Created By: Graham Stark, Paul Saunders
Status: Re-Uploading
Updates: Mondays
Host: The Escapist (2008 - 2015), YouTube (2022 -)
Original Run: November 19, 2008 - March 30, 2015 / July 13, 2022 -
Associated Shows: Unskippable: Let's Play, Running Start
People confused about Graham Stark's appearance at the start of this video obviously don't watch Unskippable and for that I pity them.
- Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw in his review of Halo Wars

Unskippable is a video series by Paul and Graham on The Escapist that involves the two hosts commenting and responding to video game cutscenes. Once, they broadcasted their antics live on an Unskippable: Let's Play, which gave rise to Graham & Paul Let's Play.

On July 13, 2022 it was announced that Bionic Trousers Media had re-aquired the ownership and rights to Unskippable and the entire archive. This meant that the original episodes could be re-uploaded in higher resolution; unless the original cutscene is lower resolution in which case, you get what you get. Some of the cutscene footage has also been rerecorded for better quality.

When a crow or raven appears in a cutscene (a frequent occurence!), its name is Russell... Russell the Crow.

That Was the N-th Time I Died

#top

At the beginning of The Darkness, the main character mentions that "That was the first time I died," something Graham repeats at the end of the cutscene. In subsequent episodes, if it looks like the main character dies in the scene, Graham will say "And that was the N-th time I died." This joke has been referenced 15 times, and used 12 times (not counting Lost Odyssey, where it was rescinded).
