After Stoick disowned him, Hiccup and Astrid stole a Night Fury and vanished without a trace. Seven years later, they're back in Berk — with their toddler in tow.

What do you think of the Channel Awesome ordeal?

It’s been weird to watch that from afar.

I never was a big fan of That Guy With Glasses. It’s long enough ago that my memory is hazy, but I remember him being very obnoxious in the early days of Youtube. He liked to crank out huge volumes of content and I remember there being a huge upset when Youtube started implementing copyright strikes.

I never really liked that, or the empire built from that. He was loud, picky, and obnoxious, which sort of became the standard for so many to follow in his wake. He took the AVGN “what were they THINKING?” logic and blew it out so hard it wrapped around and became annoying, in an era where AVGN still seemed fresh, cool, and interesting.

I’m aware that he “quit” some years ago, or at least retired his “character,” but still. He was the face of all that stuff for many many years, and while it would be strong to say that I hated him, I really didn’t care to ingest any of his stuff.

Seeing all of that implode is… I don’t want to say it’s enjoyable, because I know there were legitimately good people over there. And I don’t want to say it’s funny, either, because some of the stories that have come out of that thing are genuinely troubling.

Some of the stories to come out of that are funny, though. It’s impressive how inept the people running that show were. Sometimes it really feels like the people least qualified to be famous are the ones that always somehow end up famous. Like the time one spends being thoughtful and respectful gets wasted by idiots who rush to get there first and are rewarded for their stupidity.

At the very least, I do not mourn any part of Channel Awesome’s death. I’m confident the people who used to have shows under that banner will do better without it.
