It knows how to make fun of itself

The show is good overall. It doesn't take itself seriously, and it knows how to make fun of itself.

Each episode focuses on the different member of the team, which helps carry the plot along. Each character is given just enough backstory for the viewer to care about their fate, without it distracting from the comedy bits.

The show does address some serious topics in esports and the gaming community as a whole. It's tastefully done though, and doesn't come off preachy.

I'm a fan of GameGrumps, and was pleasantly surprised to see Arin and Dan holding their own alongside the other actors. The acting is over- the-top, but it's done on purpose, the entire show is over-the-top. esports are over-the-top.

I really enjoyed the show, and am hopeful for a season 2.

score 8/10
