As a fan of Avidan and Hanson's past and present work, I was looking forward to Good Game as a potentially high-budget extension of their comedic endeavors, with a promising Dan Harmon co-sign.
The end result however, is a rushed and poorly-written commentary on the e-sports culture thriving on sites like YouTube and Twitch. The majority of the characters, aside from Avidan and Payton's characters, are annoying caricatures of gaming culture or poorly-acted. The actual gaming portion of the show is pretty unenjoyable to watch, leaving the rest of the show filled with sitcom-level hurdles for the characters to overcome and provide meager progression. Give it a watch if you want to support Dan and Arin, but know their input on the show is minimal at best.
