Basically the YouTube version of The Simpsons. It's a highly classic and influential online web show that I have alot of respect for. It is only made nowadays for the sake of financial obligation and keeping the Nerd "brand" alive so to speak. It is also much tamer nowadays too swearing wise because

To play the shitty games that suck ass he'd rather have.. a Buffalo take a diarrhea dump in he's ear

He's the angriest gamer you've ever heard He's the angry Nintendo nerd he's the a

James (my friend) loves the show but I do see the flaws based off the few episodes I watched from season two. I get his bit is he’s angry, but I think more subjective reviews would be nice, which is why my bread and butter is Scott the woz, which is like this but a bit more positive typically. Howev

This was my "covid show"
Angry Video Game Nerd is pretty hilarious at some parts and very rewatchable. James is a great host and really great at being in character. I have a morbid curiosity for horrible games and movies, so this show is my cup of tea. I do have some gripes however.
First up, we'

Season 1
fun start to the series my favorite review was the nightmare on elm street one. that first castlevania review is probably one of the most important youtube video ever published
Season 2
better than season 1 i feel like it got more over the top as it went on and that was fun to watch
Season 4
I say this unironically but season 4 of Avgn is probably the best thing that a YouTuber has made almost every episode is a classic with so many memorable lines plus the Castlevania episodes are peak
Season 1
This is probably my favorite youtube series. its fun and you can waste your time in AVGNs world. Some episodes are a lil too long and some are boring but most are enjoyable and super funny!!!
"THIS IS A LOADED PIECE OF BULL F@CK"
Season 2
in comparison to season 1 it's more entertaining and has more conceptually interesting episodes, definitely the better season so far but as a season of a show in general it's pretty decent.
Incredibly influential on my life! I’ve been watching AVGN since I was 8 years old and at 20
I still regularly wake up in the middle of the night to the long form season compilations on my TV thanks to youtube autoplay. The gold standard of early 2000s internet gaming content. Often imitated, never

not gonna lie- have not seen every episode (and by that i mean the latest stuff) and from what i have seen of that the quality and care and everything has decreased but still nothing beats being anxious about whatever and resulting to binging a bunch of avgn. many of these episodes are some of my fa

Honestly I never thought about loging this show on this app before!
This is one of my all time classic comfort food shows. Something I can put on anytime and use as perfect background noise. I watch multiple episodes daily at the minimum.
While the new stuff undeniably is awful, it doesn’t chang

Season 1
Very early AVGN is still surprisingly watchable 18-20 years later. Yeah, it's been that long. I wasn't even born when some of it was released. The videos are pretty chill, and he inspired a lot of other online videomakers, so it's got cultural importance too. It is sometimes *too* chill though, slow
