Codex and the Knights of Good are back!
Felicia Day’s massive popular, award-winning Internet TV show is gearing up for its 3rd season so now’s a great time to go back and watch all the rest of them. Season 2 is out today, and it’s even better than the first.
(If you haven’t seen the first, go get it. Yes, you can watch them all online for free but the DVD has extras and better quality and buying it means they can afford to make more and I want more so go buy it.)
The life of Codex, the neurotic online gaming addict (played by Felicia Day, a slightly less neurotic, ex-gaming addict) is not getting any easier . Her Guildmate stalker (Sandeep Parikh) is still after her, the stalker’s insane mother got Codex evicted, her new neighbor is a stuntman, the other members of her gaming guild are infighting, a server outage threatens their very way of life, and things couldn’t possibly get any worse only, of course, they do.
All of the cast are perfect in their roles — boy, do I recognise these people — but Day’s brilliant writing and charming acting bring The Guild to life. The episodes are short (to fit under YouTube’s 10-minute limit) and loaded with humor, gamer drama and character development.
