The JonTron Show

JonTron has got to be one of the best solo YouTubers that reviews gaming. He is so witty and damn funny, and he honestly does not even try to be. Jon just has the sense of humour that anybody can enjoy.

Jon Jafari is extremely talented - with an endless knowledge of video games from the beginning of time to the modern era, the greatest sense of humour, the ability to film, edit, direct and star in his show and sings like an angel has just descended from heaven, he combines all of it into a 15 minute gaming review and will leave you laughing from beginning until end.

Although he has left Game Grumps to begin Season Two of JonTron, he hasn't uploaded a JonTron episode in nearly seven months, although plans on real soon. Before he uploads his new material, you must definitely watch all of the old videos he has done. 15 minutes of pure gold!

I give JonTron ... TENOUTTATEN! (This is a Game Grumps reference for those who don't understand).

This is hands down the best review show online. Not only does Jon go out of his way to find the most obscure games possible, going so far as to dig into the sticky depths of Vietnamese bootlegs, but he encourages us to not only a laugh at the terrible quality of these games but develop a feeling of appreciation for the people who made them become a reality.

Why did Beat Takashi make Takashi's Challenge, a game of such absurd difficulty that the only way to win is to watch the Japanese TV commercial he made for the game, which included an important clue? What the heck is Nightshade? Why is it so awkward to play and what were the creators thinking with the bizarre design choices? Why is China so obsessed with loud aggressive background music? Why does Italy have an obsession with animated Titanic movies with talking animals? Jon asks the real questions.

It doesn't hurt that Jon Jafari comes across at that ubiquitous "ideal best friend" we all wish we had. He has that magical something that makes you want to buy a bunch of tacos and just hang out with him for hours, as opposed to many reviewers who make you either want to punch them for being smug or turn off after five minutes for being obnoxious.

The JonTron Show, created and hosted by Jon Jafari, is a wildly entertaining YouTube series that blends surreal humor, biting parody, and genuine pop culture commentary. With his unique mix of absurd skits and deadpan delivery, JonTron stands out in the crowded field of internet comedy. His editing style-sharp cuts, exaggerated reactions, and outlandish visual gags-transforms even the most mundane topics into laugh-out-loud entertainment. Whether he's reviewing bizarre infomercials or forgotten video games, Jon's comedic timing and unpredictability keep viewers hooked.

One of his most iconic episodes revolves around Flex Tape, where Jon hilariously dissects Phil Swift's enthusiastic product demonstrations. His over-the-top admiration for Flex Seal, including dramatic reenactments and fake worship, became an internet meme unto itself. Other standout episodes include his look at Kazoo Kid, Bootleg Disney Games, and his surreal dive into Goosebumps VHS tapes. Each video showcases his talent for combining nostalgia with parody, turning obscure or dated content into comedy gold.

What sets JonTron apart is his blend of internet-era absurdity with high-effort production. Despite long gaps between uploads, each episode feels carefully crafted, filled with unexpected twists and bizarre punchlines that reward repeat viewing. His ability to make even the strangest topics feel universally hilarious has earned him a devoted fanbase. The JonTron Show is proof that with the right voice, even a review of cleaning products can become a comedic masterpiece.

Of course. If there's a guy who NEVER fails to make you laugh at least ONCE in a video, it's JonTron. Every single episode is hilarious, my favorite being the two-part Goosebumps TV review (ESPECIALLY PART 2!).

There is a certain ability in JonTron which is also seen in most other web reviewers like AVGN, Nostalgia Critic, Angry Joe, etc., which makes him seamlessly and almost effortlessly make great comedy out of "yelling at rotten media". It may seem a bit odd at first, but it's actually enthralling.

The way JonTron keeps his episodes in a specific albeit loose storyline just adds to the quality. And with humor hysterical enough to make someone literally choke, this web show sails excellently.

It's amazing what the internet can give you. If there's anyone whom I'll trust for justly "yelling at rotten media", it's first and foremost JonTron.

Like most YouTubers in person he seems awkward but on the show when it comes to scripts, delivery and general humour he's always been great. He used to make Game Grumps funny just by improvising (it's very not funny now without him).

An overall great guy who makes great content, though I can't say I'm happy with one video a year or with how he 'moved on' from reviewing retro games into more generic content.

Regardless, the person as well as the character are golden, looking forward to anything he decides to do.
