ua-cam.com/video/4R1WPK3u8II/v-deo.html dorkly.mp3 That reminds me of the Super Mario Land animations, actually. They're not necessarily good, coming from the same irk as other Newgrounders who made edgy Mario animations, though I can't help but still find them mildly funny. Maybe just the nostalgia in me, but yeah.
The only Dorkly thing that I remember that also made me laugh months ago was the powerup swapping episodes, the premise of video games having the wrong powerups forces you to be creative and they kind of delivered.
Its probably the only Series that ACTUALLY had something different to it and also executed it very well...kinda wish we got more of these type of videos tbh
The only Dorkly parody I ever laughed at was the one about Sonic OC's, mostly due to how accurate it was to how the Sonic fandom behaves, but that's about it. The rest of the time they go with the most obvious jokes imaginable or try and make it "edgy" for the sake of being edgy and making the whole thing feel like an overly long Family Guy cutaway gag.
I remember watching a Dorkly video when I was a kid. Because I didn't laugh, I assumed it was because I was too young, ignorant, and naive to understand the jokes and big kid words. I rewatched the same video when I was older and I realized why I didn't laugh. It was because the video was really unfunny.
They reuse the same mean-spirited humor at the end so many times. On the rare chance it doesn't end badly there is usually something implied to make it a bittersweet ending at best.
@Voltage, dragon guy He explained like usual in my opinion. It was just super contradictory because first he explained there were no alphas or betas but then used those two phrases when he was going for a "there will always be someone dominant in a certain setting and you can always be that person" , but then went full idiot and said that betas are actually superior in monkeys and ruined the whole point. So it was basically an all over the place video trying to disprove there aren't betas and also say that it's okay to be a beta... Almost in a way of saying that it's okay to be a nice guy that talks to a girl that sleeps with an alpha. It was really cringy and could have been done a hell of a lot better, had he not cucked out (no pun intended)
@@agent7142 Steven Crowder did a few vids on this, there's way too much wrong stuff to put into one comment. The "hurr durr walls dont work" was particularly cringey.
I rarely call something unfunny and laugh at the stupidest things. But Dorkly is so aggressively unfunny that I almost find it impressive. They take the lowest hanging fruit imaginable or explain/try to clarify obvious jokes or take what could have been a good joke and execute it in the worst way possible. It's astounding.
It CAN look good if the animator actually knows how to animate sprites properly like a real game, and doesn't just moves the arms and mouth around like a bad flash animation
Rotated pixels NEVER look good. They also have no consistency when it comes to pixel resolution a lot of the time and it makes me want to rip the scalp off my head.
the mario models they use are original though. they look nothing like the ones from super mario world though i do agree, dorkly isn't exactly competent animation, comedy or...anything-wise
@@floofusdoofus Not really, if you look it up the one their using is similar to the All-Star SMB2 sprite color-wise but that's it, plus Mario has a pretty simple design and already has a lot of different sprites from different games so it's makes sense that it could look like one from a different game Now have they made the sprite or is it an original one from the internet ?

@@MrSuperbeast92 My problem with Pokemon Ralphie is that since the start it goes to the extreme with the jokes and the protagonist is just plain incompetent being and adult while Rusty is...

Cynical and meta jokes can't work, unless they're done in a limited capacity, and in a really smart way. I think The Community (with Dan Harmon) does that very well.
Dorkly is like everything bad about video game humor from the late 90's and 00's: Shallow parodies, over reliance on forcing characters from kid friendly franchises in adult situations, forced swearing, parroting tired old jokes everyone has already heard, and reaaaaaally ugly sprite work
@Pokémon & FF fan .... This is a joke right? I'm not trying to be rude, but I legitimately don't know how a person even remotely familiar with how sprite art/animation works could claim this.
@Pokémon & FF fan .... USF2 isn't Sprite art. The highest fidelity sprite art to exist would be KoF XIII, the cost of which nearly bankrupted SNK, again. Nothing is blurred in Sonic Mania's sprite art. An example of blurred sprite art would be the filters Arc Sys uses for the BB, P4A, and Uni characters in the PS4 version of BBTAG, or the filters the recent Megaman Legacy collections have used.
At least the hosts are always creating original work and are constantly improving themselves behind the scenes. I will keep giving love to those nasty freaks.
I remember watching that smash fatalalites when I was young and got so pissed when Dr Mario gave link those pills because I was in love with the legend of Zelda still am to this day
@@TheCow-j1l Eh. They stated that they were young. And kids tend to be pissy and take it personal when they believe someone is going after something they like is under attack.
I remember fondly liking College Humor, I first got to them when I saw Dinosaur Office 3D on my Nintendo 3ds. I thought a lot of their stuff was funny, but their newer stuff-... not funny. I like Adam Ruins Everything tho. But, I've always hated Dorkly it isnt funny, and being a person who enjoys video games, the jokes are predictable. I'm always so speechless when people come up to me and be like "have you heard of Dorkly?" Cuz they want to share the videos they find funny with me. But, I always remember to let people like what they wanna like
Not defending Dorkly but just because something is predictable doesn't automatically make it bad or unfunny. Take Avengers Endgame for example; it's a given that any superhero media will always triumph over evil in the end. However, what we don't know is how they were gonna execute the story of Endgame to get to that point. It's all about properly executing something despite it being predictable.
@@nicholaschavez5006 I never said it being predictable had anything to do with it not being funny or bad. But, it being predictable makes it really boring. It's not clever, it's not witty, and it doesn't avert expectations. Also, their are plenty of movies where the "bad guys" win, even in superhero movies.
While I agree a lot of their videos are pretty awful like *Had an Assistant* videos, they also create imo some great content like the *Pokemon Rusty* / *Power Up Mix Ups* / *Video Game Agent* But you're entitled to your tastes, I still love Dorkly bits in general personally, especially due to the production value.
@@mp-lily7908 meh Sonic OC's have been done to death as well. Besides, every IP is gonna have fans creating OCs. What do you think Machinamists did and still do with SM64?
Dorkly is just like Cinemasins, Game Theory and Nostalgia critic, they started out great but then they started to lose their passion and just don't care anymore.
woah woah woah....i get Nostalgia Critic, but the other 2?? Cinemasins is making the exact same content they have been for years? I've never noticed a change. and with the Game Theory case i would argue the exact opposite. Game Theory makes a lot more sense, and is a lot better edited. The theories that get the most hate are a lot older ones like, Mario isEvil and Sans is Ness. Game Theory still puts a lot of facts and research in their episodes. Way more then they used to.
i think the same, like they actually can put an actual story with some unexpected events and interesting ideas, but they seem to not be interested in it
Quite honestly, I can't really blame Dorkly for coming across of repetitious in its deconstruction/self-aware humor. Stuff like that has been prevalent on the internet for so long that it's become a joke onto itself. Finding something new to make fun of is next to impossible nowadays because of that.
It's not so much that it isn't new material but the fact that he doesn't make it any more interesting. Almost all of his attempts are pretty half assed or low bar. You don't even have to be creative, Cr1tikal/Penguinz0 only really makes sex jokes and they're still more comedic than Dorkly's channel. Didn't he have a skit about the personified TV channels having a roast? And then the same thing with Mario? Roasts are pretty much the prime opportunity for everyone to get their jabs and memes in, the fact that he can make a video, which is supposed to be everyone razzing on each other, feel like sitting in a cubicle is astounding.
@@elijahbradley704 dang, i thought it was. its by machinima. I thought, but yet again, sonic for hire just... yeah. Old man sonic resembles old man sonic, so i guess dorkly copied machinima.
4:59 I feel like a good example of a well done fart joke would be from an early episode of adventure time when Finn and Jake went to the underworld to find death. I’m pretty sure me describing it would ruin it, so just you can just look it up if you care.
I got a good chuckle out of that one video where some people from Pokémon get stuck on "The Loopy-Doop", but that was about it. That one about how Daredevil should be called "Batman" worked well enough, I suppose. Heck, the first video I ever saw from them was the one where Tim from Braid tries to boast about how great he and all indie games are, and Mario keeps more or less accidentally knocking him down a peg with every point. That's... about it, I suppose. Though, I should also point out: Adam Ruins Everything was never good. He spits out false information as fact *CONSTANTLY.* Sinatra_Says in particular has made several videos pointing out the endless supply of times Adam flat-out lies on his show to push whatever he feels like.
@@avadoksorem2854 Mostly because with his old timey jokes (Like Mario being an Idiot who loves Spaghetti) SMG4 tries his best to explore around these jokes and make space for original jokes (sometimes within those older jokes) in a way that's ACTUALLY funny.
i dont understand their "pervy" angle with maneta. What about Roshi? Jaraiya? Or any other of the hundreds of pervy anime characters? people are getting to a point where they cant laugh or enjoy anything because it disrespects some culture or gender or fan of something. Its pathetic
I think people hate him because he's just a pervert and that's basically it. He also has a lame quirk too. He's like a younger master Roshi, but not as bad.
I've said this once and I'll say it again... You could argue that Dorkly's humor is...well bad (and you'd be right) but I think the biggest sign of thier lazyness is just how they go about animating/writing thier "skits". Other animations have...you know...things happening! Dorkly is just a bunch of characters standing in a room, having an awkward "funny" conversation (with usually no consideration for how to frame/time the scene ect.) a bit of swearing/gore plus the obvious joke you were expecting from clicking on the video...and boom! That's EVERY SINGLE DORKLY VIDEO EVER! NO EXAGERATION! People who like Dorkly don't want to think about thier entratainment, they just wanna see Mario get in a fight with Yoshi cause "that doesn't happen in the games right?!"...quality be dammed!
It’s probably because the jokes aren’t “haha this thing in a video game is absurd what if it was like real life and it hurts you and then you swear loudly” it’s “this thing in a video game is absurd, let’s make it even more absurd. And then scream loudly”
I really enjoyed this video, and you mentioned a lot of humorous and valid points. However, I was having difficulty comprehending a lot of what you said because you speak very quickly, and I have an auditory processing disorder. It would be great if you added subtitles to your videos, because they're very entertaining, and I don't want to miss anything.
@[GD] Annoe Lowbrow studios did, but if you search up the Sonic Dorkly bits, they're basically from the same animators and voice actors as Sonic/Hedgehog for Hire. So I assume the studio did the bits for Dorkly/CH as contract work(?)
I'm amazed that you didn't mention how some Dorkly sketches feel like they never actually watched, played or engaged with the media they parodied. There are a lot of examples of this (you named one with Mineta), but another highlight was when they chewed out Goku for sending his son to die fighting Vegeta during the Saiyan saga... something he never did as he spent most of the saga being dead, with Gohan acting on his own free will
As someone who likes Dorkly, I feel like I should say this; I find their jokes usually well-timed and don't overstay their welcome. If the joke is "Smash Bros is a dark concept when you think about it," for example, they have the characters talk in a way that builds on the joke instead of repeating the same thing, then they move to have a couple of gags of a similar/related topic, then they end the video. So many parodies I've seen just have one joke that should last for two minutes at best and somehow has 5 minutes of filler or repeating the same thing. The only exception I can think of is a couple of their Pokemon story series, specifically the one with the muscles Bidoof. I remember that one bugging me because it felt like it played out too long. But it's all a matter of opinion. If I hated the jokes, then I would probably feel like they last too long.
I hate Dorkly's pixel animations because they all use those stale/unappealing "Family Guy" mannerisms (i.e. head twitches and arm flailing). On a separate note, their Table Pop series can be pretty funny and creative at times, mostly because it's basically unscripted, unlike their terribly written and pretentious animated skits.
At least they understand something about humor. I've seen far worse attempts. Had to grin and bear it while dealing with people that make far worse attempts. Having one, polished trick can be good, as long as you know when to use it. Their problem is that their one trick isn't polished well.
"I used to like this channel at some point, then I looked back on it and realized how bad of taste I had, ahhhh" I think this is the thought process for most when they think about Dorkly. Also, can you increase your mic volume or something? I've watched some of your vids and this is the only thing that barred me from truly subscribing to you. You're entertaining but I don't want to be a live audio mixer when I'm listening to you.
The only good dorkly skits I remember are the two series sonic for hire, and Pokemon Rusty These had somewhat original characters, despite the prior being known characters, it wasn’t just “video games unrealistic”
Cut to what dorkly has become now and it's just milking the Pokemon sketch thing while other video game sketches is on a smaller channel that they don't advertise
I personally think some of Dorkly's videos are funny like one of their PUBG videos, a couple of their Pokémon videos, and the video they made after being layed off from CollegeHumor was really sweet, but that's just me. .... And then there's videos like "10 HOURS OF NON-RELAXING HEAVY METAL TO STRESS/CRAM TO" and "If Video Games were 10% More Realistic". Also I never knew CollegeHumor made Adam Ruins Everything (which is a show I do not like).
*How to make Dorkly videos*
1. Take a classic kid-friendly IP.
2. Add blood/gore
People think dorkly is groundbraking yet newgrounds has been doing the same thing years before.

Nothing is blurred in Sonic Mania's sprite art. An example of blurred sprite art would be the filters Arc Sys uses for the BB, P4A, and Uni characters in the PS4 version of BBTAG, or the filters the recent Megaman Legacy collections have used.
If Drawfee goes somehow unmentioned or worse is said to be as bad as Dorkly, I will take issue.

You sound like you have issues kid
I remember fondly liking College Humor, I first got to them when I saw Dinosaur Office 3D on my Nintendo 3ds. I thought a lot of their stuff was funny, but their newer stuff-... not funny. I like Adam Ruins Everything tho. But, I've always hated Dorkly it isnt funny, and being a person who enjoys video games, the jokes are predictable. I'm always so speechless when people come up to me and be like "have you heard of Dorkly?" Cuz they want to share the videos they find funny with me. But, I always remember to let people like what they wanna like
Not defending Dorkly but just because something is predictable doesn't automatically make it bad or unfunny.
Take Avengers Endgame for example; it's a given that any superhero media will always triumph over evil in the end. However, what we don't know is how they were gonna execute the story of Endgame to get to that point. It's all about properly executing something despite it being predictable.
@@nicholaschavez5006 I never said it being predictable had anything to do with it not being funny or bad. But, it being predictable makes it really boring. It's not clever, it's not witty, and it doesn't avert expectations. Also, their are plenty of movies where the "bad guys" win, even in superhero movies.
@@bingobunny7862 Mhmm, you didn't mention that but it goes without saying. I think you meant to say "subvert expectations".

While I agree a lot of their videos are pretty awful like *Had an Assistant* videos, they also create imo some great content like the *Pokemon Rusty* / *Power Up Mix Ups* / *Video Game Agent*
But you're entitled to your tastes, I still love Dorkly bits in general personally, especially due to the production value.
Those, Sonic for Hire and that one Sonic OC skit were OK.
@@mp-lily7908 meh Sonic OC's have been done to death as well. Besides, every IP is gonna have fans creating OCs. What do you think Machinamists did and still do with SM64?

Or the if Mario was owned by sega or if sonic was owned by Nintendo. The thing I really love about them is that they’re pretty accurate.
Yeah i really like Pokemon Rusty
Dorkly is just like Cinemasins, Game Theory and Nostalgia critic, they started out great but then they started to lose their passion and just don't care anymore.
That’s why you should never turn your hobby into your job
@@skibot9974 yup
@@Blackwolfninja89 can I humbly ask a channel
@@ancientbanana2449 what channel
woah woah woah....i get Nostalgia Critic, but the other 2??
Cinemasins is making the exact same content they have been for years? I've never noticed a change.
and with the Game Theory case i would argue the exact opposite. Game Theory makes a lot more sense, and is a lot better edited. The theories that get the most hate are a lot older ones like, Mario isEvil and Sans is Ness. Game Theory still puts a lot of facts and research in their episodes. Way more then they used to.

Dorkly: Let’s reuse the same video with bowser having sex with Mario characters over 5 times!
UA-cam: Genious!
Hey Jacob didn’t expect to see ye
“Pokemon rusty” was alright. That being said ya, most their stuff is interchangeable references preying on nostalgia more so then actual jokes.
i think the same, like they actually can put an actual story with some unexpected events and interesting ideas, but they seem to not be interested in it
Quite honestly, I can't really blame Dorkly for coming across of repetitious in its deconstruction/self-aware humor. Stuff like that has been prevalent on the internet for so long that it's become a joke onto itself. Finding something new to make fun of is next to impossible nowadays because of that.
It's not so much that it isn't new material but the fact that he doesn't make it any more interesting. Almost all of his attempts are pretty half assed or low bar. You don't even have to be creative, Cr1tikal/Penguinz0 only really makes sex jokes and they're still more comedic than Dorkly's channel.
Didn't he have a skit about the personified TV channels having a roast? And then the same thing with Mario? Roasts are pretty much the prime opportunity for everyone to get their jabs and memes in, the fact that he can make a video, which is supposed to be everyone razzing on each other, feel like sitting in a cubicle is astounding.
I like sonic for hire, pokemon rusty, and their pokemon parodies. That's it.
Hell Sonic for hire wasn't even made by them. You may be thinking of old man sonic
@@elijahbradley704 dang, i thought it was. its by machinima. I thought, but yet again, sonic for hire just... yeah. Old man sonic resembles old man sonic, so i guess dorkly copied machinima.
I honestly thought it was, too. I know that Dorkly still uses the same voice actors they had for Sonic, Tails, and Eggman.
4:59 I feel like a good example of a well done fart joke would be from an early episode of adventure time when Finn and Jake went to the underworld to find death. I’m pretty sure me describing it would ruin it, so just you can just look it up if you care.
"I thought it would be funny"
I got a good chuckle out of that one video where some people from Pokémon get stuck on "The Loopy-Doop", but that was about it. That one about how Daredevil should be called "Batman" worked well enough, I suppose. Heck, the first video I ever saw from them was the one where Tim from Braid tries to boast about how great he and all indie games are, and Mario keeps more or less accidentally knocking him down a peg with every point. That's... about it, I suppose.
Though, I should also point out: Adam Ruins Everything was never good. He spits out false information as fact *CONSTANTLY.* Sinatra_Says in particular has made several videos pointing out the endless supply of times Adam flat-out lies on his show to push whatever he feels like.
Dorkly needs to grow out of the fact that just getting normal videogame sprites and making them swear isnt funny
Its Like SMG4
@@soulfulbeats9457 except SMG4 knows how to be really damn funny.
@@avadoksorem2854 yeah
@@avadoksorem2854 Nah it's mediocre now.
@@avadoksorem2854
Mostly because with his old timey jokes (Like Mario being an Idiot who loves Spaghetti) SMG4 tries his best to explore around these jokes and make space for original jokes (sometimes within those older jokes) in a way that's ACTUALLY funny.
Dorkly feels like a video game version of Family Guy cuts now
Pokemon Rusty and Sonic for Hire were the only good things that came from Dorkly
Change my mind.
I've seen (and loved) Sonic for Hire but never seen Pokemon Rusty
Cthulublade It’s weird because I hate Pokémon Rusty but love Sonic for Hire.
Well, Sonic for Hire was never from Dorkly
Isn't Sonic for Hire from College Humor's animated stuff?
@@lulumew8235 Actually, Sonic for Hire is from the now-defunct Machinima.
Finally someone ranting dorkly!
i dont understand their "pervy" angle with maneta. What about Roshi? Jaraiya? Or any other of the hundreds of pervy anime characters? people are getting to a point where they cant laugh or enjoy anything because it disrespects some culture or gender or fan of something. Its pathetic
honestly Mineta is a great character. i just wish he wasnt so One-Note.
"Jaraiya"
That one hurts
People who hate charcters like these are either Anime America (no offense to them they're great)
Or they take it too seriously
@@Igneeka agreed.
I think people hate him because he's just a pervert and that's basically it. He also has a lame quirk too. He's like a younger master Roshi, but not as bad.

You could argue that Dorkly's humor is...well bad (and you'd be right) but I think the biggest sign of thier lazyness is just how they go about animating/writing thier "skits". Other animations have...you know...things happening! Dorkly is just a bunch of characters standing in a room, having an awkward "funny" conversation (with usually no consideration for how to frame/time the scene ect.) a bit of swearing/gore plus the obvious joke you were expecting from clicking on the video...and boom! That's EVERY SINGLE DORKLY VIDEO EVER! NO EXAGERATION!
People who like Dorkly don't want to think about thier entratainment, they just wanna see Mario get in a fight with Yoshi cause "that doesn't happen in the games right?!"...quality be dammed!

It’s probably because the jokes aren’t “haha this thing in a video game is absurd what if it was like real life and it hurts you and then you swear loudly” it’s “this thing in a video game is absurd, let’s make it even more absurd. And then scream loudly”
Just Stop: “Why are you booing me? I’m right!”

How to make a Dorkly video:
-Bend the laws of pixel art and rotate the sprites
Ehh id say adam ruins everything is slightly misleading due to cherry picked articles

I really enjoyed this video, and you mentioned a lot of humorous and valid points. However, I was having difficulty comprehending a lot of what you said because you speak very quickly, and I have an auditory processing disorder. It would be great if you added subtitles to your videos, because they're very entertaining, and I don't want to miss anything.
Thank you for clarifying this
How to make a dorkly video
1:pixel
2:weird animation
3:inconsistency except for voices
4:it’s dorkly humer
Let me play devil's advocate and say that Sonic/Hedgehog for Hire is the best original content that came out of these Dorkly game parodies
@[GD] Annoe Lowbrow studios did, but if you search up the Sonic Dorkly bits, they're basically from the same animators and voice actors as Sonic/Hedgehog for Hire. So I assume the studio did the bits for Dorkly/CH as contract work(?)
Hearing Just Stop say "Mario is very italian 27 he make-a da meatball" is funnier to me than an actual Dorkly video.
Fucking finally. Someone said it.
I'm amazed that you didn't mention how some Dorkly sketches feel like they never actually watched, played or engaged with the media they parodied.
There are a lot of examples of this (you named one with Mineta), but another highlight was when they chewed out Goku for sending his son to die fighting Vegeta during the Saiyan saga... something he never did as he spent most of the saga being dead, with Gohan acting on his own free will
Now they are "literal pokemon entries" the channel
Yep. It's sad how far they've fallen.
yeah pretty lazy, lost interest then
@@BBWahoo I'm sick of their Pokemon videos.
Dorkly was pretty much just shock value, the only character they ever had that got a giggle out of me was Eggman
I legit totally forgot about Dorkly's existence until I saw this video.
Thanks for reminding me how impressionable I used to be.
Some of their older shit was good.
Now they just aren't even trying.
Dorkly is amazing
As someone who likes Dorkly, I feel like I should say this; I find their jokes usually well-timed and don't overstay their welcome. If the joke is "Smash Bros is a dark concept when you think about it," for example, they have the characters talk in a way that builds on the joke instead of repeating the same thing, then they move to have a couple of gags of a similar/related topic, then they end the video. So many parodies I've seen just have one joke that should last for two minutes at best and somehow has 5 minutes of filler or repeating the same thing. The only exception I can think of is a couple of their Pokemon story series, specifically the one with the muscles Bidoof. I remember that one bugging me because it felt like it played out too long.
But it's all a matter of opinion. If I hated the jokes, then I would probably feel like they last too long.
I hate Dorkly's pixel animations because they all use those stale/unappealing "Family Guy" mannerisms (i.e. head twitches and arm flailing).
On a separate note, their Table Pop series can be pretty funny and creative at times, mostly because it's basically unscripted, unlike their terribly written and pretentious animated skits.
4:55 basically the entirety of minions
How to destroy this video in one sentence: *Humor is subjective*
Yeah man you’re attempt at a joke is pathetic.
My favorite video game parody ever is the tetris god by college humor "LINE PIEEEEEECE''
At least they understand something about humor. I've seen far worse attempts. Had to grin and bear it while dealing with people that make far worse attempts.
Having one, polished trick can be good, as long as you know when to use it. Their problem is that their one trick isn't polished well.
I used to love Dorkly until they milked those stupid if the pokdex entries were literal constantly and it’s so annoying and there is no variety
"I used to like this channel at some point, then I looked back on it and realized how bad of taste I had, ahhhh"
I think this is the thought process for most when they think about Dorkly.
Also, can you increase your mic volume or something?
I've watched some of your vids and this is the only thing that barred me from truly subscribing to you. You're entertaining but I don't want to be a live audio mixer when I'm listening to you.
The only good dorkly skits I remember are the two series sonic for hire, and Pokemon Rusty
These had somewhat original characters, despite the prior being known characters, it wasn’t just “video games unrealistic”
Video game parodies still thrive
Terminal Montage is basically the face of video game parodies at this point.
I would be the kid who would not shut up with the obvious puns
Cut to what dorkly has become now and it's just milking the Pokemon sketch thing while other video game sketches is on a smaller channel that they don't advertise
Well, Pokemon IS the highest grossing media franchise of all time, so that means more clicks for Dorkly. 🤷♂️
Dorkly isn’t bad it’s just not for everyone
I personally think some of Dorkly's videos are funny like one of their PUBG videos, a couple of their Pokémon videos, and the video they made after being layed off from CollegeHumor was really sweet, but that's just me.
....
And then there's videos like "10 HOURS OF NON-RELAXING HEAVY METAL TO STRESS/CRAM TO" and "If Video Games were 10% More Realistic". Also I never knew CollegeHumor made Adam Ruins Everything (which is a show I do not like).
Houndoom f*cking a Herdier... I need to bleach my eyes rq.
