I hope you guys are reading this, because what I am about to say is...well, crucial in my opinion.
The idea behind Project Lore was to primarily provide strategies how to run heroics and (now) raids. If I am mistaken, slap me and disregard what I am saying. I think you did tremendous job on the heroics. Hands down, fact. But lately in Karazhan, I start noticing that the main focus is to get to the boss, get the strategy down, and kill it - which is cool, the viewers still get to see how to down that stuff, but unfortunately, raids are not only about bosses - trash can be pretty challenging. What particularly got me thinking were the actors right before Opera - the tanks did a good job taking them out of the spotlight, but nobody mentioned why they are doing that, and that it's almost mandatory to do so.
So in future episodes, I kind of hope we get a minute of trash overview, or quick hints before specific pulls, because some of them can be pretty nasty. For instance, note that the few mobs between Chess and Prince are not tauntable, and hit pretty hard - new groups should avoid having a single tank on both of them, during double pulls; trash between Curator and Shade is often immune or highly resistant to magic - balance druids, pop your feral form and set, if you have one, paladins, don't waste mana consecrating, and so on.
Excellent job on the bosses though - I didn't know you can use the warlock summon to get away from prematurely starting Opera :)

- NOOOOO, Dorkins! You should have taken the rifle! It's the best weapon for a BM hunter for a loooong time, and you're a dwarf, so you get the extra bonus as well. Well, grats to Lyle on it, but geez, Dorkins, if you get the chance to get the rifle before LK comes out, please take it. I know the bow drops off Prince and the rifle drops much earlier in the instance, but you said yourself that it's a good speed. I raid with hunters very heavily into theorycrafting and I know I guy who was still using the steelhawk crossbow in SSC instead of the phoenix bow because of the speed and he didn't have the rifle yet (he has since gotten it and gotten something better as well). Maybe if Lyle petitioned a GM to transfer it, this video could be submitted as evidence that you were both there. T_T
^This is no longer true at all with the 3:2 macro, it makes weapons speed alot more less of a factor and allows you to focus more on the dps of the actual weapon....it has been this way for a bit now.

no offence but i really hate these guys i dont understand how they got a show when they are some of the worst wow players i have seen ...
CONNECTIONS, 'Tis how the world runs. =p
true true, not to mention that they actually enjoy the game, where as most of the time, heroics are done in a "get them all done asap so i can get my badges" manner. and kara is pretty much a jumbo-sized heroic imo :P. once you run it 2-3 times, it gets almost too easy to farm assuming tanks and healers are geared.
they're not the best of the best, but i've seen PLENTY worse, like mages who dont ice block because they're arcane/fire spec... or hunters who run up in the middle of a boss fight (for this example, gruul) to place imm trap for that "extra dps while i shoot"
at least they know what they're doing :)

I'm a girl playing a female character! Scary! But there are tons of us out there... Both the guilds I have been in have loads of girls playing. But yes... there seems to be a high number of healers. I used to be one, until I found being a hunter
much
more fun! Now I compare $%^&* sizes with "the guys". ;o)
Love the show! Keep 'em coming!

This instance should be done with gear that is available before and within it
Meaning the people doing it should have gear of that level and not superior
You guys not only are making mistakes during the run and after while gearing up.
If you did this before half the guilds on a server are in BT/Hyjal then it would of been interesting
Now i have an alt that has 8 hours played on lvl 70 and he is geared enought to kill Maghteridon yesterday ... it is a shame
Pls .. go and do BT or Hyjal ... atleast that would be something some people might be interested to see :)

I completely disagree. As stated before Project Lore is about letting NEW players see these instances before jumping into them. It allows them to know what to expect and also lets them see what to do and what not to do. Although, more explanation should go into the trash, moving the actors out of the "spotlight", that sort of thing. If Project Lore went into MH & BT so many people would be lost. No new 70 is going to jump into T6 unless its an alt of a guild that is already clearing T6 and then they already know the fights and are being carried.
