    It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

    I watched this series several years ago, but felt compelled to write a review when I saw the announcement of Felicia Day's memoir. Day's breakthrough web series The Guild is nothing short of genius. Not only is the series brilliantly written, but it is perfectly relatable. Everyone has walked (if only briefly) in the shoes of at least one of these characters, or has known one of them - whether it's the penny- pincher, the mom with a need for escape, the hopelessly romantic young man, the pervy teen, the girl who is "way too good for all of you", or the nervous wreck. It is rare that a series captures me the way The Guild did, and I hope to see more scripted series from Felicia Day at some point in the future.

    Finally, a show that the gamers among us can relate to. Felicia day has done an amazing job with this series. The characters are near perfect parodies of the different personalities you run into in gaming culture, and each is so brilliantly broken that you cant help but fall in love with them. Codex, played by Felicia Day, has a dry and self deprecating sense of humor that any of the socially awkward among us will find ourselves relating to only minutes into the first episode. Zaboo, played by Sandeep Parikh, is nothing if not unique and brings a sense of awkward naivety to the show that parodies the popular stereotype of gamers perfectly. Felicia Day was an avid gamer for years and captured the culture with a perfect mix of accuracy and satire, and anyone who has ever so much as dipped a toe into the world of online gaming will find themselves hooked. **It started out as a web series, so the episodes are quite short. I recommend watching them on Netflix, where they have been compiled into hour and a half long "seasons" with no having to choose new episodes in between.

    Do not be fooled by the pictures, watch a few episodes and you will be quickly charmed. A guild (not game specific) of somewhat typical gamers meet each other and interact with one another in real life. Starring Felicia Day (possibly the prettiest "nerd"redhead) among other actors that you've may seen randomly throughout the world of pop culture.The show studies their social quirks as well as chronicles their mishaps as well as social situations that they get into as a result of their social ineptitude. The writing and production scale of this show is fairly high. And there's a lot of work that went into this show and you would appreciate the creativity of The Guild.

    I stumbled on this while playing around on ITunes. I have to say this is by far the most entertaining and amusing pod-cast I have ever seen. The combination of "The Office" and RPG's is the most original concept I have ever seen. It is painfully obvious that someone on the writing staff is a Gamer. The only possible complaint I could have is that the episodes are too short. I would actually watch a 30 minute episode of this on television. Of course I am a geek, which drew me into this in the first place. I watched the first five episodes immediately, and as soon as I found the official website, I watched episode 6. I cannot wait for the newer episodes to release. I think I can say I'm truly a Guild junkie. Plus, Codex is HOT!!!
