Finally, a show that the gamers among us can relate to. Felicia day has done an amazing job with this series. The characters are near perfect parodies of the different personalities you run into in gaming culture, and each is so brilliantly broken that you cant help but fall in love with them. Codex, played by Felicia Day, has a dry and self deprecating sense of humor that any of the socially awkward among us will find ourselves relating to only minutes into the first episode. Zaboo, played by Sandeep Parikh, is nothing if not unique and brings a sense of awkward naivety to the show that parodies the popular stereotype of gamers perfectly. Felicia Day was an avid gamer for years and captured the culture with a perfect mix of accuracy and satire, and anyone who has ever so much as dipped a toe into the world of online gaming will find themselves hooked. **It started out as a web series, so the episodes are quite short. I recommend watching them on Netflix, where they have been compiled into hour and a half long "seasons" with no having to choose new episodes in between.

As a Buffy fan, and after seeing the adorable Felicia Day in the hilarious Joss Whedon Internet show, "Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" (she also had a recurring role in the last series of BtVS and also appeared in Dollhouse), I then found out that she had created her own web show, so I knew I had to check it out - and when I finally did, I was not disappointed.Day has created a wonderful set of socially inept characters whose real world lives revolve around their their un-named (MMORPG) Internet game, which they play as a group, but separate from each other from their own homes.Prior to one group member ("Zaboo") tracking down Day's character ("Codex"), in order to express his undying love for her ( although he only knew her on-line character and her avatar), the group had not met each other in person, so as actual, social interaction increases, so does the scope for comedy.An admitted on-line gamer, Day's witty and well-observed set of otherwise eclectic characters and their gaming foibles, whilst also being joyfully stereotyped, are a great bundle of laughs - but that is also largely down to the superbly cast set of actors playing each of the main characters.Such is the skill and ease with which they have assumed their roles, I found myself checking to see what they had all been in before, feeling sure that I had seen them in something, but instead found - to my very great surprise - that it simply was not so. For me, that is unheard of, and I feel slightly chagrined, but it is also a testament to the cast.Jeff Lewis ("Vork") and Sandeep Parikh ("Zaboo") in particular, may well find that further fame awaits them, but as Day herself has stated, she had to turn to writing in order to find the sort of regular acting role that suited her, blaming and also thanking the very people who had constantly rejected her for parts. I don't think I've ever used the phrase before in my life, but, "You go, girl!"Day successfully and skilfully avoids making the script and stories too reliant on gaming or Internet jargon, and as part of the extended "Whedon family", there are distinct traces of the Whedon style and humour in there too, all of which helps also to give the show a broader appeal than you might imagine, if you were, say, a Hollywood TV Exec wanting to hear a pitch for a new TV show, and you were told about this before it had been made on the shoestring budget that it started with.As I said up top, I went from Buffy to Dr Horrible to this, and will undoubtedly now check out "The Jeff Lewis 5-Minute Comedy Hour", so I have no doubt at all that Joss Whedon is looking on to all this very proudly - and rightly so.

For a web series, it's quite addictive. I'd watch one and be thrown into the next episode, then pretty soon the next series.The Characters are roughly well established, each on a different level of obsession that makes most of them annoying, and at the same time question your own sanity because you are aware you could easily be like them....'due to the fact you watching it online in the seclusion of your own room'You learn the traits of every character, and find them predictable when it comes to upcoming scenarios...though one character leaves you wondering how the does an attractive trendy person like you end up trapped in your own room?Two characters you will come across you will take an instant dislike to, immediately (you will know who I mean) But continue to watch to see how others cope with them.

Have you ever had one of those moments where you've said to yourself, "I just need to take a step back, rethink my life and make some changes. Maybe unplug for a while, get out and breathe some air that hasn't gone through the processor fan of my computer and enjoy life again"? These people haven't. This video is fun and watching makes me realize that I truly have grown up.Plot: Vork Gives control of the guild funds to Bladezz in hopes that it will make him a stronger player. Bladezz then posts a video blackmailing the other members and steals the money. The series is spent trying to get Bladezz to give back the money. In a secondary plot, Zaboo becomes stalker obsessed with Codex and moves in with her; much to the dismay of Codex and Zaboos' mother. Zaboos mother comes to retrieve him and well….Don't want to give away too much of the secondary plot.The chemistry between Felicia Day and Sandeep Parikh is amazing. Comic timing is dynamic and leaves you wanting more at the end of each episode. Fans wonder how they can get involved in this. SUBSCRIBE!!! Its on Youtube. Watch it, love it, just don't live it!
