MAJOR SPOILERS follow, obviously.
Our Twitter stream goes bananas while The Walking Dead airs. I keep Tweetdeck open to monitor and generally it scrolls too fast to read in real-time. Well, something wonderful happened on Sunday. Right as Rick’s group entered the hallway for the hostage exchange, the rapid-fire tweets stopped. Like dead cold. Our Twitter stream did not move. And then—BOOM—Dawn’s gun goes off and Twitter exploded. It was amazing to watch.
But not as amazing as seeing all the awesome reaction videos on Youtube. We love that people care enough about the show to not only watch it every week, but record themselves watching it. And we think this deserves some recognition, dammit! So let’s check out our favorites!
The F Bomb Award
Everything sounds better in a British accent but especially swearing. walking00dead‘s curse-laden reaction probably most closely resembles our Twitter stream right after.
The “Are You… Not Watchin’?” Award
I swear I have this exact exchange with my girlfriend every time I watch something. Questions upon questions until I’m just like, “Are we not watching the same thing?” Also, the way he can’t take his eyes off the screen while he answers her. It just cracks me up. Ronny has a dope ass throw blanket and drinks a 40 of Colt 45 while watching, so he’s A-Ok in our book. Sub to his channel, Make A Path Presents.
The Bleeding Heart Award
They say the eyes are the window to the soul. If so, Officer Friendly has big, giant, 20′ high bay windows. We just want to hug her.
The Most Shocked Award
I have never been this shocked or surprised in my entire life. SpacePip also wins the “Looks Most Like a Found Footage Horror Movie Award.”
Achievement in Seat Dancing
I’m not sure why SVdaPop turns into Neo dodging bullets but we all deal with our grief differently.
What other reaction vids have you guys seen that you love? Post ’em in the comments below! And again, a huge thanks to all of the viewers and fans that take the time and effort to make these videos!
Don’t forget to come TALK about the episode and rate it!
Read what Norman Reedus (Daryl) had to say about it.
I’ll NEVER understand how anybody can concentrate on recording themselves, do that Story Sync thing, Twitter, Facebook, texting… ANY of that while THE WALKING DEAD is on!! I want absolutely no chewing, no blinking, no coughing, no sneezing, no yawning, no heavy breathing, no sudden movements in the peripheral vision… NONE OF THAT UNTIL COMMERCIAL TIME!!!
Also, some–not all– of you video freaks should be commended for your bravery because you look like COMPLETE IDIOTS… but then, I guess that’s what you are going for. KUDOS!!
Im the same way
I am the idiot in the 2nd video down, wearing a yellow shirt. My channel on YouTube is called Make A Path Presents, a big focus of the videos I produce are discussion topics for the show & comic. I love the show and I absolutely love the comic but I also believe that simply watching or reading just isn’t enough. Through my videos I do what I can to the best of my abilities to help my viewers keep that flame of excitement for TWD burning, especially during the down time and the feedback I receive in the tells me it does help. In my eyes the longer fans stay active, excited and interested in the show the longer it will be on, if I can help just a tiny bit, I have no problem with that at all… even at the expense of looking like an idiot. 😉
Ronny, you were who I was thinking of when I said, “not all”. One thing about your videos is that you keep it real! What I mean by that is that you make a viewer feel like we’re right there in the room with you, having a conversation and/or looking on with you. For a reaction video, like the one above, it seems as if you ignore the camera… you are honed in more on TWD, thereby giving us the real thing. You’re not trying to make yourself the center of attention, but rather you call attention to the information that you’re presenting. You keep doing your thing & trust that no, you certainly don’t look like an idiot!
Nice throw, BTW!
Lol, I seriously missed that “not all” part… Lol but when i watch a movie I am a lot like how you said you are, no talking, chewing, breathing heavy or etc lol so I definitely feel you there. Thanks for the kind words though I really appreciate them!!
“Kill em. Fuck it.”
.
You are awesome. I want to come over and watch with you from now on.
TWD Fan Viewing Party… Ronny’s house! BYOB!!
LoL A TWD Viewing party like .BASTET said sounds good to me!
Yeah, guys. I’ve been a subscriber of Ronnie’s for some time now. In my opinion, he is the best Walking Dead focused Youtuber by a clear mile. You want insight? Look no further than Make A Path Presents.
Thanks Manicprime, I really appreciate your support on the channel and I am glad you enjoy the content!
Ronny you are the ONLY one that DOESN’T look like an idiot(sorry others) lol
I also love your video’s, so keep them coming! I’d never record or post my reaction to the TWD. Especially this episode, because I cried like a baby
Thank you for the support Thegirl! It means a lot to me! I have plenty of videos I am cranking out to fill the depressing break until February!
The last one, he was just trying to be funny for the camera. He looks like a complete idiot.
