Too Many Spirits is an innovative concept that itself is praiseworthy, and obviously one the folks at Watcher Entertainment knew would be a hit from the get-go. In celebration of Halloween, you need to get Ryan and Shane together to chew over something spooky. But Too Many Spirits goes the extra mile and tries to include Watcher's other founder, chef Steven Lim. Have him prepare the drinks, and bingo! You have Too Many Spirits. In the show's four episodes, shot over a single night, Ryan and Shane read stories submitted by their viewers.
Truth be told, almost all the stories submitted to Too Many Spirits are awful. The show isn't scary - it's just funny, but it's very funny. At the very first episode, Steven's spirits seem to be getting to Ryan and Shane, to the point where I'm not sure if it's the alcohol or if they're just having too much fun with these stories. By the third episode, the results of the last two drinks are noticeable almost immediately: They laugh at stories constantly to start with, including at Twitter names. The fourth episode is even more overboard with the hysterical laughing.
Sure, there are some criticisms one can make of the show. The "Log Bros" segments aren't as fun as the Watcher crew think it is, and the beginnings of each episode kind of drag, but oh well - it's a romp, and laugh-out-loud hilarious.
