There is no chemistry. I can deal with Alex because he is on Diggnation. The other two bring nothing. I feel like they were brought in so Alex could have a review show. The show itself is very dry. All the hosts claim to be with the geek or dork crowd, whatever you call it, but they have no idea most of time of what they are talking about. I only watch the show to gain an uneducated perspective. I apologize for having to post this but seriously, these guys make more than I do to tell me about movies and video games and such. There should be a stronger effort made on entertainment and also the reviews.

You're kidding right? Dan knows nothing about movies? Jeff knows nothing about video games? You lie when you say you watch the show!

If anything, I'd say they hold back a lot of the time so as not to alienate a vast portion of their audience. For example in Comics, I know Dan and especially Jeff could go on and on about the books they read and love. And both have very different taste and could cover a huge spectrum.
I just don't get why people feel the need to troll so badly.

Oh, uh, I mean... the dryness you might experience is due to the fact that the guys are settled into the show after two years and the only chance they get to experiment lately is when they
do special segments like the inspiring geocache segment or when they do live shows.
Dan is a professional director, not Uwe Bowl. Jeff has been playing video games longer than I, and that is scary. There is arguably more chemistry between the three of them than between Alex and Kevin.
Side Note: did anybody at Comic Con notice how much of a dick Alex seemed to be to Dan at the panel? I was kinda shocked, but they all looked tired, so I guess it's understandable?

Actually I think that this one of those forum-bot thingy's that creates a new account and using a template, basically posts "I think (insert forum subject) is boring because (insert random reason)". We seem to get them from time to time.

If you feel like you have to apologize for posting, you shouldn't make the post in the first place.

Alex seems to interject a lot these days... i've noticed it around this years E3 when even the others seemed to get annoyed, but it settled down quickly..
it also seems like they are more relaxed about the show.. last episode they dropped some F bombs in the end so maybe they are talking to each other in the show like they talk in real life?
