[@robertmolnar9131]

Karen is and acts like a true villain. One of the best memorable charakter.

[@jacindabox1166]

Lol charakter

[@grathado28]

actually the acting is quite good

[@heathermillsphantomlimb9314]

Of course I don’t actually know, but I’d be willing to bet that she’s probably superbly nice in real life. The best villains in movies and tv usually are, anyway.

[@Joker-og3pj]

Do you think we will get a third episode were Karen returns again, it’s kind of tradition for great things to come in trilogy’s so I think so.

[@anthonydeadman]

An absolutely amazing actress to be certain.

[@UselessMistake]

It's actually insane how good their cgi is for a youtube show.

[@bambi5468]

I know right. They are truly amazing

[@boogersaregood]

Even in their older pubg skits, I remember being jarred by how realistic the gore looked in one of the very first ones

[@Monster_Fan111]

I am actually more impressed with their costume than their editing. KZbin has some of the best CGI out there. So not that surprised. Their fantasy costume in another hand, is PERFECT

[@anthonycarlisle6184]

Yeah, their props & costumes are what sets them apart. It gives them a legit, genuine production look. Not to mention their audio voice/foley/music, editing, and writing are top notch too

[@PearsonPlays]

I still think one of the funniest details of the "Vermin" sketch was that you could count exactly 10 extremely tiny spiders throughout the scene

[@robertthompson5701]

And only 6 puppies

[@PearsonPlays]

@@robertthompson5701 exactly

[@redacteddata]

It basically threw him out of the house after his deeds. So much rep loss that the quest was undoable and he was allowed to leave.

[@lecor9487]

Maybe,it had two endings?

[@PearsonPlays]

@@lecor9487 oooooh. Good thought

[@alexarellano7521]

Ben completed the Darkwood Quest: Stop Eugene's pesky puppies from bothering the spiders.

[@Forestmarko]

he likely roleplayed as an Australian there, they know the 8 legged beauty :D

[@uberdruckventil]

@@Forestmarko sooo, he most likely will scream and run when it comes to Emus? ;P

[@corriehingston6744]

Naughty puppies bothering the spiders

[@rickyray2794]

The "Boop" during the Death Knight skit was so wholesome lol. the whole thing was.

[@MyDirtydan]

The birthday singing skit is easily one of their best skits ever

[@tool46296]

I was a server for many years and absolutely HATED having to sing that stupid song

[@bcfb21]

And incredibly accurate for me at least, I've got autism and anxiety, I can't stand people drawing attention to me.

[@DigitalAura]

wow, I mean it really captured the awkwardness of this stupid phenomenon. Truly, don't we all look on with pity at the 'other table' when this happens to them?

[@SouthernIllinoisRailfan]

We can all agree that VLDL made us smile on our worst days in 2021!

[@icer1249]

Ain't that the truth. VLDL getting us through lockdowns. Absolute life savers

[@budahbaba7856]

YES! Thank you all so much for providing genuine comedy when comedy in general, at least here in the States is very rarely funny anymore! Love to you! :)

[@toxicgrimer4350]

[@THE_SOSC]

I think Alan has made the most progress acting, hes a my favorite

[@remelin75]

@@THE_SOSC I'm amazed how they all have such incredible personalities. They are all so unique. I can't really choose a favorite as I really like them all.

[@jconner78]

The main three are all fabulous, but Hamish Parkinson is really great as well, he always cracks me up… everyone they cast seems to really gel with the triumvirate because damn they’re hilarious together

[@remelin75]

​@@jconner78 I really love Hamish. He has such a great range of emotions in a way only he can do it. Despair, anger, frustration, happiness, sadness and it's all in his own style which is so very funny. But I really like Ben Van Lier too. His Dark Souls series is really good and not only the acting but the writing of those episodes. Phoenix Cross and Byron Coll also have such great unique expression in their acting. No, I can't really say I have a favorite. They are all unique and the shows wouldn't be the same without any of them.

[@adelguy67]

Working in hospitality "Karen" was definitely the highlight for me in 2021 and most relatable!

[@MegaNoah13]

Hey! I'm a GM (not game Master) I feel that!

[@adelguy67]

@@MegaNoah13 so am I, I always dread hearing the words "I want to speak to the Manager" because that means me!

[@vahidfarahani5142]

"I'm the super manager" was delivered perfectly. The roly poly was just perfection with Rowan's acting. The eugen's cry is the best, I hope some day we get a eugen's road. Ben is just OUTRAGEOUSly good in the puppy episode and soul series. "How you like them rolly pollies" "Long rest" cracks me up every time.

[@aimanisahac]

Freakin Ben so focused with the dog's cuteness that he did not even see the spiders lurking all over the place 😂

[@bennett3415]

I never noticed the spiders! Had to go back and look again

[@andrewvarcoe4741]

My god, this is the best karen of all time, the voice loved this one, and the supermanager the white shirt. Temporary rage paralysis beautiful and the power of three hilarious. This is probably one of your best videos yet. To banish a karen.

[@leewood729]

As a VERY mature LADY gamer, I laughed harder than I expected at the expressions of horror on Alan's and Adam's faces as Ellie fumed... Brilliantly done skit.

[@CortexNewsService]

Just waiting for Ellie to erupt.

[@user-gv4wq6ky8f]

The fact that other amazing videos such as "cutscene vs gameplay" didn't enter the list just shows what a great year 2021 was in terms of VLDL videos. Great job guys :)

[@vbscript2]

Oh, man, that one was awesome.

[@gasman1155]

Going to add Hamish’s bard song to my workout playlist so I can feel subtly stronger

[@CrypticCobra]

I love how the quest let him leave after killing the puppies even though the target is spiders lol

[@mitchmcginn4250]

Fuck that game lol

[@MrNight-dg1ug]

That "There you are" at 1:15 was SO WELL DONE

[@metalmikenz]

The happy birthday song at the restaurant. I almost forgot that one. I had to explain to my son why I was bright red and crying watching this. Probably my favourite of the season. The "look away" is the point at which I lose all control. Thanks for all the laughs team.

[@animal245533]

The Karen one is so perfect the production value is amazing.

[@trevorcunning6248]

I swear, Ben is the most versatile cast member!

[@robm6510]

"I've been training in secret" "At what cost?" "A weekend session at corporate. Remember I had to skip on Jim's poker night?"

[@kanjo4976]

Gonna use Karen returns as inspiration in my writing. Such good film making.

[@elc0m0d0re2]

I just went through various videos and I noticed there wasn't a single dislike visible. Seeing this makes me so happy for you guys

[@Hadam10Rose]

Ah, so that's why they had to re-up it. The og had the first Karen episode of Bored in it. This has Returns in it.

[@dakat5131]

Guess that would explain it. I thought for sure I saw this video posted before

[@rbnzdave]

Yep. Realised that too. Missed out on uncomfortable conversation sketch tho. That one is gold.

[@MumsieGames]

You guys got me through a mini stroke Christmas 2020 and through having that virus this Christmas. You guys are awesome thanks for the brilliant content 😊 ❤

Viva La Dirt League has become one of my favorite KZbin channel all of you are doing great work.. Keep it comin Peeps best wishes in 2022

[@redacteddata]

The best part of the Vermins sketch was that he essentially had to have lowered his rep so low slaughtering those puppies that the quest was no longer doable for him. Then he could leave. Lol.

You know a quest needs tweaking when the objective ("Kill 10 Vermin") accepts puppies, thereby allowing Ben's adventurer to leave the quest area. I can't blame the adventurer when it came to missing the spiders lurking about. I too was didn't see the spiders that were hanging down from the ceiling and lurking around until watching this video. The puppies are just too cute to notice the vermin in question. 😳

[@joshuamulvaney792]

The Karen 2 episode is my favorite episode in the series. After a decade of seeing Rowan's treatment of the employees, seeing them all work together against a greater evil is ridiculously satisfying. No twist, no moronic decisions from Rowan, even Alan is the perfect version of his usually villainous white shirt self. The sketch is great, but it's so much better when you realize the greater context of the show that they've spent years developing. Legends.
