I get a 404 when I go there, I was wondering what was taking them so long

Well it does make sense since both parties went their separate ways.

Would've been nice to have a small mention of that though rather than just happen, thouygh i spose you can;t blame them. Based on the page going down i'm inclining towards Ec winning the IP thing.

Well they couldn't keep the page up forever. You can still see more Extra Credits on youtube.

All the episodes are still on the Escapist, they're just doing the same thing they do whenever a series ends regardless of what terms it ends on. You can't really judge anything from it.

Edit:

Oh wait, all the eps are listed but not found. Never mind.

I guess they finally got over it. I wonder who won the IPR fight, though.
Based on what's been happening on youtube, I'd say the Extra Credits team has their IP back.

I mean, they're still releasing new stuff, they mention being in talks with some other website, and... Oddly enough, the Escapist seems to be putting old Extra Credits episodes on youtube as well.

All of which kind of suggests they've come to some kind of arrangement and the escapist has given up all Extra Credits related IP, (and apparently agreed to release the old episodes as well.)

We all knew it was going to happen eventually with the whole "Incident" that happened awhile ago. sad that it played out as it did but I never really watched it so it isn't a huge loss to me but the whole incident left a bad taste in my mouth.

Extra Credits has their own channel on youtube but is only posting episodes that they have made since they started it, but I bet that they will make a playlist of all their episodes that they had posted on the escapist in the not too distant future.

I thought I'd see this topic pop up eventually.

*shakes head*

Terrible for both parties really. This could have been avoided somehow.

Why is it they completely obliterated the page for Extra Credits yet still maintain a whole bunch of long finished (at least on the escapist) shows like Unforgotten Realms

Maaan, I used to enjoy playing their videos to torture and annoy my friends. I suppose it's back to Movie Bob for that... although admittedly, he seems to at least be aware of his short comings in a lot of his video making, and has actually stepped up his game. Huh, guess there's always That Guy With The Glasses for terrible reviews and online videos at least.
