Just go to a real college, it would be funny to see some random folks in a dorm drinking wine … haha tailgate next football season or something and see what they are drinking…

Kinda like watching a car crash! Had to watch it unfold. Amir: perhaps a thunder candyshow?

I get this episode, this is not the regular show guys. It was crazy and fun…AMM

Gary – Please don’t do that again.

I’m one of the few who watched Gary BECAUSE of the College Humour guys(and Sarah). I’m not a huge wine fan as I am allergic to the sulfites. I think Gary and the boys did a great job playing off each other. It was a lovely video and definitely funny if you know and love Jake and Amir. I’m still in shock to see a video over 5 minutes with these two in it. I mean 26 minutes?! Amazing.

Gary! How lucky are you to have actually been in the College Humour office. I heard Sarah and Pat laughing in the background and I now envy you.
This has actually really got me interested and I can’t wait to see the next video. Thanks

This was a very funny episode. Although they knew nothing of wine they were good sports and appeared willing to learn. If you win them and their followers now you really will be changing the wine world and introducing a new audience to drinking it. You took a chance and stretched the boundary – good job Gary!

QOTD: I bought my father a bottle of Chateau Margaux and no I wouldn’t buy it from you Amir … I am afraid of how you would describe the wine to me.

For those who don’t know Jake and Amir, their normal skits are much better than this. I think it’s obviously awkward for both parties since neither are really in their normal situations. It did seem a little forced on J&A’s part but they did the best they could. Give them a chance and check out their website to see what they can really do.

If you can get past the humor you were expecting from this episode, it offered something more.

These two may have been the most unknowledgable wine guests ever on The Thunder Show?. And that’s what alot of us are like – wine neophytes. We’re watching Gary say “This wine has a cassis thing going on, with hints of soured black current and pencil shavings…” It can all be a little intimidating. Jake & Amir ? intimidating! And if you’re trying to spread the gospel of wine, that’s a good thing!

Gary – FYI college students drink $3-7 bottles of wine ($15 is splurging). You should have tried Smoking Loon Shiraz, Relax Dornfeder or Red Bicyclette wine. OR made it even more college and brought in some Franzia Red Blush.

Great Show.

I’m sorry I am not a wine snob. I still like the same stuff I liked when I was in my early 20’s. It’s great to see Gary Market wine for the college set. I wish he was around 40 years ago. I am a fan. And as much as this was a weak show. It was a great show.

This is too painful to watch. Stick with wine and not unfunny kids who think they are hilarious.

this one was funny because the guy with the glasses has a naturally funny way about him (unlike the other 3 college humor people youve had on so far). gary seemed genuinely irritated this episode which was also funny.

WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE!

That is my name for this episode. Gary, these guys may be very good at what they do for their audience, but they rely on heavy editing and pre-production. They obviously cannot wing it like you do every day all the time.

Oh my gosh. I’ve seen every show, and they can’t all be top 10 or even top 100, but this is definitely BOTTOM 5 material.

Run, do not walk, in the other direction!

Still love you, you know I do!

2006 Chateau Pesquie Les Terrasses, I met the winemaker from Chateau Pesquie super nice guy

qotd: a french burg, and no hah

QOTD: Just got back from vacation to see this? Anyway, most expensive wine probably was Opus One or Rubicon–they were already too expensive in the first place.

Un-funny. Painful to watch. Keep reaching out to new people Gary, but do a little research first. These guys are total duds. Can’t fathom the hype about them. Is this what college kids admire? Woe is me. Still love you tho.

Great YouTube Gary would want you to watch it

After all the bad reviews on this show, I had to finally watch it and the show ran long and was tedious. Gary..continue to take risks because it keeps things fresh. This could have easily been a really great show but they obviously can’t improv and that is your strength.

Sometimes I’ve wished I could go back and revist my college years, but now I realize I’d have to deal with whiny, self-absorbed, unfunny dolts like this.

Forget paying for wine. 100% apple juice. yeast. and a week or two is all i need.

Question for Gary: Is it hard to do a show with these stuck up assholes sucking your dick all the time? Obviously you used Jake & Amir for a reason, and they did what they normally do on their show. As someone who would never look at this site, I actually enjoyed learning about wine tonight.

Sorry Gary not a fan of this one. I like Jake and Amir doing the CH stuff, I really like the WL episodes with guests, and especially the guests from outside the wine trade, but it helps a lot if they have some level of interest in wine, which clearly neither one of them did. Throwing out wine questions to them that seem like they’re asked solely to trip them up. The last CH episode was good, but these two, I just got the feeling they were there because they had to be for some reason.

QOTD: 2003 Cheval Blanc, and no I wouldn’t pay double (or even half) to Amir for it.

OK. SO… Jake and Amir… awesome, hilarious. On the ball here, and always. I love them. Gary, too intense. I don’t watch your little wine show normally. Seriously, though?… A wine show for college kids and you pick $12 bottles? I just bought a 1.5L for $10 and I’ve been out of college for 5 years now… so maybe next time you have guest stars… think about the demographic.

To quote the episode “All and all, a very disappointing episode”… yep, nuf said – these guests, like fish after 3 days, stink.

Gary,

Based on this episode, I’m guessing that you’re sick and tired of doing the show.

These two are about as funny as a compound fracture.

Jake – by far the more likable of the two – will be driving a UPS truck by age 30.

Amir – the dolt who thought he won half a mil – will be bald by age 35 and will take his own life by age 40.

Oh please, oh please, oh please!

Regards,

Chevy Chase
