    Oh man, if Thursdays have Paul and Quinns, PATV is going to be a weeklong pile of awesome.

    The part with "I'm a member of the Nazi party and I like-" was amusing.

    women with British accents, do they come with the game too?

    How did you guys manage to get through that game without calling your friend Major Tom? Honestly.

    Ok, this was seriously my favorite episode of this series. Literally laughing out loud at sections. Paul, Quinns, and their supporting cast of friends all showed their general sense of humor in this with the banter and joking around. The normal scripted content is definitely funny, but mixing in a more natural back-and-forth like this episode really takes it to a new level. Well done. Also the game looks awesome...but not sure I could "marshal up a force" to play it.

    If you like this, you should check out their LP of Resistance: Avalon. Hidden role games are da best for watching.

    I thought they were about 14 until they were drinking at the end. I guess they could still be 14, but it's a bit less likely.

    Good show, however a small review at the end discussing quality and fun factor would be nice! :) How many hours did it take to get through that?

    Yessss, more SU&SD over here on PA, I was worried that the content would stop being posted here.

    This would have been much more interesting if I could understand anything they were saying when not looking at the camera. Subtitles for benighted non-Brits, please.

    Good stuff, and no subtitles needed. Even someone who doesn't have english as their main language(hi mom) can follow this easily. Good to see people having fun while they are playing :)

    So glad to see this show return, i love it and theres not enough good boardgame videos online. Paul and Quinns are witty and make anything fun with their commentary. This show however was long, tedious and lacked the format of the old shows. Quinns looks like hes now had too much drugs and the production value was really low. Boys remember to use tripods on more than the time lapse camera. Still look forward to more!

    I was also extremely happy to see this one come back. I love Tabletop, but this show has a different style and generally tackles games to large and/or complex for something like Wil Wheaton's effort. Paul and Quinn always look like they're having great fun, even when they talk about games they didn't like, and their jovial tone is infectious. Keep it up guys.
