Jackbox is cool and all but I see it more of a UPF/Extra Life thing than an Holiday Specialtacular. Been kinda disappointed with this year's videos so far...

Jackbox? I didn't realize the "Please Stop" category went up today, with its own dedicated video no less.

Maybe it’s because I love the jackbox games and play them about once a month myself but I personally can’t get enough of watching the duders play these games. Especially when Vinny is involved. Same could be said about Avalon, wish they would bring that back.

@gloone: I'm guessing maybe they forgot to add the link. Which is a bummer, but if one of them happens to have not cleared the cookies on their phone since they played, they could get the link.

I feel like someone always fails to submit something whenever GB plays Jackbox.

Ben opened that bag like a child who knows no better.

I could watch them play Tee K.O. all day.

Also, hey, Jackbox? I know the party packs are a huge hit, but YDKJ needs some lovin' too, y'know.

I do not understand how/why they are constantly eating while trying to do a show.

Their days are long and it can be hard to find time to eat.

Are we getting Tee-KO links to their creations?

Also, I expected more The Pest references.

That's true. I know I always see newscasters munching on a sandwich or talk shows hosts eating a chicken leg when interviewing a guest, and Geoff Keighley was eating a bowl of soup when hosting The Game Awards. I bet they have equally long days preparing for those shows so you must be right, it has to be that.

Weird things to compare as GB literally has a show called Unprofessional Fridays and it has been part of the GB experience for years. An interview does not take 4+ hours in one go and Keighley is not always on camera so he could go off for a bit and snack or maybe he is cool not eating for a bit....completely different things that can't be compared.

I was being sarcastic with my response, but this was neither an Unprofessional Friday nor a 4+ hour video, it was 44 mins. I doubt they are so busy they couldn't take 15 mins to eat a snack before/after a 44 min video in order to avoid chewing into mics while filming.

So you know if a lot of these videos were shot on different days? Maybe it is just possible they did more than one video and one thing on a day. How long did they take per day to record these and the podcasts that are also live and on camera? Hmm....

Them eating should not be an issue and it's always mind blowing when people bring it up.

@curryspiced: we can probably assume that the friends & snacks idea is to make it feel laid back & christmassy. It might work for some, might not work for others.

I love the idea of Jackbox, really liked that first pack & what they do with the phones, but feel pretty meh about this one. The T-shirt thing is novel because you can buy the things, but apart from that it's a lot of setting up time & incoherent jokes that are only laughable because it makes hardly any sense .

i don't see what the problem is, I like that noise. All humans need to eat, who really cares.

I feel bad but I'm kinda bummed to see a GOTY video dedicated to Jackbox-- a game they've played so much on both coasts. Loving the Bombcasts so far though!

I like Jack Box but that Fakin It game sucks to watch. Found myself just skipping through forward constantly in the video till it was over.
