''[http://www.youtube.com/user/LifesAGlitchTV Life's A Glitch TV]'' (commonly abbreviated as LAGTV) is a [[YouTube]] channel hosted by two [[Canada, Eh?|Canadian guys]]<ref>from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia to be exact</ref> named Adam (NovaWar) and Jeff (MaximusBlack). They have done some [[Let's Play|Let's Plays]] for ''[[Resident Evil 5]]'', ''[[Portal 2]]'' and ''[[Left 4 Dead|Left 4 Dead 2]]'', although they are mostly known for their ''[[StarcraftStarCraft II]]'' commentary series called "When Cheese Fails 101", which has been retooled as "Will Cheese Fail?".
 
Unlike their contemporaries such as [[Day Nine]], [[Husky Starcraft]] and [[The Cynical Brit|TotalBiscuit]] (all of whom cast games at [[Tournament Play]] level), LAGTV casts replays of [[So Okay It's Average|mid- to high-level Ladder games]] submitted by their fans, in an attempt to analyze in-depth what happens [[Title Drop|when]] [[Whoring|cheese tactics]] [[Title Drop|fail]]. The duo also casts more traditional 1v1 Ladder games, while still keeping them separate from When Cheese Fails 101 proper.
Line 12:
MaximusBlack and NovaWar are known for their insightful analysis, [[Large Ham|upbeat personality]], [[Ho Yay|natural chemistry]] and [[Toilet Humor|poop jokes]]. [[Refuge in Vulgarity|LOTS of poop jokes.]]

* [[Berserk Button]]: If you are winning a match, you better hope [[Third-Act Stupidity|you don't do something stupid to throw it away in the endgame]], especially if your opponent [[Idiot Ball|has made every mistake under the sun and has essentially given you the match on a silver platter]]. Otherwise MaximusBlack will ''destroy you''.
** It is also [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT1VEuTvwVk&t=61s not advised] to send the casters replays of [[Leeroy Jenkins|worker rushes]].
{{quote|'''[[No Indoor Voice|NovaWar]]''': (after about twenty seconds of [[Stunned Silence]]) WHY IN THE FUCK! [[ThisPunctuated! IsFor! SpartaEmphasis!|DO WE GET! THIS! HORSESHIT!]] WHY DOES IT HAPPEN?! WE HAVE TWENTY - SIX - HUNDRED EMAILS FOR WHEN CHEESE FAILS, AND 90% OF THEM ARE THIS SHIT!}}
* [[Big OMG]]: A favourite phrase of MaximusBlack's whenever something extraordinary happens, such as {{spoiler|[[No Kill Like Overkill|FireToBlaze's Ultralisk rush]]}} and {{spoiler|[[Colony Drop|Ketroc dropping a Planetary Fortress right next to his opponent's Nexus.]]}}, and especially {{spoiler|[[Instant Win Condition|Exogenesis VS BabyV]].}}
* [[But Not Too Black]]: Frequently [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by Maximus, who is quite black in [[Real Life]], but has a regular Canadian accent without so much of a hint of [[Soul Brotha]]. [[Brief Accent Imitation|He'll sometimes slip into stereotypical Soul Brotha when he's really angry though]].
Line 42 ⟶ 39:
* [[The Merch]]: NovaWar once joked about making [[Fan Nickname|Bob the Zealot]] T-shirts.
* [[Non Sequitur]]: Both Adam and Jeff are prone to these. However, at one point, Adam took it '''[[Catch Phrase|to a]] [[Up to Eleven|whole 'nother level]]''' and basically turned [http://youtu.be/G3daJuXoRV0 an entire episode] into one.
* [[Rage Quit]]: Per typical [[StarcraftStarCraft]] etiquette, any player who leaves without typing "gg" in the chat is assumed to have rage-quit, and this tends to happen a lot in LAGTV-casted games. One particularly memorable early episode had a Protoss player ragequitting ''one minute'' into the match [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|because his probe died in an attempted proxy cannon rush]].
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: In particuarly obnoxious matches, the casters will break down step-by-step exactly how much their cheese failed.
* [[Rouge Angles of Satin]]: Misspelled chat messages are mocked.
