Looks like a Wayne's World backstage pass in the filming of it. Bet these guys rock it out hard. Win this contest and you should ask Mike Meyers to guest star in it!
Sexy; that is my rating for this video after careful consideration and review so that I might meet the one hundred character requirement and earn another merit badge in the comedy coup competition.
I hereby state that the following commentary is over the required 100 characters and is as follows: love it!
You guys have one of the best Ideas I have seen in this competition! Congratulations on making it this far! if my friends don't win this thing. I'm pulling for you guys for sure!
Thanks dude!
I don't have to go to out the window to the gym and the other day of any kind to me I love it when so you can get a job at a time time when the sun is out of a new sudden I have to be a able to do with a new song is the so much fun with the same time and I have to no one is going to to be a able good for to the long run the risk ballot in a statement from the start and It will be the best way to the point game is the best most important thing to say that you can get a the best of luck all to the bes
Like a show with a musical concept, definitely would like to see where this is going! Good luck!
i don't get it
Cool beat, cool song, cool video. Show . . . not sure about but everything else was cool. You guys have a huge following so congrats on top 15
Why Blackwater? Anyway, great rap I'd love to take you head to head on a "Rap Battle". Maybe at a Longe and Mcquade store. Lay down some wack lyrics!!! Good luck in the rest of Comedy Coup
I really enjoyed this week, the rap was great. I'm sure you guys will sail into the top 15 no problem. I'm excited to see the next mission.
Rapping was creative. Congrats on making the top 55 and good luck in the rest of the voting. Wishing you the best in the competition, your good friend Sharon.
Ok, I guess that you have been in a music store before. I still think that you don't have to go very far away from the characters that you'd find in a a music store to produce a comedy that engaged an audience. From the greenhorn, to the high functioning autistic gear head, to the frustrated shoulda been to the older guy who is only waiting for the day when he can retire and leave this bullshit behind...
While nobody could possibly argue that this is certainly a creative approach to the challenge, I think the nature of the rap has the unfortunate side effect of highlighting the worst elements of your characters. Specifically, this show -- which originally looked like it could be a lot of fun -- now looks like it's aggressively unrelatable.
The song is good, but the show seems like a generic Cheers just takes place in a music store. I think it can be good like It's always sunny in Philadelphia, but the characters seem too similar to them. Good Luck though.
Hey guys, nice job making the song but being full of yourselves is definitely what I take away from this haha
My Top 5 picks!
1. Wasted
2. Bike Cops
3. Roll for Damage
4.Infinite Possibilities
5. Geoff and the Ninja
Good luck in the competition guys! everyones been doing a pretty good job considering the time constraints to film each challenge.
Makin it look easy! Great quality stuff as per usual guys. I would be pretty shocked if you guys weren't one of the top 15 but I also have no idea how any of this works!!
While I like that you guys went the extra mile to write a song and essentially frame this week's challenge as a music video, all of the hype you're bringing up doesn't really hype the show. It more hypes the other projects that you've done, and that makes the show concept of "Blackwater Music" less compelling. However, your videos are great, tons of production value, and if you guys did win, you'd be able to pull off something great.
Lots of bravo. Lots of followers. Obviously you guys have got something going on. You are ambitious and are putting so much into each week. The joke may be short lived though.
There's lots of confidence behind these creators. The videos and performances show talent and capability. I find it hard to get on board with the arrogant delivery makes me not want to get to know this character. I hope the other characters can balance him out. All the best.
Congratulations on making it to the Top 55! Creative team, interesting concept. It’s tough to come up with solid product each week so kudos for your hard work. Best of luck moving into the top 15.
Great loved it from start to finish, everything was exceptional about this. I love videos, I love comedy and I love this sooooo much. All the best and best of luck in this glorious competition!!!!!!
i hope that this dysfunctional music store doesn't lead to a dysfunctional show on cbc primetime. nothing special here, move along people...
While I can see potential to the concept of a bunch of young guys working in music store (nice plug for L&Mc) I can also see it getting old fast. Hope you can maintain a higher standard. Good luck!
Lol love the new video. Keep kicking ass, guys!
Great acting and a great premise. Definitely one of the funnier videos. Good luck in the next round!
yeah, not sure you're living up to your original promise as a quirky The Office like shop with loser characters - oh, loser characters, can tv get past them any time soon? loser shows like the office have redeeming characters as balance. nice sell sheet and some good stuff for a journalist to hang a story off of.
I think you're gonna have to pull out your PR guy or GIRL in the next round if you want a shot at #1. Just not loving this, sorry... this is a competition where you gotta work your butt off to actually make it.
listen, you can brand us haters, but we're just people exploring projects here... there simply isn't anything original or eye-catching about you guys. kind of arrogant too. may want to address that?
i have to agree i just dont see the longevity here for a cbc show but i think maybe some skits on youtube could work and go viral or something like key and peele but i just dont think for this contest it would work but i tell you what if you make a youtube video i promise to share it on myfacebook page lol
Our scripts for the series are pretty money, if you vote us you'll get to see them woooo - But we definitely understand that we need more then sketches to make a season of TV, and we wrote the show accordingly, hopefully you get to see it!
hey guys , im sorry to say that i think this last video was not at all what people wanted to see. I think that the joke was not funny. It didn't make my laugh unfortunately, i think you should show us more of your comic side and honesty .
admit the shirt joke was kinda funny at least?

Welcome to Tulip
Wharf Rats
I watched this simply because of the high number of likes it has gotten so I had some high expectations when I came into it. Sorry to say I was highly disappointed instead. I found the video braggy and the concept dumb.
This video was funny even though it was almost too braggy. But it did seem like a youtube video sketch or something. I think you guys are definitely funny but I just don't want to watch a workaholics slacker comedy about music? Also don't know if it's really a CBC thing seems kinda like Much Music would love it though! Good Luck!
It's not really a slacker comedy, picture more weirdos then slackers. Our show and what we do is actually a lot different then workaholics I just have long curly hair is the only similarity haha. Check out other stuff we have made and you'll get our vibe.
I'm not sure why people have been negative with this video, I though it was creative, gave a lot of information on the team/series and was in the spirit of the character. Good luck getting to the Top15!
you had me with your first video, but I been slippin' away this video seemed to have missed for allot of folks, sorry but i'm one of them as well, Hope you can turn it around for the next mission, all the best in getting to the top 15!
Don't know and don't care about all the other quitters on you all but I'm sticking with you till the end and more. Your rap was way more creative than anyone else's in the weekly round and I've seen some lame contestants. As well as good ones but you put a small group of guys in a music shop and that's something I've never seen before. It sounds amazing. And u ARE original cuz I don't see anyone else with this out there. MattG you put effort into this and so is everyone else. I see the motivation and commitment. <3 hope you win guys I've fasted my votes for you
Congrats on all the fan votes and the support - I think you've done a great job in getting people on board, but I'm just not a fan myself. I won't add any other negativity, I agree with a lot of what has already been said. Good luck.
Sorry gents, gotta join the naysayers. Just doesnt feel like a good CBC show, or even a good show. Might make a decent indie film or youtube project though.
Well the song did provide a diffferent spin in terms of having a musical in the comedy but then again I think the batchelor boys are doing a comedy musical it just wasn't rap. Best wishes
I liked how this video was different than the other ones you guys have put out. The rap was a good idea. I enjoy your afro hair.
guys... honestly, rock is dead as is nietzche and god all at once, i don't think i'd like to see another one of these shows on TV. sure you can rack up fans, but your originality falls into an ocean of similar projects. it would stand great on its own. there's a certain arrogance in your manner too and that, although in the current age of the ME generation is nothing new, is somewhat gauche.
Can be funny, but nothing original. Another song to an old tune. Not impressed!
I' ll classify myself before I pass on judgement to this What ? Video ?
I am to old for this. The music store is a great idea and full of what if's, but that video is too long without having content nor comedy. I would turn the channel real quick. I'm expressing my age and my dislike for some guy behaving so self centeredly Is that a word? The music store idea is great, the failure of a music store is tragic. I would like comedy ... the kid who comes in to buy his first harmonica and starts blowin wind ! or the guy who sings like Stompin Tom and needs a new mic.
Best to you all, it looks like you have lots of followers.
yea we are definitely shooting for a specific demo, i will say that - But good news for you is we do mention stomping tom in our next video!
Amazing work. super funny stuff and I truly believe you guys will be top 15 with some other great teams. All the hardwork and dedication this team have presented is outstanding. wow
Pretty good but there is lots of competition out there!!!!!!!!!!!! Lots of other competitors competing against everyone in the competition!!!!!!!! Good luck to you and everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you guys seem a bit arrogant and not that into this project. or at least not into it for the right reasons. but its cool that youre doing a live event in welland - i am from near there and would have liked to come if i hadnt had other plans because i would have liked the chance to meet you in person
You have got to love the dichotomy of comments here. Some people loved this, other people, in spite of the positive comment requirement really hated it. Here's what I think: we really need to think about our abundance of natural resources in Canada. We could use them to help save the world...we could also jack our prices way up and make all kindsa international dough....look, this is my last comment before I get my votes. Good luck guys!
Most of Canadian's hate Toronto. So other than being a part of a Toronto music store and already having access to your network of LONG AND MCQUADE clients, what makes you unique. In this I felt attitude and entitlement, neither of which are funny to me and if this is Satirical you totally missed the mark. #FlightoftheConchords
It might not make us unique, but it's definitely a cool angle to get press, ya know? that was the point of bringing it into the mix.
Great hype video. Caught my attention and kept me interested. You are keeping things interesting, and the story line has lots of potential. Keep the creativity flowing and hope you make it to the top 15!
Cute characters. Will watch for some more. Good luck with this weeks voting!
I really like you guys. I think your project is fun and interesting I really liked the video of ryan and danny in lab coats behind the computer. That one was really charming. Your first teaser as well was pretty cool. This one I am less behind. #behumble #benice
haha! This was hilarious! Excellent rapping. Fantastic wardrobe. Good on-screen chemistry. Win, win win. And I actually found out about the project to boot. well done!
This video was well shot and put together but I didn't feel the hype. Still, you guys are doing well. Good luck!
Seems aimed at a younger audience -I found the rap annoying but the video overall was filmed well with good sound quailty.
Really funny rap parody video this time around. Gave a good overview of the show and it's background for anyone new to your concept as well. Some may find it abrasive but that's all in the game for this kind of boast rap.
I don't think anything about this show is funny but I guess comedy is different for everyone. I don't like the guy in this at all and I don't think the rapping is any good. Where is the rest of the cast? I guess I just don't get this.
Funny stuff fellas. You put a lot of work into this video. It shows. I'm always tracking with your show. Royal - Littleton Falls Settler Village
I thought your rap music and the video were pretty good. Your lyrics could have been geared more to why we should watch your show instead of poking fun at Corner Gas and bragging about your other accomplishments etc. Good luck in the next round!
That's the whole point though! We do things a lot differently in our crew then they do on other shows. If you like corner gas thats cool, this is just way different, and like to think were breaking new ground with our methods of how to write and make tv.
Dope yo!
i like the idea of using an original song in this video. its a unique spin on the task and it makes you stand out from the pack. great work guys. looking forward to whats to come
Nice concept using a song in this video.. pretty funny stuff! It does come off as a little cocky but I think most people would see that it's part of the shtick. You guys have been putting out some solid videos.. interested to see how you "Flip" your concept if you make it into the top 15! All the best from the east coast!
Like the idea of a song to tell your story. Fun. Would grab a media person pretty quick and then there's the content inside the vid to keep them. Not bad.
Good job on creating a fun song to hype up your fan base. A little bit cocky in some of the lyrics but generally funny and exciting. Good work guys, and hope to see you in top 15.
Good Luck!

The third one….. yup!!! goood choice!! :)
Regardless of where you end up among the others, you guys are obviously committed! ... or should be, lol! I think you hyped it gooder with this one. Great job
Regardless of whether or not people liked your video, you've gotten a lot of views and comments and obviously put a lot of work into it. Good job hyping it up.
Good luck in the contest. The video is well done. It’s getting to be a tight contest. I wish you all the best. What’s next if you don’t make the cut? You should check out your local film festival.
As much as I'm jealous of your set and production value this is really funny, the first trailer had some really solid jokes and this one is wall to wall. Even if main dudes hair makes him look like Blake from Workaholics. Seriously, good job.
I just like you guys. totally random. great production value. interesting and funny stuff. congratulations on making it to top 55 and good luck on making it to the next level
Great song. Multi-talented individuals. Great concept. I enjoy your humor. Your work is entertaining and will appeal to many. Keep up the good work and I wish you well making it to the next level.
I really liked your video from week one but I haven't seen anything that really lives up to it since then. The concept is good and there is a lot of potential....sadly I haven't seen any of it yet. Sorry guys, this is not for me.
man your first video was so good, this one didn't sell me. What does the Wayne's World connection to your parents' music store have to do with your show? Write some more comedy, it was funny in that one video
The connection is that its a cool angle to get press!!!
Blackwater Music's Hype It video was very good. It was clever and funny and showed the great potential it has as a pilot. The Q and A is very interesting and I hope it goes well. Good cast of characters. Good luck in this next round
Did you really just submit this as your weekly video? Did you not consider all the negative feedback you were going to receive due to your behaviour and being so full of yourselves? I liked your first video, but you lost me here.
Some of the Comedy Coup audience didn't like it but a lot of people got that it was a joke and found it funny, everything i learned about rap i learned from Chingy, so if you have a problem with the rapping take it up with him.
If you've got a good concept, depth of characters, unlimited potential for interesting story lines that make me laugh hysterically, then I hope you will continue onto the next level. Best of luck to you!
was kind of interested from the teaser video but man, i'm really not feeling it. nice to know your parents own a chain store, i guess?
I'm not a big fan of rap music and your Hype Video just comes across as being "dated" when it's being chanted by Ryan, who looks like a leftover from Led Zeppelin. Did you guys earn commission for marketing Long & McQuade ?
I did like the music video, it was catchy. I expect the show will appeal to certain demographic. If hot music is incorporated into each episode and the jokes have some depth it could be worth watching.
We are definitely going to incorporate music into the show!
It'll be interesting to see what you come up with. Looks like you've got lots of votes but I'm unsure how accessible a show about a music store will be to non-musicians. Maybe a little too much product placement dropping the shop's name? I wonder if the CBC will make you go generic with the name. In any case, I hope songs are a regular part of it!
I liked your music video. It will be interesting to see how viable this idea is as the number of music shops (sadly) continues to dwindle. Hopefully this works for you and moves your concept forward. Congratulations on cracking the Top 55!
The number of record stores is dwindling but the number of Musical Instrument stores is actually growing. Check it out! its true! .... Bottom line, music will never die :)
Congrats on top 55, can't wait to see more of what you guys can do with a music shop comedy. Expecting to see some strange and unusual characters pop in!
Congratulations on making the top 55! Your project looks really funny and makes me interested to see more. Best of luck!
cool song. Got a bit of a workaholics vibe here. I like seeing the best of the best compete here. funny and good production. best of luck!
I have to say that I liked the song. The whole thing was actually really well made. However, a lot of the fans seemed put off by your lack of modesty. Angering lots of people certainly is a quick way to get some publicity, but some of the comments for this week seem to suggest that you've cost yourself some votes with the direction of this video.
Hey guys! In my opinion, there's something there... I don't know what you usually up to, but i can see potential and funny stuff. On the other hand, you're not that different from many sitcom that i already know, but you seem to have some good characters. I think you just need to go further with the characters. Good luck! by the way, sorry for my english, my first language is french! :)
Oh my gosh I hope this was a joke. It was extremely offensive if it wasn't. I think you made some low blows and you were the only group that went the annoying extremely cocky angle. Not good.
Mia it's a comedy competition.
Great job guys and congratulations on making it to week 5, looking forward to seeing what week 6 brings. Best of luck
I still really like the idea of the show and hope that people won't forget what the actual show is about.
Your media hype seemed more of a match for a Much Music Video commercial and not a comedy channel. Great raping skills but I got a little bored. The overall production looked professional. Quite enjoyed the teaser, but since then I have been a bit disappointed. Your project seems to be all over the place, hope you can reign it back.. Good luck!
We wholeheartedly second that Dylan.
REALLY hope you meant to say "rapping skills"
I'm not sure if this material would be suitable for a weekly sit-com on the CBC. Your premise is good, but I think you'd have to make it a little more audience friendly... depending on the audience. You're edgy and appealing to a specific demographic. Good luck!
I was definitely disappointed in you guys this week. You started out really strong in mission 1. It looked like a great idea in a broad strokes sense. But, it seems like your bravado and ego have made you lose your way and now you've gotten so far away from your show it difficult to connect the dots. I have no doubt the vote will go your way. But good luck anyway.
while I watched this my mouth was wide open....from horror and disgust. I am not sure if this was intentional to come across this cocky or it was meant as a joke....either way very offensive.
As he says in the rap these guys already have 2 shows and both are super funny!
Really hope this wins!
Gosh you folks are hilarious. As evident by your large following, I am impress with the quality your team displays. Good luck this week. Hope we all see one another at top 15
From Team Maple U http://comedycoup.cbc.ca/mapleu
Did you want us to not like your video? I'm wondering. It seems like a lot of your votes have come by way of You Tube, which fair enough, but it would be nice to see more of what an episode could be about.
wasnt able to watch until the end. Boring.
Its just not funny.
This is my first time watching one of your vids, and it looks pretty funny. I did think that the penis joke was awkwardly put in there though.. *no pun intended!!
Best comment
I like that you guys are in this Coup. You're videos are usually one of the first I check out. I suspect that's probably the case for most people-- love or hate you.
That being said, this video is extremely calculated. I'm shocked at how easily people took the bait. I'm looking at your page and you (currently) have 7 pages worth of comments saying that this video didn't do a good job hyping your project. Well done, guys. If this week is about results then you're winning.
Holy crap you guys have a lot of followers. I am not going to trash your project because I think it is great you created a rap song for this assignment. So far you guys are the only ones to rap their hype. You worked hard on this video, power to you
I'll echo what a lot of people have said in these comments in terms of coming off too entitled in this video, but it does definitely have its merits. You need to have confidence in this industry, and I appreciated that you went all out and tried to make your mark with this rap. I'll say this: I'd rather watching something controversial than something boring. So while this week's video didn't do it for me, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what you do next. Good luck with the Top 15!
If it is all about this one guy, I am not into it... sorry. I couldn't tell if you were being serious or joking. Maybe a bit of both. GL!
The Rap is a bit dated but I still think there is potential for comedy. keep going.
this was pretty bad. I do not know if you trying to get rid of fans you may have or if this was all a big joke. I found it quite offensive and I do not think cbc would be looking for something like this and if they are I would not tune in.
i hope you guys were joking with this lame rap. But i can't really tell which is the scary part. You missed the mark on this weeks video not impressed. This will not get people interested.
I understand the music theme but this was just a little irritating to tell you the truth. I am not sure this will attract many viewers, but good luck.
Covered all bases for the hype portion of the competition. A little full of yourself when it comes to selling yourself! The earlier works were better and funnier.
Oh nooooooo you cannot seriously compare yourself to Empire Records. It really is coming off as conceited and kind of boring, the production is good and stuff but it's just another "hey this misfit band of weirdos works at [LOCATION] and has adventures".
There seems to be a theme in the comments and I agree. Each week a little weaker than the last. It looks like you maybe have lost interest or are having a adding the variety that you would need to carry this as a series.
You guys have a great group and support system, which begs to ask why you even need this competition in the first place.
Very funny!! You have shown a lot of variety. how cool would it be to have your guys play the music into and out of the commercials every week.
You clearly can make music videos Not sure your content is something that's going to hold an audience week after week ... It seems like a different spin of the same thing wk after wk
I have to say your first video was pretthy good. I think a music video was a good idea but as i said last time, i feel like your re using what has been made before. And maybe you look too much at yourself. I felt that the 1, 2 and 3 video were pretthy good. More space to the 2 other caracters maybe. But guys it is still pretty good. push it a little bit more, go somewhere else, less dick jokes...
I'm disappointed. You guys had a really strong start, but you've lost my attention. Maybe trying to hard? Relax and get back to your original idea. Good luck.
Always hard to tell from the short clip what your show would be about. Not sure that i still know looking for something I could relate to humour didn't always comes through. Again not sure what this was trying to show but i have to say I enjoyed the rap very creative. good Luck this week
It is my understanding that fans will decide the comedy coup competition and who is to move forward into the top 15 teams
Congratulations on making it to the Top 55 and good luck on making it to the Top 15!!
I love this. Very creative!
Let's see what's next
I'm saying this because I noticed other people saying it: Congrats making it to the top 55 and good luck moving forward.
I enjoyed the first 2 weeks efforts, but you lost me at week 3. I just checked back in to see how week 5 went and I did not really enjoy it. It looks like you are ahead in the competition if the numbers are anything to judge by, but I can"t really understand why.
We almost did a rap this week too! After watching yours we're very glad we didn't. Good job.
PS Caleb B. and Mike S. way to be original in your comments. Haha.
I'm just discovering your group now - I loved the shout-out dis to "Corner Gas." Very creative, it has me interested in checking out your other challenges and seeing what you're all about. For the record, I appreciate the commitment, creative effort and high production value. It matters.
Congratulations making it to the top 55 in comedycoup and good luck moving forward as they decide the top 15.
Congratulations making it to the top 55 in comedycoup and good luck moving forward as they decide the top 15.
Not my favourite, but good luck with the rest of the weeks!
I wasn't too impressed with this one. Pretty predictable. Think this has been done to death. You say you all ready have two shows. I guess that probably gives you a pretty big budget compared to some of the other groups. Congrats and good luck.
Hahahaha well done. Tight rap, funny lyrics, but also managed to jam a bunch of info in with the jokes.I feel like I actually learned a lot about the show and you guys, while also yuckin it up. Thank you kindly.
I liked the video, and the whole music video aspect which obviously works well with the concept of the show. And while I understand that the whole 'bragging' bit is sarcastic for the character, it still kind of turns the viewer off. Otherwise great effort!
Although I like the concept of this video and the production value was great (as you say it helps to have all that equipment at your fingertips), I didn't enjoy the "I'm better than you" aspect. Turned me off from wanting to watch more.
A shirt for one joke was great.
I'm reading a lot of comments that are turned off by the bragging. I thought it was funny and part of the character's voice. It worked for me because you're in an alley and, turns out, he has no place to sleep. There's something funny and sad about a rock star character who works at a music store and struggles to remind people that he has genitals and has sex.
I know you guys have taken flak for the constant large penis jokes. I think it's heroic that you're committed to making them. It's like that scene in Rocky when he keeps getting up.
great song - love the vids so far. Music plus comedy is tha bomb. you definitely have a strong style and vision which is sleek and appealing. Excited for you and excited for your show to grow! j.
Choose to watch your week 5 pitch because it was the most popular. The music video was a unique and engaging idea. I'm not sure it told me a lot about your show, but certainly created the "hype" it was intended to do. Good luck!
I know that being so cocky was part of the joke here, but since all the facts that you gloated about are true (multiple TV shows already on the air, at the top of the popularity pile here) it fell SO short. You come off as cocky and overconfident - unlikeable even. At week 1 you were one of my top picks, but now I'm not sure.
I really liked your video this week, good idea doing a music video. It also actually really provided a lot of information about yourselves and your show. Good luck!
I'm not really a fan, but I give credit when it is deserved and doing your video to music was a really great idea. I'm just not sure how I felt about some of the lyrics.
You guys seem dedicated and focused. You have the highest numbers which is going to get you far but because of that you need to be more humble than ever
You seem to have a lot of resources working in your favour. A little more humility and a little less bravado might serve you well. Not really a fan, sorry.
Wow. Well done boys! Well done. You guys are dope! Team Charlie & Yoni
This video made me want to go watch their episodes. Well Done.
I have watched this video 4 times. I'm definitely probably not your target audience, but you brought something original AGAIN, and it made me chuckle. I like the swagger-ness... I don't see any point in acting all meek at this stage in the game (Boxcar Dan V.). But, the other thing I'd note... where are the other characters? It seems they haven't shown face in a few weeks. I'd like to see more of them.
Good production value, good song, not surprised there are a few people who have trouble with the confidence. Honestly, I'm thinking that having scripts might be the most useful thing ... assuming they are good. Far to many of the other groups seem to have been short on looking past the pilot to think about how the show could actually support a full season, let alone more than that.
Why is it that the more I see of this, the more I dislike it? I truly feel the answer is, this is the only project that I'm not rooting for the team. The blond guy comes off a little too full of himself for me. You've been very successful, we get it. And yes, of course the whole point of this project was to tell the world how good your project is, but how come you're the only ones who managed to make it feel like you were bragging and not pitching?
I think I've watched this five times now
I agree with some of the others below. The rapping is a bit annoying and it is coming across quite conceited.
Great music video, love it, funny too, had me interested the whole time, It obvious why you guys are in the runnings every week, Cant wait to see more. Great HYPE, will be sure to tune in Tues, Nov 11. Good luck
I agree with Janet -where are the women? I guess you have a lot of guy friends. Sorry I don't really like rap and couldn't decide if you were trying to sell your show or something else. Good luck as I did like your first week entry. Give the women a voice too!
Great job. I am happy to support this project. Good luck making it to the next round. #HypeIt #ComedyCoupHype #BeHyperactive #100Characters
I like the set-up of the sell sheet too and the rap was interesting but ... where are the girls, the women, you know ... the female gender?
We have several women characters in the full pilot episode. They are all played by men but the characters are women. (That was a joke). Hopefully if we are able to make the pilot you will see what all our hilarious female friends can do!
Your sell sheet is visually interesting, which is great and sure to attract attention. Unfortunately, the zero effort put into your facebook event raises a red flag for me. I thought that after last week's sideways art situation, that you'd be more motivated to view the guidelines of the mission. I guess some stallions can't be tamed.
interesting spin on this weeks mission. I am surprised that I could actually understand everything you were saying good job. The video was a bit annoying though and couldn't tell if you were bragging or joking. Not very likeable.
Impressed by the amount of effort that went into this week's video!
I agree
A for effort. Glad you've had a lot of press in the past, don't really see why you'd get much more in the future. Keep it up!
I really liked the idea of doing a rap to get across, unique and different than most teams have done. Some of it was pretty funny I liked quite a few of the references however, I cannot tell whether all your jokes where you are bragging are out of humour and that is how you guys are in a joking sense or whether you really are that cocky so it leaves me feeling indifferent.
The video was just ok for me, although the whole rap thing was already done by the Campus Law guys for Week 2... so no points for originality. Should have used the time to hype the show more instead of telling us your background story, which was also supposed to be done in week 2. If that's what you were trying to do here i just didn't get it.
Creative... I'll give you that. Last time I needed a massage, which you kindly offered, this time I might need an Advil. Was just a bit much for my liking. I concede with Darcy R. that it was conceited and that that was probably exactly what you were going for. I understand that when you refresh the page that generally you guys have been near the top for popularity/trending, but if you actually want to know where you stand in the group of 55 with your rating of 7.73, you are 7th. Not bad.
Super enjoyed your earlier submissions but this one reaches too far, falls flat and is a bit annoying. Sorry dudes.
I think you guys are really funny but that last project didn't quite do it for me. I think it's a good music video clip but I didn't see the tv show behind it. Good montage but photos and images that we already saw from your project. Continue to innovate and good luck for the rest of the comedy coup.
I have to say that I did not enjoy the "original music", as they say. It took away from what you have done previously, and not sure I want to watch anymore. Sorry guys.
Nice combo of funny and fact to meet the mission and add some humour. I concede it was conceited, but that's kinda the point when you're looking for media coverage. Brag = copy. As a journalist, I don't get all the info I need out of the vid but it's enticing enough to pick up the phone.
KILLED IT!!!!!!!!!! I love the video! Super well done boys!
For all the haters, it's C-O-N-C-E-I-T-E-D. But for the record, you guys do come across as total douches.
good choice to do original music for your music themed project .
I really like this video!! Ryan Long can drop a dope rhyme. I am definitely feeling the Hype! Danny P? Where's Danny P?
Danny P was out of the country unfortunately! He'll be back next week. And by he I mean me!
Delivery was original, however I have to agree with some others, came across totally conceded.
Though you probably don't give a s**t about what anyone has to say anymore, as your heads seem to have grown larger than the door. - stick that in a rap and smoke it. B***h.
Oh, and I am a friend of the Longs. Make 'em proud! lol?!
I’m not so sure if I can support you, now that I know you’re the reason I can’t hear Stairway in music stores. Long live everything else, or whatever.
Nailed it. Loved it. Congrats on keeping the momentum rolling. #BeABuddyGuy
good job on the sell sheet and that's about it. The rap was pretty annoying, you came across extremely conceded and sorry but I almost don't want to watch this just for the shear fact of how cocky you were.
