Year One refers to the celebration TGWTG.com had in April 2009 for their birthday. Instead of it being one day, several videos were made commemorating the occasion with a larger event to follow.

Summary

TGWTG Team Brawl

The video starts off with Nostalgia Critic walking along a Chicago skyscraper singing about how much of a beautiful day it is. His bliss is shattered when The Nerd is walking along the same skyscraper playing his DS. The two are more than willing to pick up where they left off as they chase each other through the city streets, into a building, up an elevator and into a room where the fight begins. However it isn't long before The Nostalgia Chick joins in, then Kyle Justin, and soon different team members are appearing out of the woodwork! However when Benzaie arrives things really get heated, Ben betrays Doug saying that he is a gamer first and a friend second. As other team members join in the rift grows stronger to the point where everyone must make a split between critics and gamers. It is at this time that the Nerd makes a fantastic motivational speech, but Doug alas comes up with only examples from films. Then the epic battle begins with commentary from the Transmission Awesome Boyz (and The Cat) to accompany the epicness. Things reach a boiling point though when Super Mecha Death Christ 2000 4.0 Beta enters the fray and battles Donkey Kong Jesus which sets off an atomic bomb explosion. The Nerd and the Critic eventually realize that there was no point in fighting in the first place thanks to Ask That Guy and agree to team up for a crossover review. More videos followed!
