The series, currently at 43 episodes (41, plus two numbered "0" and "10.5"), totals about 5 hours and 13 minutes as of episode 39, but each episode runs about 7 and a half minutes on average and each episode ends at a point that you can stop watching and come back later. For people who have already played through ''[[Half Life]]'', {{spoiler|this series is past when Gordon is captured and left in the compactor - the last episode, 41, had Gordon managing to escape the bio labs.}} [[Examples Are Not Recent]], but the most recent ''as of this writing'' was released on May 4, 2012.
 
Now has a [[FreemansFreeman's Mind/Recap|recap page]] in need of some love.

* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: In episode 41, Gordon recruits a scientist to open the door leading outside, but first has to get past a couple of spinning blades. Gordon easily moves through them and tries to coach the scientist to do the same. The next thing you hear is *SPLAT*. Gordon is annoyed. Luckily, there were two more scientists to work with.
* [[Took a Level Inin Jerkass]]: Freeman gets noticeably more callous, uncaring, and cynical as the series goes on. Compare episode 4, where he tries to [[Take My Hand|save a scientist from falling]], to episode 10, where he says to a scientist "You're on your own, chump" and abandons him. He also talks about how slavery was a good idea (though overly restricted by only targeting one race) and makes a back-up plan in case he accidentally shoots a civilian. There's a [[Sanity Slippage|couple]] [[Rule of Funny|reasons]] for this.
* [[Tracking Device]]: In episode 33, Gordon is understandably upset when he learns his suit is full of these, which is how the HECU has been tracking him.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Doritos. Spends several episodes musing about them, and when he gets them in episodes 10-11, he thinks there's something wrong with them, despite having "enough preservatives in them to mummify a small dog."
