TGWTG "Nostalgia Critic" / Doug Walker, Rob Walker, Mike Michaud, Mike Ellis, Holly Christine Brown, et al - The Incompetent Predator-Protecting Upper Management of Channel Awesome, Doug Still Not That Funny

[Flying_with_the_Penguins]

Sursum Ursa, another minor producer, also left yesterday. There's so many leaving I can't keep track of them. She was gone in the last screenshot I took and I didn't notice.

That makes 23.

Also, out of curiosity I checked CA's dropdown:

• Screen Crashers: No uploads since December.
• Shaun K: No uploads since February.
• Gaming Wildlife: No uploads since January.

So in total they have 13 active producers left including Doug.

E: Also, Brandon Tenold's most recent video on the site is from March 19 despite his last review being 4 days ago. He has not left.

Just a minor amusing detail I found, but there are no actual music reviewers left under their "music and misc" subsection. In fact the only one who's still producing content is some nobody named "ask Lovecraft", whatever the hell that is.

Leslie Rice? I forgot that he even joined Channel Awesome. They did jack all to promote the guy.

Edit: I knew him as Terror Obscura and I didn't recognize his name when I first saw it.

One could make the argument Lewis wanted to bring Liz to the wrap party but they told him not to, but if that was the case, he didn't speak up and stand his ground.

I'm shocked he didn't stand his ground. I thought he was much like Brad and was getting away with a lot more than other producers. In any case, makes me really feel for Liz. She really got a shit deal overall with CA.

 

[Armchair Psychologist]

I know she's a member here but she really shouldn't try that again.

Wait seriously? She's a Farmer?

 

[Doctor Stan]

Hey, how can we ad the google docs to the OP?

 

[BrunoMattei]

Wait seriously? She's a Farmer?

Yes she is. She showed up in the Linkara thread and answered questions regarding his shit film.

Nash is still listed despite being purged.

It was suggested to me they have to manually delete everything one-by-one because their website is so poorly designed. All other departures return "Page not found" because the subcategory is erased while Nash's returns "No results" because it still exists but had all its posts deleted.

It begs the question what stopped them from making the two extra clicks to delete it.

Guru Larry and Niggeled Nieto will probably stay on without knowing or caring about the drama.

There's a borderline meme about Guru Larry constantly being in the YouTube comments of obscure drama videos. I swear he keeps tabs on all this shit. I wouldn't be surprised if he read KiwiFarms.

Larry was a contributor on ED and did edit either the CA or Nostalgia Critic page. I remember he was criticized by the ED people for editing the page and adding the comment "Bombed worse than Viet Nam."

Nope, it's Marzgurl. She's enthusiastic and the lyrics are good but that's not enough, is it?

as I said, my problem was with the performance. Lyric wise the thing was okay. Certainly creative enough.

Heck, personally I could only come up with this based on "I know him" from the same show:

Oceans rise, the subscribers leave,
Walker hasn't even time to grieve.
All alone, he is done.
Channel Awesome's falling into pieces,
for the kiwis that is fun.

I'm reading Iron Liz's contribution and holy fucking shit. The last anniversary movie was a massive shit show when it comes to organization or respecting the workers. Every other production, even a student film, wouldn't make these kinds of mistakes. Not even a Tommy Wiseau or Vitaliy Versace or Neal Breen or even Troma pictures would fuck up this bad. If you are paying people next to nothing then you at the very least make sure they are fed and have access to water and the essentials.

How they had PA people stay on board is just insane to me. Troma would routinely have people walk out because they hired people off the street who didn't know what they were doing. Also, Troma would fuck people over when it came to getting paid. But the CA people are somehow worse than Troma.

Edit: one other thing. Troma has insurance on their productions.

Think about this: Channel Awesome is worse than the company that put out such classics as Demented Death Farm Massacre and Bride of Killer Nerd. Troma is considered the absolute bottom of the barrel in the film industry. A friend of mine who cast Lloyd in a movie of his warned me not to work on Poultrygeist because "Troma is seen as being worse than porn" on a resume.

She's clearly not a singer... and should not attempt to pretend to be one again...

Anybody got a link to the fan doc? I put Lupa and Co's "Not So Awesome" doc in the OP in a section labelled "Update" but I believe the fan doc needs to be put in the OP along side it so we cover all the bases.

Just a reminder that Doug's fanbase can be just a cringeworthy as him, if not more so.

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

Weird. I was watching TGWTG since 2009 and I have no idea who this Asa guy is tbh.

 

[Ponderous Pillock]

With TJ/TheAmazingAthiest contributors and fans probably railed on him back in the day both publically and privately saying his concerns were sour grapes because he got dropped/"departed with apologies" or whatever.

It's nice watching this trainwreck gather speed. Makes you wonder if Doug will have to address it in a video, or if Michaud will just fuck off and play Far Cry 5 some more and do fuck all.


....probably the latter.

"Mike, Mike, the internet is blowing up about us. They're calling us incompetent & also now everyone is leaving because the name of our company is now mud."

[Dolphin Lundgren]

I'm not sure it's worth posting but fuck it.

Malcolm Ray claims that Mike Michaud has improved since those Channel Awesome drama stories. The crappy faux apology says otherwise.

Mike beat up Malcolm and set fire to his fursuit didn't he?
