Strong Bad Creators Interviewed

Posted by timothy on from the oh-one-thirty-oh-three dept.

Bill Hughes writes "The folks over at ResExcellence have posted an interview with the Brothers Chapman, the two guys who create and run the Homestar Runner/Strong Bad web site." If you have not seen homestarrunner, prepare to be baffled and amused. This site has mostly justified Flash to me :)

  1. Oh no.... by Chester+K · · Score: 4, Informative

    Homestar Runner is being slashdotted? Just what we need... they just got through a month of having server trouble due to increasing traffic, and now with all the new viewers they're going to get by being mentioned here, looks like we'll be in for another month of slow page loads on Mondays.

    That said, Strong Bad emails have quickly become a weekly tradition in the office. We all gather around every Monday to see the newest installment, and we're rarely disappointed. If the Brothers Chaps don't end up with a TV show before too long, I'll be surprised.

    I hate to be such a blatant advertisement, but bandwith can get pretty expensive, and these guys are paying for it with the profits from their online store.

  4. Easter Eggs... by Malic · · Score: 4, Informative

    I hate to be the cause of a Slashdot Effect at Homestarrunner.com again but...

    ...you people DO realize that almost ALL Strong Bad Email's have easter eggs in them at the end? Try clicking around things on the screen at the end of a SB Email movie...

    Can you find them all? ;)

    Shameless Plug : The Brothers Chaps like http://www.robotbastard.com - could Rob Schrab and the Chaps work together someday? Who knows...?
