G4 Talkback - Code Monkeys "The Woz" and "E.T." (Series Premiere)

You know, I'm impressed considering this is from the guys who made Minority and Crank Yankers (I thought ads were supposed to make people want to watch...). It wasn't completely awful. Really crude, but I actually enjoyed the rare moments they decided to write jokes that were based on games or clever dialogue. Too bad those were few and far between.

I'd watch it if I ran across it, but I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to catch an episode.
 
I enjoyed it. The jokes were alright, but I love the animation style. It's practically a clone of River City Ransom. Finally G4 has something I'll watch besides X-Play.
 
Okay. It's been a while since I seen the premiere (saw it on my DVR on Thursday), so here's my thoughts. It was funny. Sure, some parts were offensive, but I wasn't offended. I'm suprised they got Steve Wozniak to guest-voice. I like that the show was also a video game, with the top screen changing and showing the health/items/weapons/players/odds/etc. I also like how those boarders changed when the scenes were inside BleecoVision and Apple with its Mac OS look.

Overall, I give both eps a 4 out of 5. It was good, but it's not brilliant. Still watch it though.

Coming soon: The talkback thread to the next episode (with special guest voice Nolan "I created Pong and Chuck E Cheese's" Bushnell) and every video gaming/geek reference in each ep (Both episodes are still on the DVR)
