[@partlyironic]

like not even 3 minutes in Steven has asked them to name "all the spices" and then clearly got The Spice Girls mixed up with The Powerpuff Girls and literally no one called him out on it and just went "...okaaaay" and that's how I know this series is gonna be brilliant.

The fact that Ricky has had ice thrown at him more than once, witnessed a Steven Lim Breakdown™, endured Ryan and Shane's drunk shenanigans, and still accepted to come back to make drinks next to someone called Coke Santa while dressed up as St. Nicholas is unbelievable. Truly a saint among men.

[@SithLadyDarhVamp]

I've said it before and I'll say it again; this is truly unhinged. More, please.

[@DamnItDylan]

Idk if anyone from Watcher will see this, but on the 15th I'll have been sober for 3 years. Watching people drink usually makes me really uncomfortable. But your drink-related content is something I can enjoy without a struggle because even with Worth A Shot, the personalities involved shine brighter than the fact that drinks are being made/consumed. Thank you for this. It's nice not to feel an urge to skip videos because of alcohol consumption. Y'all are the best.😊

[@adeer87]

Congrats man, 3 years is a long time!

[@thebadpoet]

That’s an incredible accomplishment, congratulations!

[@julieinid1]

Plus it's the lamest party ever so it's easy. Especially since they consider drinking one mixed drink and a beer.

[@stephaniemitchell5760]

Sober for just over 50 days and I was sad that I couldn't watch these videos and decided to give them a try and it's honestly not triggering it's just been so joyful! And congratulations on the 3 years!

All of the Watcher shows are amazing, but Too Many Spirits is just so good. Between the increasing drunkenness of Ryan and Shane and the special bartending skills of Stephen Lim…it’s always solid gold.

Ryan throwing treats at a dog while wearing a Santa costume was not on my bingo list for this season but I'm not disappointed. Christmas came early for the neighbour's dog, I guess.

[@sporks3256]

Idk if they said the neighbors were gone, if they did, then disregard but i know people who just let their dogs bark it up outside at night, while they're home. They're either genuinely ignorant to their neighbors or litterally don't care is my guess when it comes to people like that.

Ricky was so clearly trying to say this, but had to give up.

[@michelle6337]

I want to know when they filmed this. It's clearly not cold outside like it has been in past TMS videos, Shane isn't wearing his ring, and there was definitely a cheeky wink wink nudge nudge tone when he said "wife" at 27:51, like the wedding hadn't happened yet but they knew this would be coming out after the wedding. I just really like the idea of them decking out the entire backyard in Christmas decorations in the middle of July.
