You should use that more, and you are a kick ass artist!

Well, that was a rare treat. Not sure how often we'll see these, but I imagine that a bunch of others'll be getting their share soon.

The opening was a little "meh," and the ending was too, but the meat of it was pretty funny. I loved all the puns. I don't think you'll have trouble coming up with material for other characters. Heck, you could probably even explore Mario again in the future, and just do other facets of his life (family, friends, etc.). If this goes well, I may have a new favorite series after Linkara and Nostalgia Critic.

Agreed, although speaking as an Englishman the Cockney accent was terrible Doug!

Very funny! Where do you get these wonderful ideas! Are you some kind of freaky genius?

I definitely like the quality of the backgounds in this new series(?)!
Kept it simple and black, and I enjoyed the shots of the table with the hand drawing with only the table fading into the black. Very nice.
I hope this is a new character segment that sticks around and only gets more interesting as he progresses.
Will you be able to set up any bar background with all the fancy bottles and being well lit behind you at all in the future? Some shots like that would look nice if you can get a good set made!!
I always envision you and the Nerd in the future working together on some sort of variety TV series that shows each of your characters in short skits or panels and segments. I hope there would actually be a future like that for you guys!! I know I would watch it.

The execution was alright, but I thought it would be similar to that 90s reality show "Taxicab Confessions" and maybe involve some interaction with the troubled character. It would be funny to see Mario looking depressed and ranting about his relationship issues. Maybe its something to think about for the next episode. On the plus side, I never realized that you had such mad drawing skillz. You truly are resilient

Nice cockney accent^^ You really are proficient with accents, my favourite being your imitations of a Received Pronunciation British accent in your NC reviews !

As a Metroid-fanboy, I was really happy to see Samus in the opening-sequence. I wonder if you'll have an "interview" with her sometime as well?

So that's why you had WoW on your comp month before!

I liked it, and Doug indeed have good drawing skills (if he draws it himself, I mean, we didn't saw him draw directly) but unlike the others, the accent kinda bother me, as I have much more difficulties to understand doug now
