This episode has probably the most satisfying ending XD

Marcus Lindgren

Your lacking understanding of basic grammar is the opposite of satisfying though. How do you write that and go "yes, this is a good sentence" and submit it without realizing how dumb it makes you look?

@Able Reason I'm not arguing that he isn't a geek, and neither is Dave!
He's arguing that he doesn't call himself a geek, because people have been incorrectly saying that he does call himself a geek.
The fact that people can be X but not call themselves X actually supports Dave's point: just because you judge someone to be X, doesn't mean you can say that they call themselves X, because they don't necessarily.

Dave is very much a maths geek and a word nerd. His act being focused on over-analysis and over thinking subjects makes him come across as having a geek personality. x

High quality work. Intelligent and really funny. Well done all concerned.

I too had always assumed Dave to be a geek. I now realize that he falls much more cleanly into the nerd category. The overlap between those circles is usually pretty high though so I see where the confusion comes from.

Please, tell me I'm not alone when I try to skip the microscopic ad-transition, then realise I missed a second from the show, skip back and, in doing so, lose more time than by just leaving it alone in the frickin first place...

@mama mason Youtubers can manually place ads. I assume Dave intentionally put them on the ad breaks.

I remember seeing the music quiz pic some years ago when it was making the rounds! :) I'm rubbish at band names so I probably was one of the people spending only a few mins on it, didn't think I'd ever see it again but this is funny as heck and has brought me closure XD

Rolling On

i miss this show. it makes me abit emotional knowing it had to end, but i am curious as to why, of all shows, dave gorman's is being put onto youtube periodically. i thought it might be for a new series. but the more likely outcome id say is to test the waters for a show in a digital format and see how that does, either with the network and/or dave being heavy influence on the idea. Either way, if it was more fishy, you'd be able to smell it in the hot summer sun.

I still fully believe that most (if not all) superhero films and comic books are sci fi. They can have other genres too but they're still sci fi.

One Life Gaming

In my opinion, Dave Gorman is one of the greatest entertainers with a powerpoint in history. I am gutted this show was cancelled. Could do with it in this modern age of covid and scaremongering.

Space Monkey

It wasn't cancelled, Dave - the channel wanted more, though making every episode demands a lot of Dave's time and energy and he wanted a break to do other stuff including live shows and he has a young child. He has explained this. He has also said he may do more at some point and also had the not as good though less time consuming Terms & Conditions on the same Chanel.

I would love to have seen Mickeypedia's reaction. But if they had asked his permission to record him, he would have been suspicious because he probably knows Dave enough to know something was up. Plus Dave wants to embarass his friend but not in front of the whole world. That would be too harsh.

What I have never understood is why you are a geek if you go overboard in your fandom for stuff like Sci Fi but it is considered normal to be just as insanely fanatical about sports?

Thorne

4y↑4

Honest question here: What genre is Batman then? As someone who would be considered a geek by most of the metrics Dave described (albeit I don’t particularly wear checked shirts), I enjoy superhero films/comics and have always assumed they were sci-fi, as they generally operate within the realm of and genre tropes of sci-fi. I am now very confused about the offence caused by this statement, given I have certainly made the same mistake before, but wasn’t called up on it

Ideas of James

I'm pretty sure it is a RomCom.

notme222

I don't consider them superhoroes sci-fi, because while some do indeed try to have a scientific basis there are many that don't. And the ones that do often don't dwell on it other than justifying a backstory. (As opposed to something like Star Trek which is constantly encountering phenomenon and recalibrating the deflector dish.)

What they generally tend toward though is crime-fighting action, so I'd probably classify Batman as an Action story. That puts it in the same category as The Bourne Identity, which seems fair to me.

That said, call it whatever you want so long as the people you're talking to understand what you mean.

Ryan Eakins

4y↑2

I'd guess they're considered their own genre of "comic book movie". But I agree they're clearly sci-fi.
Edit: Wikipedia calls them "superhero movies".

Dave's a great entertainer. This was one of the best yet. I know quite a lot of people like Mikipedia. I consider myself a massive Kate Bush fan, I have multiple copies of her albums. Heaps of merchandise too. Yet I was told by someone that I wasn't a real Kate fan because I couldn't remember the name of the high school she went to.

I'd like to add an extractor fan category.
The selectionist. The person who will tell you that they're a massive fan of blank and will then explain why almost of blank is rubbish except for the small part of it that they claim is the true *blank*. In film series its normally about a third of the films in any given series, for music its "the early albums" and tv series usually "up to season 3"

I always laugh out loud watching these shows, alone or in company. So glad he got his man in the end this episode. Genius! (Oh, wait that's another of his shows, but I can't be a Gorm Geek 'cos he is too mainstream now (that doesn't mean I have to stop liking him though, does it!))

I've been binging these and watched the "marmite kind of guy" right before this. I didn't get the "dent without the burns" bit either and I know who that character is. Doesn't help that I'm pretty sure it wasn't capitalized, and the person didn't so much as mention an "H" initial. I only got it in this show because I was primed with the Batman context.

"We are on Dave, it does happen". Now you're on YouTube, how many more comments will you get!? Haha!
By the way, I learned who "Harvey Dent" was from this episode! I remembered seeing the episode when you read that original tweet and I was just as confused as you were. :D
And I also thought Superman, etc, came under sci-fi. Maybe "superhero" movies (or perhaps they should called "comic book movies") are a sub-genre of sci-fi?

Elliot Kouame

4y↑2

A lot of superheroes powers and origins are magical in nature or something like that (which would make them fantasy).
As such, superheroes tend to fall under the "sci-fi and fantasy" heading.

Joseph Bevan

4y↑2

Superheroes don't have to be Sci-Fi, even though there are many whose origin are based in Science Fiction. Most of the time the stories take place in a world with similar technology as ours.

Well this guy seems to think all comics are superhero comics.
There are, oddly enough, sci-fi comics.
And really what could superhero media be other than sci-fi, fantasy or a mix of both? They fit perfectly into one of those categories 100% of the time.

Extractor Fans is clearly just the old fashioned term for Stans

Josh

My favorite term for them is the Shrieking Nerd of Prey.

Scott Elliot

nah the modern extracter fan is called a gatekeeper. Go to r/gatepeeping on reddit

Ian Green

Not really, Stans are obsessive over their subject no matter how popular it/they get wheras extractor fans revel in that sense of superiority the get over people by knowing more stuff than them on a topic and often abandon things when they become too "mainstream". Which isn't to say someone can't be both.

People now use that as a verb "I Stan [insert topic here]" basically means "I have an unhealthy addiction to [insert topic here]"

When were these shows recorded? I'm just curious as it has to be pre-covid, and the other thing is I've seen that image with the bands before on Facebook, but it was quite a while ago. But I'm SURE the one I saw was genuine and do-able or am I imagining it?

This episode first aired in November 2016, so some time shortly before then. And it must have been recorded after the 23rd of June that year, because the brexit vote is referenced in the past tense, so it would have been recorded somewhere in that time window.

Hhmm, something unusual in the intro sequence caught my attention. Freeze framing the spoof newspaper which flies past, there's a jokey headline and a few other bits which are easily readable. But the one piece which has gotten me curious, is the headline:
DEATH OF 'SUNSHINE GIRL'
Seems a bit incongruous. But there's a strange twist, I discovered that there was a genuine headline from 2005 about the "Sudden death of 'Sunshine Girl' " in the Manchester Evening News, relating to the death a young woman known as the 'Sunshine Girl' who worked as a holiday rep in the Canary Islands.
If the headline in the spoof newspaper for the show is purely coincidental, what made somebody invent it and why did they use it? If it does deliberately relate to the real world story, why was it included as an Easter egg? For want of a more appropriate term.
I think I've just fallen down a rabbit hole, here.
