[bananas0monkeys1]

[kenkopp69]

[CerebrumMortum]

Original, witty and totaly self-aware.

Ingenious.

[yayrupees]

IT'S MEGAMAN!

[starwarsfamilyguy0]

lol this is the best random vid i ever found!

[cheesecake1monster]

lol ' not bad' :D

[HCNeto]

this robot is hot

[soccerboy5411]

Robot is kinda hot....just sayin...

[KungfuCow5]

Gay Guy reminds me of Ben Stiller.

[TheUncharted331]

This Ninja and Ask a Ninja are the best Ninja's youtube

[FaxModem1]

Is ninja human with some ninja powers? Or is he part of some sort of ninja alien/mystical race thing?

[7Monastica7Rex7rgis]

"Drink Your Fruit Today!" Thumbs up for healthy hearts!

[akissy]

Travis, this is like teh 130984092475027609347509345 time I've seen this episode. and I never tire of it. Just one question: Is it me or does Robot make-up and hair gradually become more human-like as the episodes go by? o.o

Thanks! ^^

[sivartis]

@akissy

Ah, well, because we didn't have a budget on this show, we were at the mercy of my friend Michael's schedule, who did the makeup when he could. When he couldn't, it usually looks worse... I did like it in the Mr. Furper episode, which was the last one we filmed...

~Trav

(PS. Second season will be much better, technically speaking)

[akissy]

@sivartis Oh! o.o I thought it was to signal robot's adaptation to the human environment he was living on. XD I complicate things too much eh? XD

[helohola26]

i just realized that what robot is watching in the flashback is PC vs. mac :O MIND BLOWN!

[sivartis]

@helohola26

hehe, yay! I love putting little treats in my videos like that. Look what's on the shelf behind Robot in the Mr. Furper episode!

~Trav

[oXxxJasexxXo]

here i go again ;) cant get enough

[princessproll00]

this is funny

[ryuuk96]

"I'm going to go sneak a peak."

"...Nothing about that plan seems inappropriate."

Applaud the ninja!

[Hazeljv3]

Ninja should come stay at my house, I room with two other ninja. :P

[kcronig]

drink your fruit today!!

[nitrodavid]

you should get sponsored by an orange juice company

[KingOfAnama]

the robot looks more gay than travis

[peruru84]

"How was his penis? Not bad." lol, I like this show.

[TheCommentCookie]

I love ninja's caracter! Too funny!

[Nani101]

How was his penis?

... not bad.

xDDDD

I'm wondering... will we ever see Ninja's face?

[lifedoesntimitate000]

@Nani101 - Actually, there is an episode in which Brian Giovanni makes a very brief non-Ninja appearance. I encourage you to watch through them all again and see if you can spot him.

[Nani101]

@lifedoesntimitate000 ...!

Step aside, physics homework. I'm watching these again.

[akatsukimaster666]

oh ninja your various quotes and many funny faces are memorable

this show,awesome

[firefox112233445566]

i just rewatched this episode and why is eric moving in the photo in the flashback

[sivartis]

@firefox112233445566

Probably because it's a TV... :-)

~Trav

[firefox112233445566]

@sivartis oh yh, i see, its mac vs pc. its just that you cant see the depth to because of the angle and he moves very little in the first shot, and i didnt see you.

thanks anyway

[anrk94]

this is cool.

first episode i watched and its awesome.

the gay guy reminds me of Ben Stiler.

[sivartis]

@anrk94

Sweet! Welcome aboard. It gets better :-)

~Trav

[anrk94]

love this...and the gay guy reminds me of Ben Stiler.

[scouser96100]

this is funny but the gay guy disturbs me

[anilinz]

BAHAHA it even has its own opening theme song XD

[glacier2win]

ninja ftw

[jolie32159g]

Not bad.

[TylerBunnylover]

I feel like watching Mortal Kombat now. Wtf.

[tasteslikepaintnwood]

Gay guy's shirt makes me want some fruit-striped gum!

[smellmyskunk2]

i thought he would disappear aswell! :D

[00no4]

lol i love this

[healthyobsession801]

I heart gay guys shirt! (:

[DeathMonky22]

u r gay ;D --:

[TheSamletMachine]

"There's a fire in the toilet."

I don't know why, by that is my favourite line in this episode. It just makes me LOL.

[sivartis]

@TheSamletMachine

I'd actually forgotten about that, but it brought back a great memory of us sitting at the table in a production meeting and talking about how we could tell that Robot was peeing oil... ;-)

~Trav

[tasteslikepaintnwood]

Seriously-i want a t-shirt with Ninja leaning over and saying "Nothing about that plan seems inappropriate"

[sivartis]

@tasteslikepaintnwood

Good idea! On the list it goes!

~Trav

[tasteslikepaintnwood]

@sivartis WOO HOO!

[zack1e]

"Let be friends, still"

DAWWWWWWH

[annatheHPtwerdfightr]

nothing about that plan seems inappropriate!

ahhaha oh man I have a feeling I'm not going to get much done today....this show seems too good!

[kokorosenshi]

at about 3:10 on the bottom left of the screen, you can see someones reflection

[sivartis]

@kokorosenshi

That's actually Gay Guy's reflection, I think.

~Trav

[1638490]

@sivartis no thats a vid of one of your mac v pc things

[SyreenInSapphire]

3:08 Check out the director in the mirror.

[Mierke88]

Very funny! I loved the idea of him peeing oil XD

[anellajean]

"how was his penis???" "not bad" wow!! i'm newly in love with this show! its soo addicting! deff telling friends about this!

[WonderfulAkari]

Go Ninja!

[bobo13193]

Did Ninja call Gay Guy a douche??

[lifedoesntimitate000]

@bobo13193 - He did! You may have been the first to notice, but even if you're not, good for you! That was always one of my favorites.

[tasteslikepaintnwood]

"Rust Issues. Remember? Robot."

I'd wear a shirt with that qoute.

[Lovinsoaps]

I'm sooooo glad I found these. I was so freaken bored!

[ledzeppelinfan12]

Haha this show is amazing!

[Kajit90]

Is Robot watching one of your Mac vs PC ad ?

[sivartis]

@Kajit90

YES! Good eye. We have to be careful what we use on the TV for copyright reasons, and when we filmed this first episode, we didn't have much as an option, and I thought that'd be a fun little gag.

~Trav

[weofparadigm]

I think it's kind of funny that out of all three of them, Gay Guy is the straight man. Anyway, this is a funny show. I will share it with my friends.

[sivartis]

@weofparadigm

I love that, too! We got criticized early on for Gay Guy not being "gay" enough, but we knew he had to be the connecting character. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

~Trav

[Y2JTFR]

Gay Guy is kinda like Josh Gates from Destination Truth.

[Nani101]

"How was his penis?"

XD

[poketardis]

he might be a humanoid robot have you ever thought about that gay guy?

[dtjuuh]

Haahaa

[oXxxJasexxXo]

im so sharing this on my fb page, i want more ppl to enjoy u guys as much as i did

[sivartis]

@oXxxJasexxXo

Oh, thank you! All your comments are great to read, thanks, Jase!

~Trav

[MrSpooky520]

is there two because one was in the restroom and other going to look for a job???

[lifedoesntimitate000]

@MrSpooky520 - Nope. Just the one robot. He pees oil very quickly, apparently. I think we can assume that while Robot comes out and tells Ninja he's getting a job, Gay Guy is near the bathroom, shocked and stunned and unable to move because of what he's seen. Then, once Robot leaves, Gay Guy has regained his senses, and comes out into the dining room.

[CodeMonkeyMasta]

lol

I see wut tu did thar

[alfrob]

is this episode 1?

[BartS4177]

no they just had 100 episodes and you missed them and they deleted every trace of the episodes and they also rebooted the series but still felt the need to keep the episode count up.

[sivartis]

@BartS4177

I think I love you. :-)

~Trav

[frostbite1444]

is this episode 1?

[VikingSubber]

yes

[raeroocha]

I found this by accident, but I'm very glad I did! :)

[GangstersGreed]

how was his penis

xD

[bigbookofnothing]

Somebody, compare the theme song to the theme to zacharee and ga

[sivartis]

Gotta say, didn't see much similarity... We were going for a 70's/80's theme song vibe, like "Perfect Strangers" or "Growing Pains"

Brian Giovanni did a masterful job creating it for us!

~Trav

[bigbookofnothing]

oh well i just thought the music sounded alike. thanks alot for replying tho!

[bigbookofnothing]

also i love your show hehe

[mmomaster2]

why do you always do the squigly trav thing trav? we already know your name and that its you.

~ Jonathan

[sivartis]

I always put my name with my comments. I just think it adds a bit of personality to the otherwise anonymous nature of commenting on videos, blogs, etc. At the very least, it holds me accountable to what I type more than just a username. If more people put their name with their comments, I think there'd be a lot less stupidity on the internet. :-)

It started when i was doing the Musecast, and there were 5 of us using the same account, and it was useful to know who a comment was from.

~Trav

[mmomaster2]

look at the tv screen, its the mac vs pc guy. I wonder if anyone els saw it other than me

[lifedoesntimitate000]

I noticed it! But then, I'm him, so I had some insider knowledge. :)

[mmomaster2]

lol! so that sorta means that I am the only one. since you are the only one that replied to my comment it means that I am the only one. well as I think about it, I am like a half a year late so no one is watching this.

[SpaceAndrew]

"Let's be friends still."

Cracked me up.

[rushingspirit28]

3:00 i have that lamp! lol

[mmomaster2]

me 2!

[jonathon1018]

u said episode 1 this is 101 :)

[sivartis]

@jonathon1018

That's how TV shows are numbered, it stands for Season 1, episode 1. The first episode of season 2 will be #201...

~Trav

[jonathon1018]

oh i see!

thanks lols

[zackky7702]

hahahaha i love this :D

[pete275]

he talks like a robot, but he could also be a Klingon

[sunflyer40]

After all that - "How was his penis? , not bad." roflmao

[Ebuverthebicepcurler]

sounds like its a homosexual ninja

[tadshackles]

THANK YOU HANK GREEN FOR SENDING ME HERE!

So funny!

[RECooke]

Very odd!  And funny!

[MissHannahMinx]

I need some one to build me a robot like him!

[imaboss0809]

I actually really like this. I hope you can have another season!

[superseandude]

this ROX!

[ShiftingStars]

are there only 8 episodes?

[sivartis]

@ShiftingStars

We're trying to finish the first 4 episodes in season one. After that, who knows? Thank you so much for watching. The more fans we get, the better chance we have to having another season...

~Trav

[lifedoesntimitate000]

What Travis means to say is that we're trying to finish the *last* four episodes in season one.

He doesn't always get it right, but he tries really hard. :)

[sivartis]

@lifedoesntimitate000

Wait, what did I say?

~T

[DragonFire381]

These are hilarious! And Robot is well fit.

[kiwifruit138]

ha ha, right when he says, im gonna go sneak a peak, i was like, thats totally gay and then i was like, wait, oh yeah :)

[Wingz136]

ninja sounds a lot like keanu reeves in the matrix. I wonder if that's intended

[facetiousJAT]

on the table at the beginning the carton of juice says drink your fruit. this is about a gay guy a ninja and a robot, isnt that a little bit bias?

[akissy]

biased? ._.U given the fact that Travis is gay in rl (as far as I saw in 2 hot guys in the shower's video on relationships), I think he's just making fun of himself... good comedians do that. ^^

[Petrades]

Some day I'll be able to watch this episode... :( It never loads.

[sivartis]

@Petrades That is a shame, I'm so sorry! It works from my end, so I can't see what the problem might be...

~Trav

[REMsleeper428]

Oh, the ending's greaaat!

[snapplepeachtea56]

SOO FUNNY xpppp how was his penis?

not bad..... XPPPPPP that made me laugh so hard XPP

[octollama]

can't wait to see more!

[SkippyTheSquid]

Lmao. Love thisss.

[mysterialite]

This is freaking hilarious. I love it.

[unbridged77]

Omg. This is fantastic! So funny- I love it !!!

[SuburbanNinja8000]

A Gay NInja? O well, there human as well. I still find that wrong.

[sivartis]

Ninja isn't gay, as far as I know. Otherwise, it'd be called "Robot, Gay Ninja & another Gay Guy" :-)

Thanks for watching!

~Trav

[SuburbanNinja8000]

Sorry... the Ninja sounds very smart, All Ninjas are human.

[AdamX222]

@SuburbanNinja8000 What about Ninja Turtles?

[MagicTurtle643]

This is awesome

[AngryMarshmallowProd]

So frickin' funny! Great job, guys!

-Kate

[sivartis]

You're awesome for saying so, thank you!

~Trav

[kungfuninja314]

love these shows, can never get enough ninja humor

[sivartis]

Well, thanks so much! There's a lot more to come! :-)

~Trav

[Infernojin]

HAHAHAH AMAZING!!!

[kajukenbo1947]

very funny

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Yay! Thanks!

[Onlyoneua]

LOL it was like um okay

[ortega941]

its ok

[KiltedTechie]

excellent, another great job. Keep it coming.

[bluebrd4x4]

That was hysterical! What a great and fresh idea.

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Thank you. Not for complimenting the idea, because the idea wasn't mine. Rather, thank you for thinking it was hysterical. I wrote a lot of this episode, so it makes me smile to think that it made you smile.

[sivartis]

Thanks so much! Please spread the word! We're making a whole lot more episodes, and we want as many people to enjoy is as we can! :-)

~Trav

[acmecomedy]

Awesome.  Love seeing Acme performers creating great stuff like this! Keep it up!

[arminelec]

Why isn't the robot called an android? I'm just wondering...

[lifedoesntimitate000]

If pressed, I reckon I would say this: "Android" has sort of a muddy meaning. Typically, yes, it means a robot who looks and acts human-ish. However, in Star Wars, R2-D2 is clearly referred to as a "droid." Way to go, Lucas! Also, when the word "robot" was first introduced in 1921, its meaning was equally unclear, or at least different than it is today. All this is to say a robot isn't always an android, but an android is always a robot.

Again, that'd probably be my answer, if pressed.

[sivartis]

Eric!! Stop ruining surprises! We find out in an upcoming episode why Robot is called "Robot"!! Sheesh! :-)

~T

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Sorry. I fail. I really need to learn phrases like, "In a future episode..." and "All will be revealed in time," and "I dunno. Just ask Travis."

[sivartis]

It's ok, I still love you . Not like the love a gay guy feels for another gay guy, though. More like the love a gay guy feels for a straight guy who he thought was a gay guy but is actually a straight guy but still seems a little like a gay guy a little bit, but that's irrelevant because he'd still love his straight friend even if he wasn't the least bit gay.

Like that.

~Trav

[arminelec]

Very cool! :D

[wynflete]

Well, so glad that the wait is over and we can finally meet the boys.

Good job of getting over the "the robot looks a lot like a guy" situation.

I'm looking forward to seeing more, more, MORE. Hope that we get to see how the guys ended up together.

Well done guys. All the best with the project. Bring it on.

-Debbie :)

[sivartis]

Your wish is granted.. Episode 2 is an origin story. :-)

~Trav

[wynflete]

WooHoo :)

Awesome is this like a 3 wishes thing? Do I get two more?

[sivartis]

If your wish is for a mac vs PC spoof next week and another episode of RNGG the week after that, then yes! Absolutely!

~Trav

[Svenguy]

I REALLY liked this.

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Well, then we REALLY like you!

[TerriJFreedman]

what's on the screen in the bottom left corner starting at 2:57?

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Mac vs. PC commercial... or is it? Thanks for watching.

[sivartis]

Eric, shush!  All will be revealed :-)

~Trav

[makinlaughs]

Funny stuff fellas. You make Big Ed proud.

[lifedoesntimitate000]

Yay! Thanks!

[helennasantoslevy]

AWESOME. AWESOME. and MORE AWESOME!!!!! I freaking love the push in at the beginning to the door of the apt. Freaking brilliant!!!! xoxoox H

[lifedoesntimitate000]

I love (genuinely) that *that's* a thing you noticed and commented on. When I first saw it, I was absolutely tickled. Thanks for watching.

[luckylegendary]

wow! Great work! I sense a Legendary crossover! U Rock :-)

[sivartis]

I would love that. I'll discuss with the writers :-)

~Trav

[cafrinej]

You guys, it came out SO FANTASTIC! I hope everyone watching appreciates the insane amount of work that went into creating this. Good job! I can't stop watching it... and it's funny every time. :)

[lifedoesntimitate000]

I sure as heck damn appreciate it! It *is* funny every time, isn't it. Ahh, good times.

[TravisRichey]

SO great. Thanks to everyone who made this happen!

[mmomaster2]

whats with the awesome user name?

[TravisRichey]

Weird that you just left this reply. I don't check this username much. Originally, when I didn't think I was going to do any vlogging on Sivartis, I thought, "I should have a "me" channel for vlogs and video responses." Now it's pretty much just a place for me to put career stuff, clips, etc. Stuff that's not funny. :-)

~Trav
