Show of the Weekend: Ellen vs Detective Pikachu's Murder Mystery Challenge

[@outsidextra]

Show of the Weekend!! Can Ellen and Detective Pikachu crack the grisly case of the Oxtra studio poisoning? And what noise would other beloved game characters make if they could talk? Descend into the murky world of Luke's Detective Pikachu quiz to find out. Plus Dead of Winter, your comments, bloopers and much more!

[@bradywakens3904]

Can you do the moana just dance?

[@edwardnigma9756]

Strap a few of those warm zombies together and lock them in the basement and now you've got an underfloor heating system! I bet you could even strap them up near a water turbine and use them to produce electricity at zero carbon emission. If you really think about it, this zombie apocalypse is not so bad after all.

[@Drachen596]

There's a channel that's played dead of winter for a video before. The TableTop gaming serious which has(or had) Wil Wheaton as a host. They have played a LOT of different games for their series ranging from simple quick games to some pretty in depth ones.

[@nerodeathstep5239]

I wanna watch them playing the board game.

[@Sableagle]

When did British people start using the American "off of" thing? {suspicious glare}

[@samgonzalez8662]

I'm not going to lie, I doubted Ellen's choices for her voices but she got them spot on. But nothing will ever be better than Andy's Senu voice.

[@Gammera2000]

Sam Gonzalez Aka Arin's Toad voice.

[@axetaker55]

13:28 I put this timestamp here so I can listen to Andy's Senu impersonation any time I want.

[@micahnewby7964]

The hero we need

[@christopersinambela337]

Andy's impression of senu atleast deserve an oscar......(claps slowly)

[@bugwandis]

I legit don't think I've laughed so much at an outside xbox or outsidextra moment since Sexy Dancing Chad.

[@kiskillilla223]

Maybe there is a reason these silent characters are silent....

[@konomimkp]

That bit got me in tears. The spirit of an impressionable kid and the voice of an old northern granny

[@neilcognito]

Frost Pirate26 One could say, he was the *high* of this adventure

[@jamesscoggin860]

I *actually* did a spit take at that point.

[@warandpoetry9542]

No way Mike poisoned Andy. Not enough random NPC murders and rubber duck explosions.

[@bobnewbie8262]

The trail of devastation was just off camera...

[@LucasONeill-mj3rz]

Bailey Alexis Snow Agreed

[@Stevihj]

No way Mike would poison Andy. He might strike him down in a hail of bullets which would take out the rest of the crew!

[@hellpunisher]

No way Mike could poison Andy. That requires stealth!

[@Crimson_Rogue97]

More voice acting for characters! Please! 😂😂😂

[@missdinosaur1887]

BAYEK I'M FREAKING OUT!!!!

[@DoubleScarlet]

'I'd like to apologize to anyone with any sort of accent?' Ellen I don't think it was so bad to insult everyone on the planet. But note to self, do not drink scalding hot coffee when Andy does a 'Senu'. Many parts of my body hurt!

[@sinisterbutterfli]

Anyone else want to see the cut scenes with Andy's Senu voice?

[@domlocke3845]

I want more than that, patch them into the game Ubi or we (more likely I) will riot!

[@ComanderScar]

Andy should voice act all of Senu in the entirety of ACOrigins. Just rerelease it as the "Andy Edition"!

[@Darkmoon_Matt]

Want? We NEED it.

[@hiunaut2833]

I can never stop imagining Senu talking to me in Andy's voice.

[@dragon-kitty]

How about a Moose? - I never want to stop

[@TheRupertLitterbin]

Can we have a Luke focused dlc for just dance?

[@oldspice051]

I think that would involve a lot of falling over on the floor and crying.

[@TheRupertLitterbin]

oldspice051 I'm an expert already then xD

[@tauntauncity7651]

You should have used a revive, not smelling salts.

[@kaizoaudio1798]

Andy would do anything for a Rare Candy. We all know that.

[@jackborn3491]

[@marhawkman303]

[@kiskillilla223]

24:25 Luke: "Hey come on Ellen, it's just a theory...a game theory" Ellen: "Wrong chanel!" Luke:"Yeah, I knooowww" I appreciate that🤓 I wouldn't mind a crossover, I wouldn't mind at all!😁

[@myrrhfortheroad]

I wouldn't mind either! That would be incredible!!

[@SusStardust]

Same! They would be awesome together.

[@homelessmexican410]

I remember an outsidexbox reference in a game theory video once. Who knows about a crossover, anything's possible

[@robertoaldaba3145]

One reference happens here, and I totally loved it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHSzkqisgt2JbbMm20s

[@JanAside]

Kiskil Lilla game theory did reference them once that I know of.

[@thecastawaydc]

ANDY IS DEAD! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oh, nice jacket. Can I have it? Oh He's alive...I'm so glad...But can I still have the jacket?

[@2013Fangirl]

Ellen: "It's called Dead of Winter." Luke: "Sounds cool." Andy, that was your chance! Where's the BOO?!

[@VoidlessHue]

My sides hurt from laughter! Andy's Senu voice was the best thing I've heard in a while Nice twist at the killer, though. Most people probably thought it would be Jane

[@jocosesonata]

I thought Luke was expecting that conclusion, knowing that we'll assume that the killer will be the one that's most likely to commit a little assassination, Jane, and then throwing in the plot twist of it being James all along. I definitely didn't expect Mike. Luke knows how to put in a good plot twist.

[@fireredemblem4943]

Jocose Sonata Jane wouldn't do the actual dirty work. She manipulated the situation so that Mike would go after Andy. Why do you think he mysteriously "fell down some stairs" as he was taken away? The mark of a true mastermind.

[@jocosesonata]

Plot twists appearing left and right. We thought it was Jane, turning into a twist revealing James as the culprit, but was really Mike, but was really actually Jane all along. Either Luke's a genius with plot twists, or Jane is more active in orchestrating her strings behind the material plane. Or even perhaps, Jane is mentoring Luke.

[@xscaliersolid1194]

It's the last one.

[@danmoar5102]

"Doc, have you managed to determine the cause of death?" "I have! It's winter. He's dead of winter."

[@ramiszulfiqar1186]

Andy's Senu voice was the best thing I have seen all YEAR!!

[@Nono-hk3is]

Hot, Steamy Zombies is the name of my autobiography.

[@MetaManGamingTM]

Sounds like a Warm Bodies fan-fic

[@michaldanek7734]

Are you Tina from Bob's Burgers?

[@domlocke3845]

What a great read. I just finished reading my "Hot, Steamy Zombies: Too Hot for Hell" edition.

[@joenesvick7043]

I’ve seen Ellen in purple pants. Now she’s in a purple shirt. If she combines the two, she’d really blend in the sofa. “Where is that laughter coming from?”

[@TP-wn7tb]

Stealth Ellen ?

[@jamesross6219]

7:13 The moment Ellen realizes Andy & Mike have exposed a plot-hole to "Dead of Winter" and must now employ her dance skills from earlier to evade the collapse of her entire board gaming world. Also, did we discover the true identity of "J"?? Who is the mysterious individual who lured poor Andy to his doom? What profit did they gain from Mike's attack? Did "J" supply the nutmeg & plan the attack? Mike's typically a "death by explosion" type of person, poisoning is too subtle for him. Mike was the fall guy ... "J" is the real culprit. But is "J" the all too obvious Jane? Or is it the quiet, unassuming and therefore easily missed James??

[@HinekoAkahi]

I genuinely love how much effort Luke puts into these adventures of his - and how much Oxbox are willing to indulge him xD

[@stace218]

Ok my white shirt is now covered in coffee from laughing with a mouthful at Andy and Mike pretending to be Senu. Thanks a lot guys!

[@HOUSEofROLLS]

At 0:50 when Luke is leaning on the bookcase-thing Groot is moving left and right (because of the leaning obviously), it’s very eerie *shivers*

[@Mysticcocotheone]

I have never face palmed harder in my life than when Luke went and said, "It's just a theory. A GAME THEORY!!" I face palmed so bad I woke my parents up in the middle of the night including all the my neighbors down the block.

[@Scaramouche-hu5gu]

No matter how many spoons I start out with in a day, I can always count on the OX crew to help me find a few more. Thanks for being the best people with the best community on the internet.

[@cyberperson53]

I can't say that I agree with Luke's cannibalising-the-dead policy for Icetown, but I am strongly in favour of his dance policy. [Pulls the lever for Luke]

[@nighttiger314]

The title on the KZbin Page only showed "Ellen vs Detective Pikachu's," and I just immediately assumed "Ellen vs Detective Pikachu's ridiculous cuteness." Gotta say I was just a bit disappointed by the real title.

[@turnipgoat5916]

I figured it was her investigating who punched Pikachu on Outside XBox... (Pssst spoilers: it was Jane.)

[@joshuaaskew3620]

Who else wants the OX teams to play Dead of Winter now?

[@hamdoggyy7844]

Joshua Askew yesssss

[@dragon-kitty]

Joshua Askew - Have the character backgrounds as the different northern houses in got!

[@thisisodsmith]

How long before Jane kneecaps everyone else and abandons them to the hoard?

[@maureen_83]

I do. I own all the Dead of Winter board games and it is so much fun. And one of the Oxbox/Oxtra crew can secretly betray the team. I would watch as many episode as it takes to find out who is the traitor.

[@David-nl4qb]

They would have to do it with the Betrayer! That would be amazing entertainment.

[@MysteriousMrL]

That cold, hard look on Ellen's face as the big discussion about zombie logic begins. "You can't be serious... I'm talking about a board game. This is not a productive area of discussion... Guys? GUYS."

[@RayLumos]

Just to put it out there because I feel like it, thank you, thank you for your work and for making people of all age happy and putting a smile on there faces can't be easy coming up with all that stuff but you are doing great just Thank you I hope there will be a lot more videos ☺️

[@pandamiranda5864]

Hearing Ellen's laugh is the best part of my week. Thank you; I'm really grateful to be part of the 435k subscribers.

[@brocksisson7128]

Everything about this episode was amazing. Andys Senu voice was inspired. Can we please get another boardgame video, even if it's just monopoly or something like that.

[@dragon-kitty]

Brock Sisson - I agree with having another board game episode but monopoly really? Do you want the guys to get murdered horribly? I know we have a bunch of Andy clones and Mike robots but what about poor Luke?

[@brocksisson7128]

We all know Jane has clones of the entire OX family, even James stashed away in her secret bunker.

[@Ckoz2829]

Oh man, Ellen said Dead of Winter takes a few hours, Monopoly will take them a few days! Why can’t they play something short and sweet like Candy Land? I love that game.

[@dragon-kitty]

Brock Sisson - nope, it's clone Andys, robot Mikes and alternate Lukes. Not sure what she does to poor James tho

[@a_wild_desmond_appeared]

Ellen: well you seem thirsty do u want some tea Criminal: um okay thank you? * Ellen leaves * * pikachu enters incredibly angry * Pikachu: HOW COULD U * Pikachu angrily try’s to throw a table over but because of how small and weak he is it barely moves * Pikachu: DAMMIT * in a huff Pikachu goes under the table and proceeds to climb up the criminals body * Pikachu: WHY DID U KILL HIM Aaaand scene thank you thank you all so much my finest work yet

[@wuwupyon]

This was amazingly funny! I must admit, I kept watching the second time around to see if Andy’s face and body would move when he was “dead” Luke as officer Popplio’s aid was great. (Mike stealth killing, eh? eh?) I admit, I thought James when I first saw the -J

[@sahilhussain7328]

What I love about this show is that you can see that you guys are having fun?

[@daafaev15]

Dropped my croissant when i saw Dodie

[@ianstotts4028]

daafaev15 I had to rewind, lol. I was like, "Wait... Dodie... As in Dodie Clark?" Between Brighton and London, are there any non-youtubers in the Southern UK?

[@BexTrokerKey]

This was a classic of an episode. I have just rewatched the section with Senu's voice about 6 times for the absolute joy it bring's me to laugh, out loud, that hard. You guys are awesome 😃

[@christopersinambela337]

That kirby dance was great btw

[@musicadictor]

23:36 Ellen is as threatening as a kitten! As in, she will claw your eyes out and you'll do nothing but smile, because *so adorable*!

Who knew Senu was a Monthy Python character?

13:00 - 13:50 *kitty laughing hysterically in the middle of the street* - thankfully said street was empty so no straight jackets for now 😹😹

[@geekwithglasses2897]

I still can't get over the fact Ellen is friends with all my favourite youtubers: Dodie, Daniel, Sammy, Sam and the Xbox crew

[@lessssel4811]

Luke- It’s just a theory Me- A GAME THEORY!!! Luke- a game theory! Me-Tin foil hat time!

[@elliottwatt5297]

That detective pikachu section was better than L.A. Noire. Ellen is the perfect companion to Detective Pikachu.

[@Taracinablue]

Oh, man, my face hurts from grinning/laughing. Even though I didn't get all the Pokemon jokes, the detective sequence might've been the funniest quiz/challenge yet, and that's saying something!

[@AWSAM335]

Stop making poor ol' Luke look you in the eyes, Ellen! He'll hurt his neck!

[@caitlinmolinar8019]

7:06 Now I really, really, REALLY want a video of both OX teams figuring out how zombies work. I was so disappointed when Ellen stopped them! It was fascinating!

[@MrLutocm]

Luke, I sincerely hope we can expect your full detective pikachu novel later this year. Might i sugest making it a choose your own adventure book?

[@jocosesonata]

I don't know if making it a full on, hardcover novel is a good idea. Think of all the ways you can die of dysentery. Might take a few months to finish it.

[@AJTheGeek]

The best part of the outtakes is how long Ellen waited for the yoyo to return... like it was just biding its time before zipping back up the string.

[@polkarrty]

guys ellen is friends with dodie clark

[@alanjhonson2298]

Ellen’s face while she’s struggling to keep her rage at James in check for questioning her board game is my new favourite thing.

[@reececowell6642]

Luke: new mayor of Ice town. I never knew Luke was Ben Wyatt

[@ivanterrible7362]

Was the Parks and Rec reference intentional? I'm gonna say yes b'cuz I want Luke to be cool (ice pun unintentional).

[@jarmarmarn4323]

The tall hair gives it away

[@chefrowlet]

oh my head, the Senu voice skit was the funniest thing i've seen all week! Thanks for the laughs, guys!

[@southbeat5354]

It was Jane. She murdered Pikachu in the Show of the Week. Never mind I misread the situation.

[@BewareTheJadePhoenix]

I lost it at "I see people!". Reminds me of Bill Burr's act with a baseball player on steroids, wide-eyed and hyped. "I cannot see every stitch!!!"

[@tuyrh333l.t5]

when luke pointed at the camera i thought he ment james motivation: jelousy in andys beard means- he always the the place where the crime took place,he makes food for the crew did james help ellen get andys shoes?

[@JKM395]

This is the best show on the internet! You continually make my day better. Thank you guys!

[@matthewhardwick8208]

Hmm, Ellen you should probably stick to yoga for your own benefit, and Luke's physical health 😄

[@michiev]

Andy's "unconscious" acting was really good, I honestly don't know how he held it together for that long. I would have burst out laughing.

[@NathanWeeks]

To be fair to Ellen, we all thought it was Jane. Even before we heard any evidence. Pikachu "There has been a murder ..." Everyone "It was Jane!" Pikachu "Don't you want to examine the..." Everyone "No! Shoot her before she runs!"

[@NobalGaming]

This was my favourite episode of OUTSIDE anything ever! I loved it! Bayek is amazing!!

[@s-n256core4]

Was anyone else waiting for Jane to jump in and punch Pikachu again? It can't have just been me.

[@bobnewbie8262]

I was waiting for that grand finale, yes!

[@sevatarlives185]

I know this is Outside "Xbox", but the crew is really likeable and top marks to them for playing all sorts of games in "alternative" formats.

This is hands down the best SOTW so far, could not stop snorting laughter xD

[@davidrobertson2077]

Andy’s completely lost the plot 😆 We’ve gotta get some more skits going, voice acting is on poiiiint!!

[@Blacklight308]

Anyone who spent some time on the channel likely assumed that Jane was behind that most heinous crime, but it was Mike! A mighty fine red herring you gave us there, Oxtra, well done...

[@CucumberSadness]

When you are watching Ellen talk about her friends and see someone you knew years ago, so you look them up to see what they are doing now and it turns out they are somewhat famous... o_o I would like to say this has been my weirdest experience of today but... alas it is not. X'D

[@demonicgrub1025]

Gotta love it when the other players move to your location and role a bite, 2 times in a row, just before your turn. Ahhh, dead of winter

[@lewayprevis]

Unusually high concentration of nutmeg... Did Mike switch the juice in the juice box for a royal conservatory cooler?

[@DanielSvensson666]

That Senu killed me. I am still laughing and my stomach hurts now. That was just TOO funny.😂😂😂

[@McDDcM]

Calling it an ugly crime just because it involves Andy seems a bit harsh. Shame on you Luke.

[@adamg157]

I love how Triko has become Perry from Kevin & Perry, "Yes Mrs Paterson" Also Ellen, you so remind me of my current choreographer that I'm working with currently 😂😂

[@moirak5332]

Ellen is friends with Sammy and Dan, and my universes are crossing. Waiting for the Dodie cover of Show of the Weekend and the immonent implosion of my American brain. EDIT: Dodie was there, my universes have 100% crossed, and do all Brits know each other? Is this a thing? How? Why? Your country is so small. I need a nap.

[@kiddy1992]

She also knows Thomas Tomska Ridgewell

[@HighSummoner_Izzy]

Wow. That was a shocking ending to that whole Detective Ellen mystery. It was edge of the seat drama from beginning to start! Ellen, she’s the sleuthing heroine we never expected but the one we always needed!!

[@mimmikyu2404]

Hey Ellen here’s a tip for a Bostonian about the accent you say all A’s as R’s and O’s as A’s for example cot sounds like cart

[@thekrautist]

Well, Julius was more of a stabbish type.

[@rumotu]

PixelJanosz you are right. My fault. It's just in my language stab and cut are the same. Sorry.

[@thekrautist]

Odd language. But who am I to talk, in mine "Lock" and "Castle" are the same, as are "Faucet" and "Rooster".

[@polkarrty]

in mine love and expensive have the same word

[@gwerith]

Andy and Mike as Senu was FANTASTIC! I laughed so damn hard!

[@Crimson_Rogue97]

Wait Luke has a Fontaine Futuristics shirt!? What video was it and where can I get one?

[@domlocke3845]

I know right? Like set up a link to where you get your sweet shirts already.

[@Ckoz2829]

I dunno if this is where Luke got his shirt, but I remember in another Show of the Weekend someone in the comments said it was from insert coin clothing.com. If you can’t find it there, you could try Redbubble, teepublic, or the yettee. Be forewarned, though, red bubble unisex tees fit kinda weird, at least for me. They’re always a bit tight in the chest and sleeves and are real long. You could try their classic tees. I dunno how they fit, but they are a few bucks cheaper. As for the other websites, I’m not sure.

[@davidrobertson2077]

This is perfect timing guys! Thanks so much! Now I have some wonderful voices to help me fall asleep

[@anabear9485]

Ellen has never been so terrifying as when she was a dance instructor. I guess it's true that shorter people are capable of being more scary.

[@dragon-kitty]

Anabear - yes, yes we are

[@jocosesonata]

I guess that explains why Luke seems like such a sweetheart.

[@Sableagle]

I don't think it's the height. I think it's the possibility that she'd get you to dance where people can see you. That's what scares me. The idea she might get me to try to dance. That's the part that haunts my nightmares. Even the dimples and puppy eyes have nothing on that thought.

[@domlocke3845]

Sableagle it 100 percent is the height. We short people have to be able to get into tall peoples heads to get anywhere in life. Sure, we can physically do a lot, but we'll always have people looking down on us... literally. Naturally, we have to counter said psychological advantage by being strangely terrifying when the need arises. Also we're at prime knee capping height.

[@jocosesonata]

Don't forget you're also at crotch striking height.

[@melissasilvy47]

You didn't examine the body! "I poked him!" Best line ever on the show, ever!!

[@ryanfrounks]

Can Ellen be in Dragon Age 4? With voice acting like that I need her as a strong Dalish Elf

[@joenesvick7043]

I’d love to hear her laughter in it too

[@ryanfrounks]

Joe Nesvick oh hell yeah... just imagine you're there fighting a Darkspawn and all you can hear is Ellen's laughter... this needs to happen

Is it just me or does Luke fall down a lot?

[@Canadian_Zac]

High centre of gravity. Doesn't take a lot to push it too far and knock him off balance

[@patrickracer43]

Daniel Lockley-Smith maybe Luke is Lara Croft from the 2013 reboot?

[@neilcognito]

[@colinpartridge4015]

Sounds good, but physics says no. Try balancing a broom and a pencil upright on your hand and let me know which one is easier. A more plausible explanation was given in the intro. He has weak knees and the rest of the crew is sadistic.

I have to applaud Andy for keeping a straight face during the last section of the quiz, and Luke for coming up with such a great finale.

[@thehylianyandere4291]

00:10 XD what the,...

[@MatthewAshworth]

Andy's and Mike's Senu voice was absolutely hilarious and funnily enough exactly how I'd imagine it. I hope one day to see the OX crew play a game that has no voice acting and provide voice acting of their own for each character.
