This is seriously now... one of the best series on The Escapist. A true rival to Zero Punctuation.

Thanks man. I'm striving to have the best animated show on the site and I'm working my butt off to deliver. It's hard to compare my show with ZP since his is a review show and mine's an animated series. the only thing we have in common is being featured on the site. Not saying his stuff is bad or anything, it's fucking hysterical IMO. I would like to have Mr. Croshaw as a guest voice sometime. :)

I also appreciate UR for what it is. I'm not a big D&D or RPG fan so I feel some of the jokes go over my head, but it seems to have a nice fan following and that's all us creators can really ask for. :)

Well thanks for replying.

I drew the comparison with ZP in terms of quality and observing humor and I would say you're series is at least on par with Zero Punctuation, but then again his shows have been waning a little recently.

But I don't care for UR at all :D

Anyway, keep up the good work.

Sweet Jesus!

I did not see that coming!

I think I threw up a bit in my mouth...and my keyboard...and my moniter...

Superb episode, I hope you go a bit deeper with Gladis being an ex-gangsta.

Okay, remember me saying that last episode was bad?

Well, this time I laughed, really I did. Cuddles and his sheets with "HA HA HA HA" and "EPIC FAIL" made my smile, so did the whole thing with people staring at the show ;d

This was pretty damn funny and disturbing at the same time. A perfect combo! This show has me hooked now it is pretty damn funny especially the rapping at the beginning. xD

This eries is really starting to get better. There have been times when it's been too predictable, but this was the best episode so far.

That was wrong in so many ways, but so awesome. That was truly an EPIC FAIL!!! Will the next episode be like part 2 of this one?

From here on the series will become more episodic, with one episode leading into another. :)

I think this show has hit it's stride. That was unexpected and fantastic. please continue being disturbing.

Relationship drama for the Fallout generation.

Oh yes, definitely. I feel so sorry for Cuddles now. Please let him and Steve still be friends (sod Marty though...) :).

This show for me is a lot like "The Office" in terms of humor. It is funny and yet extremely uncomfortable at the same time.

I like

The part with cuddles showing cards at the window was hilarious. I'm looking forward to more of your show.

I have to say I'm not a fan of this series in any way, it's well drawn and I like the artist's work on Newgrounds but it's just very souless, the episodes seem to build up to a fairly boring or predictable pay off: everyone is eating cat doings or the gay zombie has an obscene story, and the comedy of the build up is in itself tired and not really pushing any buttons for me (spousal abuse or a cookery show with violence).

I'm not saying it's terrible, it just doesn't work for me although I can see that others may enjoy it. It all just feels terribly phoned in, in the writing that is, the art and animation is very good but the scripting is lazy and, at best, a hack...

I recommend sticking around for a few more episodes. It may surprise you.

I very much respected the way you challenged me last week so I challenged myself to give you a fair chance on this episode, and I don't regret the decision. It was a solid episode this week, a few genuinely funny moments, and your writing jumped in quality, while the plot was predictable you handled the comedy very well. Staple plots are fine if you can reinvigorate them with new energy or a fresh approach and you did both here, and I confess I loved your acoustic outro music, funny and poignant in one go.

Now I don't matter, I'm just one very unimportant person, and I'd need to see a few more episodes of this calbre to be fully sold but hopefully this is the beginning of an upward curve. However, you'd already got my respect with your response...

I loved the rap at the beginning and laughed heartily. Enjoyed the whole episode and enjoyed bits of others (mostly Cuddles). Can see, as you say, your getting to the meat of it. Im eagerly awaiting your next episode! :)

Oh jesus I was not expecting this. The beginning was quite funny with the rap. I knew Gladus was a gangsta. Then the middle oh god the middle. I had to just pause just as the disco lights came. I said out loud "No" but I knew it to be true. This was classic. I am so glad I stuck around for this awesomeness. I knew I had good reason two. And lastly poor Cuddles. He is my fave and it sucks to see him sad. However that song was very nice fitting.

EDIT: Holy Crap!!!!! I just realized. KnifeFight is most likely a character now and I am sure she might not like this. But who knows with a name like that she should be a perfect angel right.

Lastly that group photo with Cuddles holding "Epic Fail" should be a screen shot I was so awesome

I think you could have done a whole 30 minutes episode with this story line, hope they'll still stick together, they're funny as hell:) Cuddles and steve are awesome! Love your stuff =], maybe make cuddles hang out with the girl on the picture steve had, i'm sure you could do something with that ;) haha ! love the series
