Abridged Episodes: Funny, Funny


Have you ever heard of an abridged series? An abridged series is when someone takes a show that many people like, edit each episode to fit within 4-10 minutes, and plays voiceovers, usually by themselves. They usually crack jokes about the series itself, and bring up a lot of gaming culture and media refences up, and hilarity ensues. My favorite ones in this exact order are the Yugioh, Naruto, and Avatar abridged series. If you are ever on Youtube, go on an type in these names, and make sure to type "episode 1" at the end to ensure that you watch the first episode. The great thing is, you don't have to necesarily have to know about the show, since they hint to it throughout the series, but it's just you'll get more of the jokes if you do. The Yugioh ones have about 30 episodes plus a movie and a few spinoffs, the Naruto ones have about 23 episodes with funny commentary side-episodes, and the Avatar ones has 6 or 7. These are extremely funny, at least for me it is, and I recommend them to anyone who needs a laugh. Who knows? I might expand on them more on future posts.
