Agreed. Seems like there's some harsh criticism levelled at this show. For me the pilot worked well because of the random quick fire gags, and this episode kept a similar momentum. LRR do long set ups and punchlines really well, I'm glad this is going in a different direction.Polock said:
This is well made stuff. But I think the audience is crying out out for consistent narrative. Three unrelated skits spliced together seems to detract from the overall experience. The people here like Loading Ready Run, which has one idea and plays it out in full for a 5-10 minute episode. Ten minutes after watching this however, I am already struggling to recollect what happened, as the three ideas came into conflict with each other, rather than blending together into a focused story.
Perhaps this is also a case of too much focus on production at the expense of writing. A lot of effort goes into a scene of only a few seconds, which is something you can't really afford to do on something so low budget.
Another criticism is that the audience has not been introduced to the characters in the way that most other series would introduce their characters. Here it feels as though it is just a collection of extras. Something like Doomsday Arcade was pretty eclectic, but it introduced the characters and stuck with them, allowing the viewer to connect with the show, and to keep watching.
I like what your doing but you need to nail down the basics before you start unpacking complex ideas and utilizing fast editing. Take this as just another hateful comment if you will, but I think if these simple issues were resolved then the show could gain momentum and build a fan-base, as opposed to simply attracting boo-boys as it seems to be doing now. I for one will continue watching the series. Good luck!

Lots of heard-it-before humor. All the jokes seem like they're trying way too hard to be funny. I could see every "punchline" coming a mile away. This show needs a miracle of a turn-around to last more than 2 months.
The jokes seem to go on for far to long. I did laugh at the pillow in battle scene.. maybe because it was short and too the point
I thought that the BBT parody was fairly obvious, not sure why people are hating on that. The pillow quest was a great idea and had me laughing out loud. RROD sketch wasn't that funny to me. It was an OK idea and the overly serious vibe was right but there just weren't really any funny parts to it (aside from the title of the show). Keep going though, this had enough laughs for a 5 minute video to be worth watching and I'm sure you'll get better with time.
Put the Pillow Quest Theme on iTunes and possibly an extended version as well.

Noble Pillow:"Fluff fluff fluff fluff fluff fluffly fluff fluff"
("I don't know what your talking about"}
I believe this episode is very well done.

It was pretty meh to be honest. The Pillow Quest was a bit funny but went on for a little too long like with the RROD segment.
Still looking forward for the next one, hopefully, it'll be better.

That. Was HILARIOUS.
I'm glad. Part 1 of Episode 2 was meh, but the second part was AMAZING. thus i gave them the benefit of the doubt and decided that i would check out ep 3 before deciding whether or not to continue watching the show (it has officially earned a space in my overly-organized bookmarks folder).

When was there a big bang parody? i guess they're just jealous of it, it figures.Ashoten said:
OT: That pillow is SO insightful!
