TGWTG The Spoony One / Spoony / Noah Antwiler and Rachel Baker / @RaeAngel07 - The touching romance between a washed-up videogame reviewer throwing a decade-long pity party and his delusional Canuck stalker. #weaknotsick #donttellmehowtosulk

I always remember hearing stories about Doug and especially Lewis wanting to do more shit with him as Insano, and Spoony pushing back to try and keep the character from over staying his welcome.
That's pretty ironic given Dr Insano is one of the better characters to come out of the Channel Awesome crew overall, but Spoony probably made the right call given how bad the writing in all the Nostalgia Critic movies is.

Refusing to do anything with the character at all, ever again, was a less good call perhaps.
 
In fairness to Noah. He was right to be concerned about overdoing a character. Look at how many characters of Lewis have overstayed their welcome [including Lewis himself].
Yeah but when a character is popular that's what people want to see. People liked Dr. Insano and it was a guaranteed way for a video to get views if he was in it.

Like it or not Noah brought it on himself. I agree that having him all the time would result in the character getting stale but that's simply the nature of popularity.

i dont know if you're into linkara, but insaino is one of the main antagonists of his story lines, to the point where he just made his own version of him. dr linksaino

Stole this, but it is uncanny.

This I never understood. Why is Dr. Insano, a stock trope character, created and played by someone else, the main antagonist of his make-believe world? I mean surely if he liked the character so much he should have made his own mad scientist character instead of playing the same character note-for-note. I mean this is Lewis: he's retarded and he can't write worth shit; but if he's had a bug up his ass about being far more talented and creative than Doug, then surely a little bit of originality would have helped his case...

It kind of blends into Linkara's latent homosexuality. Did he just have a hard-on for Spoony?
 
I always remember hearing stories about Doug and especially Lewis wanting to do more shit with him as Insano, and Spoony pushing back to try and keep the character from over staying his welcome. Then again, he could have just thought their ideas were shit. Considering the way Lewis wrote him as a final villain in one of his arcs, I don't blame him.

And he was cunty to a lot of people for a lot of reasons. He was just a cunt in general.

It's been eons since I watched anything from Spoony (lol render queue) but my memory was that the skits continued to ramp up further and further the more popular he got and people were voicing their displeasure over it.

And yeah, he was a cunt in general, I just was recalling a specific interaction he had with folks about the skits.

I think that has more to with Linkara being heavily autistic than any particular fascination with Dr. Insano's character.

He wrote the character into his shitty Fourth Wall universe and he cannot write him out without violating his
All-encompassing obsession with shared universe continuity. It's why he's too retarded to properly read and understand a comic as anything but a garbled communication between the past and the present and a didactic moral play. It's his favorite feature of comics and what attracted him to the medium itself. Link getting into comics later in life because of easter eggs is example A of why DC and Marvel superhero comic storytelling became an alienating circle jerk over stories people liked as kids instead of containing actual energy and purpose.

He was dating a pre-op tranny(who looked more like a man than linkara) who was also on channel awesome(Iron Liz), who left him because Linky was more interested in playing with the pre-op dick than anything else in the relationship(and as such likely wouldn't be interested in them once they got their dick inverted into an axe wound).

I wouldn't even call him a tranny chaser at that point, he's just gay.

That's because Lewis can't do anything original. Everything he's done is derivative of something else.

It's because everything that happens in Lewis' skits are canon so when he and Spoony were doing a review of one of the Warrior comics, a comic based on the Ultimate Warrior, there was an accident in "hypertime" and Dr. Insano became Dr. Linksano and Linkara became possibly "Spoonkara".


Meaning that now Dr. Linksano is a character in Lewis' power fantasy universe.

Either gay or too bitch made to troon out himself so satisfied his fetish by dating one.

I might've missed this one, but Warthog is taking Spoony's advice not to read The Boys.

Well... he's not wrong.

The show is much more enjoyable than the comic book.

Has Rachel ever pushed back on something Spoony said? I wanna see what would happen if he suddenly became a groyper and it conflicted with her supposed leftism.
No. Spoony can do no wrong in her eyes. His videos are literally her happy place.

And glad that she's finally posting again. Was there any comments from her not only on Trump winning but Trudeau stepping down? Those seem like things she'd complain about.
 
The show fucking sucks.

I agree with Spoony on the comic being hateful and miserable, but that just kind of comes with the Garth Ennis territory.
I didn't say the show was good. I said it was much more enjoyable than the comic book. It's like instead of getting kicked in the balls you're just mildly annoyed by a fly buzzing about your head. Granted I've only seen the first season and I'm in no hurry to see the next one.
