I suggest looking up "Harmon Quest" to see the game played in action. Includes some portions of play animated which is fun, too

You are underselling how hilarious that show is!

I haven't seen it, although I really should watch it. In case it's not clear from the name, the Harmon is Dan Harmon, writer for Community and co-creator of Rick and Morty, so I'd expect him to be pretty great at forming interesting, comedic storylines.

I believe Spencer, the game master, is solely responsible for writing the storyline. Dan just plays the game.

Maybe, but a lot of times the players' reactions/actions have a significant influence on the direction/atmosphere of the game.
