What are you initial thoughts and feelings of the webseries?


"It was comedy, and it was one of those things that you could watch again because its not bad bad, but its kind of bad good. Like it knows its bad but it makes it good. Like with the editing and stuff."

"They developed, the characters, as it went on. I thought the 2nd episode was better than the 1st. and the 3rd one. There was a lot more comedy, and action to it."

"I think the girl should have been in it more because she was just there and she didn't really do anything."

"I think the first one focused more on development of the characters. Just introducing them separately and then the 2nd one had a story base. then the third one is just kind of random. It was just trippy and getting high for no apparent reason. until the end."


What do you think of the characters and their interactions?


"Josh's character, it might have been the shot type, but it just felt like he had been pasted in there."

"I really liked Keiths character, but the characters, I didn't really like the girls character but thats because she didn't really do much. My favourite characters keith and I liked sonny, and Pier. They're probably joint 2nd."

"You had a range of characters, and they weren't the same or anything which was good."

"and they were really different which was good."


Do you prefer the first second or third episode and why is that?


"The second one because it didn't have all the hassle of the first one. The third one was just abit confusing."

Do you think it worked though?

"I think the effect was to confuse the audience which worked but it was just a bit weird, and random, in terms of storyline."

So did you prefer the 2nd one?

"I prefered the 2nd one but I got what was happening in the 3rd one."

"I prefered the 2nd one. I think the thrid one was too short."

Was the episode structure for the 2nd and third episodes better than the 1st?

"It flowed better than the first one."


What do you think of the fan page on facebook?

"I havent seen a lot of it so far but from what I have seen I think it's good. I like the idea of posting things from the characters perspectives."

'I like the fan page, its quite simple but effective. It does keep it interesting, like you said about the characters posting things. Just keeps the background story going for the webseries."


The target audience was people our age. 16-21. do you think facebook is a good place for a fan page?

'Yes definatly."

Do you all have facebook?

"Yes"


What do you think could be improved for the next episode if we made one?


"Development of the second."

"I think you should cut out the swearing because it just like a beep a minute. I know it was just in the first one but it was just like beep after beep."

"I'd quite like the same setting as the second one. Different storyline, different character."

"Maybe have one or two main characters and then rotate the other characters around. So you get to see the old characters, like the audience favourites, and then you get to see their new reactions with the new characters."


What are the good and bad points of the episodes?


"It was too long, and too much swearing. Good points was that it managed to establish a good base for the episode to start on. It wasn't too tiresome that you couldn't watch it again."

"I think the first one introduced the characters well. Too much swearing though, it was just beep beep beep."

"I think you focus the humour too much on Keith going crazy at the beginning. Apart from the frijj bit which was really funny. Good word play. There the two funny bits, you need to stretch the comedy out."

What about the second one?

"I really liked the second one. It was funny, it had a good story."

" I liked it too, and through out all three of the episodes the characters managed to stay the same which was good. Sometimes in television series the characters change. Their nice one time and then they're really horrible but your characters didn't change."

" Only bad point was when you looked at the camera and when the teachers at the door. But everytime I see that it makes me laugh."

What about the third one then?

"It was too short, I got the idea you were trying to create an element of confusion but it kind of gave it away a bit with the title so maybe something a little bit more cryptic could have worked better."

"I didn't like the teachers acting. She was smiling too much about the fact that theres been a gas leak."


Who is your favourite character?


"I'd have to say sonny, your character. It just made me laugh the way he kept hitting people. It was just one of those things I found hilarious."

"Little things please little minds."

"I just really liked your reactions."

"I liked Keith."

"I liked the one who kept trying to escape. Pier."


Did you think the acting was good?


"I think the acting was good for all the characters."


What did you think of vince as a character?


"It felt as if he was just stuck on there to fill screen time because he kind of just sat there and said something every now and then."

"I think hes one of those characters that doesn't really do or say much but hes a part of it. Make the whole thing whole."


What makes the webseries watchable?


"Humour, slapstick humour. Nonsense. Silly."

"The comedic stuff, and the way it was random, but good random."

"It was just really funny."
