Table 8 Goes Viral w/ “Marvel’s The Avengers (on a budget)”

Hey folks,

As most of you know, I am part of Table 8 Productions. We recently released our fourth “On A Budget” video, Marvel’s The Avengers, and it went viral in less than a week! I play Hawkeye.
Here are just some of the sites it has been on:
Funny or Die Homepage, College Humor, The Huffington Post, G4, Tweeted by Damon Lindelof (Creator of LOST), Reddit, IGN, Attack of the Show, Fark, Kotatu, Jest, The Daily What and many, many more.
So, instead of a podcast this week, we are celebrating. Watch it, spread it and enjoy! It feels pretty darn good.
