    Don't remember where I heard it, but either everything is fair game for humor or nothing is. Anything else is hypocrisy.

    This is pretty much all that needs to be said

    Oh also, because Ninja Snarl P brought it up:

    it's not offensive

    but it is offensively bad

    i always hear people complain about this show but geez, I expect cable to be a little more professional than a preteen's youtube video

    I think the real problem is that someone is watching G4TV.

    Indeed. We could all use more folky oversimplifications in our lives.

    It's clearly live and was unscripted. Basically just a bit of light joking-around banter, and here we are critiquing its comedic worthiness. Of course it's not comedy gold; do you think you're improv-worthy when you're shooting the shit with your friends?

    Do not ever read Homestuck.

    The naked centaurs would probably shatter your fragile sanity.

    If you're looking to criticize G4, there's about a thousand better examples of failure floating around out there, and there are more appropriate venues for your rage.

    Like YouTube.

    You'd damn well better be if you're on TV. This isn't some moron who's shooting the shit with her friends at a bar. I don't think anyone would care less if that were the case.

    Where does all the defensiveness over this come from anyway?

    You really ought to change your forum name. Honestly, it's making light of alcoholism, which is an incredibly serious disease that affects millions of people a year and quite frankly your callous disregard for something as serious as this offends me.

    When was the last time you watched a local news broadcast? The banter/jokes between segments on those are WAY worse than the video in this thread.

    I don't know what the premise of this show is, but it looks like a news sort of thing.

    Quit being a bunch of pussies. First you complain about censorship, then when someone breaks ever so slightly out of what you consider to be normal and acceptable, you shit a brick and I bet you wish that was censored. Go back to your knitting class you hypocritical old wenches.

    EDIT: Really I guess it's just Sol who is a silly goose. Were you raped as a child?

    I wasn't offended at all. I actually laughed at the joke(s).

    It's basically a shitty tech version of the daily show, but twice as long. News segments, banter, and 'funny' pre-recorded skits.
