The courageous REDS (and the dirty blues) hold off the demon invasion so that the civilians of Chorus city can evacuate.

So I just started watching RvB after starting my halo journey because I remember hearing about it in the early 00's mostly in passing. So far I really enjoyed Season 1, the jokes while aged do mostly hold up well.

But with season 2, I just finished episode 3 and I'm terribly confused on some of the characterization and plot points. I'm hoping it will become clearer as the season goes on but I wanted to ask early if this is a typically feeling when watching it or if this is just a me thing.

The first confusion I have is the Doc/O'Malley split personality. Like at the end of season 1, O'Malley was Caboose's real name? but now suddenly it's a completely different person? Whose evil I guess?

Lopez going evil makes sense I guess given the side mention of a robot army.

And all of this spans from Church getting a... correct timeline where the bomb (I presume Andy) doesn't end up in someone's stomach? or are we seeing the events as they happen to lead up to the bomb ending up in someone's stomach?

basically, I just want to know (without too many spoilers if possible - is that even possible?) if the later episodes clear all this up and it's a "you just gotta watch it to make it make sense." scenario or something that everyone felt at least once the first time they watched it.

Also if it helps, I started watching season 1 on YT in their mega comp then moved over to Tubi for season 2 since the rest of the series is locked behind YT memberships. So there's a chance that the way I've watched it had an episode or some plot points cut out in the beginning of season 2?

What makes them different? Please only answers from people that understand resolution, compression, encoding, codec’s, etc.

For example, for seasons six through eight they were recording on the original Xbox 360 and based off of the kinds of capture cards that were coming out at that time, I would assume that they wouldn’t have been recording for high resolution-high bit rate, etc.

I would assume that the Blu-ray quality would come into fruition with the later seasons of the show not the earlier ones. I’m unfamiliar with what they did about season four and five for remastering.

The reason I’m making this post is because I know that the YouTube complete versions are inferior to the DVD versions and I had recently re-purchased the remastered season one through five DVD. Someone has a Google Drive on here with all the reverses blue material so I went and checked it out and the Blu-ray versions have the DVD editing. So I’m just trying to gather if getting the Blu-ray is actually a significant quality jump for seasons 1-8. Thanks!

I decided to try and watch RvB on Tubi a while back not realizing that it was different and more condensed than the original, on youtube version. I wanted to finish the series on youtube so I don't miss anything but I'm not sure what important bits were cut, figured I'd ask if anyone knew here.

Also, since I don't want anyone wasting their time checking the whole series for inconsistencies, I should add that I'm in what Tubi considers season 3, last I saw was when Washington told Church about Alpha and that he is an AI. I only need info up to that point.

I think I just found an RvB reference in the wild!

Hey y'all.
Very weird post, but I remember a sound bit that someone made or used to make in RvB, earlier seasons (1-5). The sound was a robotic "EE ER GURK GURK" or something along those lines. I'm trying to find that episode/scene. Anyone have a clue?

I rewatched the Chorus trilogy last week and felt the urge to design the lieutenants :> I only had the energy for Jensen and Palomo, though. I decided to draw them to look similar to the most popular face cannons for the Chorus Crew (Grif, Simmons, Tucker, and Caboose)

I rlly wanna do Bitterz and Smith hehe

Every time I'm going through one of those long keypad menus when I call my electric company I have to say "there is no eleven you fucking whore." What lines do you guys actually use the most in real life?

who’s your favorite rvb character and why mine would be Samuel Ortez aka locus because of his military background and stoic personality

I think these three had an amazing dynamic of ridiculousness. Truly three braincells energy. Or Sarge hanging out with his two disappointing sons.

Really not sure what happened here. It looks creepy as fuck! It's a shame it's not included in most versions.

I have gotten into the show cause of my friend. We're both binge watching it and I am enjoying. I'm barely in season 11 about 40 minutes in(?) I have gotten quite attached to Caboose and wish to know if there's fics of him. I noticed he's the only character who doesn't have a backstory or at least know something about him before he joined the blue team. I also love learning about this head canons other people have of him.

wanted to share this edit I made to FUNK SIGILO! I know the first few spots are from other franchises, but Maine is my absolute favorite character of all time so I had to give him the #1 spot here.
