Some thoughts on The Uncanny Valley

So the 5th TGWTG anniversary ended and despite Suburban Knights and To Boldly Flee remaining my favorites it was an enjoyable ride. In detail:

• Dragonbored has the best production value, it's also pretty well written/acted/etc. for what it is... which is not original or groundbreaking, but at least fun.
• Dragged in is easily my favorite short in this anthology, despite a drastic drop in production value, thanks to the combination of my cat mania, fondness of B-Movies, and high pun tolerance. So if you miss any of these qualities, it might not be for you.
• The Reviewers ... This is a series pilot not a self-contained short, which is deeply disappointing. Yes. I didn't like it much... and the infuriating thing is that I could. It has an interesting setup, characters etc. but the format is not good for it, in my opinion.
• Internet Dating and Me I'm not really into Rom Coms but this managed to be funnier than I expected somehow (maybe I have a thing for British humor or had low expectations).
• The Dark Side of the Internet is one of the best "Don't be a jerk on the net!" / "The internet is a tool don't misuse it!" PSAs I ever saw. It's MADE OF ANVIL but Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped, I guess.
• Honorary mention: The Webmaster and the Meditation Guy! Didn't matter what I thought about the particular short, these two always made my day.
