I am fine with skits; always have been and always will be. If the reviewers want to have some fun with their reviews, I'm all for it. But I agree that they shouldn't neglect the movie in favor of their skits and I've come to realize that the Nostalgia Chick has been doing this a lot.

Linkara and Spoony always keep their skits at the beginning or end of their reviews so that people who don't care for them can avoid them and the rest of the video is dedicated to the review itself. The Chick's videos are based on the skits rather than the videos, it seems. As much as I loved the Dark Nella saga (because Nella sold that story to me, not the Chick), the movies featured in it didn't get as much screentime as the skits did.

So yeah, in the case of the Nostalgia Chick, I'm starting to agree with people who think her skits are way too long and overused.

Yeah, they're all doing these reviews because they enjoy it, and they're under no requirement to do what we tell them. They listen because they respect us as fans, but they don't have to. So I'm not going to demand they adhere to a certain way of doing things.

I will agree that the Chick's skits are beginning to dominate her reviews more than the actual reviews. The Grease 2 review wasn't bad, but the Little Mermaid one was fairly well dominated by the skit. Maybe she's starting to figure out the balance, but I think that she might be better off separating the skits into a side video, like the Thanks for the Feedback or TeamNChickLabs things.

I'm not against any of the reviewers trying something new and different, but the skits are a little dominating, given that they've been put in relatively quickly. Linkara built to his storylines starting up, they just suddenly appeared in Lindsey's reviews.
