Canadian Taylor Wyatt adores cartoons and video games, but he seems to encounter some terrible ones. These experiences form the basis of his two webseries: Cartoon Corner and Gaming Alley.

When you switch on to Epic Gamin’, with its big talking purple dog, you may think you've tuned in to a children's title.
