You actually have a good point. I actually tried to get into it, and I realized a lot of people had already done what I was trying to do.

I do still enjoy good reviews though, so hopefully it doesn't go away completely! But I do think a lot of the people who started have been burnt out. I also think it's common, in general, for humor venues to stop being funny and start being annoying. Even Saturday Night Live isn't that funny anymore.

Hmm. I don't think the video review format will go away entirely. If anything, the Nostalgia Critic/AVGN/Linkara-inspired ways will probably fall out of favor, and then someone else with a new/fresh take on the genre will come along and set the standard for the next 5-6 years.

(I actually forgot to mention, I rather like most of Chad Rocco/CR's videos, even if he makes them very infrequently. They're not perfect, but they're decently made, imho)

And that is true! Comedy tends to change with the times, and what might have been funny then probably might not be a few years later. That said, I do think some of the NC's older episodes kind of hold up to this day, but I don't know if his post-return ones would be the same.
