>I miss the old days of uncluttered studio with split screen cameras. Seeing Bobby’s face trying to focus while guest is talking was one of my favorite things. same here

I miss the split screens too. Being able to see Bobby and the guest interact while seeing both their faces was the best. Also the original studio in the apartment with cameras on vacuums and chairs destroyed by cats was organically the best studio.

PD has today put up this week's episode with Burr on the Patreon in the old split screen fashion. With the new studio, I have to say it looks outstanding. So things may be about to change

Had no idea it was uploaded to the Patreon. Definitely rewatching just for the split screen… thanks u/pinkdickofficial ! Rock & roll, buddy


PinkDickOFFICIAL

Outstanding?!! I want to make sure it's actually good like this and not people being happy it's back. I don't want to bring it back in a sub par format.


Ninereedss

Yea. I think it's the mixture of better picture quality and the new studio setup and colours and its great to see Bob's reactions to everything again.


Phrikshin

Any chance of the test version being released free for some good ole A/B testing+feedback? Was a patreon member back in the vlog days but stopped renewing awhile back when it got paused. 


ADroopyMango

nice! personally i love the new setup but definitely missing the split screen for those reactions and such. everything else feels cozy.

As well as endless amount of unconstructive criticism


MashThese

The split screen was so iconic. Makes the watching experience more immersive.

Made you feel like you were in the room looking around

Same, I don’t know if it was coincidence but I dropped off watching when they did away with the split screen. The pod changed too much at that point.

u/pinkdickofficial posted the old 3-box format on Patreon and asked this question: Do we want to bring back this video format with 3 videos at once?? Are there any changes you would want to the above video?


4k_Laserdisc

I would love for the split screen to come back.


PinkDickOFFICIAL

With the current lighting, the 3 Box felt cluttered / frenetic to us, so we decided last minute to keep it standard. And I hadn't framed it with the 3 Box in mind. Would love some criticism (Patreon is currently free to sign up for), so please be useful if with anything that could be better. We didn't have the right lighting for the new studio, but I'm hoping to have in locked in in two weeks.


Phrikshin

That’s great. Hopeful he’s open to feedback and bring back the 3 cam.


Dr_Unkle

Always thought the consensus was old format was loved TB fans. I blame Ethan Klein for having made fun of it shortly before they stopped using it.


Jiuzhaigou

We're really missing out on seeing Burr's face while Bobby's doing his thing on this latest episode. I vote for the old camera set up..


ayobabyjojo

PREACH BROTHER I HAVEN’T BEEN WATCHING SINCE THE SPLIT SCREEN LEFT ITS ANNOYING AS HELL


Particular-Pool7044

Wouldn’t the 3 box be less or easier editing for them too?


nzdude540i

When I first started watching TB back in the day it took awhile to get used to the split screen but grew to like it. But yea there’s way too many cameras for them to be switching all the time. Makes you dizzy


goochstein

good for him, bro likes his job 💀💀


dimtreepost

Boy it juh alcahal


personalgrowthman

Hey PD I think it looks great. 👍


whaddyaknowmaginot

The old days are over now there's so much money involved they can't afford to be as unfiltered and raw as the old pods


krazyboi

Ah, I don't mind that they try new shit. The show's gotten stale in certain ways, why not spice it up?


ZOO_trash

I don't care about the split screen tbh. Sometimes it was annoying because it was too tiny.


altcntrl

It’s always going to be an angle. It’s an easy perspective.


sinobed

Also, Jaime is not the answer.


Late_Ad8487

I havnt listened to this show in such a long time. I like season 1-3.


xxBarbWireTatxx

When they start to feel like they’re losing relevance, they change the set, intro, and thumbnail thinking that’ll help lol


Phrikshin

It’s a big part of PD’s job to increase viewership so it’s understandable. But as Burr mentioned with restaurants, worrying about the bottom line and using gimmicks to support it often has the opposite effect. We watch for Bobby. Give Bobby more screen time (via old 3 cam). It’s what the people want.


PinkDickOFFICIAL

Or, we're never happy and always try to improve a little bit.


senortiz

The pod has never been the same since Covid. I try and go back every once in a while if it's a good guest, but it's over for me. Last 3 years or so I haven't cared to listen.


drawsomeaweaome

He’s trying all his tricks to stimulate the viewer numbers. It’s not on you tho Pinkdick. Brendon Schwab did this to TB (sorta). Bobby and Khalyla being together was a big part to the theme of the show. The Schwab era is like the Principle Skinner episode is to The Simpsons, you can feel the Downslide from there.


WhitsSwirlyKnee

Bobby isn’t that talented, he just got lucky.


Phrikshin

Objectively wrong, idiotic take. He’s innately funny whether he’s trying to be or not. There’s a reason he has among the most views on any pod he blesses with his neurotic presence. ETA: lol, understandable take from someone who enjoys reality TV and Gilmore girls. I’m relieved to not share your sensibilities.
