What's the Story?
PARANORMAL ACTION SQUAD features an inept trio of ghost chasers. The CGI-animated comedy features YouTube gaming hosts Adam Montoya, Scott Robison, and Evan Fong (aka SeaNanners, Mr. Sark, and Vanoss in the YouTube universe) as Paul, Eddie, and Vanoss, as a team of self-proclaimed paranormal "experts." Using their DIY equipment and nonexistent street smarts, they are committed to investigating hauntings and ridding locales of unwanted ghosts. Also joining them is Pad (Nika Futterman), a paranormal tracking computer, and Orb (Toks Olagundoye), a floating orb who appears as a woman with an attitude.
Is It Any Good?
This adult-oriented series features lots of irreverent humor as the cast bumbles through paranormal investigations and removals. Each installment of Paranormal Action Squad also features an array of ghostly villains, monsters, and weird creatures, many of whom have some pretty funny things to say.
The 13-minute-long episodes don't allow for much story or character development. However, YouTube fans will enjoy the appearances of popular YouTube personalities and game announcers throughout. It won't be to everyone's taste, but folks who like this kind of comedy will probably have some laughs.
