This was really clever! Perfect song choice and great editing-I really got an idea of the show without ever having seen the pilot.

[nightdancer342]

Oh thank you!! Just for anyone who is curious, it is a bit dark and crude (rated for mature audiences)... but I thought it was hilarious. lol!

I agree with Becca, it was a perfect song choice. I thought this show looked stupid until I heard the premise of the show, then I was like "Wow this is clever." Great editing, and beat use. Really want to see this show now.

Thanks Brooke! Initially I was just watching because I love Elijah Wood, but I then heard it was a critically acclaimed comedy from Australia--- the same guy who did the original reprises his role of Wilfred in the US version. I think anyone who knows or has owned a dog can atest that they can be very pushy animals, especially if you let them! It just makes the show even more funny! And I think the pushover loser role is played perfectly by Elijah! LOL!

Oh, that was great! I'd heard about this but hadn't really seen anything for it and this makes for an awesome promo! Perfect song choice, too! I enjoyed it a bunch!

[nightdancer342]

Thanks Aislynn! I'm very glad you enjoyed it

[Brooke]

I actually did know that, Sara. Did you also know that it's the same creator too?

[nightdancer342]

Yeah! I saw that! I think that's really cool that it's like a legit import-- LOL! I guess they tried that with MTV Skins (same creator/writer), but I watched half of an episode and I thought it was terrible! Really poor acting mixed with an odd, unrealistic American life style. xD

Great vid, Sara! I love Elijah Wood but was never too sure about this show - this vid made it look fun. Nicely done!

[nightdancer342]

Thanks Eryn! Haha, Well, it's a little raunchy, but it has cute qualities about it too- I mean, Wilfred is almost like Chucky from Child's Play, telling the guy what to do- in some ways I don't know if Wilfred is helpful or extremely bad for the character Ryan, because mostly he's encouraging a druggy lifestyle. lol

And Elijah? He's just naturally hilarious with his scrawny bod jumping around- he's so hyper. I love the guy. I wonder... he's probably shorter than me in real life... what is he, like 5.6"? LOL! But yeah, I am looking forward to the next episodes.

[Uruviel]

That was really cool! This show seems really odd, but I love Elijah Wood so I might have to check it out.

[nightdancer342]

Thank you Heather!!!
