VIEWER COMMENTS
Jeffrey Abramson, VP of Film Division at Gen Art
"He is basically one of those types you can throw into any situation and something interesting will come of it. Ideas like “davidjr.com goes to Sundance” or “davidjr.com test drives at Daytona” etc are what get me excited. What’s unique about his content is his somewhat unassuming first person pov that makes the viewer feel like they, themselves, are along for the ride."

Andrew Michael Baron: Creator of RocketBoom.com
I watch your stuff many a time. Very good work!

14, male, Canada
You are so funny! I listen all the first episode and tomorrow, I'll listen the second, and etc.etc.etc.! I'm from Canada and I ain't got the chance to see you on MTV so I'll look at you here!

Matt Ferrell, Extra TV, Media Supervisor
David Jr., I'm writing from the television show extra to request permission to air clips of your star wars battle or other funny videos you might have. Extra is preparing a story on the website and we're tracking down the funniest clips on the site to include. We're also working on a regular segment for the best viral videos on the web...and your material might fit in very nicely.
