Humored TV - Delivers Laughs at Someone Else's Expense


Humored TV is a comedy site that purports to be all about comedy & humour. They have lots of videos that looked snagged from YouTube, and the regular viral videos that have made their rounds. Some of the comedy videos on the site are really obscure clips that seem to be from small countries abroad that have a quirky sense of humor. There are a lot of comedy videos on here, a good deal of which are prank or slap stick and not entirely funny to me at least.

Asides from that the regular funny videos you'd expect on one of those just for laughs shows, there's a good deal of bloopers videos and just pure insane stunts gone awry. Peering through a few you get the feeling that there is no lack of idiocy in this world, with more and more people trying stupid acts of bravery or not well thought out stunts. But hey I'm here to talk about videos, not the content of them!

Humor Videos is an interesting site, but the lack of categories makes it hard to navigate. There is plenty of funny videos to find on the site but it's a daunting task to watch some of them and go through page by page. If you like to laugh, you'll probably find a lot here - especially if you like slap stick (you know people getting hit in the crotch, igniting on fire from idiotically trying to light their hair or flatulence). Within the depths of this mega comedy video site are some golden gems but you really have to dig for them in lieu of categories. The complete absence of ads makes this worth checking out - if only more would embrace a similar mentality I wouldn't have need for a suite of popup blocking software.

Anime Seed

Anime Seed is yet another anime episode streaming site. There's just way too many of these sites, but I guess they service a big need for anime. The site is quite nice looking, ads on the pages are quite sparse and the design looks great. The biggest problem is that it loads a chatroom widget on every single page which is both annoying and slow to the overall page load. There were 100 people in the chatroom, each time someone talks it makes a little "bing" noise, with just a quarter of those people talking it was fairly noisy and annoying.

Now while the main page is clean, the episodes are not. Each episode launches in a popup which again is a really annoying way to show episodes since you can't open them in a new tab. On top of that they have a full page ad that displays over the site every single time an episode is launched. This is highly annoying and most of the videos appear to be hosted on megavideo which has a time limit on how long you can watch for free. The site would be usable if not for the full frame ad appearing every pageload, coupled with the popup and chat widget.

Anime Seed had the potential of being a good site, but the site really falters in that they load a chat widget on all pages except for episode pages. On top of that they made a very bad decision in having an ad that appears over episode pages for each episode viewed. This can make it extremely confusing to differentiate the ad from the episode site. Moreover making the episode pages pop up can be quite tedious as if you were to try and load multiple episodes for whatever reason you would end up having the popup reload with the new page each time you launched a new episode (it recycles the old popup so forget about buffering another episode as you watch one). Several of the episodes we tested worked, only a few were broken - it's an otherwise good site wrecked by the ads and major annoyances of the site.
