  • Did he say smoke?

  • I got my dad to start watching ANTC with me back in '07 and he still watches it with me to this day. He and I game together when I'm not working or at school and we tend to just fill our weekends with endless gaming. With that being said, we both love watching ANTC. You, Jon, you and Ch!3f have taught my 51 year-old dad, how to troll. If he's getting pissed off and kills someone who's been giving him difficulties in a match, he teabags said enemy whilst quoting, "lolololololol." Be proud, I am!

  • I got my dad to start watching ANTC with mr back in '07 and he still watches it to this day, with that being said, he's 51! What's even better is that you, Jon, you and you alone have taught my father to be troll. We'll be playing CoD or something together and he teabags defeated enemies whilst quoting, "lololololololol." P.S.- My dad is a very cynical asshole and loves your videos either as much, or more than I do, so, yeah... Love you, man. P.P.S- No homo

  • Jon i can only give you one thing..... Thank you... :') Or spank you as chief would say

  • Now that he's officially done with the series, I say he deserves a really long break. At first I kept saying to myself HURRY THE F*** UP JOHN! But now that I see the work that he does to make just one video I'm really mad at myself. Sorry for rushing you John...

  • Hey John don't beat yourself up for not liking your own videos. THEY'RE HILARIOUS MAN!!! Ur doin an awesome job man. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLILOLOLOLOLOLO­LOLOLOLOLILLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!! :3

  • You should have people online make the maps for you

  • Your shit's awesome Jon. I really wished it was more famous. You deserve it.

  • Damn dude I give you credit you work hard on this and people always bitch at you for being slow. F them you do a great job and it was interesting to see how you work. Keep up the good work and good luck to you.

  • 27 people should die in a fire

  • Wallace and Grommit ftw

  • People complaining about slow releases can DIAF.

  • It's amazing how much effort Jon puts into these episodes. I'm very grateful for all that he has done.

  • 6:00 I feel your pain -_-

  • UR DA FCKING BOMB JON DONT EVER QUIT PL0XXXXXXX

  • LOL at the sniper scene in forge!

  • Are you a glass half empty guy?

  • Good work johno u r awesome

  • Good work johno u do such a good job to keep us pleased end entertained

  • Loved this behind the scenes look Jon. Huge respect as always. Hopefully you start to like making videos more, since you constantly seem to improve. Seems like making the deadlines is what's bugging you. Hope you enjoy all your success and it's paying off well for you.

  • It just proves how much work goes into the show I dont understand how some impatient people after watching this still say Jon doesnt care anymore about Arby n The Chief

  • Lol remember reech arbiter

  • Yup thats where the legacy began, master chief sucks at halo 3 ahh.. <3

  • having found that you are finding it hard makingthe right maps needed for your shoots, i'll happily help in any way that i can to forge you some sets, if your intrested then my gamertag is Willy The Weird, send me a message and i'll get on it as soon as possible. keep up the good work and i love the show, you should give yourself more credit then you do.

  • Comment removed

  • I indeed found it insightful. This gave me a very good view of what your work requires of you. Thank you for your dedication and your hard work.

  • I hope this will show all those assholes that complain about Jon not releasing a new episode every 5 fucking minutes just how hard he works. I would've given up YEARS ago if I had to work that schedule, but Jon keeps going, he does it to entertain YOU. So the next time you want to be bitch and moan just remember how fucking hard he works.

  • Jon plays world of warcraft lol

  • He has steam

  • You are genius man!

  • 6:00-7:05

    Oh god, Jon, I HATE when it does that, HATE it!

    And I loved how you described the "depressed stage" but then said that how millions of people appreciate your work. And we certainly do my friend. =)

  • yea, forge can piss alot of people off

  • Jon, U R BAWZ, BAWZ BAWZ BAWZ BAWZ BAWZ

  • Keep up that awesome, spectacular film you call Arby 'n' The Chief

  • I think you need a roommate. Also that you should be proud over your work, its amazing even if it isn't perfect!

  • sound like Jon needs some weed

  • Jon. Thanks for posting this. You made me realize how much work is put into machinima. And to be acting alone is such an accomplishment! You need to pat yourself on the back. You release an episode every week! My friend told me one thing that I won't forget. Don't think about the negative, but think about the positive side. Your not the only one that makes mistakes. Everyone does. Don't be depressed and have a chance to be happy. Hell, take a vacation if you have a chance. I'm supporting you!

  • My dinky network connection actually would like to thank you for releasing in standard def.

    Also, after working with uncooperative and no-show actors for YEARS, I can totally relate to why you do all the puppeteering yourself.

  • @Brittanyevansinglee yeah i saw the real episode i loved to he real one XD

  • You must love your work seeing as you manage to keep making it,I hope you're getting paid big time for your efforts. Fan appreciation is great but I would rather see you in a mansion, by your stain glass window smoking $100 dollar bills :P

  • jon u've done some amazing work here. u took the seemingly impossible and with ur story writing and drama creating talents, made it into the single greatest web series of all time. coming from a true fan, take a break dude, go to japan or something i dunno. we'll survive a few weeks without arby n the chief (barely) sounds like u need some time off :)

  • dude, you sound depressed, go see a doctor.

    Big fan though.

  • Jon u work hard for us and I thank u for that :) keep up the work Jon.

  • 6:30 lol

  • O HAI

  • This show is like Red vs. Blue (not literally). It began as a show making fun of popular culture and events, then turned into a more plot driven awesome, spectacular storyline. This truly is awesome (could use more humor though). I made this comment only because other people are making long comments complimenting the show.

  • Listen I know people have said this a thousand times, but no one can enjoy their own work Jon. I still remember watching "Master Chief sucks at Halo" and laughing manicily at it as a 12-year old, and to this day I remeber it as being the beginning of one of the best machinima series to date. You made Machininma, not only this channel and its relative channels but Machinima in general what it is today. Fuck the trolls and haters you sir deserve a awa- Fuck it, a SERIES of awards. You've earned it

  • no madder what Arby 'N' The Chief will always be awesome to me XD i also laughed at the part in this behind the scenes because Jon couldn't put up the sniper XD you rock Jon XD

  • @CheetarTheCheetah Lol my fave bit was The Sh*t List

  • is it possible to get sam and mike as voices now?

  • killz the magic D; BUT DAMN U ROCK ph33r

  • 6:00 to 7:05 made me laugh. Is that a good thing?

  • 6:00 to 7:05 Epic

  • 35% of comments are people greatly praising Jon and complain that he doesn't get enough rest and about the haters. 35% of comments are people complaining that the new episodes aren't good as the old episodes. 15% are spoilers. 15% are off topic or are thumbs up whores. Yep. That seems about right.

  • So, you can't look at your work because you criticize it too much and just see it as a bunch of pieces glues together? You're telling me you're not able to appreciate the only series on youtube that made me laugh to the point of pissing myself and shed tears? Dafuk man! Someone that understood half of what you said in this video must make you an arby 'n the chief homemade for you to enjoy!

  • Jon, dont you have any trustworthy close friends that could help with props or the forge :P

  • @Azaxx100 He has no friends. :'(

  • Jon,

    Not even 480p? It really seems like a shame to use a great camera like that and export low-quality video.

  • 6:30 almost expected to hear the Arbiter start complaining about a 90 degree snapping feature

  • what is that thing at 7:13

  • 1:32 ftw

  • i had no fucking idea it took this much to make a single episode. I'm an impatient kid so waiting for an episode sucks but when a new one does come out it's well worth the wait! i personally don't have a favorite t.v. show, but i do have a favorite series...can you guess what it is? fuckin arby n the chief! best episode in my opinion is "The Wedding." Been my favorite episode since it came out a couple YEARS ago. anyways, thank you so fucking much for making me laugh so much. love the series.

  • I really agree with what everyones saying, jon you need to do more than pat yourself on the back, you've created a legacy with arby n the chief, and master chief sucks at halo. You made machinima what it is today, I'll always remember arby n the chief as the first and best youtube series I've watched, with such a limited budget you've created some amazing storylines, AND amazing humour, the drama is intense, it keeps you guessing throughout and master chief and arby make a hilarious duo.Congrats

  • @DaDangerousDaffodil "You've made machinma what is is today" now come on, I love this series but even i don't think you should give him that much credit

  • @DaDangerousDaffodil

    it is entertaining, but if you find any drama in this than you're a fucking crazy idiot. xD

  • Who the fuck makes your amazing music?! :D

  • This is the best show on youtube, ever DON'T stop making Arby 'n' The Chief, you're a true inspiration source for us who like making movies!

  • Jon, I'd say you shouldn't be so hard on yourself, but I think you being so hard on yourself so much is what makes the show good. You have really high standards for your final product and, while you may feel like shit while doing it, or even after finishing, it's worth while for every single one of us who watches is. Excellent work, your pessimism on some things about the show, your perfectionism, and you being so hard on yourself shows me a great amount of selflessness. I love the show, really.

  • There's a lot of Jon in the Arbiter as far as that cycle of being a downer is concerned. I dunno why Jon is so down on his work, NOTHING ever looks good when in production... and yeah even the end product isn't all that what you wanted it to be I can imagine, but what Jon has going is a rare beautiful series of episodes that, speaking for myself, I've been hooked on like crack for the past few days since watching this series. Keep up the great work, stop downing yourself as well :-)

  • You're videos are amazing man. I love your series when it came out years ago. I can almost relate to how much of a pain it is to put every aspec of your creation together. I only do a few things on Youtube, but all the things you do plus your personal life, that has to be hectic man. However, the only thing that should matter to you is that you are content with what you do and what you have accomplished. I still enjoy the show and looking forward to your future projects for Machinima.

  • Jon, you do this machinima single-handedly, the entire process of editing, writing, and filming, etc, and still upload quality work that rivals Roosterteeth's, who have an entire company at their disposal. Arby 'n' the Chief is hilarious and extremely entertaining. (Ok, maybe the swearing is a little over the top, but that's part of the charm!) Six seasons of quality work is more then most so-called "legit" TV shows ever accomplish, so know that we always look forward to Arby 'n' the Chief.

  • John, don't apologize to us. Your show is amazingly hilarious, and well done, up there with the greats of machinima and gaming videos. It's a better job than most of us can do, and the resolution. More than 90% of the show lies in the voices anyway (particularly the synthetic ones). Keep it up please

  • 6:36 jesus fucking christ lol

    i knew jon was not going to stand the sniper rifle up because it was on the ground in the episode lawl

  • Ok jon, from one artist to another, get over it friend. You are your own worst critic and that will never change. Think about this: the fact your that hard on yourself shows you know what your doing. No artist who is worth a damn looks at their own creations and goes "this is awesome man! nothing is wrong" and it turns out to be a stick figure. You do what you do well, just relax a bit on the stress that comes with it and it will not deplete that much energy. Believe me, you are doing well.

  • Dam Jon you've got quite a few consoles.

  • I dont notice any mistakes and this is the first machinima i ever watched so this my favorite

  • lol when i first heard his voice all that ran threw my mind was "TRENNNNNNT" but then i remembered "oh yeah this isn't arby n' the ch33f"

    oh well off to make some waffles

  • I can't stop laughing when he tried to angle the sniper rifle. How many times that has happened to me :P

  • ya dude. dont be all depressed an shit. if you miss a deadline or two so what? hell, tell michinima to give you 2 weeks per episode so you dont blow your brains out. your real fans are commited to you and we always love and respect your stuff. dont be all down cuz you messed up a little, we hardly notice ur short comings. so do your best and dont to be all depressed cuz its the worst fukkin feeling in the world.

    also, prozac (depression meds) makes ur dick fail in bed, and u dont want that shit

  • Idk what's more annoying, when Jon complains or when people rehash the same complimentary comment?

  • I still remember the first day my friend decided to show me "Master ch33f sucks at Halo 3"

    I had never laughed so fucking hard in my laugh, the first time I heard the "hello i am master ch33f lolololololllol" was just fucking amazing man.

    You need to realize that you have created something from very little, which takes alot of fucking skill and passion to do.

    You should pat yourself on the back more often man.

  • can u maks dvds plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • plz tells us how much u maks jons

  • @VELOCIRAPTOR247 hes not a "machinimator" hes a fucking righter, producer, gamer, director, other awesome stuff dont dumb him down to just machinima hes much more than that

  • it's been a real journey watching all of your series all these years. you've come a long way

  • Jon, you should ask the fans to demand you get more time or something. Isn't it the least we can do? You're one of the last REAL machinimators out there, and always were one of the best. Watching your videos throughout the years is great. Keep doin' what you do.

    Kisses,

    Raptor

  • let fans build the map and use it for the video ex.the church

  • Jon, dont feel depressed, your AMAZING!!!

  • wallace and gromit!!!!!

  • CHUCK TESTA

    

  • Jon im not sure if you read this but I have a friend who forges amazingly and could make you the maps or just make them look good by your deadline. If your interested message me back and i'll give you his gamertag.

  • @1sirus2 no offense but i dont think jon gives 2 shits about your friend. jon dosnt need your help hes like the chuck Norris of machinima

  • Comment removed

  • Jon you rock!

  • oh Jon. Just set the sniper rifle physics to phased then lean it against the wall.

  • @MooneySuzuki3654 Then it would probably be like floating or inside the ground.

  • I love hearing him use his regular voice because he uses this voice for some really funny (not main character) halo-playing characters. Like just some people talking about Halo. Love it.

  • Yep... Jon is too hard on himself. I have been watching since the beginning and to be honest, I am not even really a Halo fan. But I have always found these Arby N The Chief videos to be extremely entertaining. But I can see why you (Jon) would find so many issues in your videos. That is a good thing, almost any creator that isn't an ego maniac will see flaws in their work. But I have not noticed any flaws myself. All I see is a entertaining series that I always look forward too.

  • hey jon you are the best person creating vids on youtube and it'll be a long time befor someone is better. all i can say is all the episodes are freaking awsome and funny, i'v also resently stated saying chiefs awsome possem. can't wait to see how season 7 ends its got my hanging on my seat!

  • Comment removed

  • Why don't you just invite people over to help you with the machinima segments?

  • jon i want to fucking help plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • I've got some first time videos I made inspired by arby n the chief. Not as good as arby n the chief but hey it was worth a shot. Search up my videos it's called six n the ultra/ Broony n Barnabus. Thanks for inspiring me to make these videos Jon :D

  • maybe u should get some help.

    someone who can do what you do.

    less. stressing?

  • I don't see shit when I watch your episodes, all I see is a great show with excellent writing.

  • John take a break man!

  • You give my life meaning once every 2-3 weeks.

  • i feel your pain about the sniper rifle Jon, that fucking cunt will never stand up right.

  • This really makes me want to start doing my own cool stuff like this... But I probably wouldn't start doing so much work until I got more subscribers :)

  • God. You're a genius!

  • Jon, I gotta say that you are really an awesome film maker. But you really go a bit too hard on yourself.

    Really hope you can take a vacation after season 6 and season one of Hypermail are done.

    I know this is your job but seriously bro. You are gonna really ruin your health for this.

    And man... Really you need help from other people gosh. Your show is really popular and you really deserve more viewers and more money and more people working with you with making your episodes in editing.

  • I say stop making its for a year or a half

  • Dude Jon, get a girlfriend, go on a vacation and take some time off! else you gonna ass-plode

  • thanks for making the show it's great

  • yeah the that dunken guy dude is your voice xD

  • This has been my favorite internet series since high school, mainly because I use to be a video game addict who experienced many of these scenerios (haha used to be? lol). I am so glad this series is still going strong, the intelligent/idiot struggle between arby and MC is the epitome of every gamer out there. Wanting to have fun most of the time but still a little profane. I am leaving for basic in a week so if I can't watch the whole series for any reason, just know Arby n the chief BRAVO <3

  • Jon needs a job at South Park Studios.

  • I've watched your videos for years and got everything I needed to make some of my own. I can definitely say that after seeing this, I can get started. You are my hero. Wish me luck dude.

  • Comment removed

  • How do you record the voices?

  • Jon you are too hard on yourself, your videos are amazing, everytime a new video comes im freaking exited, even the L.A ones i were amazed about, one of your newer episodes "cradle to grave" is one of the best, not only in humor, but also with Adam the character is beautiful written all i want to say is you are one of the coolest guys on youtube! respect all the way.

  • Man I hope Machinima and/or YouTube pay Jon a decent amount

  • you are a good person MORAL SUPPORT FTW!

  • Jon your show is my favorite on youtube. Thank you.

  • @FL546 So you were fine watching his show when you didn't know he smoked, but now that you do you can't watch anymore? Well, what the fuck?

  • I hear you Jon, Machinimating is WAAAAAY harder than it looks.

  • Why the hell did people dislike this? I say this mainly based on the fact that I think if you don't like something don't watch it, but whatever. And I totally understand your depression, I'm a writer too. I'm constanly looking back at my work and thinking "I need to make this better".

  • I'm sure you're not the only one who can't enjoy their creation once it's done. You're an awesome director and writer. Keep it up Jon and take some time to be kind to yourself. :)

    You the man.

  • Listen, I'm sorry. I couldn't help laughing when you were swearing at the tv when you kept failing to set up the sniper rifle.

  • Always crazy to see how much work is actually put into these short videos.

  • @MrFloppyFish

    ie: J.J. Abrams and LOST.

  • @FL546 I know but its his choice and we must respect that we can't live his life

  • FL546 please do not judge people on their habits if that's the case then I shall assume you are a sad person who needs to hate others to feel better

  • @thecrazyevilleaf but dude. he SMOKES!!!!! :O thats not good!!!!

  • @FL546 So is failing English class.

  • 6:00 - 7:05 looks like me when i have alot of bourbon in me. Has happened to me many times. Forge and booz dont mix

  • Jon your on my list if i ever visit vancouver to come visit you and chill with some whiskey.

  • I couldn't do this because I have no patience and I would eventually quit... which makes me respect you a whole lot more.

  • @ixtoxicxz umm you don't need patencie to make a show all you need is paper and an idea the people who need patecine would be the people who pay you for your show

  • Hmm...I think he likes Sonic

  • you are a genius

  • Holy shit almost 15 hours of Arby and chief you should get paid for that that shit it cool

  • @ipodtouchhelper500 He does.

  • I think you should get fans to build your forge maps if you seem picky over them, I can't build shot either but my friend is amazing

    also set your physics to fixed by pressing X on weapons if you want them to place them better but over then that I'm amazed once again I love your work ive grew up over the last years with it :D

  • you sm0ke? fuck y0u then i am n0t watching your show anym0re g0 die :/ i h0pe y0u get cancer

  • @FL546 go fuck yourself dipshit telling other people to die i hope your entire family dies too

  • @Mrpaulojorge97 #realtalk

  • 6:00 You forgot the most important reason.

    You can't lower your guns online. Only in local and LAN games.

  • what program does he use for editing? Also, keep up the awesome work you do, it's fucking amazing!

  • jon you are amazing your work is flawless dont give up

  • Your series gave me so much laughs over the years! Thank you very much for that!

  • /watch?v=124sP54jVlg

    New story episode for those who misssed it!

  • @TheStrikingPlague

    Thank you! Never appears in my sub box.

  • Wow, I never realised how much work you put into making these. Although I still get pissed off when I see that there's no new story episode, I can now see why. Have you tried using Bungie Pro to get HD game footage? As for the storage, surely Machinima pay you enough to buy a hard drive or will buy you one if it means HD. Since Halo only actually works at 1366x768, I'd only reccomend 720p HD.

    Either way, the videos are awesome. =)

  • Machinima are fucking assholes, giving people and video creators a DEADLINE!?! If it wasn't for them i'm pretty the 7 billions subscribers would leave in a heart beat....

  • @palindinX Dude, Machinima only has like 4,109,246.Not 7 billion.lol

  • @palindinX 7 billion subscribers? I wasn't aware that 90-95% of the world population even had youtube accounts...

  • @dasjugsboi Ya....i was just "Raging". Didn't really put to much thought in my comment.... it's like one of those moments where you're all like " ARRRGGG!!!! I'M SO MAD RIGHT NOW, I HAVE TO COMMENT ABOUT MY FEELINGS!!!!!" :D

  • Jon doesnt have enough space for HD video because of Chiefs sexay pronz
