Pure Pwnage

Hey Silkroad Members, I've been watching Pure Pwnage since last year. Hoping you guys know this Internet Tv Show.

Info:


Pure Pwnage (pronounced “pure ownage” [1], IPA: ['phjʊɹ oʊnɪdʒ]) is an Internet-distributed mockumentary series from ROFLMAO Productions. The fictional series purports to chronicle the life and adventures of Jeremy (played by Jarett Cale), a Canadian self-proclaimed "pro gamer". Originating in 2004, thirteen episodes of the series have been released to date. The creators of the show recently estimated their current viewer base to be well over three million. The series is filmed primarily in Toronto but has also included scenes filmed in Calgary, Montréal, and the Netherlands.

The episodes are filmed mostly from the vantage point of Kyle (Geoff Lapaire), Jeremy's brother and roommate in the story. Lapaire, a former physics student, is currently working full time on Pure Pwnage, making income from the "noobstore". A DVD box set of the complete first season is available via the Pure Pwnage website (post). In an interview with Good Game, Geoff Lapaire (Kyle) revealed that there will be three seasons each consisting of twelve episodes and possibly a feature length film.

This show has generated a strong cult following. The characters, as seen through several episodes, are becoming known in real life. Although staged, the recognition seems genuine. As well, the official Internet forum has several users counting posts into the thousands discussing the show.

Most of the information about the Pure Pwnage series comes from the TeamSpeak chat public interviews[2], the Pure Pwnage website, the featurettes, and the regular episodes (see List of Pure Pwnage episodes).
