I'm thinking of doing a 12 Days of Christmas-type thing counting down everyone's favorite moments from Premium streams if anyone has anything that obviously sticks out at you. I'm going to go back and poke through this year's Premium streams and see what pops out at me (already did a bunch of clips for Twitter), but if you have any obvious ideas please let me know! Actually feel free to nominate any funny stuff from non-Premium now that I think about it!
What are your favorite Premium moments of the year?
The Temporary Secretary and Hot in Here bits from the 11/21 Sekiro video are pretty amazing.
Anywhere where Jackbox’s TKO game comes up.
Temporary Secretary (again!) from the worst songs of the 80s.
Business Dave’s top 10 lists are fertile with great stuff.
I’m sure Crime Crew had some great moments, but that series could have used some editing. I’d love to see a Crime Crew highlight reel, frankly...
...same goes for Sea Beasts. I bet there was some good stuff there, it’s just a lot of runtime and something more consumable would be great.
I remember some good Fatality reactions from the MK11 playdate on 6/6...the playdates on 4/19 and 4/25 had some great stuff, too.
Crime Crew had some great moments.
Burgle my bananas
Six crazy frights
Resident Evil 2 remake Abby meets Mr X
Jeff B being an alien in Jackbox on East Coast
Some of my favorite moments from this year in Giant Bomb were...
Dan's "Dinosaurs aren't real!/I believe in dinosaurs" incident in one of the Playdates.
Dan realizing he didn't know where butter came from during RE4.
Temporary Secretary in the Worst of the 80s stream (having never heard it before, that was easily the hardest I laughed all year)
The world's smartest AI climbing the car in the Left Alive quick look.
Vinny's world being filled with cars flipping out in GTAV.
Jeff and Ben's reaction to the reveal of Deadly Premonition 2.
It's a bit of recency effect, but the 80's songs stream (and podcast moments) were something else, particularly the Temporary Secretary moment.
The first cat to pop up in Vinnyvania was great. The last "My First E3 3" podcast was one of my favourite "podcast going completely off the rails" moments.

Load Our Last Save: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice - When Ben first got Owl down one bar, he faked mercy before absolutely murdering Ben in glorious fashion. Also playing Kidz Bop's rendition of "Hot In Herre".
There were some good jump scares in one of the RE2 Remake Playdates. I think there was one of Abby complaining about how terrifying Mr. X is right before he kicks the door in on her face!
@squadaloo: HAHA!
I think Dan’s stating that dinosaurs aren’t real was from the Jurassic Park quick look.
Any time Jeff Goldblum speaks in that quick look is also great.
Dan's reveal of the Bungle My Bananas shop is solid gold. Love all these suggestions but that's my favorite.

That could be a whole hour of just that since every damn episode it took like 5 min to even get to the reveal.
I loved Brad and Dan playing Hitman 2 in the bank. It started as a slow burn and turned into the greatest heist movie ever filmed. It gave us cheeseburger physics and an escape so amazing the developers insisted Noclip use it in their video.
Can someone link me to this? It sounds great
When Dan got the 'switch cups with the leader' wheel spin in Burgle My Bananas, but Vinny got him so worked up he ate a bunch of the bananas and fell below the 300 banana threshold.
That CrimeCrew episode 6 where the server has gone bonkers and Vinny gets propelled away from vehicles & sinks into the floor all the time. Especially the part where Alex found a perfectly fine car for Vinny to step in and then it cuts to his screen and he sees this husk of a vehicle that he tries to get near.
Dan and Mike playing Red Alert 2. Vinny’s setup was great and the whole stream was just fantastic.
I’d love to see that game played a bit more frequently. Maybe a new feature with other people in the industry lining up to challenge Dan. It’s a good ground for his trolling and competitiveness.
I’m sure Crime Crew had some great moments, but that series could have used some editing.
lol
Crime Crew: the glitch episode is the hardest I laughed at anything all year.
They weren’t Premium, but the Let’s Sing 2019 and Heave Ho QLs were my other favorite moments.
When things first started getting really crazy in Bungle My Bananas - specifically when Vinny was allowed to get more spins of the wheel by paying with bananas.
I would just say all of Burgle My Bananas. That whole show was crazy and got me to purchase premium.
