Brooklyn Guy The Babysitter!

Overall, December is a mediocre month. Content here is pretty much a hit or miss, from great videos to wasted and/or terrible ones. Still, that month and 2021 ended with "Brooklyn Guy The Rapper" on a reasonably good note. This is an improvement over last year's "Jeffy's New Year Resolution", which turned out awful and hammered the final nail to 2020's dubious coffin. Anyways, let's go over the video ratings for December.

• Cody's Magic Wand!: ★★★★½ (4.5)

• Joseph's Grandparents!: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

• Jeffy's Tree House!: ★★★☆☆ (3)

• Brooklyn Guy The Babysitter!: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

• The Chain Letter!: ★☆☆☆☆ (1)

• Elf On The Shelf!: ★★★★½ (4.5)

• Brooklyn Guy's Christmas Problem!: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

• Jeffy's Gucci Xbox!: ★★★★☆ (4)

• Brooklyn Guy The Rapper!: ★★★☆☆ (3)

Best Video: Elf On The Shelf!

Worst Video: Joseph's Grandparents!

Final Month Rating: 4.7/10

Perhaps, 2022 will be better than 2021 and 2020 for SML and as a whole.

Now let's go to 2021 as a whole. Overall, it is a mediocre year for SML. Like I said on the earlier mid-year review, 2021 started smoothly, but turned to rolling hills to steep mountains with many ups and downs. On one hand, we got hits like JAJGTP, Jeffy's Joyride, and SQUID GAME. On the other hand, we got misses like Jeffy Gets Ran Over, Jeffy's 17th Birthday, and Cody's Accident.

Overall Rating for 2021: 49.3/100

1: Cody's Magic Wand - 6.5/10

A decent video with a couple of jokes that missed.

2: Joseph's Grandparents - 6/10

One of those videos that is good for a couple laughs (albeit heavily carried by the ending) but that's about it.

3: Jeffy's Tree House - 5.5/10

Always sucks when there's a video with a fun first half and then it just falls off in the second half.

4: Brooklyn Guy The Babysitter - 4/10

Just a video with bland and mediocre jokes.

5: The Chain Letter - 6.5/10

Same as many other videos this month, just decent and that's it.

6: Elf On The Shelf - 6.5/10

One of the more unique Christmas specials concept wise and while it does deliver for the most part, a lot of the dialouge/jokes just felt super generic and cliche. Not enough to stop it from being decent though.

7: Brooklyn Guy's Christmas - 7/10

Nothing but a pretty standard, funny video.

8: Jeffy's Gucci Xbox - 7/10

By contrast, this is a rather unusual video that I think worked well.

9: Brooklyn Guy The Rapper - 5.5/10

Fitting for a final video for 2021, the last video is a polarizing one with strong positive and negative qualities alike, but I think the positive qualities slightly win out.

FAVORITE: Brooklyn Guy's Christmas and Jeffy's Gucci Xbox

LEAST FAVORITE: Brooklyn Guy The Babysitter

OVERALL: 6.06/10 (Decent). It's a fine enough, albeit somewhat disappointing end to a very polarizing year that was all over the place.

OVERALL SCORE FOR 2021: 5.94/10. Overall 2021 was a pretty polarizing year. It started strong, then started to become hit or miss after the C&D but then started to somewhat pick itself up in the final months. All in all, I'd consider it a borderline decent year; this is actually the highest score a year's gotten since 2016, which I definitely think is worth nothing.

All in all though I get the impression SML is starting to become more comfortable in it's new skin, and I do hope it finds its way by 2022.

BEST MONTH: July (6.7/10)

WORST MONTH: August (4.8/10)

Here is my image.

Then I’m gonna lock this post on Christmas Day 2022.

Happy birthday to that amazing video and the best one from last year!!

Jeffy, Junior and Joseph are played by Lance, Logan and Lovell respectively.

Notice a pattern here?

NOTE: At the time of this review, I am unable to find a quality thumbnail to incorporate to it.

It's still not even better.

GOOD:

+The Mickey Mouse parody is pretty much the only good part here.

NEUTRAL:

~Brooklyn Guy is tolerable.

BAD:

-Mario is awful.

-Rosalina is awful.

-Lots of unfunny, maddening moments.

-The video felt stupid.

UGLY:

--Jeffy, DO I NEED TO MOTHERF___ING EXPLAIN HERE!?

--Nothing happened in this video.

--Scenes with Mario and Rosalina? Like I said, DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THIS!

Overall, this is just another obnoxious babysitting video.

Final Rating: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

3/10, this is a great example of a mediocre video

Pros:

+Mario was fine

+Rosalina was okay

+Brooklyn Guy was good for the most part

Cons:

-Jeffy was pretty bad

-There was some filler

-Brooklyn Guy was pretty annoying when he was siding with Jeffy

I knew this video is bad in the first place. This is just another terrible Babysitting video, with Jeffy, Rosalina, and even Brooklyn Guy being very annoying!

Expectation: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

Reality: ½☆☆☆☆ (0.5)

When I get back home, I’ll rewatch this video and give my final thoughts, which may deviate from my first thoughts.
