l watched a few YouTube episodes of Table Talk and found it a rather fun and unique concept idea for a show. Basically, it gathers a few online personalities together to play a popular tabletop board game and jazzes it up with witty conversation and even throws in hints about the game.
Hosted by Wil Wheaton (Wesley Crusher from Star Trek: The Next Generation who has found new life as an author and web celebrity), Table Top no doubt has a limited commercial appeal among American people. But I’m sure it has a niche audience that it appeals to.
Watching it, I couldn’t help wonder what it would be like with APBA as the game du jour. I imagine for most of us, we would find it quite hilarious. I chose to link the “Settlers of Catan” episode above. Towards the end, the losers of the game blamed their dice for their loss and virtually burned them.
I thought, “Hmm, we APBA players NEVER blame our dice!”.
