Didn’t hate it… it’s just a different kind of humor than what we are all used to here on WLTV. But I did like the Other College Humor guys you had on before better.
I dodn’t thinkI’d buy any wine for twice the price I’ve paid before… unless of course it was “redonkulous”ly awesome and I couldn’t get it anywhere else… or it was table service at a club in Vegas….

Yeah I’ve been watching for over a year now and I’m really hoping never to see another college humor show again. I just want to take both of those guys and shove them into a wood-chipper with a huge grin on my face knowing that I just made the world a little bit better. I’m twenty one and I have a better perspective on life than they will ever have because they are too busy being superficial and “quirky.” May be somebody should force them to smoke their beloved pot, tie them down with their eyelids kept open, make them watch four hours of bill hicks stand up, and then hand them a gun at the end so that they can take care of it themselves.

I love Jake and Amir and I love that the lonely island’s album “incredibad” is in the background too.

I am a lurker and don’t usually leave a comment BUT-I hate to see the college guys getting slammed so hard. I didn’t really love the episode either but they are just kids trying to be funny and have a good time. The hate comments with violent tendencies are a little scary. I love WLTV and will continue watching, college kids or not. I guess the hardest part was trying to hear GV over the mumbling. Keep up the good work Gary-I’ll still be lurking! And by the way, you sure tapped into something as the comments are skyrocketing-your intention maybe?

Alright, after reading all these comments I find it hilarious of two groups of people. The people who are taking their dislike of Amir and Jake so far it’s just silly. Yeah, i didn’t think it was funny, and I understand the type of humore they try, just does nto work in this situation and overall not the kinda of humor I like, but hey, more power to them for finding a nitch, just hope they stay away from WLTV in the future. The other group is accusing everyone who didn’t like it of being stupid and not understanding what they are doing. Guess what, many people exactly understand what they are doing, like myself, but just don’t find it funny in any way. I like Gary trying to reach out to younger crowd, and a younger crowd that isn’t already into wine. That’s what he wants to do, reach out to new wine drinkers, just think there is a better way to do it. Hope the next episode is better, but one bad show does not ruin WLTV.

I feel for you GV, truly tough to watch. So I have a QOTD: What do you call a guy that is between Beavis and Butthead?? the back End…Oh Just a little humor on par with those guys.

Great episode. Jake and Amir are hilarious. I watch them all the time. And yes I’d buy all that you have from you Amir.

GV,

I couldn’t even watch to the end of this show, man. I know you meant well, but these guys are buffoons – wine is supposed to be fun, but I also watch this show to learn. The College Humor guys did nothing to help that process for me. Sorry, I give this show a pazzzzzzzz with 8 z’s.

I was distracted by the guests. GV must have been as well. I always pan down to preview the wines before I start the episode and was happy to see I had tried and enjoyed all three wines in the past. I really liked the two bottles of Chateau Pesquie that I picked up last fall. GV, give it another try without the distraction. I’m going to give it another try this weekend.

I found the posting from Amir very well written and heartfelt, and kinda felt bad…(except for where I called Jancis Robinson awkward, I still think that) Funny enough, this marks the most comments I’ve ever read.

Hey Gary,

I can’t wait to hear which comments you read on the next show. Should be good for a laugh.

Two of the biggest jerk offs I’ve ever seen in my life. Gary, I know you were thinking WTF am I doing with these two. The episode was unbearable. If this was any indication what our future college grads are like, we are in big trouble.

Sorry GV but this show BLEW monkey chunks, nothing you could have done better. I honestly was cringing at times and felt bad for you having to endure it. Amir is a douchebag and unwatchable. I get that he’s trying to be funny and wasn’t, but come on maybe take it a LITTLE more seriously!

Less of them and more of you makes for a better show!

The only people who didn’t find this or J&A funny were just pompous morons who don’t have a sense of humor. This was the first WLTV episode i’ve ever seen and i’ll be seeing a lot more of it thanks to seeing the link on J&A’s site!

It’s a shame some people don’t understand J&A’s characters and for those who hate on them……hundreds of thousands of viewers can’t be wrong!

Straight up.

I liked it. I got into winelibrary tv because of the first college humor episode so its fun to go and see another installment. I will agree that I was kind of hoping for them to take it a little more seriously but I had fun and thats all that counts. I would like to see a college humor and Bleep Bloop mesh were you guys taste wine than get a little drunk, THan review video games. that would be a fun episode!

Thanks Gary
Sam

…and I would most definitely buy wine from Amir at any price!!!

Your show is losing appeal, content rarely brings the thunder for the passionate wine peps. Maybe if you had filmed for 9 hours the college humor boys could have said something funny or maybe even entertaining. I am a college student and dont feel the need to act like a jackass.

Tip for Gary, best to follow this disappointing effort with a focused and informational show

I absolutely love Jake and Amir!!!…ridiculously awesome!!!

Ha! J&A rock, it’s a shame people who watch this regulary don’t understand J&A’s style and took this way too seriously

Collegehumor.com, Jake and Amir are the only reasons I followed the link here. Actually, found the website really interesting and was looking for a website just like this one. Nice.

I think that your next guests should be from the local kindergarten.
They wouldn’t be any less informed… or childish.
Really, who cares what a couple of non-wine drinkers who are still
trying to figure out what they want to do when they grow up think?

Thoise 2 smoke way to much weed its obvious…I think they try to hard to be funny and do a poor job of it…Hopefully thats the last we see of them on your show…No thunder was brought in that episode….Gary your still the man though…

For your information everybody. The Jake and Amir you just saw were both characters, not the people they really are, so calm down.
