xQc’s Twitch game show shows great promise despite production challenges

Ludwig Ahgren Launches Offbrand Creative Agency to Bring Juiced to Life

Famous YouTuber Ludwig Ahgren has recently established his own creative agency called Offbrand. The agency aims to help content creators bring their event and series ideas to reality. Ahgren’s first client for Offbrand was none other than Felix “xQc” Lengyel.

To kick off their collaboration, Ahgren and xQc created Juiced, a thrilling six-episode game show that features two pairs of contestants competing in various challenges. Fans have the power to vote for the team member they want to see “juiced,” which involves being covered in slime.

Despite facing production challenges, like the malfunctioning ‘omega juicer’ device, Juiced has already garnered significant success after only two episodes. The numbers indicate that it is well on its way to becoming a major hit.

According to StreamsCharts, the first episode featuring Sykkuno, Kyedae, Zoil, and Myth drew an average of 94,000 viewers and peaked at 125,000 viewers. The second episode, with Ludwig, AustinShow, ConnorEatsPants, and Jerma985, had slightly lower viewership, averaging at 76,000 and peaking at 115,000. This may be attributed to the initial excitement fading away.

However, Juiced still managed to captivate xQc’s devoted Twitch following.

Considering these numbers, it is highly likely that the upcoming episodes will also perform exceptionally well. Moreover, the show has experienced minimal production issues compared to its debut episode.

For context, xQc’s regular streams have maintained an average viewership of 74,000 in the past month, with a peak of approximately 227,000 viewers. Therefore, although the peak viewership for Juiced is significantly higher, the average is quite similar.

xQc’s consistent popularity has made him the most-watched streamer on Twitch numerous times this year.

Given these statistics, it is safe to say that Juiced justifies its $500,000 production cost and six months of development. Especially once all the episodes are streamed on Twitch and subsequently uploaded to YouTube, the exponential reach can further solidify its value.

If the demand persists, there may even be a second season of Juiced in the future.
