Frankly i would love to see a video, "Luke and Ellen air their grievances to the viewer" it would be like a reverse comments section. 👏

[@travisrolison9646]

Do it during festivus. The airing of grievances

"Maybe give him another arm". Straight away, a contender for Oxtra quote of the year.

[@jordanbooth4470]

For what it’s worth Ellen, I thoroughly enjoyed that gaming costs video!

[@rabrac619]

It is indeed a shame that it did not took off, it was both funny and interesting!

[@EddieRiggsBF3]

I watched it several times, because its fun to watch.

[@michaeldeters7506]

Do you know the exact name of the video? I can't seem to find it. Thanks@@EddieRiggsBF3

[@dexterpearson8689]

@@rabrac619Yeah, it was a very good video; had me thinking quite a bit. I remember watching it the same day it posted on the channel. 2021 I believe. Unfortunately, I can't find it on the channel and share the link. 😞 I'm wondering if it was taken down???

[@candacelee6816]

15:37 Jane’s disbelieving “…oohHh…!?” when Mike confidently proclaimed it was a yoshi is everything. xD

[@fotamucker7308]

Ellen is great, but I think Luke has AMAZING spatial awareness

[@dovahkiinthesardine2559]

and a slightly better ability to count arms xD

[@nathangoedeke694]

I wonder if Luke has played Portal

[@Lettersforhartigan]

honestly, maybe its because hes a musician

[@fotamucker7308]

@@Lettersforhartigan wait, do musicians have better spatial awareness than us normies?

[@Lettersforhartigan]

@@fotamucker7308 im just guessing here but when you play instruments you often have to know where to put your hands without seeing it?

[@lisah-p8474]

8:50 Luke: "I don't hate it." Honestly, if you can say that when you've finished an art project you're doing pretty darn well.

[@xtifr]

As someone who has tried drawing blindfolded: that's _extra_ true if you were blindfolded at the time! 😀

[@MalfisByMidnight]

Luke: "Does this make you uncomfortable, viewers?" Me: No, you're a grown-up man doing grown-up man stuff. Carry on.

[@kogundowole]

total silence followed by Luke's surprise at his own masterpiece at 11:02 is an instant presh mem

[@stone5against1]

That was the best drawing they did today for sure

[@frodobaggins7710]

I can imagine Jane and Mike's curious/amused reactions as they're told that they've got to inspect the artwork of Luke and Ellen

"I'd know those nipples anywhere!" - Mike Channell, 2023 😂👏

[@katfromthekong414]

That heartwarmingly passive-aggressive intro was classic 👌😂 Special mentions to "this is someone's sleep paralysis demon" 😳😂

[@landonewts]

“You know what? Picasso would be proud.” I love watching these two do basically anything. And yes - a grievances SOTW, please!

[@chefbreccia2642]

Yoshi Descending A Staircase

[@hello_robot]

Show of the Weekend takes me back to the days of Saturday morning cartoons/telly, and I mean that as the biggest compliment. I love watching SotW with a nice cuppa (albeit it ends up being Saturday evening in Australia, so herbal tea it is!)

[@lisah-p8474]

I was getting ads for children's toys so I think KZbin agrees with you. 😂

[@philippegauvin-vallee9371]

They have strong sibling energy. I like them so much.

[@Icam_here]

for drawing blindfolded these are really impressive, can't believe how close to accurate Luke's Yoshi was, must of been all that Yoshette art that made his so good at drawing Yoshi

[@scottmiller5331]

Luke’s “hello there” was spot on. Obi-luke Kenobi

[@gothmissstress]

I love that luke was approaching it with so much confidence 😂 I also loved "D stands for deconstructed" 😂

[@jeffreywells1832]

De Konstructed

[@jongofett]

I was fully expecting Andy’s art critic corner come the ending of the video, but it was actually super adorable hearing Mike and Jane almost instantly recognizing them! I think they should be involved in the annual Pikachu Drawing Challenge as a bonus. Of course Andy is the only one who can give out the point, but Mike and Jane can be optimistic morale boosters! And I watched that video about which game values your time! Although after one or two comments about the amount of Zelda videos, I can’t help but feel Ellen’s comment was directed at me personally 🤔

[@tomireland3644]

Dk bringing a whole new meaning to "my eyes are up here!" 😂

[@timh4753]

When Luke started drawing Yoshi I started getting flashbacks to Yoshette

[@krimzonknight]

honestly, "Picasso would be proud" is the kind of art edification i live for.

[@honteebee]

I know they've played a game literally made by jacob, but this feels like an even better reason for them to crossover with drawfee 😂

[@cjdraigo]

A Drawfee episode where they use the theme of some of Oxboxtra's most popular lists to give hosts drawing prompts, and an Oxventure One Shot Wonder where Drawfee hosts join over Zoom to play Gravity Rip

[@HazeEmry]

Wait, Jacob Drawfee made a game?

[@suikofan]

I watched and liked the time vs money video. That said I would like a general grievance video.

[@lisah-p8474]

General Grievance is my favorite Star Wars character. 😂

[@hiatusinc]

Luke's spatial awareness is something else tbh

[@dallydaydream]

Love Jane and Mike being brought in at the end and managing to guess all the characters right off the bat, that's some wholesome "indulgent big sibling" energy there

[@dsmiley53]

Luke draws the Yoshi, Ellen voices the Yoshi. Together, they are unstoppable.

[@xenogil180]

I do love these art streams. I will consider this to be a warmup for the Xmas Pikachu drawing challenge

[@Joestone1984]

Luke’s Kong looked like a happy clam ready for his first day at work

[@green_dragon_knight]

13:49 Yoshi as a terrifying Dark Souls boss

[@LadyViscera]

Luke even included the historically accurate cloacal sack on Yoshi

[@N.BR500]

10:06 : "Is this a troubling image for you, viewer?".....At anything you keep looking, it gets a dif response 🤣🤣

[@LuthienRubio]

Ellen's Dekongstructed and Luke's paper caressing (it was just missing careless whispers sounding in the background) are what I'm here for! You guys should do drawing videos more often! I loved this and the one where you drew pokemon

[@spyro454]

I really liked Ellen's video on how much games value your time!

[@Speilbilde]

"...maybe give him another arm?" This was too good 😂

[@abydosianchulac2]

Blindfolded Charizard is ones of my favorite older clips; glad to see a continuation! Later... Reactions at 15:41 are so much funnier knowing M&J didn't know about the blindfold

[@stormy7745]

Yay, return of the drawing challenges! Love it when these come around. Well done, both 😄

[@karichhoy]

10:02 Luke caressing the paper, "Is this a troubling image to you viewer?" ..... 😅 uhhhh kinda lol

[@harrypatatochips139]

Ellen i loved your how much do these things cost us in real money video. I would watch more of those. It was great

[@cjdraigo]

Pokemon from memory? Blind drawing challenge? When can we expect the Drawing Disney Characters as Dark Souls Bosses episode of Show of the Weekend? Always fun to watch you all enjoying yourselves! And the drawings are impressively recognizable.

[@TheLurkingWriter]

Or the alternative, Drawing Soulsborne Bosses as / in the Style of Disney Characters?

[@cjdraigo]

@@TheLurkingWriter it's wild that that episode of Drawfee got less than a fourth of the views of the first Disney Souls episode.

[@ewyeth7713]

as a professional illustrator I think you both have some serious work here that should be on display in no smaller an exhibition than the famous louvre where these will fit right alongside works by artists of a similar caliber such as van gogh and leonardo davinci!

[@milese3620]

The 'eyes'-mask really takes this video to another level! 😆

[@epsben]

8:13 *looks at camera with mask on* "Does Venom have underwear on?"

[@travisrolison9646]

Gotta wait till December for the airing of grievances for festivus.

[@allison9810]

Perhaps this is a conversation for my therapist, but did anyone else feel oddly good about being congratulated on viewing the video so well?

[@ElementalWhispers]

It feels gratifying to gain the approval of the OxBox crew ⭐

[@QuinnMallory-od1hw]

Nice to hear Mike and Jane on the channel, also those drawings are better than I could do blindfolded lol

[@stone5against1]

Too bad Andy wasn't there, but he's probably preparing himself for the upcoming pikachu challenge and needed all the brain cells he could muster

[@terrabits]

They invited Andy, but he started shaking and muttering "not again, not so soon..." and they left him alone

[@diegomoreno6752]

Ellen mentioning New York any time she gets is giving Britta from Community vibes and I love it. Next livestream she'll call bagels, "baggels"

[@layzboi8908]

15:39 The egg of the Yoshi looks like to me, someone looking up at the Kaiju and just so sad about it. I love it🤣😂

[@davetech9403]

I’d like to say two things. 1) Luke and Ellen’s friendship is the purest joy and 2) Luke’s Donkey King looks like Fatov from The Simpsons.

[@Toadcola]

Thanks recognologists Mike & Jane!

[@Lady_Sanctuary]

It's rare enough nowadays but it's a great morning when I get to watch a fresh from the video mines Show of the Weekend in bed with a cup of tea on a Saturday morning 😄

[@SirStanleytheStumbler]

drawing with a sharpie, with that couch behind, while blind? Bold.

[@stone5against1]

Luke's Venom looks more like Gollum than venom haha or like a 5 year old's Halloween costume without the muscles padding haha Damn, his Yoshi was so good!

[@TsiolkovskySportingLocks]

You should auction these for charity because they are brilliant art works!

[@LJay_1985]

I'd buy Ellen's Yoshi in a heartbeat. It'd have pride of place next to my framed Rachel Amber Missing poster.

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

This was really quite fun, wouldn't mind seeing more of these. As well as a periodic "Airing of The Grievances" episode, maybe during the Holiday Season each year. 😄👍

[@tomihuhtinen3450]

We need to hear the official art critic Andys opinion of these fine pieces of art!

[@cerosis]

Wasn't expecting Mike and Jane to be able to tell DK or Venom, well done!

[@clairewoods1858]

So, we’re all going to go get numbers on the ‘How Much Games Value Your Time’ video, right? Like directly after this SotWE, asap, let’s remove this tragedy from the list of grievances! (Mostly because I really remember the video being great, I appreciated the math and Luke is cut off in shot the entire video and it’s very funny)

[@kallasantysanty6092]

Oh, i have an idea. This year xmas challange Pikachu drawing should be blindfolded. And maybe also use more then one color (for added confusion and/or details). That might be fun.

[@DMBLaan]

I think they both did great, and I love the Mike and Jane cameo at the end

[@manashieldmedia]

Ellen is so overwhelmingly adorable. Love the outfit and energy.

[@classycasual3910]

[@catlover7466]

Luke was surprisingly good at this

[@justin6021]

"A yoshi is never late" is the line of the year 😂

[@coleydiizzle]

Luke’s Venom looks incredibly like Salad Fingers. Anyone else thinking the same??

[@zombiedoe3404]

for the briefest moment, before she added the tongue, ellens yoshi looked like rayman

[@HaIfaxa]

We have learnt Luke's memory and coordination is pretty incredible

[@dominateeye]

The Stardust Diner tee was an unexpected welcome surprise! I've never been, but I'm proud to say I'm in the same union as the workers there-the Industrial Workers of the World! So really, it's almost like seeing Ellen wear an IWW tee. 😄

[@chicomicah]

Ellen's Donkey Kong was very asymmetrical .. I love it! Both were good tho. 👏🏾

[@puzzledphantom3278]

Luke's drawing of Venom looks so sad and pathetic, I love it

[@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley]

All of the art was pretty dang decent! Though Ellen's Yoshi made me laugh as it looked like it was blowing a very long snot string 😂

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

I mean all the drawings were brilliant but gaht damn lukes yoshi was unbelievable lol

[@pockylovingranger]

I think they both nailed Daddy Venom quite well xD

[@mar_speedman]

1:00 That General Grievance section was... *Shorter than I expected* ;)

[@MattSkudlarek]

I'm wondering if it crossed anyone's mind to hand over the pen backwards, and either see how long it would take the artist to notice, or get a reaction shot of taking the blindfold off to a blank page.

[@antreiriukula4015]

"End of the pen is the end" is some real Hiss talk from Control

[@AdrianColley]

I literally didn't think this would be funny at all, but the very first one was a wild mix of accurate and hilarious.

[@kcollier2192]

Nice to see the newest members of the Yoshi family - Cousin Yosh and Uncle Yoshi-mi 😊

[@BlueLoneWolf527]

As usual you guys are a goddamn delight, even if how Luke did so well drawing Donkey Kong was bananas. The apex was his Yoshi, though. A for effort, Ellen!
