Good Mythical Morning

Good Mythical Morning is a funny and interesting 10 to 15 minute talk show on YouTube with over 11,250,000 subscribers. Hosted by two lifelong friends, Rhett Mclaughlin and Link Neal, they sing, do sketches, ridiculous challenges, top ten list, and interview people. Their first show went up on YouTube on April, 25 2013, uploaded every Monday through Friday in the morning. Recently they've posted a video on Saturdays about the crew. Each show they do something different whether it's eating foods or doing a game with a guest, they make top ten list and talk about ridiculous topics. To start off the show Rhett and Link introduce the topic that they're going to talk about then with their signature "Let's talk about that," go into an intro clip. After the intro clip they explain further what will be happening during the show, they may also do any announcement at that time. Once they explain what will happen they start the game, tasting food, or just talking about something random. To finish the show in a fun way, they spin a wheel and act out whatever it lands on, then you can head over to another video which is "the show after the show." When comparing GMM to other talk shows such as Ellen, The View, and The Talk, they are close to the same level of views and they are only growing. They have won many awards themselves, 5 Webby awards, 2 shorty awards, 1 Streamy award, shorty award, LA web award and LA WTV award. They have been nominated for many other awards. On average a video will get around a million views some video going way above that and others no where near. Overall the shows are funny lighthearted and great to watch with kids. It is always fun to watch their reactions when they eat or do something they don't like or think is gross. Some videos may not be interesting or is missing material to make it better. If they had the funding or time that a regular talk show has they would be able to grow and do more. Their lack of funding may be holding them back on what they could all do. But Good Mythical Morning is doing well with what they have and continue to produce fun, entertaining content for everyone on YouTube to enjoy for many years to come.

Good Mythical Morning is a fun, engaging show that almost always is hilarious, creative and unique. It's a very addictive show, and, like loads of things you find on YouTube, will leave you clicking and watching more and more.

As a humble analyst, I find myself delighted in the very essence of this show. At its core is communion, but importantly, conversation. "Every" show opens with an inclusive invitation of, "Let's talk..."

So...let's

This show is a miracle. It is a product of clever minds that have cleverly watched an entire medium be created; that is YouTube is a new form of literature.

Snobs often want to rigidly define literature, but GMM is truly literature. It is a conversation with the audience that shifts into a variety show in a way that REQUIRES talent. Its hosts, Rhett & Link often lower themselves in their show, so as to highlight the greatness of their entire crew. That is mythical levels of encouragement.

But can I get personal?

This show saved my mind. I came out of a great deal of pain with the temptation to believe all mankind was evil, then I watched this show. Every-time I was tempted to believe the worst, I turned on this show. "Every"-time, I watched the spirit of this show, remain in the heart of chia pet Lincoln.

I'm not a deep cut nerd or fan. I'm just a humble viewer, reviewer, & analyst but I honestly believe this world is better because of this show. Time often proves these sorts of things slowly. I'm blessed to have found them when I did.

I love this show, though I often laugh harder at the antics of Good Mythical More, this show is crisp perfection. It deserves to BE a doctoral study on how to build a Good company, to be mythical, & how to show you believe in your mythical beasts (those at the communion table).

I'd give them a ten, but there was this really confusing season that at least featured Weird Al.

Thank you for this show. Thank you for your spirit of inclusion & how much you empower your mythical crew, to beasts, to BE their Mythical Best (heart emoji).

(Honestly, their heart & charm means they deserve 11 stars, as in turn it up to)

I've been subscribed to GMM for nearly 4 years now and still enjoy watching the show. Each episode is 10-15 minutes long and are great fun. Rhett and Link are the hosts of the show and are lifelong friends. It is great to see the friendly dynamic between the two and they bounce off each other like a (happily) married couple!

Generally, episodes fall into the following categories:

• Lists: these episodes can focus on any subject, whether it be internet memes, halloween costumes, celebrity instagrams or even serial killers. Most are entertaining, but the ones that centre on subjects I have no interest in tend to drag on.
• Rhett vs. Link: this can take the form of quizzes, figuring out the origin of foods and then using a dart to hit the respective country on a world map etc. Regardless of the type, be sure to expect a unique twist on the general trivia concept, along with funny prizes/forfeits.
• Celebrity episodes: in the past, YouTube 'celebrities' tended to come on the show, but since GMM has gotten so popular, actual celebrities come on.
• Food episodes: these are by far the most entertaining. The 'Will it...?' episodes ask if certain foods 'Will' or not. For example, in 'Will it pizza', they tried sand on a pizza, which obviously...did not pizza!

GMM is a brilliant show and since it has exploded in popularity, the production quality has gone up dramatically. One gripe I have about this show now is that they are focused more on what makes an episodes look good, than what makes an episode actually good to watch. This has resulted in several episodes that have been quite stale and I have not watched fully.

The recent change in the episode releases has also meant that 4-5 episodes are released daily. In the past I almost religiously watched GMM everyday, but am now watching 1 out of 5 each day (unless any of the others catch my interest). I think they are trying to get as much ad revenue as possible and has resulted in a quantity over quality issue for me.

All in all, if you want something to start the morning on, GMM is a good shout. The hosts are great fun, relatable and likeable. The content of the episodes are good, but do not always hit the mark. But, when it comes down to it, YouTube is free so I can't complain too much!

They talk about some interesting things and mirror off each others energy well. Have some pure silly fun skits or light scientific aspects with their experiments. They make funny songs and tackle difficult topics like religion in an easy to understand and friendly way. They are some of the most relatable, charismatic people on youtube.
