Bruce Greene leaving Funhaus (Lawrence Sonntag leaving as well)
- Thread starter Fat4all
- Start date
Wow Lawrence is leaving as well. Hopefully the Willems, Adam, Alanah, Jon and the rest can hold the fort.
Adam has been doing the Worst Games Ever series with James and Elyse, last episode was a day or two ago
While I think Adam Elise and James can carry on fine I am worried about them burning out they are the only 3 core personalities now. Other been stepping up alot lately but begs the questions if its out of want or necessity. Recall Alanah saying she was hired as a producer and ideally wanted to be behind the camera more?
Ah gotcha, maybe I need to expand outside of Inside Gaming Daily lol
Ever since Alanah jumped on I noticed an uptick in videos with Jon, John, Jacob and Ryan.
I dunno if she was behind that push, but it's nice to see more of the behind the scenes people in vids
That hurts... I've been watching these guys for so many years now (I literally can't remember when I got into Inside Gaming... kinda weird to think for how long they've been in my daily routine), it sucks to see this happening. It hurt to see Bruce go and it hurts to see Lawrence go as well. Gonna miss him bringing up those old PC games and anime garbage that only he could find. Shit sucks man... wish him the best.
Makes me wonder if alanah will start Focus on a YouTube channel soon if funhaus shutters and start making the big bucks. She can be a super mega star if she starts w/in the next 1/2 years
Alanah always seemed like the third wheel to me. I stopped watching after Bruce left, but now Lawrence makes it all seem weird.
Sad news but the channel is still my favourite and I doubt that's going to change anytime soon. Hell, one of my favourite videos from this year is Alanah, Rahul, Jacob and Jon playing Sundered. They've cultivated a really nice selection of personalities and matched them with a great format.
Anyway, good luck to Lawerence. I always felt he was destined for something greater.

Yeah, I think the only thing that would make me think that would be losing James and Elyse. Those two would be just too big a void to make up for if it happened.

I'd love to know what's happening behind the scenes, Rooster Teeth has been bleeding major talent for the past couple of years.
i think Don Casanova still works for both Funhaus and Easy Allies at the same time
fun fact
Fortunately it should be harder for something like that to happen to EZA as each of the allies are equal owners of it.
And that's the whole issue, I guess they (Bruce and Lawrence) noticed their own personal brand can get them more than to be tied down to being an "employee"
Their chemistry at Funhaus was great. I watched Bruce's stream and it's just not the same. It's a shame, but they should do their own thing if that's what they want. Super Best Friends disbanded a year ago and now two people left Funhaus as I was starting to get into the channel.
Saw this coming the moment he announced that he would be taking a break from Inside Gaming Daily a few weeks back. Haven't really watched FH in a while, but did keep up with IG, and as much as the kids are trying, I do miss the elders. Anyway, wish him the best.
I haven't really kept up with Funhaus, but Arizona Circle was great.
I can't believe I laughed so much at this skit

Nothing lasts forever. :/
I've enjoyed the new Inside Gaming and I think Lawrence left IG in good hands with the new crew. I hope he does well on his next adventure.

It definitely sucks in the here and now, but I'm interested to see what he does next (after the period of streaming he announced). I just hope the current crew continues to stick around for a while. I like that they all seem to have good on-screen chemistry (including the team that are editors first and foremost). Ryan especially has been killing it in the content he's been in recently, which had made Bruce's departure a bit easier to get used to for sure.
Bruce, Adam and James creating Funhaus while it was tied to Rooster Teeth seems like a grave mistake, looking back at things. They obviously won't say anything but something must be up over there, or at least serious burnout.
I've been watching Funhaus all the way back to when they were Inside Gaming with Joel. But once Bruce left, I stopped watching. He was the heart of the show. Now with Lawrence gone, I expect the rest of the team to disband by the end of next year.

All this news is making me butthurt. But I wish them the best. Also this is the final production week for Cow Chop and that also has me feeling in the dumps. Funhaus and Cow Chop imo are the best channels under Rooster Teeth and it sucks seeing these talented people go but I'm still optimistic about their individual future.
When Bruce mentioned on the last Dude Soup he was in that none of them own any part of Funhaus, I was shocked. They are Funhaus, but they're just employees to a brand? Rediculous. I'm thankful for RT letting us experience all these guys for another 5 years after IG, but damn, they should've started a Patreon.
Long hours and not the best pay is always going to lead to a high turnover of employees. Why put all that work in to make other people money when you can set up on your own? got to be a tempting proposition. Just scary as hell. Not everyone is built for it. I often wonder where all the people go who don't manage to find an audience on patreon or get made redundant and can't find another job. Do they leave the gaming sphere completely?
