up a 2 Bros - it's my absolute FAVORITE! Just imagine how much more they would have liked it if they did the garlic & oregano!! omg!
I just finished rewatching the episode and I don't think it's a coincidence that the vibe is off with Becky & Maggie, they seem irritated and don't interact with Alex at all.
Becky is pissed and that’s probably why she has the sunglasses on because she doesn’t like people seeing her angry and i would be took and she has a right to be mad they wives are close and I have so much sympathy for Ariel right now
this video has the same kind of vibe as an episode in HIMYM, where marshall tries to find his perfect burger in NYC, and the gang just go along with it
OMG. My husband, a New York born Jew, said halfway through the video “I want to do a video eating every taco in LA and shit talk all of them”. Then at the end when Zach said THE EXACT SAME THING we lost it. 😂😂😂😂
After all of the drama I just realized how awkward it is that Ariel isn’t in this video. Zach and Maggie are here, and so Is Becky and Keith. Ned is here but why isn’t he with his wife Ariel?
@@thepurrisher243 I'm aware, I'm following the gossip as much as anyone! But a video published way back in August can't be evidence of something that didn't happen until September (club/Harry Styles/confrontation)
I’ve never even been to NYC but Keith’s conceit here about tourist spots is backwards. Tourist friendly spots don’t HAVE to be good, because they will get people to come in based on foot traffic alone. Places off the beaten path have to be good enough to get locals to be repeat customers.
Please do the taco thing. Zach and Keith hit the streets like tourists, accompanied by different guests who might be experts in the food they are trying in the episode sounds like a great balance between chaos and fun.
This was a hilarious video but as a New Yorker my DESPAIR that they only tried pizzas in Midtown was palpable. I kept helplessly shouting at the screen, "you are in the wrong neighborhood! no don't walk in that direction!" It was like watching a horror movie where you're yelling at the characters not to go into the haunted house. Would love to see them visit pizza places in Brooklyn, or do another vid where they visit the places New Yorkers recommend
Queens: New Park, Dani's, Gloria's, Gaby's Brooklyn: LB Spumoni's, Juliana's, Luigi's Nothing good would be in midtown by default lol - but my favorite pizza in Manhattan is Joe's Pizza by west 4 and Rubirosa's in little italy
@@valarya it looks like they went to the Joes pizza in midtown. If they wanted some real joes pizza they should have gone to the one in the lower east side or Brooklyn !
I do completely understand Alexandria's point of view but I think this was a classic Try Guys video. Trying something and causing chaos while doing it! 😂👌🏽 Absolutely loved it! If you guys are thinking about doing another such video, I'd definitely love to see it!
All the times Ned and Alex are together in the video 10:09 Ned and Alex arrive 10:34 Ned and Alex walk next to each other 10:45 Ned ears a slice of pizza and Alex ate his slice of the pizza as well 12:44 Alex next to Ned again 13:26 very quickly in the frame Ned and Alex are next to each other
Zach is right though, time square is gross. If you’re coming to the city, avoid it lol also I’m from Jersey and I frequent nyc often, there are way to many pizza places to really pick random places to find the best pizza. It’s a fun idea but like Keith you’ll be disappointed. Just do your research first 😅😅
It sounds like one of those "you gotta see it for yourself" things. Because if anything, hearing about how it's so bad just made me want to go there to see why even more lol. And then once you've seen it you just don't bother anymore if you visit NY again in the future.
10:20 isn’t that “too many zoos” ?? 16:20 This whole scenario caught me off guard and made me burst out laughing. The guy taking himself way to seriously on a motor skooter and Keith yelling “F*CK YEAH!!” 😂
This video was fun but as a tourist my friends and sister actually do look at food places that have high reviews/ locals suggest. I feel like a lot of people do that when they travel so they get their moneys worth so that would’ve been relatable. Basically, I feel like Alexandria was right from the start lol
Not to assume too much, but I imagine maybe it was a "hey, we're about to lose our partners, and also all our friends and co-workers hate us, and we both might get fired, but at least i have you!" or something... too bad from Ned's official statement he seems like he had no intention in carrying on once the jig was up.
@@Komaesa I agree, his statement did say this, but it could just be for public. We don’t know what’s going on with everything in detail. Maybe they will end their affair seeing the blow up, but personally I am not going to trust his “note” until otherwise is seen. Though, seeing how bad this blow up was, I do feel like they would potentially end it, but not for the right reason. If they weren’t found out, I don’t think they were going to end any time soon. Just my thoughts.
I actually sincerely hope this video format is repeated in other cities. I appreciated the vibes and it had just the right amount of Try Guy vlogging chaos without being overwhelming. Also, I feel like someone owes Alexandria a nice coffee or something for her worry. 😅
100% I grew up in Greenpoint Brooklyn and grew up eating pizza from a hole in the wall place around the corner by the library. Fantastic pizza, garlic knots, and my mom's fav baked ziti. No one did it like them and haven't found anything that topped it. They are unfortunately closed now but glad I had my boyfriend try their pizza during a trip years ago. He also says it's the best he's ever had and we reminisce often of it.
This is so original youtube I love it! Honestly these less high production type videos are SO fun! You feel a lot closer as a viewer - fan since Buzzfeed days and I love this as a style in amongst the other videos for the try guys!
I couldn’t stop thinking about Ned and Alex in this video and just came here to rewatch/remind myself. I felt the first time that Ned's energy was off and that he and Alex were near each other a lot and Ned was dressed "fancier" than necessary and all around the vibe was weird. I couldn't tell why, but now I'm just grossed out... I'm just sorry Keith's video is messed up now, thanks to them. I can't not focus on THAT part of it...
i dig this format of everyone just wandering aimlessly through a large city searching for food, this is very college of y’all
Much more relatable too lol
Feels like we’re all hanging out and I love it

I laughed harder in this than most Keith Eats Everything videos. Love the group vibe!
i agree with keith, him doing the tourist format is more fun to watch, its like spontaneous we love that
Agreed, I'd love to see him do this again if they do tacos in LA!
I haven't traveled much lately but my rule is never to eat where tourists eat. It's almost always not that great and overpriced.
Format is good, but him going to the most tourist-y place in New York and claiming all the pizza is bad is dumb.
Yeah this would be a good idea for numerous tourist cities. Like go to New Orleans and compare gumbo or poboys.

i hope they run this back but it’s keith and eugene doing a “rank the borough” and rank every dollar slice in a ten block radius
I feel like Hughie is a human randomizer. He has all these esoteric skills to pull out of nowhere (like accordion!), always looks different in every episode. Not convinced he isn't a shapeshifter....
Love Hughie!
The way the pizza improved dramatically once Keith was on his own....
and further down Midtown
It’s because the pizza in midtown are generally horrible because it’s a tourist spot and they don’t know better 😅😅
I know Keith's creativity probably creates a whole bunch of headaches that Alex and Rachel and other production team members have to work with but it's always worth it. Great content.
The way I didn’t recognize Hughie and thought Keith and Zach were just yelling in front of a street accordionist 😭
😅
@@HughieStoneFish315 I recognized you! Impeccable style as usual. And impressive accordian playing.
I have a bit of face-blindness so it sometimes takes me a second to recognize him -- never know if we're gonna get short-hair, long-beard Hughie or long-hair, no-beard Hughie, but he always looks great either way! Definitely pulls off many different styles.
I loved this one. The fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants styling was just so fun and earnest. Taco vid when??
Anyone else here after the Ned/Alexandria drama to see how they interact in this episode?
I’ve been watching a lot of videos and I think he’s been cheating for a while
@@MV12309 I think the same thing. They were way too familiar with one another in those photos for it to have been the first time it happened.
Plus there are stories of him coming on to other women during their concert tour.
@@alexandermiller9564 I just saw a post from deuxMoi and he got a story from a former employee saying it’s been over a year and they have been hooking up in company trips and what not and the guys found out a month ago.
YESSS and you can tell she was more involved once Ned came in the picture
@@MV12309 I saw somewhere that the affair has been going on for over a year
If we really wanted to see Keith disappointed while in NY, he should’ve done “trying every food establishment in Penn Station”
🤢, that's the worst food ever
dude thats just inhumane torture
It costs a kidney for a coffee in there
unfortunately every food establishment in penn station is gone. they've been undergoing construction for like two years with no progress so there's only a news stand that sells $5 bottles of soda. i commute often so i know 😅
@@emoarchdruid …almost every stand is open
I’m really glad that Zach brought up the fact that the fact most of the pizza they ate was in midtown played a huge factor in the outcome
he's a real one
As someone who knows very little about NYC why is them being in midtown a big deal?
@@braids4836 Midtown is extremely touristy and kind of awful in pretty much every way. It's not a broad representation of what NYC is like, so it's not a great place to get representative pizza. People should only go to Midtown if they have a specific reason (like seeing a Broadway show or working there).
I think this makes a lot more sense, bc if you’re walking around as a tourist you are just going to go to the first one you see that looks decent. I would love if they put the google maps/yelp stars on screen as they’re trying it 😂 see which ones people actually think are good
Check out the onebite app for reviews all over the world of pizza. One bite, everybody knows the rules.
When it said stay tuned to find out the craziest place Ned's ever done it, they really meant it😅😢
I was just thinking this what the fffff
💀
NOOO 🤯😂💀💀💀
This feels like Keith going back to his early days, making videos at Buzzfeed. Just randomly deciding on a video idea, and then going and shooting it that day with whatever people and equipment he can find.
But I dig it.
He isn’t wrong. Tourists usually stay around tourist areas, or those are the areas they hit first.
This was a brilliant idea, do one for tacos in LA. I’m going at the end of October!
I’m with Zach. Whoever decided you should start at Columbus Circle, go down Broadway, and spend a lot of your time in Midtown/Times Square didn’t set this experiment up for success.
I have a brilliant Eat the Menu idea! Eat the Menu: Dining Hall edition. As Keith tours with Lewberger, he hits up notable universities and tries everything on the dining hall menu. Universities are pitted against each other “March Madness” bracket style. Guests could include the Lewberger guys, notable alumni, professors, coaches, Tryceratops students, etc. Whatever university wins at the end of the series, the Try Guys then come and do a video. It could be a “…Try Being Mascots,” “…Try Going Back to College,” “…Try Marching Band,” or whatever makes sense for the winning university. Thanks insomnia for the random idea, lol!
Dude these are amazing ideas. Tweet them at Keith, they must do this!
I would watch this series!
I always imagined universities had the exact same food, like bought from the same supplier and everything
Becky’s face with every bite should’ve been a montage 😂😂
Becky’s face with every bite should have been a montage
I think we've all learned the more touristy the area, the worse the pizza gets. Keith, I'm so sorry for your taste buds.
I feel like that's true for food in general in tourist areas; overall they don't have to try because there are always people around who are going to buy it regardless of its quality
@@hannahcollins1816 yup. Had the worst Italian food and pizza when I visited Italy. Only the places that the local tour guide took us to had great food.
@@kareny5438 Yep! Only "meh" food experience I had in Italy was a ristorante in a tourist-frequented area - wasn't our top choice but we were starving at the time!
“Ned just got here”
Becky: 😒
Becky does seem like the type that’s not able to hide her feeling and I love it lmao
We need this “every taco in LA” video BUT we need a Mexican foodie person to review them with you guys!!
Or Curly
@@faithsnyder239 Curly isn’t Mexican, he is from El Salvador
I hope they see this and chose me 😂
I'm a Mexican foodie but I'm not Mexican so....?
@@Catrell they’re saying Mexican as in a Mexican person not describing the food as Mexican
Honestly, loved the hell out of this video!!
They went and did the “tourist” run of pizza places. I definitely think NY pizza has its own allure. It’s not my favorite but eh. Keith did a great job!
I also loved the laid back, fun atmosphere here with all their close friends!!
Me too! I laughed so hard at them talking about how horrible Midtown pizza is. My friends and I barely go north of 14th street for a reason…..
Yeah. Being from Philly, this is like when people try to do all the cheesesteak places only to discover not all of them are good. It's really the street carts and little pizza shops that have some of the best.
The funniest part was Ned randomly remembering that the weirdest place he did it was in a porta potty at a music festival😂
Miles' "heheh... I am so tired" afterward too LOL
Watching this back because I remember Ned showing up and them being weirdly less than enthused?? I understand this was posted before the Harry Styles concert but he said they had a relationship. They are close to eachother in every shot, and she bit off of the pizza he ate. He just seems like the creepy uncle that everyone’s like WELP Ned’s here 🫠🫠
@@TepidPeppermint excuse me? this is so heartbreaking. was will and alex engaged then?
@@jersheygaddi2388 I believe they were engaged since may last year
apparently its been going for almost a year
Supposedly they were seeing each other for a year 😱
Ariel was supposed to meet everyone in NYC for this video but found out and immediately flew back to LA.
I fully support everything Zach said. $1 pizza in midtown is the worst representation of our city. 😩 Please do a video of the actual good places in NYC. Start downtown and end in Brooklyn.
He bought pizza at every price point though. Keith's thoughts that this is what the average person visiting New York experiences is correct - this is representative! I went looking for a place based on reviews and I still didn't enjoy my pizza experience in NY ha.
Yes exactly, brooklyn or queens
@@megbdaisy Just avoid tourist spots or ask a local. NYC's dollar slices are better than $4 slices in many places. Tourist spots are made worse and overcharge because they know they'll reel in suckers no matter what.
@@tolazytothinkofanamd2351
When was the last time you stopped a random on the street and ask them about food recommendations? No one is going to do that, speciallyin a place like New York. So it's better to make sure that the pizza in those areas are good, since a tourist might not venture super far if they don't know the way.
@@lunayen tbh of all the places to do it nyc is probably the best. They love bragging about their city and are generally nicer than you think.
I wish they would have gone to better spots like Keith does when he reviews different the best places in LA. Good slices are typically in areas that New Yorkers visit. New Yorkers aren’t getting plain slices in Times Square or other tourist areas if they can help it. Sauce is really good and Zach rant at the end is spot on!
yes but this was fun because we've seen heaps of videos where they just go to places on 'best' lists
Exactly
I know they were in NYC for a real reason and did other stuff
but I like to think they flew in, filmed video and flew home the next morning
Interesting how you barely see Alex until Ned is around
That's also editing
…
She’s a producer, not a Try Guy
she was texting a lot in the scenes she was in and I'd put money that she was texting you know who
There is part of it where Ned takes a huge but the pizza and Alex comes and Takes a bit in the same spot very odd
THATS WHAT IM FUCKIGN SAYING
Okay but can we actually do the LA version of this with street tacos in one specific touristy section of the city, just like with this one?? I'd love that!
Keith making sure Alexandria doesn’t run into anyone when she’s talking and walking backwards is such a wholesome friend moment 🥹
Edit: …this comment aged poorly 😅
when?!
@@aleks-33 0:54
Exactly
Or he doesn't want to get sued if she falls over and breaks something.
@@WellISaidIt you are the embodiment of the left brain
As a smug New Yorker I'm relieved to see Zach set the record straight and finally shout at Keith what I've been shouting at my screen this entire video.
Keith never stood a chance starting in Midtown with this format, I almost launched myself through the wall out of frustration.
@@williamfitzpatrick8073 Keith proved a point with this format - NYC doesn't have good pizza. If NYC had good pizza, midtown pizza would also be good. He hit the places tourists would go, he had the tourist experience. This is what most tourists think of pizza in your city - it's pretty bad. I'm 100% sure there are better places in NYC but if it's not all good, then it's not all good.
The accurate statement is therefore: some shops in NYC have good pizza. Which is true everywhere in the world.
@@kaldogorath This was difficult to read and impossible to respond to, the mental gymnastics are beyond my psychic flexibility.
@@kaldogorath Nah, the truth is generally that when you go to touristy spots you get the watered-down low-rent version of authentic food. Like if you go to India, the best food isn't gonna be in the 2 blocks surrounding the Hyatt you're staying in 🙄
@@JMP-s2p Thank you for this, I almost had a stroke reading that word salad Nick tossed together.
Becky definitely gave off a certain vibe this whole video
Honestly Zach was my favorite part of this video. His don't come for my city you outsider rant was hilarious. Also thank you Keith for braving more dairy than even non lactose-intolerant people should for our benefit/entertainment.
As a new yorker i'm so glad keith ended up visiting a 2 Bros & liked it 😭😭😭. 2 bros will always be my go-to $1 pizza joint! Though he should've sprinkled them with garlic, oregano, and pepper flakes. Those are what makes the classic $1 slices better
I SAID EXACTLY THIS!!!! I watched this just waiting and waiting and waiting for them to hit up a 2 Bros - it's my absolute FAVORITE! Just imagine how much more they would have liked it if they did the garlic & oregano!! omg!
Keith: So I wanna go to NYC and...
Zach: Say no more
I bet Zach was behind Miles' backpack disappearing so he could shoot nyc himself lol
@@gabiluch87 hahahahhahaa
We now know that the weirdest place that Ned has done it is inside one of his employees without the knowledge of his wife.
Hey Man I Found A Pizza Planet Restaurant In Disneyland
IMSCREAMING😭😭
shooooo
Not me refreshing the try guys home page over and over again so that I could watch this before I have to go to work 😂
I was doing the same thing i kept refreshing 😭 lmao
not u? who then?
If they did Zach’s idea of doing the same thing, but with street tacos in LA, honestly all of them would be ranked 5 stars LOL.
Street tacos would be great to watch. I feel like they'll find an excuse to stop by Kogi and I won't begrudge them for it.
Would it be just street tacos or add in "hole in the walls?" It would be a funny aside to count how many taco bells he passes.
I dont know if Zach would be able to do a lot of them though since he was so many diet restrictions
Food trucks have to count, though. And probably be Keith's thing with Zach accompanying.
Zach was making the exact opposite argument - and I agree with him!
This video is just “try guys and crew run around nyc and eat pizza and hang out” and I love it
Becky's face on the left at 10:08 just says everything
100%. She was pissed and clearly avoiding Ned and Alex
I just finished rewatching the episode and I don't think it's a coincidence that the vibe is off with Becky & Maggie, they seem irritated and don't interact with Alex at all.
Becky is pissed and that’s probably why she has the sunglasses on because she doesn’t like people seeing her angry and i would be took and she has a right to be mad they wives are close and I have so much sympathy for Ariel right now
@@kaylak07
Yes the way I realized throughout the video Becky was never close to Alex or even interacted with her
this video has the same kind of vibe as an episode in HIMYM, where marshall tries to find his perfect burger in NYC, and the gang just go along with it
Omg yes
OMG. My husband, a New York born Jew, said halfway through the video “I want to do a video eating every taco in LA and shit talk all of them”. Then at the end when Zach said THE EXACT SAME THING we lost it. 😂😂😂😂
After all of the drama I just realized how awkward it is that Ariel isn’t in this video. Zach and Maggie are here, and so Is Becky and Keith. Ned is here but why isn’t he with his wife Ariel?
She apparently landed found out the news and left immediately 🙁
I was told she landed in NY, found out, and went RIGHT back to LA.
@@jordanashleigh8351 This video was posted early August though, and allegedly all the drama happened early September (1 month later)
@@pamelac3940 theyve been cheating since may atleast
@@thepurrisher243 I'm aware, I'm following the gossip as much as anyone! But a video published way back in August can't be evidence of something that didn't happen until September (club/Harry Styles/confrontation)
Everything Zach said in that last minute was 100% facts. C'mon Keith.
I’ve never even been to NYC but Keith’s conceit here about tourist spots is backwards. Tourist friendly spots don’t HAVE to be good, because they will get people to come in based on foot traffic alone. Places off the beaten path have to be good enough to get locals to be repeat customers.
This! Bleeker Street Pizza on 7th and Vinnie's on 2nd are two of my consistent favorites in Manhattan.
Zach's comments at the end are spot on. Don't march through midtown like a tourist and make a conclusion about pizza in my city.
Any places you'd recommend?
Exactly! I've had really great pizza that was not in midtown lol.
@@justinchandler6045 Stay out of Manhattan; come to Queens or the Bronx.
@@future.cadaver Theres a couple good places in the Lower East Side!
@@future.cadaver tell me you've never been above 125th st without telling me you've never been above 125th st
Please do the taco thing. Zach and Keith hit the streets like tourists, accompanied by different guests who might be experts in the food they are trying in the episode sounds like a great balance between chaos and fun.
This was a hilarious video but as a New Yorker my DESPAIR that they only tried pizzas in Midtown was palpable. I kept helplessly shouting at the screen, "you are in the wrong neighborhood! no don't walk in that direction!" It was like watching a horror movie where you're yelling at the characters not to go into the haunted house. Would love to see them visit pizza places in Brooklyn, or do another vid where they visit the places New Yorkers recommend
i feel you lol
pure horror
Pleaaaaaase Brooklyn 😭
My theory is the lower you go the better the pizza
Omg Smiling Pizza in Brooklyn 🤤 idk if it’s still around but that pizzas was BOMB
Yes! This! Brooklyn for pizza always.
Queens: New Park, Dani's, Gloria's, Gaby's
Brooklyn: LB Spumoni's, Juliana's, Luigi's
Nothing good would be in midtown by default lol - but my favorite pizza in Manhattan is Joe's Pizza by west 4 and Rubirosa's in little italy
They went to Joe's @ 12:41 and didn't like it 😱
@@valarya it looks like they went to the Joes pizza in midtown. If they wanted some real joes pizza they should have gone to the one in the lower east side or Brooklyn !
I do completely understand Alexandria's point of view but I think this was a classic Try Guys video. Trying something and causing chaos while doing it! 😂👌🏽 Absolutely loved it! If you guys are thinking about doing another such video, I'd definitely love to see it!
All the times Ned and Alex are together in the video
10:09 Ned and Alex arrive
10:34 Ned and Alex walk next to each other
10:45 Ned ears a slice of pizza and Alex ate his slice of the pizza as well
12:44 Alex next to Ned again
13:26 very quickly in the frame Ned and Alex are next to each other
In almost every shot that Ned is present, Alex is also there.
They didn’t arrive together. She’s at the very beginning of the video
You a real one
Zach is right though, time square is gross. If you’re coming to the city, avoid it lol also I’m from Jersey and I frequent nyc often, there are way to many pizza places to really pick random places to find the best pizza. It’s a fun idea but like Keith you’ll be disappointed. Just do your research first 😅😅
nah we love to see it, speaking as someone from the other side of the world
You’re totally right! When I went I was like amazed by everything but Time Square it was just so much at once!
It sounds like one of those "you gotta see it for yourself" things. Because if anything, hearing about how it's so bad just made me want to go there to see why even more lol. And then once you've seen it you just don't bother anymore if you visit NY again in the future.
10:20 isn’t that “too many zoos” ??
16:20 This whole scenario caught me off guard and made me burst out laughing. The guy taking himself way to seriously on a motor skooter and Keith yelling “F*CK YEAH!!” 😂
Totally Leo and David from Too Many Zooz!
I had the same thought too about Too Many Zoos. I matched with the saxophonist on tinder while they were touring in my city years ago lol
It’s too many zooz!
This video was fun but as a tourist my friends and sister actually do look at food places that have high reviews/ locals suggest. I feel like a lot of people do that when they travel so they get their moneys worth so that would’ve been relatable. Basically, I feel like Alexandria was right from the start lol
Good point. Tourist places tend to be the first google results and super popular, not just a place you wandered into.
Anyone notice how much more smiley Alex was once Ned showed up
Not to assume too much, but I imagine maybe it was a "hey, we're about to lose our partners, and also all our friends and co-workers hate us, and we both might get fired, but at least i have you!" or something... too bad from Ned's official statement he seems like he had no intention in carrying on once the jig was up.
@@Komaesa I agree, his statement did say this, but it could just be for public. We don’t know what’s going on with everything in detail. Maybe they will end their affair seeing the blow up, but personally I am not going to trust his “note” until otherwise is seen.
Though, seeing how bad this blow up was, I do feel like they would potentially end it, but not for the right reason. If they weren’t found out, I don’t think they were going to end any time soon. Just my thoughts.
I actually sincerely hope this video format is repeated in other cities. I appreciated the vibes and it had just the right amount of Try Guy vlogging chaos without being overwhelming. Also, I feel like someone owes Alexandria a nice coffee or something for her worry. 😅
Well She broke Ned and Ariel Family apart and got her and Ned fired so no don’t owe her anything 😠
As a New Yorker I cannot handle that he actually stopped at those places. I would never. I would never!
Seriously. I’ve lived here my entire life and have never been in any of those spots; they always look so disgusting and dirty.
100%
I grew up in Greenpoint Brooklyn and grew up eating pizza from a hole in the wall place around the corner by the library. Fantastic pizza, garlic knots, and my mom's fav baked ziti. No one did it like them and haven't found anything that topped it. They are unfortunately closed now but glad I had my boyfriend try their pizza during a trip years ago. He also says it's the best he's ever had and we reminisce often of it.
Me either!
As a Chicago boy he should do the same thing in Chicago to see if they're actually better
Most places you can’t just walk in and buy a slice though, takes like 45 min for a whole pie to cook 😂
Chicago isn’t really a “pizza by the slice” type of town.
the divide in these comments between the ones posted one month ago and in the last day is hilarious
Yeah I know right?! :'D I'm dying.
This is so original youtube I love it! Honestly these less high production type videos are SO fun! You feel a lot closer as a viewer - fan since Buzzfeed days and I love this as a style in amongst the other videos for the try guys!
Avoiding all the legit pizza spots is a skill lol
"Keith walks through the worst part of town trying every tourist trap"
I couldn’t stop thinking about Ned and Alex in this video and just came here to rewatch/remind myself. I felt the first time that Ned's energy was off and that he and Alex were near each other a lot and Ned was dressed "fancier" than necessary and all around the vibe was weird. I couldn't tell why, but now I'm just grossed out...
I'm just sorry Keith's video is messed up now, thanks to them. I can't not focus on THAT part of it...
The bot with the middle finger 💀
I’m genuinely upset on how bad the ratings are 😭😭😭
🤣🤣😁
They watched a Coldplay video A Sky Full of Stars while hungry then made this video
Pizza is too mainstream there’s more bad than good places here
