DNC was amusing but it never quite seemed to "recapture the magic" from Cracked TV. Hopefully this means even better things are coming down the pipe.

Thanks for your help man. Worked like a charm. It's always pathetic when people pull copyright on a parody, and it's great to have a copy in case they find this one too.

Hey man, just contacting you about the video "Swaim: The 4 Best Worst Demo Reels on YouTube". I love Cracked TV and Does Not Compute (not to mention the rest of the site), and I'm really glad you saved this episode from whoever tried to have it taken down. I just wanted to know if there was any way I could download the video in case it's ever taken down from here as well.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

If I were you, I would just download Real Player. It is bundled with a neat little program that downloads any flash video. For instance, every time a flash video is presented on a website there will be a little gray box in the upper left corner that simply says "Download Now". And it will record it and place it in a file folder of your choosing.

Give it a shot. It's great for videos that you want to save for posterity.

It's actually a style; a kinetic editing style that adds energy to the delivery.

Monologuing for 8 minutes can be a killer. It's very hard to keep up energy and proper deliver for that time. Watching a monologue for that long can be especially brutal. You've probably never seen an 8 minute monologue in any movie or television show you've ever seen.

Speaking engagingly, by oneself, for extended periods of time is something that radio talk show hosts are often adept at. Politicians occasionally are. Professional speakers usually are. Even actors (film, not so much stage) can have a hard time not breaking character or flubbing a line or losing energy in an 8 minute scene. Youtube posters are usually not professionals in these fields. They have day jobs and do this as a hobby. They try to make it as entertaining as they can for you & play down their weak points.

It's not that they're incapable of memorizing an 8 minute rant (though I'm sure some are), but it takes a special person, and many years of experience, to be able to be engaging for that long.

This editing style also lets the performer assume multiple roles much more easily. It's not the case here, but if you watch, say, Michael Swaim on Cracked TV or this Ze Frank video on Scrabble, you're understand what I mean.>> ^xxovercastxx:

I had to look away to make it through this. Why can't anyone on YouTube read a prepared speech without having cuts every 2 second anymore?

Good to see them doing something on par with Cracked TV. Agents of Cracked was a disappointment, and Does Not Compute is a bit too fast and overproduced. But this series has promise.

Also, I have to point out that Forrest Gump was not a retard. He had an IQ of 75, 5 points above retardation. All perfectly kosher.

Goodness, I like cracked TV.
