Yikes…. If this was the first, second, or even 10th episode of WLTV that I’d seen, I probably wouldn’t have come back for more. I understand where you’re going with the “get new people into vino” move, but I’d be more careful in the future so that the WLTV rep isn’t at stake.

QOTD: $110 bottle of Barolo. No.

Jake and Amir are ahead of their time. This wine show is a stretch for them as far as a setting is concerned so they shouldn?t be judged by it or the one other video that most of you have seen of them. People who watch wine shows should not attempt to be critics of comedy and anyone who does is a prick. Also if you?re judging me for writing this, you are a prick. I can almost guarantee that within 2 years both of these guys will be making more money doing their ?stupid comedy? than any of you and will be able to buy up all of your little expensive wines, dump them out and use them to urinate in. So keep talking trash but these guys have a huge following and it is growing everyday. Enjoy your wine tho, jerks.

I don’t think those two guys are changing the wine world…but still, fun show. A little goofiness never hurt anybody.

That Norton you guys drank is twice the price here in Québec (what a rip-off!)

QOTD: I usually try to stay under 50$ for a bottle of wine. The most expensive was probably a Château Laroque 2001, which cost around 55$. And no, I would not pay twice the price off someone who knows less than me about wine.

Cheers! Nice to have you back Gary!

I don’t think these guys are into wine or comedy.

QOTD; Ah, no.

jake and amir are acting, people. amir is not really an idiot. they are playing their characters. i am a huge jake and amir fan, but i didnt watch this whole thing. their characters dont work on this show. but at least i can say that instead of bashing the host of the show for being boring and not funny. obviously that is not what he is going for. its apples and oranges.

I love your show and I love Jake and Amir but I don’t think they work in your format. I love skittles and I love chili, but I don’t want to eat skittle-flavored chili.

I’ll be back tomorrow with bells on Gary, keep up the good work.

Worst 26 minutes and 16 seconds in WineLib TV history. I wish I could get the time back I wasted waiting for the show to get better.

Followup to some of the angry posters….I think these guys are pretty funny, and alot of the CH stuff is fucking hilarious….my favorite being internet party…it just didn’t work in this format. FWIW I thought Jancis Robinson(for those who aren’t in the know, a british masters of wine, and very respected critic) was awkward as hell too.

QOTD: I spent about $100 on a bottle of D. Dagueneau Pur Sang and I don’t think I’d buy it from you at half that price.

did anyone check these kids’ ID?

This was a HORRIBLE SHOW! Worst show in the history of WLTV

QOTD – 2003 Chateau Yquem, delicious!

Yo G, Where did Ya find those two future Rocket-Scientists??? 🙂

qotd: Ta date, Kistler – Kistler Vyd. Chardonnay 2006 (80 bones)
and Duuuuuuuuuh, NO….. 🙂

Booger-Eating Morons,

When I become Senator, people like you and that waste-of-flesh Hilton will be shot into space.

QotD – numerous large formats- prob. 1970 Borgogno Barolo 3L.

Sorry Gary, but this one was rough to watch.
I have no problem with guests that really are not into wines, (like the Rocketboom hostess about a year ago), but these guys brought nothing to the table.
Even the question of the day left me a wondering.
Be honest big guy……..
It was hard on you too. No?
I also want equal time. Maybe a picture of Rush Limbaugh?

I watched the first 30 seconds and read a few comments. That was way more than enough. Thanks to everyone who saved me the pain of watching these guys…Let’s move on.

This is the first episode that I had to quit watching. The guests were unfunny and lame.

I started to write a comment, but it became so long that I turned into a blog piece at: http://drinksareonme.net/2009/03/30/has-wine-library-tv-jumped-the-shark/

Hey come on guys, fair play they were not great the greatest guests by far, but im sure gary is the first to admit that without offending his guests. He held it together, i think we all saw his pain when he couldnt teach the guys something usefull. Knowone has a crystal ball and can tell whos going to be a great guest. Garys gave us some great shows and without bad there is no great. The glass is definetly half full here meaning theres more shows to come. lets here something positive ????
Plus if anyone does need cheering up after it please watch the basketball link with Amir, if his no interest in wine should be punished it definetly was that day. 🙂

Keep up the great work Gary.

Little shout out for your guys in England would be good.

Good job Gary at managing this train wreck…. You got skills.
My two lowest rated WLTV shows happen to be both college humor shows because the guests are disrespectful, annoying and simple not funny.
Jake was cool and respectful and gave an honest try. He approached the wine with a level of humility — cool. But damn! — Amir was just annoying and disrespectful in my belief to you, to wine and most important to the Vayniacs community.
I fought myself from turning the show off. Your BRAND Gary empowered me to sit through it.

I’m just impressed you didn’t punch the one to your left.

Though I’m no longer a part of the CKC contingent, I hope WLTV knows that doesn’t represent what the new wine drinking generation is all about.

That episode would have been better kept in the vault.

Not sure why dude thinks its cool to dress up like a tomato and wear a stupid looking hat.

flamewar. stop it.

the most expensive vino was a Dornfelder for about $3.50 (5?).

Not my gig, but I’ve never seen them before so I probably just don’t get it.

QOTD: Probably a couple bills for some Bordeaux. And, no.
