"
In this show's early days, Epic Fu used to be called Jet Set Show.
Is that what you're thinking of?

Today is the first Epic Fu I have seen and I was impressed.
Good information and fun.
Will this show ever be live?

Alright I gave it a second shot and this is my opinion.
Pros -
The show and it's content
Charismatic host
Cons -
I still can't get used to the editing
in my opinion too many ads for a 15 minute show.

"First, I'd like to say I don't know a damn thing about video editing. Now, keep that in the back of your head for a sec...
Whats up with the whacky editing of the show? It seems like it was all pieced together as if she said a ton of things out of sequence and then all mashed together with a huge ZOOM!
As I said, I don't know a damn thing about video editing. HOWEVER, the fact that I know nothing and even noticed this is a red flag. If a person that knows nothing nor has an interest in editing has a complaint about how it was edited- you should listen.
Other then that, nice work! Welcome to Rev3. :)"
That's what I refer to as "MTV editing" ... its quick, flashy in-your-face editing... depending on who you ask, some find it annoying as fuck while others think it's cool.

Yes! I love me some Zadi!
Zadi and Steve are some of my favorite people in this crazy internet world, and my IRL friends too. I first met Zadi during Vlog Deathmatch!
Glad to see you on Rev3! Hooray!

Where the hell did this come from? Probably one of the best shows I've seen on Revision3. Now there are 4 must watch shows on this network. TRS, Diggnation, Tekzilla, and Epic Fu. (OK...between us...make it 5 with Scam School). Keep up the amazing work!!

I too have never watched this show before, but I like it, and I'll definitely be tuning in for new episodes. The editing style is a little jarring, but at least it's something different. Gives it a different flavor than other Revision3 shows, and we could always use some variety.
