To be honest I think the show peaked after the squirrel king halo story. Every episode after that has just been one gimmick after another. I totally understand that you're trying to keep the concept from getting stale but the show is suffering from your attempts to create running jokes or random crossovers. Don't get me wrong I love this series and also appreciate what you are trying to do but please try to make your next few reviews as close to the original formula as possible. Don't worry you've only had seven episodes, the idea isn't stale yet. All that said KANSAS CITY MISSOURI was absolutely amazing :D

Do the writers of these actually think this is good? This is an insult to the English language. I know SquirrelKing means for his to be bad but idk about the others.
I think it would be cool if the Sage did do a good fanfiction one every once in awhile but I guess that wouldn't really be as funny.
I am still really confused what this fanfiction is actually talking about or the point of it but I guess there really isn't one.

That... What the hell was that?
How in the name of all that is good and holy could someone write something like that? It read as a cross between a phone book and a geography textbook of the mid-west.
Maybe the fanfic is a journal through which one could chart the author's mental breakdown. The more outlandish the chapters become, the looser the author's grip on reality becomes.
"Epic Voice Guy" was most certainly needed for reading that fanfic.

This was just aweful and nonesensical...
Maybe it was a blank fanfic sheet and an AI added place names at random?

Wow. I think I've seen fics like that. People just capitalize words like this:
Harry Went To The Store.
Oh and sometimes I've seen:
MARY PICKED UP THE POKEBALL AND OUT COMES PICKACHU!
So, seeing a story like that sadly doesn't surprise me. Good show, Bennett. I'm...wary about the next one.
Childhood memories being destroyed? That can't be good.

I suppose "Y'all" can be argued as being a pronoun, and "Mulcahy was as follows" appears to be just a random part of a sentence, but unless I failed to pay proper attention, all other cases of uppercaseness were just names. Pronouns are "I", "you", "me", "he", "she", "it", "they", et.c..
Curious how "The Lord Thy God" wasn't all upper case, while nearly all other names of characters, places and establishments were.
Yes, I just posted a comment about grammar while using the word "uppercaseness".

One thing I'm waiting to see here on MFT is a game show fanfic, and since Rule 34 was mentioned at the end of this ep, I'm thinking #8 might be the one.
Even as someone who's written, let's face it, some pretty weird fan fiction himself, I have to wonder what the hell some of these authors think they're doing when they even write these things, let alone publish them.

I certainly wouldn't want you to go insane from all the ALL-CAPS pronouns, so it's understandable that you wanted to quit while you were ahead.
Good thing I never did any fanfiction.
Still, your best episode so far was sort of either the DBZ/Anne Frank one, Squirrel King or the Linkara/Sage crossover.

I am still amazed that YOU managed to get through these bad stories...well here on TGWTG.COM there are many PEOPLE willing to listen to FANFICTION AUTHORS' crap while yelling to their MOTHER.
:D
