Webcomic giant Penny Arcade started their own reality series about webcartoonists called Strip Search. I actually applied and made it to the final 40 before their last cut for the show. Even without that, I highly recommend it. It’s the first reality show I’ve ever seen where the contestants all have equal parts integrity and talent, and the show is designed with their benefit in mind, not their humiliation. It’s an interesting look into what reality TV can look like if it’s done in good conscience. I’ve been loving it so much, I made a fan animation, which you can watch here!

THIS IS SO COOOOOL!

Strip Search, Season 1, Episode 15 – The Merch

I was taking notes during this episode.  I’m redesigning my booth this year, and while I’m happy with my layout for SPACE as a starting point, I know that I can still make improvements.

The next elimination is going to be really tough, because I really like both artists! :(

Strip Search, Season 1, Episode 14 – Game On

I was up late making comics last night, so I thought I would be awake when this episode dropped! Looks like they were going to keep us waiting a little longer than usual, so I admitted defeat and went to bed. :)

I thought the clay challenge looked like a lot of fun!  Amy’s confessions made me like her a lot more than I already did, and kind of highlight what reality TV does to the people on these kinds of game shows.  You see the same burnout and fatigue on Project Runway.

Also the AWWWWW moments between Amy’s and Erika’s talking heads was super sweet. :)

Next time: convention booth design!  I’m looking forward to that episode.

Strip Search, Season 1, Episode 11 – Street Art

I can’t think of what would go in a Pineapple Maki cocktail at the moment, but I must insist there be a tiny paper parasol involved.

SPECULATION:  From the previews, it looks like the elimination challenge might be about character design!
