New fans! What should we watch? Long time fans suggestions wanted.

I recommend Pop Fiction wholeheartedly. It's one of their best shows back at GT.
-
Pop Fiction and the Retrospectives are big ones for me. I also really enjoyed Bonus Round, Final Bosman, Invisible Walls, and once in awhile Pach-Attack (though those are more current events type shows).
I also really liked the Screwattack stuff that GT hosted back in the day. Honestly I stopped regularly watching a lot of GTs shows in the last few years and mostly tuned in for E3 and stuff. Been watching a lot more EZA

For anyone who is a fan of Tabletop Escapades, I highly recommend the GT series Tabletop Adventures. Much like Escapades, Adventures follows a party of unlikely heroes on a quest to save the world, all the while trailing of the main quest and trying to keep Huber from killing himself and the whole party. It stars Ian as the Wood Elf Druid Laila, Kyle as the Halfling Rouge Andry, Huber as the Half-Orc Fighter Hogger, Elyse as the Halfling Bard Pervince, and of course Ben as the DM. Tabletop Adventures came about towards the end of GT and is one of the best shows they ever produced, and in my opinion it is a must for anyone catching up on the GT archives. Also as a bonus there are the stand alone Fiasco episodes, which are fantastic in their own right. The complete archive of Tabletop Adventures is available here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLebTrVJAp3ahpv9S2MKVuXMUIuj1SEBGa

Even though there's only three episodes, and it was technically a part of Mandatory Update, I've got a soft spot in my heart for Opinion Yell.

One of my favorite streams at GT was the Until Dawn Pajama Party. Every member of GT assumed the role of a character trying to survive the night. If you missed this gem here is a link to the full playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPwGZLDwtUrJ7v-NhMmVXZxfhLDFpfbuN

Go through The Final Bosman and Huber Hype. Both are a series of short episodes and are great to have on in the background when playing games.
-
Brilliant thread!
As others have mentioned, what really made me watch GT were the retrospectives, The Final Bosman and in the end I picked up Huber Hype before they went down. Then also their E3 cover have always been the best! I mean jus watch their reactions from FF 7 and Shenmue last year!

@crimilde I made through all these and wanted to thank you for the great suggestion.

@descendfromgrace Awesome. I'm very glad you enjoyed them!

How has no one mentioned buttons yet? It's BUTTONS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wejHuzvO3x8
Also, all of the Bossy Awards shows are hilarious parodies of GOTY shows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oihPpByV-9M

They should make more episodes with Scrumbers tournaments, that game is INTENSE

@Lucied Those were great! Thanks for the links.
-
I loved the GT pod cast also Mandatory Update and alse The Final Bossman. I think I was is one of the stories. To tell the truth I love all their work.
-
@Smartzke That was hilarious! Thanks for sharing that.
-
Thanks for this thread guys!!
Sadly I got into GT very late because growing up I had terrible internet so I never really did anything online. I only just got into last year now that I think about it right before they shut down :( A friend at work showed me The Final Bosman and I loved it. (I actually didn't even realize there were other shows until later haha) I was so sad when I saw the Last Final Bosman I was like NO I JUST FOUND YOU :'(
I'm so glad they're back <3
They're awesome and so is the community!
-
FFVII Full Play through.
Ben, Brad and Bosman at their best.
-
People have recommend a lot of the good shows already, not sure if BackTrack was mentioned but that is certainly worth watching and of course any and all of the Retro's. Ben's full playthrough stream of RE3 is also pretty legendary. Sorry don't have any links but there are all pretty easy to find on YT. :)
-
Beside all of the brilliant stuff already mentioned, I'd like to plug all of the Full Playthrough Fridays streams - just be sure to take a month or two off to watch it all :P But yeah, I'd really want them to come back at some point: 2-3 Allies getting together, playing a game from start to finish in one sitting = maximum jolliness.
