The Guild

Posted by Stropp on February 25, 2008

Okay. I know I’m not always the fastest to pick up new things. There’s been a few TV shows that I absolutely love, that I didn’t watch until my friends had to sit me down and force me. Same with movies, and same with board games.

I’d heard a few comments around the blog community about The Guild, and hadn’t really taken a lot of notice. I was trawling through YouTube watching World of Warcraft Music Videos when I came across episode one. So I watched it, and then proceeded to watch each in turn.

All the episodes are posted up on YouTube, but I recommend going straight to WatchTheGuild.com. That’s the website for the show, and by going there you’ll help them out a bit.

The crew release an episode about once each month. The latest episode, seven has just been released in the last few days. Speaking of the crew, they’re all pretty much professional or semi-professional actors and comedians. It’s noticable. You can generally tell when non-actors try to act, and it’s not pretty - hilarious maybe, in a laugh-at-them-not-with-them sort of way.

Anyway, if you haven’t seen the guild yet, I recommend having a view. Provided of course you can laugh at the gaming stereotypes portrayed in The Guild. I can. It’s really funny.
