Dead Pixels

I can see this series being re-commissioned, it will be interesting to see how these characters develop. The first couple of episodes seem a little forced, but by episode 3 I was really quite enjoying it. If you haven't seen it, give it a try. Well worth a watch.

Have just watched the 1st episode. Absolutely hilarious.

The in game antics balanced against the gamers real lives - spot on.

Can't wait for next week.

I'm not an MMORPG player but I have dabbled in the past, as well as being a huge single player gamer. Gamers need to get behind and support content like this, because outside of Go 8-bit I can't think of anything else gamer related on TV, despite gaming being a bigger market than films now.

The acting is good, and the interactions between the different characters are amusing, but Russel steals it for me. Plenty of laugh out loud moments for me (and my husband who isn't a gamer!) and that's rare for me with comedy. There is lots of satire here and it's a genuine shame there weren't more episodes in the series.

This series is funny and rude and ultimately hugely enjoyable. It's about people coping with their boring jobs by existing in their favourite violent game show as graphic animes where they live their "real lives". Loved it to bits

This show is about two misanthropic, self-loathing recluses who spend all their time playing an online game together and treating their friends very poorly.

It's not bad and it has some really funny moments, but overall it lacks the depth and variety of, for example, Fresh Meat. The childish, petulant and selfish behaviour of Megan and Nicky gets a little wearing and repetitive and you do wonder why Alison or Russell would put up with them at all. In particular, Megan's incessant graphic and generally quite weird descriptions of how horny she is just aren't very funny.

In summary, it's somewhat enjoyable but quite forgettable.
