Given they have been around for years and have captured a large chunk of the millennial video games fan audience, it&#8217;s not surprising they&#8217;re banking on that same audience also being invested in the growing world of esports. With Dan Harmon currently hot stuff due to the massive rise in popularity of <em>Ricky and Morty<\/em>, it&#8217;s easy to take a guess that <em>Good Game<\/em> will do very well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An all-new comedy series based on the world of esports is coming to Google&#8217;s premium YouTube Red service, produced by Dan Harmon (Ricky and Morty) and starring the Game Grumps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1492,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[4],"class_list":["post-785","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-featured"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
