Premiere of The Strangerhood

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the little-rooster-teeth-in-the-morning dept.

ack154 writes "As previously mentioned here, the guys and girls over at Rooster Teeth Productions (the creators of Red vs Blue) have started a new series based on the Sims 2. As of last night, Episode 1 has officially hit the download servers. Currently available in DivX, WMP, and QuickTime formats, the first episode weighs in at just over 5 minutes. " As a big RvB fan, I'm looking forward to seeing where this one goes.

    They're used to it... from one of the FAQs:
    Q: Why aren't the videos bigger?
    A: The videos are 320x240 to save bandwidth. Our first series, Red vs Blue regularly chewed up 170 Terrabytes of downloads in a month.
    IN A MONTH?!

    Agreed. Granted it's the first episode, but I hated everything from the Friends-like interstital music to the inspid white man as Mr. T attempt at comedy. It just wasn't funny, nor does it set up a good reason to watch further episodes. The writing is just... well, awful. It's not even up to My Mother The Car standards.

    If it didn't have the "Rooster Teeth" name attached to it, I'd venture to say that most people wouldn't give this series another chance.

    Speaking of which, I'm going to go watch a Venture Bros. episode to get the bad taste out of my head. I laugh at least once watching that which is more than can be said for the Strangerhood.

      Thanks guys - We appreciate the feedback. As you can see, MirrorDot does (try to and usually succeed at) grab the relevant audio/video/image content. So far so good - working like a champ (usually). :)

    I emailed them about BitTorrent and the reply was...

    "We used to do Bit Torrent in Season One. Turned into tech support hell. Then after we taught people how to use it, it was the number one way people pirated the Season One DVD. All in all, it sucked."

    Way too much exposition.

    OKAY WE GET IT nobody knows who they are. Must you tell us 90,000 times? You can do that while in the process of doing something else, like entertaining us. *

    To kill time before NaNoWriMo, let's all make our own Sims powered sitcoms. Ready. Set. Go.

    * Yes, I am being overly critical, this is what slashdot for isn't it?
