Not his first appearance in a Bosman written GT skit though.

Plenty of Bosman memes up at GTsquad.com. Also make sure to sign the yearbook before they send it off to the crew.

 

[ShroudOfFate]

Has Kyle said anything at all about continuing the show elsewhere?

 

[LycanXIII]

He was going to talk to Defy about the rights to the name.

 

[Vinc]

He was going to talk to Defy about the rights to the name.

Wait. When did he say that?

 

[kennyamr]

Wait. When did he say that?

He said this during a podcast he was invited to a few days after him leaving GT.
Nothing confirmed but he will try.

 

[Gormless Noodle]

Wait. When did he say that?

This one in particular if you're interested, from Total Biscuit.

 

[Mariolee]

I need my Kyle Bosman fix and am not really getting it from thay podcast. Hope he lands on him and the rest of GT land on their feet soon.

The Final Bosman - Episode 131 - The Canon Ending

He was unable to keep the rights/name apparently so he wrote this.

 

[adj_noun]

oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh

 

[Raxus]

Oh my god @ "You know, Liquid, we really are The Final Bosmans."

dead

 

[adj_noun]

Kyle salutes the audience, does a great job not crying.

;______________;

 

[angelic]

What could defy possibly need with the name - bring in a substitute bosman? Ridiculous.

My thoughts exactly. What a fucking scumbag move, jesus

I guess he's got options.

Man, I hope we can see kyle behind a camera again

Fucking Defy Media

 

[Elfforkusu]

Like I said. Call it 'The Last Bosman'.

 

[Plum]

Copyrights are like Smaug's gold. A lot of them are dormant and the company who owns them have no intention of ever using them, but damn if they won't fight tooth and nail to keep them no matter how small and petty.

 

[Deadman]

Really sucks that he cant keep the show.

Love the script though.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

That script was fantastic. Kyle, if you're reading this, great job!

 

[Sesha]

The Last Bosman
The Secret Bosman
The Super Bosman

Losing Final Bosman sucks, but it's only a name. That said, what are Defy Media even gonna do with the "Final Bosman" name? Seems completely unnecessary.

 

[Shredderi]

Copyrights are like Smaug's gold. A lot of them are dormant and the company who owns them have no intention of ever using them, but damn if they won't fight tooth and nail to keep them no matter how small and petty.

This. Why the fuck do you want to retain the rights to the fucking name when you fired the guy who the show was about? I mean "Bosman" is his actual name.

 

[Riptwo]

This is Grant Morrison's finest work yet

 

[Wiggy]

The Escapist let Jim Sterling keep Jimquisition right? Or did he always have ownership? Anyway, it seems shitty from Defy, but that was a great read and I cant wait to see what Kyle does next.

 

[Japanmanx3]

"We really are the Final Bosman's."

He couldn't keep the rights to his own name?

They did. Dunno if he always had ownership. While Moviebob was not able to keep Escape to the Movies or Big Picture.

 

[KidGalactus]

Corporate horseshit.

 

[Tom Nook Sawyer]

He couldn't keep the rights to his own name?

"The Final" isn't part of his name

 

[Fantastapotamus]

You're the Man now, Bos.

I hate myself.

They did. Dunno if he always had ownership. While Moviebob was not able to keep Escape to the Movies or Big Picture.

"The Jimquisition" was a thing before he worked for the Escapist. That might be the reason for that.

 

[AlucardGV]

He couldn't keep the rights to his own name?

the name of his show. he can call a new show whatever he wants but "the final bosman"

He can't keep the name Final Bosman? A name that is HALF IS OWN NAME!?

 

[iNvid02]

what about

the likeable GT guy show

 

[Sesha]

The Awkward but Likable Bosman Specialty Hour

What about Final Bets?

Defy Media is just the worst. The script is hilarious though.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

What about Final Bets?

I would imagine they won't be able to use any names. Companies like Defy are....weird.

I remember Rorie from Giantbomb once told the story that Ziff Davis (not quite the same thing, but close enough) asked him to sign a contract wherein he would loose the rights to his own name in perpetuity

Okay, sure, bye.

Absolutely brilliant, bravo Mr. Bosman.

Really sucks about losing the name.

This is a great ending, ties up all the loose ends left hanging (that I can remember anyways, the Final Bosman lore was pretty complex). However, there is one burning question which remains unanswered.

What's the German folk music that plays?

I imagine that something along the lines of this plays, but I suppose it is all just up to personal interpretation by the reader. That is of course, until Bosman films this final episode after he becomes wildly successful and buys the rights to his show from Defy.

 

[Aroll]

Final Bosman without the "The" is different, isn't it? Either way, there are plenty of names for a new show I would assume. I mean, this is a new beginning, might as well refresh and remove the chains.
