Poll: Which GOTY TV parody was your favorite?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Is there a poll for this? I did a few searches and couldn't find a poll for this.
EDIT: For me Special Report almost won on the strength of The Rap Man alone, but I had to go with CollectSHUN. From the editing to the music, it was just too perfect.
Strong tie between Special Report and Cop Show. They were all pretty great besides The Workplace, though, which... just didn't work because the GB guys obviously aren't adept at actually writing sharp comedy and after the novelty of ''Office parody by Giant Bomb'' worn off, it was all super flat.
Also I'm pretty sure CollectSHUN was inspired by this:
I could've sworn I already voted, but yeah -- definitely CollectSHUN!
A bunch of great stuff in the background too. I think at some point there was a Deathsmiles poster and Jeff towards the end got interview with a Tommy Heavenly6 poster in the background definitely brought me back to that one time he went mad with streaming a bunch of crazy things simultaneously in his personal twitch.tv from that new capture card kinda thing he just had back then. Man, that was a trip!
CollectSHUN easily. that was amazing.
though i gotta say the GBcrew really did amazing job this year, easily the best GOTY skits/shorts whatever so far. i was all annoyed by the like 2 weeks of like NO content but then they did that and im like "wow i should probably subscribe at some point" lol.
fantastic stuff.
I think there was a poll about the best fake show earlier but whatever.
CollectSHUN. Sometimes it was distubingly well acted, like the conversations between Ryan and Jeff.
There was one earlier... And to quote myself from the previous one:
"Voted for "CollectShun", close second was "The Workspace"... the others didn't do much for me..."
collectSHUN by far. Patrick was fucking great at being the dick! but i have to say the weakest was R.O.O.M.I.E.S. and work place was a little too on the nose for me, but i still liked it.
Gotta say, I don't get the fascination with collectSHUN. Yeah, Jeff was really funny in it, and Ryan's last line was pretty great.
But, like, Special Report was monstrously good. Fantastic material in that one, and then the Rap Man performance! And Cop Show was better than collectSHUN too!
CollectSHUN is like a look into my future... it was... terrifying, yet some how funny.
So I pick that one.
Hunked, definitely. Every time I think of Ryan's "Anyone!" I crack up. Rap Man, stoned scientist, shoe bongs, script reading on camera. And Brad nailed his part with aplomb.

Another vote for CollectSHUN. Thinking of Jeff yelling "You're my nightmare!" still makes me laugh.
This is the only right answer.

For me, CollectSHUN hit the hardest because of how accurate it felt in the editing. I was still laughing because I understood the context, but I could easily imagine it as a real TV show.
@StarvingGamer: I just felt like the writing for the non-Jeff characters was kind of flat, and Brad and Patrick weren't up to the standard set by Jeff in that one. The psychologist character didn't feel right at all. The editing was great, but the performances and writing mostly just weren't there for that TV "quality."
Also, RYAN PICKS UP A SHOE FILLED WITH STRAWS ON THE STREET WITH DISDAIN.
