Not content with dominating videogame-related web comics and then “reality tv” withPenny Arcade: The Series, the folks at Penny Arcade have launchedPATV. Yes, as in “Penny Arcade Television,” just in case you’re having trouble with letters.
Launched todayLaunched such a long time ago that I was a fool for originally thinking that it launched today (via a press release dated June 05, 2025), the initial programming includes the aforementionedPenny Arcade: The Series, along withThe 4th Panel(which looks at the Penny Arcade creative process), andBlamimations with Kris & Scott. The latter is a new series of original animated shorts by Kris Straub ofchainsawsuit.comand Scott Kurtz ofPVPonline.com; new episodes will be added monthly.
As for future content, Penny Arcade’s Robert Khoo explains they’ll be adding more as time goes on, so watch your asses!
“We’ll occasionally pick up more shows we think are funny, relevant, or a combination of the two, which we’re calling frelevant,” said Khoo, making up a word. “These three are just the beginning. Hold on to your hats.”
Awesome, because I didn’t have plenty of other awesome things to occupy our time on the Internet. Now my cats will never get fed.
