What do you think of the latest smiling friends video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mssHhG-vGG8
I think the joke is getting old
>>151952155I think it got old a few months ago.
Millenial humor

>oh look its my OC/self insert that's not supposed to be there in the show!!!>are you laughing yet?
The joke is fucking beyond dead now man. The furthest I was willing to go was dolly screaming her head off because its a lot better and funnier than most of the realistic conversation bullshit thats in almost every episode but man this one just sucked. Just more shitty lore or whatever.
just like any ARG video series, as soon as it gains track, everyone wants to jump in and wants to gain the same fame except the joke starts to worn out
>>151952137sure these self insert joke channels are getting old, but what really makes this one fall flat is that it really relies on referential humor. Even if you want to argue that it actually lampshades references as humor it still just falls flat because lampshading isn't enough to make something funny or interesting.
>Dolly is being ignored...because they're getting paid $20 to do itYou know what I hardly care what the fuck happens in these videos anymore. This shit just isn't funny anymore, it's not clever and it's not cute. Dolly crashing out was a genuine surprise and actually well done, but this is just dull and uninspired.
I guess you can call this one an official bonus episode, something to satiate us before season 4. Yeah its 3 minutes, but its obvious they voiced this one, its not AI or anything. This one is straight on the nose.
>>151954152>Dolly is being ignored...because they're getting paid $20 to do itwait is that actually the reason?
>>151954620yeah2:06 in the video in the OP
>>151954834what the fuck, i wasn't expecting some deeplore metanarrative thing but that's still retarded
>>151952137If this is canon to the Dimpley saga, this really recontextualizes the faces that Pim makes in "Pim Wants Pizza" and "Clean Up The Filth". They suggest that while Pim did go forward with the blue critter's deal, he deeply regrets it. Pim is thinking to himself "Why am I doing this? I'm taking advantage of this woman. Worsening her already poor mental state. All for $20?"
>>151954152Was it ever funny? The whole joke with Dolly was that she was extremely awkward and out of place.
>>151955045The awkward way she tried using cringy humor to fit in had an interesting charm to it, and the way she fucking flattened the Allan penis joke into nothing was actually pretty funny. It was enough to get me invested in the videos, which made the relatively slow transition from "awkwardness as humor" to "awkwardness as loneliness" hit hard enough that I did genuinely feel bad for Dolly. But if this video is canon, if this stupid multi-channel thing between CATG, Dolly and this blue fucker is actually the intended storyline, then I have no goddamn reason to care anymore. Building up Dolly as this sad character that just wants to be acknowledged to the point of it actually causing her to have an emotional breakdown only to have the grand reveal be "lol yeah twenty bucks is twenty bucks" is fucking Rick and Morty tier writing, and it's not entertaining in the slightest.
>>151952137I only care about Dolly and AutisticGamer.
I doubt that this was all planned from the start. At most, this was just 3 separate channels. They noticed each other, and decided to reference each other in their videos.
>>151955187thisi thought dolly was cringe at first but she slowly grew on me for the same reasons as yoursturning it into misery porn just cheapens it all.
