Friday Nights: Nonstandard Rotation

[@RhysticStudies]

I know I've said this before, but... *JUND 'EM*

[@MrTripleM3]

+TheMagicManSam DO YOU HEAR THE CALL OF POWER! THAT IS JUND CALLING FOR YOU! Sadly Naya doesn't work too well.

[@andrewvisser8210]

When in doubt, Jund 'em out.

[@Alchemistmerlin]

I could watch an entire 30 minute video of Graham's MagicTCG Standup.

[@sankethbhaskar4236]

Yes, do it. Late Night at Tuk Tuk's!

[@samlidz1854]

+Alchemistmerlin Please, I would love that

[@Wargablarg]

"Anyone here from Westvale Abbey?" "Too soon!" "Okay, how about Hanweir?" "YES GRAHAM HANWEIR IS HERE"

[@dub_works]

Love the reference on Paul's card to the phyrexian juggernaut episode when he was first getting into magic. Self-references are the best references.

[@henriquecd]

We need a full episode of just Graham's stand up

[@McSuilenroc]

It's such a shame wizards cut down on friday nights. I love friday nights!

[@sankethbhaskar4236]

RIOT!

[@bassvoice23]

+Cony Why are they cutting down on Friday Nights?

[@McSuilenroc]

+bassvoice23 I have no idea.

[@notme222]

+bassvoice23 Because the MTG website is at the whim of however the wind blows through Hasbro headquarters. If you've been playing a long time you'll remember the Gleemax site. It was this poorly-defined vision for forums about games that functioned as a game itself. It never took off, but it functioned as a forum. When Randy Buehler left, the Gleemax vision died. The forums were down for SIX WEEKS before being replaced by something vastly inferior. Over the next year there would be constant issues with inability to log in, lost threads, etc. It was pretty much ignored. Then came the "social media" vision. The forums were expanded so that every user also had their own blog, people could form groups with their own schedule pages, there was a built-in wiki ... It was pushed by corporate to the point that all entrants to the GDS2 were required to do all their work on the wiki. (Which is not what the tool is designed for.) Naturally everyone hated that as the complexity made it harder to find what they really wanted to find. It fell into disuse and was abandoned for a few years except for a few stragglers who were still trying to enjoy the forums. Eventually even DailyMTG stopped linking to the forums at the end of articles. Speaking of which, over this time DailyMTG had several updates to the format and schedule. But now came the worst one: some boss at Hasbro read "Mobile First" in an issue of Forbes and ordered the whole layout to change. So now scheduled columns, special one-time pieces, and random bits of daily trivia were all given exactly the prominence on the Daily MTG page, with a little bit of text over a large picture, all in a random order and with no division between new and previous days. And the publish schedule was changed from "midnight" to "around 11-12ish when we feel like it." Naturally this has led to a drop in readership as it's more a pain to find what you want, and when you do you're less likely to browse around for other things of interest. Shortly after they also 100% removed the forums. Now you can't talk about Wizards of the Coast games on the WotC site. So with fewer people going there and people staying less when they do, it only "makes sense" to stop generating so much content for it. They've just recently dropped a couple columns (I think ... not that I can even tell what's a column anymore) and cut back on content like Friday Nights. It's just self-fulfilling management foolishness: make your site suck and people go to reddit, and then since they're on reddit you use that to justify making your site suck. But don't worry. In a few years a NEW manager will come on board and probably decide to launch a MTG tv channel featuring the Loading Ready Run Breakfast Hour. Because when you're the boss, no one tells you your idea is stupid.

[@brodi7748]

I just noticed that in the YJ scene the deck boxes aren't the only Jund reference. Kathleen has red lipstick, a green scarf, and a black shirt. Seems pretty Jund to me.

[@laurenmontgomery421]

Also Missy’s outfit. Red leather boots, black pants and shirt, green jacket. JUND EM

[@Xhjon]

And for the kitchen segments, the pen cup only has red, green and black

[@KingCulta]

The intro to Friday Nights always gets me nostalgic, remembering being up until god knows what hour in the morning, wrapped up in my quilt, binging all of Friday Night. Might do that again soon actually, it's such a fun experience. Also, I loved Paul's intro card :D

[@jtagle806]

Yes!!! Someone does the same thing i do!

[@DeviltoGeorgia34]

This is the fourth time I've watched this episode, and only now did I finally get the "sucker born every minute" joke in regards to vampires.

Another great Friday Nights. They just are never long enough; I know it was nearly 8 minutes but it felt like 2-3.

[@TheGibber]

I would totally watch Graham's magic-themed standup

[@suudsuu]

Cam's Jund-Revelation bit (from 5:24) is now one of my all-time favorite bits. Well done!

[@WhaddafrickTV]

Thanks for recommending this to me KZbin. For once, you did your job well.

[@goblingravy]

Your channel name references the llama song. Are you a literal time machine

[@WhaddafrickTV]

[@kappaross6124]

"Anybody here from Westvale Abbey? Yeah, I didn't think so." "Too soon!" I'm dead. I died from laughter, stopped breathing. Somebody call the authorities so that they can find my body.

[@yaboy62377]

Watch Friday Nights, doesn't understand a thing, gets into magic because of it. Couple years later, "this show is hilarious!".

[@idodo32]

the triumphant return of JUST JUND 'EM!!!

[@brianwise5850]

i so wish this happened more often we need more friday nights!!!

[@MSUHitman]

How funny is it the opening joke about BG Aristocrats actually became a top 8 deck at the Pro Tour?

[@marten7715]

But that had shadows cards in it.

TOO SOON!

Funny video as always. I laughed at lot at Serge's little bit and Graham's bad Magic stand up. Also, I love Kathleen's lipstick (what a lovely color) and how she was also Jund colors in her scene :)

[@AngelmanStudios]

love this series all the time, glad to see missy in the cast more.

[@345rexter]

the call back to episode 1 on pauls card is amazing.

[@ExhaustedElox]

Don't worry Alex. My friends ignore my humor too. Also, Stand-up Graham is best Graham.

[@slidetrombone]

+Exhausted Elox aw, I thought this was Dad-Joke Graham entering his final form...

[@CoachBall115]

I'm very glad that this show isn't dead. Probably my favorite show to watch concerning magic

[@kyuzo3567]

Graham man, I love your character and appreciation for flavour but that was just rough.... Which was probably the entire point so great job! Also I'm really happy to see new cards in the opening and a new Missy card!

[@angrywizard3199]

one of my favourite episodes just for the setup of the Jund 'em, very on theme - also the cards in the intro go James, Kathleen, Alex - Green, Black, Red

[@Rebazar]

"I'm not sure if the deck is good, but it sure is a deck." "Sometimes, that's the best you can hope for."

[@naejin]

The texts on the LLR cast cards was awesome! They seem to reveal a little bit of their character's (or maybe their actual) respective senses of humor.

[@killustrator]

What sense of humor?

[@MrTripleM3]

+naejin Hey, I'd play James in a Treefolk Tribal. That is broken.

[@malekf5251]

"..... you should play jund..." Idk why I love that XD

[@SecretShotgun]

That moment when Alex was originally on the LSV pro tour plan. XD

[@leppaman2719]

omg the absolute delight on Paul's face at the end was adorable.
