It's gifs! On a TV!

gif.tv is just what you might expect. It made me giggle a bit.

I didn't see anything NSFW in my channel-clicking, but I suppose there might be some.

Did anyone else encounter the real feed from Nickelodeon? It blends in remarkably well.

(Also, the one in which robo-Bieber gets hit by the balloon is genuinely frightening -- watch his complete failure to change expression -- and will haunt my dreams tonight.)

Plenty of film and TV craptures (sic) to wade through, but then you find a gem like this.

No don't kick grandma!

Where on earth is that from?

I was a little disappointed that it's click anywhere to randomize. I was hoping it would have different channels depending on the button you clicked.

My wife gave me one piece of advice as I was leaving the house this morning; "When you get to work" she said, "Don't click the Gif-TV link on Metafilter..."

As she sat in the dark staring blankly at her computer, watching clip after clip, I realized that I've already lost her to the addiction of the link.

So I'll wait till I get home to check it out.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — forever.

It cracks me up that the ad I'm getting at the bottom is for Duffy's Napa Valley Rehab center (presumably for treatment of addiction).

More entertaining that I thought it would be. Wonder how many clips they have...?

I need a channel that is exclusively cat gifs. Please.

Yeah, all I get is a blank tv. Do I need to have something weird enabled or turn off adblock or something?

Adblock doesn't prevent it from working here on Linux with Firefox 6.0. I got the blank TV and no gifs showing up on another computer (using Windows) with an older version of Firefox, so the thing may be that it only works with newer browsers.

I love it! Yeah there *is* some NSFW stuff and it happens randomly.

I saw Barbarella on a fur rug slightly nodding her head in a 5-frame loop.
Then I saw someone running across a soccer field and getting run over by a horse. I almost don't want to change it now. I may have to open a new tab to continue.

Needs more awesome cool moments like this. (The guy does his job like a trooper)

At least it's better than CheezburgerNetworks' Senor Gif, which has degenerated into a cringeworthy mix of BobSagat'sHomeVideos/Jackass/ItBleedsItLeadsNews.

I observed a higher than expected ratio of Dawson.gif/Fail.gif.

In light of these images, would you gentlemen agree that treadmills are much more likely to result in injury than are speeding automobiles?

Answer.

Hey, I think I recognize this parrot.

Yup, it's him.

I expected an actual TV show with dancing hamsters called something like OMGOSH! 2.0.
