Video gaming has become a popular sport and VGHS is dedicated to teaching gaming. Brian D (Josh Blaylock) comes from a poor background. He gains public popularity by killing arrogant star The Law and is invited to VGHS. He makes friends with fellow new student Ki Swan (Ellary Porterfield) and roommate Ted Wong (Jimmy Wong). He falls for leading player Jenny Matrix (Johanna Braddy) who has a troubled relationship with her teacher/mother (Cynthia Watros).I found this on Netflix and with the high rating, I decided to take a shot. The first two seasons left me a little concerned. The limited budget makes the production lesser quality. It has a young teen TV show value. The game playing needs a little more imagination. The four lead actors could be better and quite frankly, Blaylock is not hot enough to be the hot nerd lead. It's silly but it's not silly enough to be fun. During the third season, the show decides to take risks with some high concept episodes. It unleashes the deadpan awkward gawkiness of Porterfield. The secondary pairing actually gains parity with the leads. It finally finds its voice but it ends right after. It's too bad that it could not get there earlier.

It might have some high school undertones, but it's a fun ride into the insight of a different kind of world where gaming isn't just the norm, it's LIFE. I wasn't super satisfied with the ending, but I'm a sucker for that stuff, but overall they present a good overall message, to follow your dreams 4/5

You need to make more episodes add more to the story it was just getting really good and its got everything any true gamer wants in a TV show PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! Main reason i say make more is because most people judged the show by the beginning and did watch at least 3 to 5 episodes because i will admit the beginning was kinda boring and slow but as it goes on it becomes a great show and makes you not want to stop watching it!

So I first watched this on Netflix. The plot seemed corny, but I like gaming and checked it out. I immediately recognized the kid from Warehouse 13 and was enjoying the in-game action scenes. . .when that Law kid showed up. I seriously wanted someone to shoot him in the head and camp the respawn. I don't know who told him to or let him act that way, but somebody should have told him to stop cause he ruined the whole show. I barely made it to the failed pub stomp (or whatever it was called) before I backspaced and gave the show a 1 star with a bad review.Recently, I gave the show another chance. It was VERY hard to swallow the "spazz acting" from the Law and other minor characters. I called it quits like twice but fortunately I made it through the first episode. I'm pretty hooked on the show now especially since some other really great characters/actors showed up. I would recommend it especially if you like gaming/FPS. It's fun watching the PC gaming cause it reminds me of my first year of college. (ah Urban Terror).p.s That offline beat-down BrianD gave the Law. . .so satisfying. Watched it 5 times. XD
