Bruh remember when we all complained that we didn’t get a lot of stuff in the sims 3? Little did we know what the sims 4 would turn out to be..

[carolkoski]

People complaining about how small showtime was... I imagine how they felt when Get Famous launched

[EazyDoor]

Is this really 8 years ago, already? Aw man.

[richardherndon]

I love how GameStop is selling the Katy Perry version of Showtime for $10 less then the regular version

[alexrozzatty]

The awkward moment when the price of the Sims 3 stuff is still the same because people are still buying it over the sims 4 😂

[DrThrax-omxk]

Sims 3 is so much better than Sims 4, too bad that the performance problems make it torture to play

[AnnoyingTiger]

Wait, her music/self doesn't appear in the game?? What's the point, then? I was expecting a Katy Perry Sim Celebrity living in my neighborhood D:

[recino]

Forgive me LRG, for I have sinned. I just bought the Katy Perry edition. I told myself that I wouldn't get Showtime, seeing as it doesn't seem like a good expansion, but it was $15 bucks at Walmart, and the last one in the bin!

Lol your dry humor is awesome!
Most reviewers try too hard and it shows also doing a character sometimes limits their interaction.I think its brilliant LGR plays himself (at least I think he does) so the humor is more natural IMO.

Humor is a defensive reaction....Often surprising the audience with whats said and this triggers a defensive reaction (humor). While characters are cool they are too often predicted if you expect a reaction it reduces the defensive trigger.

Monty Python showed this very well the dry humor help in the comic delivery.My point is its LGR's delivery that makes me laugh.His voice is so soothing and calm when he does go off its not expected.

Keep doing what your doing man I hate to say gratz on not trying lol but when it comes to humor....Your doing it right!

Rewatching this years later... Knowing how many packs were eventually released, it's even stranger that this one was so close to Late Night

[CarolinaHeart]

3:20 Forgot how old these videos were and got a sudden realization right here. I was 12 when this vid dropped and now I'm 23

Showtime is kind of a must for me; without it, I couldn't have the chick stuck in the dead-end sing-a-gram job for her entire adult life or the hapless magician who accidentally killed his assistant. Also, heckling toddlers and infants never gets old.

[alicequint]

They should have actually had npc celebrity's like had a Katy Kerry running around

[faithhallofficial]

Showtime should have came with the career of a dancer

[polgara]

Here's a funfact about Showtime.
You need Showtime to complete The Ark Builder lifetime wish from Pets.
I had a look through the code to figure out why it was broken and it has a requirement for you to have 2 fireflies EVEN if you don't have Showtime. It doesn't tell you that you need fireflies either!

[MsEeveeMaster]

omg i never knew all that social crap existed, i turned off the social stuff as soon as i saw it and never looked back.

[RikaRieGaming]

Sucks you have to get this just to unlock the genie

[KuddlyKisses]

Honestly, as soon as they mentioned this game I was horrified. I never really liked the celebrity nonsense and the Simport thing REALLY cemented it for me. NO! Ugh, I play The Sims to get away from real life. Why would I want to surround myself with people I don't even know to get ahead...yeah, like real life :P The whole Katy Perry thing cemented my decision even further. I'm sure she's a nice person and all that, but seriously, I saw her in the interview and she seemed like she had no idea what The Sims was and why she was even endorsing the product. It's all about the money with EA and apparently Katy Perry as well -_- Sorry if anything I said offends anyone, but it is just MY opinion and not meant to hurt anyone ^_^

[userjoao]

This actually could've been shook if it was more Sims 1 Superstar and less Katy Perry.

Found the sims 3 showtime for $1 in a local thrift shop and snapped it up. Frankly I think thats all I would have paid for it. Surprisingly the box was a little banged up in one spot but the disc is in near perfect condition. Watching your review again I think I understand why.
