Show of the Weekend: Skyrim on a Bus and Ellen's Super Switch Quiz!

[@outsidextra]

It's Show of the Weekend! There's a bit of a theme this week as we SWITCH between sections. Can...can you guess what it is..? It's quite subtle really...

[@notforsaletoday1895]

Outside Xtra t-shirts?

[@wierdalien1]

notforsale today Lukes fire game could be a sweet 6 hr indie game. Shush dont tell him.

[@coyoteartist]

Subtle like Mjolnir to the side of the head.

[@Codemarla]

When talking about Rime you should have mentioned that the Switch port is an unplayable mess. I wasted £30 on it last night. Played 20 mins and will never go back to it.

[@hazemalagha]

Outside Xtra Hmmmmm uuuuuuu are you talking about,just a random guess, the nintendo switch?

[@andymcp4752]

With Skyrim on a bus i can already see myself looking at the Switch for 5 minutes then looking up and realising ive missed every stop and the bus is has been parked in the depot for two hours..

[@amorembalming]

Andy Mcp my thoughts exactly. I'd be sacked within a week of owning it.

[@joenesvick7043]

I get sick if I don’t watch the road. I could play on a plane if there is no turbulence

[@superphantom100]

Joe Nesvick then you look up and now the plane is headed somewhere else and your still on the plane.

[@joenesvick7043]

I’d put it away for landings. They say every electronic device interferes with the plane’s equipment, nobody believes it but that’s what they say. Only way I can miss my destination is if the plane gets diverted, that’s out of my hands

[@SpydersByte]

+Joe Nesvick nobody believes it because it isn't true. That myth has been tested many times and it has never shown any correlation. Hell I think Mythbusters even did it.

[@sparklymoon101]

Luke's nordic accent was so good, i was convinced he was an actual NPC in the game. impressive

[@TG-yt1cv]

KoinuJo maybe he is an NPC

[@rkbrillant5265]

So you attempted to browse through his pockets by crouching behind him then stealing his clothes?

[@scc8647]

He's been a bit obsessed with the Mario cap recently. Lets see how he looks with... a bucket on his head! Then we can steal his sweetrolls.

[@X3._.n3]

12:35 Luke wastes away slowly staring out at the water until he finally collapses from hunger, thirst, and lack of sleep and enters his final sleep.

[@ayanhaider303]

Am I the only one that's concerned that on at least one occasion, Ellen will encounter a Frost Spider while in a public area and fling her Switch towards random people in front on her.

[@geordanvest8378]

A game where you play as Luke following enigmatic clues left by Ellen called Elle-Noire.

[@realism_logic]

That's a good one.

[@rileyscott7672]

Elle-Noire 2:The Ellening

[@CaitlinRC]

I'm very tempted to make a Show Of The Weekend bingo board. Would include bad puns, Ellen breaking down into laughter, KOA being mentioned etc.

[@nikelf1]

wouldn't that just bingo every single SOTWe?

[@brocksisson7128]

You'd need a bonus puppetry square in there somewhere

[@savvysnake7711]

(In Emperor's voice) Do it

[@MrRafalel]

a drinking game, and then everyone of us will need a liver transplant

[@brickfuckingmaster7505]

Caitlin RC please please do it

[@thebpphantom]

Show of the Week and Show of the Weekend are two of my favourite KZbin shows. Really, you all do such an excellent job. Gratz to the cast AND crew.

[@theish8632]

I personally think that Luke’s survival horror game would be great! Think about it, you’re lost on some island and you have to get wood for a fire. Eventually, you run out of wood close to you and you have to go deeper and deeper into the island’s mainland, not knowing what’s in store for you.

[@superphantom100]

And you have to survive four weeks in game hours before help comes.

[@silverwatermermaid1563]

I just realised how much show of the weekend is like preschool/kindergarten. Ellen and Luke get to take naps, have juice carton breaks and say what they would do in a given situation. Now I'm even more jealous of their jobs :c

[@CiarlaArt]

I'm with Luke, I enjoyed Prototype , slicing your way through innocent bystanders, consuming them to replenish your own health. Great fun.

[@ianstotts4028]

Ciarla Art Agreed. It wasn't a "good" game by any means, but it was tons of fun. It reminded me of the open, fun and whooshy locomotion in "Ultimate Spider-Man" on the PS2.

[@agf_serval6492]

You meantioned that armestice-meeting in Skyrim. I always wanted a mod for that meeting that includes the information you learn in the mainstory line quest "Diplomatic Immunity". Namely the fact that the leader of the Stormcloaks is A BLOODY THALMOR-AGENT! That makes him a traitor to the empire twice over!

[@Brutaltronics]

Prototype is one of my favorite games, running, jumping and smashing everything in your path is fantastic.

[@christopher.rich2]

The Legend of Oxtra: Luke's Awakening

[@dancrawshaw2858]

BUS RO DAH

[@Sableagle]

Portal to the *plane* of Oblivion?

[@totticosta2977]

Andy narrating is my new favorite thing in the world.

[@boxmaker9932]

Luke was so exited when he found the clue, it was as if switch-mas had come early.

[@danfr]

Prototype was absurdly awesome, my favourite trick was "aerial skyjacking" - swiping a helicopter, flying up and getting into a fight with other helicopters, jumping out of my helicopter, grappling onto another helicopter, and stealing it in mid-air.

[@cordeliaseil]

Luke missed his chance to make a ship manned by dinosaurs on wheels as his car!!

[@cordeliaseil]

Ellen missed the chance to have an Ellening and say the open world game should be Kingdoms of Amalur!!

[@superphantom100]

JustCaden_ that’s what I thought she was going to do.

[@paulwade5853]

I think they've put a new "speaking about Kingdoms of Amalur" jar next to the "getting lost in the Outside's eyes" jar, and Ellen simply can't afford to mention it anymore If you like to make a donation to the Hapless Ellen foundation, please call 1800 NOMOREGIGGLES

[@johnharrison2086]

If KOA Reckoning comes to Switch, I will buy it!

[@MerphyWatchLinkClick]

Paul Wade Oh god how much do I need to pay for for the ‘Getting Lost in OxBoxTra eyes’ because every single time there’s a close up of Luke I can’t help but stare in those absolutely beautiful and gorgeous ey- I just did it again goddamn it. Same for Ellen. And Mike. And Jane. And Andy... do I have an eye fetish? Oh god I probably do someone shoot me

[@no_genius]

@@johnharrison2086 did you buy it?

[@ricbulow]

Still the best intro on KZbin!

[@johnoneil9188]

That is again typically Jane. They try to negotiate peace and she just dozes off.

[@davesayswords]

Brilliant as always! I would like to point out the blow hole on Luke's car could be useful for launching the ball into the air if it lands on his bonnet or flies overhead. A whaley good design choice Luke! Also I loved the timing after Luke asked Ellen if she'd heard anything, she says "no" and turns to face the camera dramatically and then my video immediately cut to an add with dramatic music. Fitting. Also the ending voices... You sound less like angles and more like Hyacinth Bucket... Sorry it's pronounced Bouquet dear... Yes B U C K E T. RIICCHHHHAAARRDDD and so on.

[@Left4DeathMetal]

14:16 "In the process of, like, swinging your great biological meat sword around" -Luke *chuckles*

[@el_christell]

I tend to chose the Imperials due to the free ingots and crafting materials you get form Alvors forge in Riverwood. All you get form the other place is a ton of mead and.... wait... I might have to rethink my strategy.

[@acciodance]

My dad is one of the nintendo hardcores who is finally going to get to play Skyrim! I'm really excited for him.

[@wannieg]

No bloopers because "We don't make any mistakes" Why do I think someone mistakenly deleted the bloopers? ;)

[@paulwade5853]

No bloopers is a blooper!

[@DaveJoyce]

i think the crew is just tired, i mean look at Ellen's reaction after the clip at 4:13

[@Daredhnu]

"mistakenly" :p

[@timlilyquist6464]

"The witness has one leg to stand on!" - I immediately thought 'F.L.A.M.I.N.G.Os' - A murder investigation, and yet they Never Say Die.

[@Mattocon757]

love how Luke started having a moment, followed swiftly by a deflect of said moment onto Ellen.

[@Crimson_Rogue97]

Merry Switchmas everyone! I hope Father Switchmas is kind to you and given you lots of Switch related items.

[@Sirfinchyyy]

The catnip really helped that one time. I've never seen a frost troll drop a giant cat so fast before.

[@charlie_lock]

Having to wait a whole week for Show of the Weekend is torture but it's always so worth it, you guys always cheer me up & make me laugh! You're like Switchmas come early!

[@mroutlaw3874]

Ellen’s Laugh 💛 Heart melting ☺️

[@DucklynStark]

Mike would have loved the last question in the quiz.

[@nashdiy8570]

Luke's car would make the best goalie. Whenever the ball came too close he would use his blow hole to knock it up and away from the goal. His height would make it easier for him to reach the ball if he ever needed to jump towards the aforementioned ball.

[@wwklnd]

Luke, your Nord accent was shockingly good. Regards, a northern Swede.

[@mta1864]

A campfire is the perfect survival choice! It keeps you warm at night, you can upgrade your sweet bow, and best of all, you can fast-travel off the island! (But only to Yamatai. Maybe i didn't think this one though...)

[@nikbol43below]

Zelda vs. The Frost Troll. Sounds like a fight of the century candidate to me. 12 Rounds, one winner, unifying the Skyrim and Hyrule titles.

[@patrikhjorth3291]

So, Luke, the princess is not just in another castle, she's in another game altogether? How will Link ever find her now?

[@dallydaydream]

See now I just want Luke to do a Princess Peach runthrough of Skyrim.

[@darkgrrrrl8809]

All kept in my mind from that Video is Ellen's face when she took the Switch.. That grin.. ossum!

[@AmaranthOriginal]

"What's the best shape for a car to be?" "Car shaped." I mean, she's not wrong....

[@moriaty123]

As Ellen has an 'O' on her t-shirt, why didn't you coordinate outfits and have Luke wear an 'X' t-shirt?

[@welshzecorgi7903]

Foolish Andy... Jane doesn't sleep... She waits...

[@yushakader4991]

She plots

[@OddlyAutumn]

Thank you for the perfectly timed posting! I needed something to keep me awake in the middle of a long bread-baking cycle. You both deserve a shout-out. . . or in this case, a Challah.

[@nathanharris4105]

Luke: Entertain yourselves. Me: Why do you think I'm watching this video?

[@cocod7272]

At 20:00 Ellen turns into the dog from the video being teased by his owner with bacon 😂 "the maple kind?? Yea? Yea??"

[@ulysisxtr]

Awesome narration by Andy!

[@aaronmcdonald4685]

Don't worry Luke. When the pitch floods, they'll all be sorry they laughed. *All of them.*

[@yipdog103]

Getting a switch for Christmas. Very excited

[@shadowmarshall6585]

the mass effect trilogy would be awesome on the switch

[@laterkater4213]

Just checked your Twitter wondering where this video was. You guys always make my Saturday nights!

[@rosielove4045]

LaterKater i get the S.O.T.W. at 6 am on saturday. You bet i watch them

[@benford1726]

So Link is the Doom guy and Zelda is the Dragon-born, who the heck is Ganon?

[@DreadWulfie]

Gannon fell through a portal and got mutated into Strong from Fallout 4

[@loganmatthews5956]

Steve from minecraft

[@dallydaydream]

So if Link's in Doom, and Zelda's in Skyrim... Who's driving the franchise?!

[@lazerbeams2536]

DallyDaydream tingle is

[@dallydaydream]

OH GOD

[@worzelXtreme]

no "Flamingos never Die" logo on the car

[@FictionWriter95]

Fun fact: there's a piece of "music" (I'd personally call it performance art) that consists of the performer walking out onto the stage, building a campfire, lighting the campfire, sitting next to the campfire for an indeterminate amount of time, putting out the campfire, and walking off stage. The "sheet music" is literally just one page with written verbal instructions.

[@SolidStuDoo]

Came for the intro music. Clicked like for the cherub faces. Unliked when Luke's voice went supersonic Clicked like again when Ellen started giggle-talking at the end.

[@cordeliaseil]

So has Jane’s plan finally worked? Will there be a dimension of her minions coming into the studio? God help us all.

[@Banquet42]

It'll be Delsin and a Zombified Playstation Access crew...

[@SarahAndreaRoycesChannel]

Zombified? I knew Delsin was pissed off, but not even stopping at killing Rob? Didn't know he had it in him.

[@Banquet42]

I dunno, honeybadgers are meant to be vicious so I just assumed all badgers would have some kind of evil streak. Is that me being badgerist? If he's at a mystical temple then a martial arts based revenge would be more likely but I'm interested in how it all pans out...

[@archonerikr]

Three reasons I love Ellen: 1: "Luke, it's show of the weekend!" 2: "AH!!!" 3: *plays Skyrim in triumph, all hail Ellen"

[@laurendrake215]

Luke handling colored pens is me handling my life and classes during college, always with unbridled enthusiasm and positivity until OH GOD I'VE MADE A MISTAKE

[@bevvox]

Elle Dee ditto

[@Kinvarus1]

Damn when they first said who would narrate your life I was immediately like "Morgan Freeman obviously! If you can have Morgan Freeman you take Morgan Freeman"....Then I heard Andy's narration and now I'm all about Narrator Andy, that would be awesome.

[@marcherwitch9811]

What, luke? You had zelda join 'let's make skyrim great again' nord masterrace stormcloaks!?!

[@MrMuel1205]

Spiders to the rescue again.

[@palindrome2599]

22:07 Ellen's face when Luke said 'Nobbie' 😂

[@paintlaser]

A little disappointed that Luke's car doesn't have attack horns or a defensive frill

[@daafaev15]

paintlaser or thumb-like appendages that make it look like he's permanently Fonzing

[@jamesanthony8438]

If Luke wanted to add height to it, he should've gone with the fins from the 1989 Batmobile (the only TRUE Batmobile). This would've vastly improved the speed and aerodynamics of his vehicle instead of turning it into Jeremy Clarkson's Leaning Tower Of Citroen caravan. :)

[@gregoryspringfield2423]

The best moment of my week is when I see show of the weekend pop up on my KZbin subscription feed. Also kippers on the switch? Portable kippers? #kippersonthego

[@Dreamklubdk]

The very best part of this video is Ellen looking at the camera at 18.05. I can even tell you it was better in slow motion! Best use the that KZbin function!

[@jamietaaffe171]

13:48 A tear rolls down my face as I see one of my most loved game series, which was very underrated (epsecially the second one), being acknowledged by my one of my favourite KZbin channels :')

[@aCure4me]

Saturday 8 AM in Argentina, I think I slept almost 10 hours in the whole week between work and exams, but hell yes, the only day I can actually sleep, my "Show of the Weekend" cellphone alarm went off and here I am.

[@itsdeonlol]

Merry Switchmas Ellen & Luke!!!!

[@dizzygunner]

For the reasons you said, I CANNOT play a new game of skyrim without the live another life mod.

[@Paladin585]

When she said L.A. Noire, I could have sworn she said Ellen Noire. Now I'm picturing a black and white edition of show of the weekend.

[@Bear_Incorporated]

I'm almost to skyrim. I just need to finish Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, and Oblivion.

[@Odylg]

Chosun Kodiak you're so close!

[@realism_logic]

Honestly, I never got to play Skyrim because of Oblivion. It's the good old nostalgia, I assume.

[@usbiv223]

Good to see the official Show of the Weekend clipboard back in action!

[@stillyoung3997]

Luke’s car should have had a flamingo figurehead.

[@alyindar]

"What isn't improved by a lightning bolt?" Harry Potter's family life. *zing*

[@Eabalo2]

If that car actually works it would truly be a switchmas miracle. *laughs hysterically at own joke*

[@NimbleTack]

In the Oxtra and Oxbox panto this year I would like to see Ebeneezer Jane going home from her day job of demolishing orphaneges by catapulting orphans at them in order to build statues of herself and find herself haunted by the ghosts of Switchmas Past, Present and Future. At the end, having learnt her lesson, she captures them all in a ghost trap and forces them to work doing all her admin because ghosts don't need to sleep or be paid and orphan catapulting is a fairly paperwork intensive business.

[@frodobaggins7710]

Oxbox/Oxtra possible Rocket League line up: Luke: already done. Ellen: Small and nimble, possibly with some KoA decals and her Giggle-ton power to help her jump. Jane: Not even a car, just a monster truck with a giant laser and spikes everywhere. Andy: Camoflage decal, he appears out of nowhere and steals the ball. Mike: He's on fire and sets everything else on fire, crashing into other cars and causing them to explode and catch on fire, he creates explosions to jump and uses fire to boost.

[@Sableagle]

"Not even a car" is right, but I think Jane's ride would look more like [spoiler warning] this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKfXh35pfN2ihZY

[@anabear9485]

Ellen's ploy to get the switch away from Luke is the best one I've seen. Time to use that to get candy, a phone and then the world....oh Wait

[@nickcap7355]

25:33 This earned a like. More Cherubic Ellen and Luke faces lol.

[@DragonHeartGamer]

I only started playing skyrim for the first time last week, when it came out it was too expensive for me to buy and I've been too busy since then. Watching your adventures with Kippers was actually one of the things that led me to finally getting around to play it!

[@nummy_nummers]

Biological meat sword: the only choice for this year's switchmas dinner

[@ianstotts4028]

nummy nummers Enjoy your biological meat swords with a heaping side of Screaming Meat-bags™!

[@jcarbone811]

You can avoid that bit with the long meeting if you finish the civil war questline.

[@zerin25]

Yessssss! My suspicions have been confirmed!! Andy *would* make a great life narrator!

[@UNDRTKR90]

Thought of a pun about Lukes car that Ellen probably would have enjoyed. Luke loves boats, so he gave his car some Steamboat Wheelies.

[@abbeymarie2491]

Luke was so excited for the markers that he couldn't open the bag. His enthusiasm makes me wish I could send him the giant 96 colour box of crayons.

[@KieranRichards]

Luke's car: "Next up, horns. I want a horn here, here, and here! You can never find a good horn when you are mad! And they should all play La Cucaracha!"

[@marcherwitch9811]

We put the Switchmas Star on the Switchmas Tree... ...and Mario nicked it!

[@griff9288]

Outside Xtra doesn't make mistakes! They exist in a choose your own adventure and are just constantly flipping pages to get the best result!

[@adamkuklis3012]

Luke: "Oh! More pens!" Ellen *tries not to look in the place where the pens were... and burst in laughter*

[@dubbingsync]

Henceforth November 18th is forever known as Switchmas. Merry Switchmas everyone.

[@petermillions1176]

I feel like the mascot for Switchmas would be Mother Switchmas, who comes to steal gifts from the bad children, expel some milk and cookies, and scramble up the chimney and, wait, this sounds like a horror movie. I hear it now.

[@pokemonplaya7714]

I really hope you put Switchmas on all of your December/Christmas videos.

[@cvalentine5851]

Luke has the same excitement on his face searching for that clue as my son does while looking for clues or treasure. He also likes dinosaurs and pirate ships. I must be raising the boy right!

[@treevis400]

Loved the Nord accent Luke! It made me click the like button:)

[@noahbutter1243]

I wish it could be switchmas, everydaaayy

[@Ab_Slab]

Can we get a reversed Ellen laughing fit. Please. I need that joy in my life.

[@Draugo]

Interesting choices... I would go for Charles Dance (Havelock Vetinari)... or Jeremy Irons (Havelock Vetinari), it's so hard to choose.

[@jhsand1515]

Now I'm imagining Luke in that Spongebob episode with the magical conch. "Can I eat?" "No."

[@DarkJediMaster79]

Ellen has such a wonderfully joyful laugh. Thank you

[@Sableagle]

Andy narrating your life: gets bored, puts some music on his headphones, starts singing along. You: anxiety attack.
