    I was a big fan for a while. Season 1 was great, season 2 was pretty bad, definitely not good, and season 3 is only slightly better than 2. I haven't downloaded an episode for months.

    I think it went downhill when they started giving donut or caboose (i get those two mixed up) more lines. The 'series' defnitely jumped the shark after season 1.

    Just a side note, don't even bother with the Strangerhood. That 'series' is hideous and is a waste of bandwidth. I wonder what these guys are going to do once people get tired of RvB? Find real jobs I suppose. It was pretty interesting how much that website cleared out when WoW went online; it seemed like everyone was waiting for something else to waste their internet time on. I know I was.
    • Well, just so people don't go in to this with that attitude...I totally don't agree. I find it has been consistantly funnier than almost everything on TV throughout its 3 seasons.

      The Strangerhood on the other hand started out really bad and has only gotten a smidge better. There is potential I suppose, but compared to red vs blue it is pretty horrible.

    I got hooked on it when they did some material for Barenaked Ladies concert in town. I had heard of RvB, but didn't really check it out until after the concert. I don't regret my wife's love of the band anymore.

    RED vs BLUE was an interesting idea.

    That was then. Now, its an interesting idea which even had it been well executed (its not. check out any digital film & animation festival for boatloads of real talent) it wouldn't qualify as /. news 3 seasons out.

    I find it incredible that a sloppily executed concept with a microscopic viewership, which is only important because it represents a "workaround" and because it was executed with intellectual property belonging to Microsoft can continue to represent "news"

    Let Red Vs. Blue die. Its over. Move along.
