OK I missed the first thirty of the VGAs, but I'm sitting here on my couch now watching it.

The award presentations seem kinda cool, the skits... not so much.

They're showing random audience shots and Seth Green is there, tie and all. He so kicks ass.

I think the problem with the skits are, they're just not funny. You can't force this stuff. Maybe Spike needs to just concentrate on the awards. Perhaps they should cut it down to an hour and have it be more like the Oscars, a coupe of jokes from the emcee and that's all she wrote.

Hmm, show's back and they just introduced Yellow Card to present the studio of the year. These guys are idiots. Id-E-Ots.

OK, for the record I not only voted for Clover Studios, but I nominated them. They really should have won, nothing against Epic.

Cliffy looks so happy. I just heard him say "that things huge". Lol, he just shouted "What's up bitches". I think four people clapped. Bitches is right.

Rogan, he's even cracking himself up. Man, they need to get better writers, or actors, or something.

Showing the world premier of GRAW 2 now. That's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter for the three of you who've never played the game.

Hahahaha, El Paso, Texas. That's just perfect. Actually, it does sort of remind me of junior high school.

Now that's what I'm talking about. They just brought two of the guys from Reno 911. Let's see if they can do live.

They can. First, they're cussing like nobody's business. Ahhhahaha: They just said Fuck you pig. Oh, man they rock.

What the... awards round-up.

Hit the jump for more of my babbling.

Game Head commercial. What do you guys think of that show, it seems pretty respectable they've done some pretty impressive things this year.

I think Samuel L is actually changing clothes during every commercial break.

Oh hell no. Samuel L. Jackson pwned. Lol.

Hotness just walked onto th estage. She's got a name, but it's just been wiped clean from my brain.

Best Cast nominees coming up. And the winner is, as you all know, Family Guy. Holy Seth Green Batman. Nice, they have some of the cast up on stage, I mean besides Seth Green. Yes, he said Gigity, gigity goo.

Oh shit, Michael Irving is plaing Wii Golf. Lame, he threw it and broke the camera. La-Ame.

Tony Hawk just won an award. Wasn't he just a presenter.

Samuel L is introducing a Spike TV show now. This is starting to feel like a big circle jerk.

Holy... The King is in the audience.

AFI is on the stage performing. They should never be allowed to perform live again... never!

It sounds like the mixing is all screwed up, or maybe the singer always sounds that way Man, I feel old.

Some TNA Impact guy just threatened to kick the Gamehead guy's ass. Nice.

More Reno guys on stage now. Sorry, girl and guyish. They are awesome. I love them.

There seem to be an awful lot of commercials with this show, both during and around it. Zing!

OK, the VGA drinking game: Everytime Samuel L cusses take a drink.

SLJ in yet another outfit annnnnnd. waiting for it, waiting for it, waiting for it... and drink.

How in the hell did the Loco Roco song (my vote and nomination) not win the Best Song award. How? Frggin Yellow Card, I'm disgusted.

Wait, the Spike TV VGA award is a monkey? A Monkey. OK CliffyB, I want a picture like now.

Heroes hottie just took to the stage. She's blathering on about video game addiction and mocking young gamers knowledge of books. I bet she couldn't name three books by Hemingway.

Whats with all of the sorta off camera COS players. Very odd.

OK, some painful comedian is on stage now. She's actually getting booed. Not only is she insulting everyone, she's not even funny.

Wow, that was really, really bad.

Heroes guy took the stage: the Japanese guy who was recently nominated as one of the sexiest geeks around by Wired.

He's doing the best team sports nominees, that's a little tangential don't you think?

Hmm, he just busted out with a "Save the cheerleader, save the world." Thanks for the commercial buddy.

Superman is yapping about World of Warcraft now. He, apparently loves Blizzard. How very trendy.

They're showing the trailer for World of Warcraft Burning Crusade, But instead of just showing it the cameras keep cutting back to the live choir. We don't care about the people in robes singing god dammit, just show the trailer. Ahhh, my brain is going to explode.

Oh man, the finally got some good jokes. The Game of the Year nominees lead-up is hilarious.

Oblivion wins, despite all the people shouting Gears of War.

It just ended with things exploding and Samuel L cussing. DRINK!

OK, one post show wrap-up question and observation.

Was the Tenacious D performance worth sitting through the whole show?

I think the problem is that Spike TV is trying to make a show that is both attractive to gamers and non-gamers. Don't. There's plenty of gamers around to support the show, just shoot for appealing to them. Brian Crecente
