I have quickly become a fan of Grumpcade, even though there are a few guests or playlists that I haven't enjoyed as much as others; but that's to be expected when there's a series anywhere, let alone the Grumps.
However there's one that well and truly takes the biscuit.
Pokemon (F)Art Academy!
Considering that the first episode Taking Credit started on the wrong foot and was a complete accident, I believe that this was truly a miracle for Barry, Ross, and us Lovelies!
The calm tone of Barry and Ross talking matched with the casual drawing of horrifyingly beautiful Pokemon, it's the perfect reason for your parents to allow GameGrumps to be playing whilst you're working! Take this blog, for example, I'm writing whilst listening to episode 15!
Also the art is a great turnout!



See? It's just wonderfully strange, plus we get to see Ross' talent more and Barry's surprising talent! Just look at that Charlie Brownichu!
My personal favorite is episode 7's Fur Coat furry drawing, you know it's strange but there's something about it that's rather endearing! That drawing alongside the part where Barry and Ross were more willing to just talk and critique each other just shows this episode really kicked off this style of commentary on Grumpcade.
Not to mention the fanart it inspired!


Whenever I see it I can't help but feel proud of our fanbase! The fact that people are able to draw Ross and Barry's creations just to span them further, alongside the inside joke of fuckin' Suzy taking all of Ross' credit.
I personally believe that this series is the only one that has made me truly feel part of the Lovely community, just for the fact that I related so much with the content to the point where I feel like I'm talking with the guys and on the couch with them, then I scroll down to the comments and they're pretty damn positive, and this series has actually inspired me to be creative again!
Barry and Ross, I'm glad all those things went wrong on the faithful day of 17th of July in 2015, otherwise I wouldn't feel part of the community at last.
If you haven't seen the Pokemon (F)Art Academy, I'll gift you with the first episode here:
