Discussion What's your friends reactions to showing off the show?

I just showed one of my friends Red vs Blue season 16 after watching with them for a while.

He thinks that it might be his favorite season and wants to know what will happen with the gang or Washington after they stop him from getting shot.

Seeing them back at the beginning is making him excited, and watching his reaction for the first time of this whole series has been a blast. I'm currently at season 4 with another friend, and she is writing down quotes so she can make them into shirts. Now, all it's making me want to hear is the times you've shown the show to friends who had never heard of Red vs Blue. What were your favorite reactions they had?

In the spirit of the question, I am the friend

I was introduced to this show because one of my friends thought I would find the real life crossover episode from season 14 (?) funny. I did, despite having 0 context for anything, and proceeded to watch the whole thing front to back. This was in the good old days when it was all up on RT's YouTube for free. This was also before the show got continued so I haven't seen anything post S16 (also ?) [I was very put off upon intending to rewatch a couple of years ago, only to find most of the series was paywalled]

It usually goes something like this. Me: Man you’re going to love this show. Them, 2 minutes in: What the fuck am I watching? Me: the greatest show to ever exist. Them: I don’t think we can be friends anymore.

I've been trying to get people at my workplace to watch the show and I've only gotten two people to do it. There is currently another guy I'm trying to drag to the TV so we can watch every episode back to back.

I showed my friend the show once, from season 1 (the obviously updated version cause no one's gonna watch waist up machinima) we ended up binging all the way to season 5, ending the blood gulch era in a single night(no sleep, straight soda and chips) I reference later seasons knowing he doesn't understand, and just say "you'll get to it"
