This show is trying too hard to be an edgy gaming show for children.Many jokes will go right over the heads of the target audience and adults watching along will be insulted, especially ones who play MMORPGs. I'm just utterly surprised with the crap they're feeding kids these days. And also, what's this live action show doing on cartoon network? Many younger children prefer the bright color from a cartoon instead of plain live action and will not hesitate to change the channel. Also, I find it incredibly insulting to girl gamers. For example the girl protagonist is labeled "and let me stress, not much of a gamer" and how dinner and laser tag "not being a date". The producers of the show are running with an incredibly out of date stereotype. As for effects, I'm thinking they were going for the Power Rangers look, but with the CGI and the like, the terrible props and CGI just make for a huge cluster of laughable quality. Point is, not worth being on t.v. and I should not have to have to displeasure of seeing commercials of it every 5 minutes on cartoon network.
