The audio is really annoying me D: I hope they have a fix soon. It's like super hot and clipping. What happened?! Everything was so perfect BibleThump

Holy hell, that was one of my favorites yet. Love that deep forest in the mist!

...and another black canvas? Stop Bob, I can't take all this hype!

I just got "in" to twitch. Can I ask, what the hell is the point of the chat if it scrolls so freaking fast you can't read any of it?

It's basically the nature when you have literally thousands of people chatting at the same time. On the other hand it does help practice your speed reading :p

The YouTube version of the same episode seems okay, without the weird distortion at the bottom. Maybe it's some sort of stream setup problem.

I tried tweeting to @twitch but who knows if it will get read. I hate to be a nuisance but audio problems/quality really bugs me. I'm super sensitive to it haha. I'll make an exception for Bob though ;)

you know at a live event where you can kinda read the mood of the crowd even if you can't understand what any individual is actually saying?

that's twitch chat for big streams

^^ I used to hate twitch chat, but after hundreds of hours of dota streams I kind of realized how well it captures that kind of raw emotionality of a crowd at a live sporting event. I don't know how much of that was on purpose and how much was just a 'well streaming sites have chats' thing, but it works.

Of course the surreal outcome of twitch chat + Bob Ross is just a happy little accident.

It's also peak meme darwinism, only the dankest survive.

As someone else posted in this thread, I found this show boring as a kid but still watched for some reason.

It is amazing to watch now. Love it.

Mr. Ross would have been such a cool art teacher to have growing up. Did he ever teach? or is this show his version of teaching?
 
Love the sense of scale of this one, something about the contrast between the background trees and the foothill mountains make it really stand out, even if isn't as detailed as some other of his works, I find impressive that despite the simplicity it still manages to give that illusion.
