I love are you serious. I loved WCW, but I'm fine with them bashing it like they do. It's funny. Most of it's deserved. They pick on themselves too, so it's all good. I noticed all the clips in the opener are from WWE, I think, if that counts for anything.
Puppet H with a Dennis Stamp tribute was hilarious. Great episode this week.

Kanyon's bump into the pool was so overdone. I vaguely remember those Raven/Sandman vignettes in WCW, what an odd way to debut Hardcore Hak.
Puppet H not being booked is hilarious.
Again, it is not anti-WCW. It is not like they are showing Sting/Flair Clash of the Champions and saying, "oh, look how stupid this is" or making fart noises to it. There just happened to be tons and tons of crap in WCW during the Jim Herd and Vince Russo years, plus a lot of stuff from other booker's reigns, too. I'm glad they are showing those things because a lot of it I've never seen before. And as I pointed out in the other thread, when you break down how much footage of WWF/E they have used vs. WCW footage, over all the episodes, they have overwhelmingly (except for this week) used more WWE produced crap than WCW.

Honestly, I'm shocked that they are willing to poke fun at their current talent, like R-Truth this week and The Miz in the past.
Besides, WCW kind of deserves it for that stupid Sandman segment.

This is the exact same thing that I have said about AYS. The bulk of the jokes stem from the Herd and Russo (like the Maestro) days. You don't see them spoofing anything that was, say, Sting/Flair or Flair/Vader. You would more likely see them spoof "Lost in Cleveland" or "Roddy Piper on Alcatraz"... things that should be made fun of. I know Glacier was an example this week, but the WWE has always bashed Glacier.

They've added a ton of Paul Heyman stuff to the channel now, including the ECW One Night Stand "Matt Freakin' Hardy" Promo. No Invasion stuff though from the looks of it.

I still can't believe WWE is showing footage of New Jack on their Youtube page. They have a few matches of The Gangstas up on their videos and I was watching this one.....what do you people think of the WWE's Edit for the Gangstas theme?

About time Rosie v Trump showed up on this. I barely remember when that was an actual thing.
Hope Obama v Hilary show up on this soon, just for the awesome job that Bill does at heel managing.

Well there goes the theory that "Are you Serious" is an anti-WCW show.

Yes! I'm glad they showed that clip of Josh getting possessed by the Undertaker. I had tweeted that one to them months ago.

I wonder why WWE removed their ECW Gangstas videos

Vladimir sighting in the With My Baby Tonight clip!
I kept wondering if they'd mention something about Donald Trump being the guy that trained the current WWE champion.
