Pure Pwnage (/ˈpjʊər ˈoʊnᵻdʒ/ pure ownage) was an Internet-distributed, mockumentary series from ROFLMAO Productions. The fictional series purports to chronicle the life and adventures of Jeremy (played by Jarett Cale), a Canadian and self-proclaimed "pro gamer". In 2010, an adaptation of the web series began airing on Showcase, a Canadian cable television channel, but the series failed to be picked up for a second season.
Jeremy (played by Jarett Cale) also known as "teh_pwnerer" is extremely proficient at video games but inexperienced when it comes to normal social interactions. Jeremy is only interested in "pwning n00bs" and making it as a pro gamer and often comes off as lazy and narcissistic to other people. Kyle (played by Geoff Lapaire) is Jeremy's brother and an aspiring film-maker. Kyle decides to film a documentary of Jeremy's exploits as a gamer and his interactions with the gaming and non-gaming world. In 2012 it was announced that the crew are making a Pure Pwnage film with funding by their fans.
There are currently eighteen web episodes available to the public and eight TV episodes.
