The JonTron Show

This guy is just funny, he reviews interesting things and always makes me laugh. My favorite episode would be the Food Games Reviews, I was on the floor laughing every time and his newer stuff is a little weird but still super entertaining. He tends to review stuff other people don't so he started to move to movies but that's what makes him interesting and I hope for more episodes in the future.

My title says it all, though, compared to AVGN, at least JonTron is still doing inspired and interesting content.. Anyways I don't know, this guy's a notch down from Angry Joe, one up from Smugg White the Woz and infinitely irrelevant in my mind compared to Dunkey. Like I said, though, he's miles behind early AVGN, whilst decades ahead of modern AVGN.

Oh and his politics are wack AF but I didn't include that in my review, as he does not include his politics in -his- reviews. Though let me state - the fact that this man (whose name is Jafari) is racist, or xenophobic or whatever, is gross, and I think he shot himself in the balls with his NRA certified when he went on the air that time talkin' deportation this and pro-trump that. Though, like I said, that does not affect his score - on IMDB that is, though let's just say... it effects it elsewhere.. Oh yes.... Heh heh heh....

To make a small statement - I would like to maim him, but I don't wish him any permanent disfigurement, I guess... I suppose.... Though... Ah nevermind it's only fanboyz that read crap like this anyways, so I'm preaching against the converted.

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.

I've always loved Jon's YouTube show ever since I starting watching it in 2012. He always had his unique, genuine and even now, pretty iconic sense of humor that is well known across the internet. He started his show heavily focused on the world of gaming, yet he still had his wits about him to deliver this in a way that was clearly different compared to other YouTube game reviewers of the time like The Angry Video Game Nerd. His style of humor had a very oddball tone mixed with criticism and positivity at the same time, compared to AVGN's comedic negativity targeted at almost every bad video game he ever reviewed. JonTron would only select materiel that he would know for sure would work with his style and be guaranteed to give his audience a good laugh.

But starting in 2013 after Jon left his channel for a while to work with Arin Hanson on GameGrumps, he returned with a slightly different style to evolve his channel. He would start reviewing game collections instead of just focussing on one or create funny top 10 lists. He started breaking away from gaming, which is understandable since almost everyone on YouTube does that and he wanted to stay unique. He started reviewing movies and nostalgic tv shows to get a laugh out of them

I don't exactly know how or when, but something about his style and delivery of comedy changed around this time, and it hasn't been the same since. I also never really thought that it was a bad thing though, because you cant stay the same forever, and you cant just focus your YouTube career on one topic for years and years without it becoming stale. You should also not just continue a YouTube channel purely out of feeling pressured by your fans. Jon is free to do what he wants, but I can't shake the feeling that the magic of his videos just hasn't feel the same and that the channel is veering of into an undesirable direction.

But whatever direction his channel may take in the future, it's still great to see his face still making waves around the internet instead of not seeing him at all.

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.
