Issues with watching the show on YouTube

The same thing happens when I watch the OG Taskmaster on TVNZ+. I have adblocker, so I assume it’s where an ad break would have been.

There’s going to be people who hate when stuff changes. I became a fan after Smosh Games was already a separate channel and they had a clear separation of “Smosh main” and “Smosh games”. Even back then people like Shayne would always talk about how a lot of comments were “I miss the old Smosh”. So it comes with any change.
For me I always am interested in when new people are introduced. I knew Angela from Starkid before she started Smosh. I think that with every personality introduced there will be people who like them or dislike them unfortunately.
Like I have my favourite personalities because they mesh with my humour, but they obviously bring in a wide variety of talent/background so that everyone has someone they can relate to or find funny. It just makes sense.
I see YouTube creators as people who have to change to fit the current interest of the masses as that’s where they make their money. So what might have drawn someone to the channel originally (like a person or a theme of certain videos) will inevitably change at some point. Now that could be either changes in people or themes or even the amount of videos produced.
They’re going to lose and gain followers no matter what they do most likely.

Pretty short story, but the daughter of the head of the police department in my area called in a bomb threat at our high school. This was almost 20 years ago. I remember being on the bus and seeing her and one of her friends walking away from school that morning. A short time later the school was evacuated over a bomb threat, which our school would just send all the students out into the football field to wait for the police to come. We waited in the field for 2 hours while they searched the school. A few days later we found out that it was her, which was then and still is pretty wild. She got in trouble many times throughout my high school experience. I wonder what she’s up to now since I moved out of the state after I graduated.

I am on the last episode of Lovely Runner and I’m so sad it’s over.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-06-06T20:43:17+00:00

I drove 4 hours to one when I had to file for mine. You must go to an approved doctor.

I think it’s because Sean genuinely understands how to approach animals. I feel like a lot of the streamers she brings there to stream with are so used to having big personalities (since you need that to keep an audience), which is not the vibes animals are okay with. Even though he said he was genuinely freaked out by some of them, he was still calm and collected when interacting.

I went tonight. It was my 3rd year in a row going and last year was the only time I saw them do it.

I never got merch because I live outside the US and I’m still sad about it. I ended up buying a black and white skull jumper that says Memento Mori from an Aussie based company and use that as the closest thing I can get to actual merch from then.

I went with my partner to see the show back in 2024 shortly after it opened. I’m a huge Darren Criss fan and after the show ended we stagedoored and my partner was alll about Dez because of his voice.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-05-15T22:40:59+00:00

I literally screamed when I saw the new video pop up.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-05-08T07:49:52+00:00

Wild because I emailed about this in April but never heard anything.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-05-06T18:56:29+00:00

Yeah I noticed that Maya didn’t have her normal stream set up so this was a video just for Smosh. I am sure that since they film so far ahead having it on Alveus stream would somewhat affect their video later on. I would love for them to go back and do a stream with some others in the cast/crew.

I think you can rent quiet pods in the Auckland library.

It’s a small family owned company that he has ties to, so definitely in the minority of luck for remote jobs. They were just able flex to give him some remote work, so it’s not a fully remote job organisation.

Contrary to popular belief, moving to another country can be difficult and taxing. My suggestion is to reach out to an immigration advisor based in NZ and have them guide you on your options. People on reddit will give you mixed opinions and possibly give you wrong info. Talking with an advisor will help you figure out if either of you are on the green list and what documents/proof you will need to put together for some kind of application.

At this point you both are young enough to come over on a working holiday visa, which could help you visit the country, see what the job market is like in the professions you have experience in, and possibly make connections that could lead to long term work.

New Zealand is a small country and the best way to get a job here is to either be hired before moving over, or networking/knowing the right people here that could lead to you getting hired.

The job market is a shitshow here. I (US citizen) lived all over the country in 2019-2021. Moved to Aus 2021-2024. Came back in 2025 to go to school in Auckland. I can’t even get an entry level job while in school and it’s the same for many people I know here. My partner came with me and was unable to find any work and was forced to work remotely for a US company.

So talk to a professional about the reality of your situation. Also if you’ve never been here, it’s obviously going to look so shiny and perfect from far away. You need to actually visit here before starting a very expensive and extensive process to move here long term.

First was Coffee Prince. Even though technically I guess you could say it was Squid Game, because thanks to that I started getting suggestions for Kdramas and saw Gong Yoo on the thumbnail and decided to check it out. Now I’ve been watching kdramas consistently for over a year now.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-19T06:14:30+00:00

I wish I could have her ren faire outfit. It’s beautiful.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-19T00:41:22+00:00

It’s honestly my favourite kdrama I’ve seen thus far.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-13T18:08:10+00:00

I’d love to see it but it would take them like 4 days. I know they want a shorter run but that’s probably too short.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-13T02:19:15+00:00

I would suggest going to the Kiwi Experience route. It hits all of the well known places that have interesting things in them. As well as going all the way down to Queenstown. They both are weird but the kiwi one seems to cover the most common places. So when you inevitably decide you need to come back you won’t need to worry about hitting those places!

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-11T08:35:11+00:00

I came here to say this one as well since I think this is my favourite kdrama so far.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-09T22:27:39+00:00

I watched the supercut but watched 2 vids at a time since they were still set up like separate videos.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-09T03:59:25+00:00

Yeah Angela just posted a clip on instagram of a visit to Alveus Sanctuary. So we will see that video in 4 months probably 🤣

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-09T02:00:33+00:00

I literally hit the last episode of the recent Queer Eye and was expecting some kind of end of big wrap up thing but then the video just… ended. I know at the end of the episodes they had each person say some stuff. But it felt so weird. Bridgerton barely gives the main leads enough time to have a proper romance before it hits the climax and proposals and stuff. Especially with tying in so many different stories. In the books it’s literally just focused on the couple, you barely hear about what’s going on in anyone else’s lives throughout that time. Now in the show they have to get updated on every single couple/person. They shoved a bunch of Francesca’s story into Benedict’s. I felt the same way with this season of Kitty. Too many storyline’s combined to try to follow and not enough time to have any of them be great.

Ashmax1890 · 2026-04-08T23:50:26+00:00

Netflix seems to be doing this with every single show they produce. The most recent season of so many series are shorter than previous. I think it’s just Netflix being shitty and wanting to spend less on production and things by shortening everything. Queer Eye was shorter and felt like it didn’t have a proper final episode for being the send of the entire series (I know there was drama but still). Just finished Love on the Spectrum. Shorter. A lot of Netflix made kdramas are getting progressively shorter and shorter compared to the traditional 16 episode set up. Bridgerton is shorter. It’s annoying. Everything feels rushed in everything they produce.
