This is the beginning of a series about a man who likes to talk about his exploits. The truth, however, is rarely the same. It may be a little slow for some of you speed freaks out there :) but i try to go for some of the "Family Guy" unconfortable pauses on this one. Thanks for viewing.

it's too lazy...

some simple tweaks could have made this alot better. spenting the extra time to add true fbf animation ti this would have done wonders.
the comedy is by no means near family guy, the key to family guy isnt a long pause, its to have subtle changes and akward situations run by as fast as possible, its not just a pause, its timing...
its a decent idea, an old one, but decent. the punch line was seen a mile away.
your saving factor to this flash is the addition of spam... SPAM RULES ALL!
can't wait to see some improvements on the next one!

sound

Sound is a problem. this should be made a rule for all posters on NG...
if you don't have a decent mic or a sound studio.. PLEASE ADD SUBTITLES..
I might have enjoyed the flash but I couldn't understand a damn word so I turned it off after 5 seconds.

Pretty darned funny

All around pretty funny, not the best animation but definitely enough to get the point across, and better than a lot of what I've seen on NG. However, the sound quality was somewhat iffy, and the story could have been drawn out a bit more... I saw plenty of opportunity for improvement. Still, a strong start. Keep going, I really liked this submission.

er not bad

this is quite good its definately got promise but i think it needs subtitles or something bcos i cant understand a word hes saying and im not deaf

Not ready for prime time just yet

The concept is good - there are a gajillion different possible story lines with this idea. But as is, it didn't seem funny enough for an entire series. For one, I'm not sure about the way you're using "uncomfortable pauses". If the chip-eating scene was an example, it was way too stretched-out. For the way the character was drawn, you should probably focus a bit more on lip-syncing. As for the character itself, it may work - I'd think something a little closer in vocal mannerisms to Cliff from Cheers would be better, but I can see this one working. Just keep working at it, the concept is definitely a keeper in my opinion. Good luck!
