GYMDK: The Games That You Might Don't Know But That Are Still Pretty Damn Sweet! Sweet!
GYMDK is a wacky review show, hosted, written and directed by Benzaie. The goal is to give a quick, funny and wacky (but still informative) introduction to a Game most people might not Know about. Rumours are that the Title is broken because Benzaie can't speak proper english.

The videos are mostly around 5 minutes long but are always fast paced. Benzaie always puts on costumes for the show, trying to be relevant to the game he reviews, but the 0$ budget only allows him to get ridiculously cheap outfits (the Kabuki Quantum Fighter Costume is made out of his grand ma's pilow cases). The Show always starts with a short theme song (differs since Season 2) and ends with a preview of the next game to be reviewed. It also features some quick recuring segment to keep the feel of a serie like "ALMOST UNALTERED MEMORIES", "2 WORDS" or "Laughing at a French Guy's Accent"...

The show first appeared on the blog section early on the site and became one of the first picks by Mike Michaud aka admin to become one of the full feature of the site. This was the first show Benzaie came up with. It was mostly inspired by the Angry Video Game Nerd and The Nostalgia Critic shows. The First episode " METAMORPHIC FORCE " appeared on YouTube by the end of june and by the time he got featured on TGWTG, benzaie already had released 7 Reviews.

The first to air officialy on TGWTG as a real feature was the POWER SLAVE review...

After episode 11 DOUBLE DRAGON, Benzaie moved in UK the 6th of september and it marked the end of the first Season, considering the change of background Benzaie thought it would be better to also change the feel of the show a little bit, with a new Theme Song to begin with, done by TGWTG user LITE
