Update for Replacement Poll Shows

Hey everyone

As most of you know the Polls for The Monday and Friday slots have been won, with Brooklyn Nine-Nine and The Promised Neverland winning. However, with coming back to the studio and trying to resume a normal workflow, we haven't been able to film the new show reactions quite yet. 

So as far as the plan for when they start, we will be working hard to have two reactions to The Promised Neverland (One YouTube release and one here on Early Access) this coming Friday. Brooklyn Nine-Nine will be starting next week on Monday with the same drop format.

Thanks for your patience and understanding in this strange time as we play catch-up. Over the coming weeks we plan to get more normal content rolling again, Such as Movie Reactions/Commentaries, Mailbag, and more. We wouldn't be able to do any of this without our Patrons, whose financial support helps us offer free YouTube content worldwide for anyone who feels the need to take up their time with our Shenanigans.

Hope you are as excited as us for the new shows coming this and next week. Remember, new summer shows we choose for ourselves will also be popping up soon too!

B99 is a great show, but it's terrible for a reaction series, especially in the style that Blind Wave is known for. Theorizing, discussions, dissection...how can they do that with a show that is dedicated to making you laugh each episode without really advancing any semblance of plot or developing characters? Good series, just not reaction worthy.

Josiah Lee

It'll be a while. B99 has 7 seasons and a ton of episodes each, and it's still going. I guess the best we can hope for is when another show finishes and they have a poll to replace that.

Josiah Lee

Can't say that I'm not bummed out that Expanse didn't win, but oh well...I'll wait until the next poll. One day we'll get them to react to it. One day.

Josiah Lee

B99 is a funny show. I enjoy it a lot. But is a terrible choice for a reaction series. There's no long-form story to discuss or wonder about and the episode count is... not small. It will be wasting a spot for years. And again, I really like the show. It's funny and fun to watch. But it is very much not one made for good reactions. Hopefully there will be another spot opened sooner than later and a show like The Expanse (as an example), which is an ideal reaction show, or something similar can finally win. I feel confident they would really love it. Oh well...

Nine- Nine is the best, in terms of comedy. With substance not entirely but it’s not bad either but I was also surprised that it won, but I’m happy cuz it’s really really funny. As for TPN I think these guys are gonna like it, it’s one of the first new aged anime series that I like next to mob psycho 100 I think the blind wave guys are gonna like both jobs

I'm suggesting the b99 fans flooded the poll with multiple votes

Thanks for the detailed explanation

Izzet Saygili

Couldn't think of a better place to ask this: How do you suggest shows for the crew? Or rather, how is it decided, what goes into a poll?

Izzet Saygili

I’m happy for TPN but don’t understand how Brooklyn Nine Nine won lol Anyway doesn’t matter American humour way different to UK. It’s decent show but saying it’s the best comedy baffles me.

DAki

Lots of salty complainers in here lol

I just checked and there are 143 episodes of b99. That's nearly 3 years wasted on a show that is not suited for reactions. Can we see the results? Until we do, I really don't understand how that show could have won.

The Expanse is one of the best shows on television right now and you guys are wasting your and our time with worthless common denominator sitcoms. The most frustrating part is that I know every single person would enjoy it, especially other blind wave subscribers that haven't watched it yet.

A L

I was really hoping Better call saul would win. this would be the perfect time to start this great show and catch the last season next year. But since 99 won, now I have hope that one day we will see community

I never thought a sitcom would win...but 99 is AWESOME!!! also this made me believe we are one step closer to Community one day. Hope the videos do well.

Hao

Give the anime a chance man. You might like this one after the first episode...

Jordan Feeg

Ugh lame a sitcom show that will bring no interesting discussions or theories, and ANOTHER anime? I feel like I'm in the minority but I'm disappointed...

Brandon Brenlla

Damn...no Gravity Falls...

Community would've been a far far better show for them as far as 30 minute sitcoms go.

Carlos

Looking forward to The Promised Neverland, especially since it gives me an excuse to finally sit down and watch it. Brooklyn 99 is an odd one though. I think it's funny but as a reaction series? Meh. I'll be skipping those.

Carlos

You are not alone my friend.

Paul Richardson

I can't believe the Expanse lost again, I have literally voted for it every time. I can't believe they are going to react to Brooklyn 99 instead. While Brooklyn 99 is an entertaining show, it brings nothing of note to the reaction side of things. There is no real conjecture or theories that can be developed about it, there are no interesting perspectives to be brought about by watching it, there is functionally very little that a reaction can add to the material itself. I feel like this will be another Good Omens reaction, in which there is a fun show and they laugh and make comments, but where there is very little to be gained in regards to the discourse it provokes or the perspectives they have on the material. I feel they will either find episodes fumy or less funny depending on the episode and will struggle to find anything more meaningful to say about the material. This is quite disappointing. It just feels so disheartening when they are given material that most likely does not provoke interesting discussions. I don't know how much longer I can justify being a patron, it seems my interests fall outside the interests of the majority of patrons and thus my voice will never be heard no matter how long I remain a part of this community. I don't know why I am writing this, I just feel so let down every poll and feel more alone, and I am certain that people will give me hate over this post I just needed some place to express my despondency.

Yeh man, it’s been a struggle for me for awhile now. I love these guys so much, I’ve been a Patreon for 4 years or so, and I have stayed out of loyalty for quite awhile now. But it just seems like it’s becoming an anime channel now, which is fair enough it’s their channel it just isn’t for me I’m afraid,

Paul Richardson

So does this mean TPN will have episode 1 and 2 on here?

Davon Thomas

TPN is too dark for me, but B99 is hilarious.

WhateverIFeelLike

Hope you'll one day do Vampire Diaries

Thomas Newell

TPN WON!

cassherms

I have not seen these two shows before. I just started the anime called parasyte, really good show so far. I think I will watch the promised Neverland next with you guys.

Chase Gardner

Looking forward to rewatching Brooklyn Nine-Nine with you guys!

ScarlettMi

I love them both ^_^ and please be safe going back to the workspace. Can't wait for it all Woot Woot.

Dylan S.

I just watched TPN for the first time two weeks ago and even though I don't really read any manga series, it's the first one I started because I loved the concept and world building so much. Hope they enjoy it as much as I did, so good!

RationallySassy

NINE NINE! So excited :D

Anxious Em

Oof, a chance of 2 episodes of TPN this Friday. My body is more than ready!! No problem if it does not happen, appreciate your hard work as always.

Omar

R.I.P. The Expanse :( I fear we may never get the reaction to it. I thought it was for sure going to win from the overwhelming comments on YouTube but I guess that didn't translate into patrons.

DaftBasterd

I really hope The Last Kingdom will be an option at some point, it would be interesting to see you react to it since you've watched Vikings :)

Sofia

Will B99 be the first sitcom comedy reaction series by the crew?

Atharva Bapat

Hmm

Gavin Hardiman

You are welcome guys

Garik

Brrmaster
