Time to meet the Anti Gman Squad! A show where a group of Helmets attempt and fail to kill the Gman Squad along their episodes. I am currently in work of episode 3, which will introduce : Recon Force - The help of the Anti Gman Squad The Robo - The Anti Gman Squad's creation, however they will soon regret the whole thing. and more! Episode 3 will make the show depart from the improv / skit route taken by the show. Now more scripted and serious with Dark Humor, Episode 3 will be here soon! Meanwhile, catch up on the episodes.

This looks more like you taking a successful idea and running with it for a spinoff. While that is not inherently a bad thing, you couldn't last 15 seconds into the first video without making a joke based in homophobia. This is not impressive.

You could at least try to act... The second episode also seems to be just a lot of screaming.
What made the original G-man squad series good was they had a large number of people delivering improvised humor at a fast pace. The strength lied in it's spur of the moment energy, which is something you've failed to copy. The places this stands out the most are in your editing and delivery. I mean, the editing was decent, except any given scene was cut with a low amount of jokes, which resulted in a lot of wasted time. Additionally, all of the lines were delivered as flatly as possible. My advice to you is to forget about the gman squad altogether. Even if you want to go for a similar style of humor, it'll be way better to do so without retreading old ground, and probably easier. Pick a game and try to just "have fun" with it, perhaps preparing some game altering elements to react to (such as console commands, glitches, or mods). The trick is to let your group's sense of humor flow naturally. ...or just stop making videos. If you don't want to make something new, there are plenty of half-assed gman squad imitators already, and none of them are entertaining.

I am trying to make a decent story line for the rest of the series. I seem to still have a problem with some stuff also. I am also trying to do animation for some scenes in there at least. But hey, those are finished and done. I can't do anything about it since I deleted all episode's recordings. I already restarted on Episode 3, maybe you'll like that one better with some major improvements.
When I was recording game footage with friends early on, I wanted something good to happened and I forced it, which resulted in shitty footage In the moment action works out great, just go with the flow and don't try to go out of your way to make it happen or to force it That being said I didn't feel any laughter to it, it was dry. And the editing is great, your editing is fine and you shouldn't feel the need to really massively change it but what you need to change is the humor I'm agreeing with people here, I think you should move onto another project, something original and fresh. Brain storm with your friends and try to avoid reviving old stuff by making them into spin offs good luck and have fun
