Thoughts on the Sept 25th, 2010 show:
-
Altogether solid show. Started strong with freeze tag, and kept good energy throughout. I was thinking about writing some notes on my phone on the games played, and devising systems for rating and note-taking, but I kept having to mentally revise my system when the games kept getting better, and I wanted to watch the games rather than take notes on them.
-
Though the game was successful, Panel of Experts showed Warren to be in serious poison mode. Everyone else had distinct, immediately accepted and hilarious characters that could have great answers. Warren's biologist I think was Warren, playing himslf, and not wanting to play the game. The audience laughed at his characterization, but as the final say for most of the questions, arguably should have been something different.

Wasn't Zoom In, Zoom out supposed to relate to sex somehow? The game worked, but the rules, John. The rules. :)

John / Mal: I like the framing device you guys use to build up a scene by yourself with more than one character. The "tch", followed by a hand sign of "one" or "two" or "three." Worked really well for the "death by Chuck Norris Stare."

Love letters went really well. Exemplifies how well the both of you work with the audience.
