Come on you guys – Stacy is really cute and I liked her sense of humor when she dealt with the 9 year old monkeys commenting in here.
Despite that the show is about the news, even if you can’t concentrate on them after seeing a girl :P

You are getting better, girl, and you took the negative comments with some irony.

That was pretty good, keep going.

I’m tired of coming up with constructive criticism, you guys don’t seem to learn anything.

The show was awful, the girl ugly, the accent horrendous, the humour absent, the content shallow. Just give up already. I know I will.

Your show is an insult to anyone with half a brain.

you need to improve the sound, the mic is tinny with too much echo. time to invest me thinks!

HAHAHAHA! I love Stacy! :P Stacia is funny too. At least I don’t go nuts from the accent with this hostess.

HIlarious how some comments think there are two different people hosting. :D :D

I personally enjoyed the show, it was a decent piece, and it’s good to see that the general quality does not degrade, but actually goes the opposite way. For an amateur show, I’m giving it two thumbs up, and I DON’T imagine it going the ‘pro’ way. Stay indie, stay yourselves!

The Stacy switch was’t bad, but I found it unnecessarily distracting. It could work if put in a different environment, though, like in the ‘out’n'live’ episode from November.
Keep up the good work, guys, looking forwards to the next episode!

I liked the show, and I like Stacia just fine. And I’m not even looking for a t-shirt.

@ Kodabar

“We know it has to be a girl and one who is fairly good looking at least”

WTF, did you work on MTV or some other porn show?

No matter, we do not know or accept the BS dogma that bimbo-tits are primordial upfront … I for one would prefer the ElephantMan sans headsack, if possessed of IQ > 70, some spark of character/wit and presenting CONTENT worth saving.

Otherwise, why not just have a pair of CGI animated tits coupled to a voice synthisizer present this drivel in 3D?

I thought the hate last time was harsh. Although the Stacy character is a little weird but its all for fun ‘ey. Keep up the good reporting!

“You don’t sound clever or funny reading out negative comments and attempting to ridicule them. It makes you sound weak and defensive.”

Thats so true, don’t do that.

Other than that, the show was better this time.

Yeah, the show’s okay, but the host is weak. Her speech cadence and intonation is a little odd which makes it hard for me to concentrate on what she is saying.

I’ve produced and directed for TV and cinema and I wouldn’t have picked her. Sorry.

We know it has to be a girl and one who is fairly good looking at least, but her voice hampers her delivery. The Stacy comedy element is pretty weak too. The characterisation is okay, but a good script for that part will sustain a weak character. Unfortunately, her scripting is weak so it shows up how empty the character is.

I suspect the script is written in one session without any major redrafting and that’s why it suffers. Writing a half-decent script (even for a light factual show like this) is actually quite hard. The script should be rewritten a few times before air to iron out the problems. Comedy is a lot harder than purely factual matters, so good comedy scripts need a lot of working and reworking to make them good. Someone suggesting that “Hey, I can like do a silly voice and pretend to be like an idiot or something.” just isn’t enough.

Hopefully this comment won’t be read out on the show with a retort like “Your comment is boring.” You don’t sound clever or funny reading out negative comments and attempting to ridicule them. It makes you sound weak and defensive.

Much better than the previous, but as many others have said, don’t do the “Stacy” switch in the future.

I have being downloading every episode on miro after Stacia came on the air, she a nice personality and a cuter face, she brings sunshine to torrent freak as well as knowledge and experience. She should be the new face of torrent freak. and she looks well taken of.
