I most excited about Tales from the Table. It reminded me of The Gamers, but has some nice differences.

One thing I did notice, a lot of people voted just based on the humor of the show, if it made them laugh they voted.

I feel it was a little more complex than that, if it wasn't it would be called The Escapist Comedy Film Festival.

There were videos I didn't vote for because they weren't funny, but only because I saw that it was the only premise behind the video, and since it was the only reason behind the video and I didn't laugh I didn't vote.

There are other premises I saw in other videos, like story (and not a just for laughs type of story). With Tales from the Table, I see more than just laughs coming from it.

I think the true test for a show like Tales from the Table will be keeping interest in moments that aren't suppose to be funny. Moments like I have seen in shows like Doraleous and Associates, that I realize aren't really meant to be funny, but then they get viewers that comment that they didn't like an episode because there were parts that weren't funny. It is those times is that I just smile and because it never ceases to amaze me what people can miss about a show, because they type class it.

So here's to something more in these shows than just comedy.

I think Sonic Doctor hit the nail on the head so to speak, and I was surprised to find that "Tales From The Table" got so few votes. It had excellent acting (and a special mention for great bitchiness in a record time from the Girlfriend, kudos!), it was nicely shot, had a good pace. I'm definitely hoping that this one will be turned into a full show.
I didn't really "get" Creature Caster Masters, maybe it's because I'm no fan of Pokemon. Did like the "Kiss the Floating Pink Chef" apron, though.
Show About Games Show had a few chuckles in it, and comes in second for me. I definitely liked the first sketch, the second one not as much, but I'm not sure how much potential it really has.
Anyhow, congrats to all three, nevertheless, as it is apparent that there was a huge amount of work involved. Kudos!

I don't know.....

I mean that was funny and all, but I'm going with Creature Caster Masters.
