Kill Tony: Kill or Be Killed

Unfortunately the format of the show was poorly executed, with fake bucket pulls (like Francis foster from Triggernometry, a Youtube channel with over 1.3 million subscribers and a regular JRE guest), and unfunny guests (Rogan and Segura). Ari Matti was a poor opener, who's previous jokes include bombing a Taylor Swift concert. Casey Rocket, a usual fan favorite flopped. The only light brought to this episode was from Kyle Dunnigan as Elon Musk and JFK, and Shane Gillis as Trump, Adam Ray as Biden and and closer William Montgomery. I think everyone was nervous for Netflix, even Brian Redban wasn't on form, who is a staple of Kill tony.

This sucked hard. Only Ron White was funny.

Nobody in the audience laughed at all. Inwcause there certainly wasn't even one comic that was funny. Heavily weighted on tired, inane skits (Biden, Trump, Elon).. Joe Rogan owns the club so he was an obligatory panel participant. Please, Don't waste your time. The only redeeming quality was Ron white. Not sure why he's slumming with this crowd. An extremely brief peek-a-boo by Heath Cordes. They should have let him do 10 minutes. Far funnier than the regular guests or the hat-pulls. Tony should just put everyone out of our misery. Couldn't have been worse if it tried.

I'm a big kill tony fan, watch every episode weekly, and buy and watch the live shows. I've seen good and bad episodes. This wasn't great. Tom and Joe have proven time and time again they suck as hosts, best example being the 10 year anniversary. Shane, Adam, and Kyle were at least trying with their characters. While i wasn't a big fan of Kyle's character's, I know thats just me, and i respect the attempts he was making. I thought Shane and Adam did good with their characters and the regulars all did decent, but some of them felt off, but that happens in normal episodes too. I think they did a few too many special guests and regulars, with not enough bucket pulls, and it didn't portray the spirt of the show fully. Overall, a little disappointed, but it wasn't worse than any other so-so episode with bad guests.

I've watched tons of episodes of kill Tony. Tony is an unfunny obnoxious little prick. He is bad at comedy and he's bad at his own show. Normally he completely bullies the open mic-ers. In this...just like his arena shows, he begs people who actually have recognizable names to make the show.

I'm embarrassed just looking at Joe Rogan this entire show. Joe Rogan has made himself such a public idiot and follows through on this show. Joe Rogan is literally Joe Biden in this episode. He has no idea what's going on and just looks confused and pretends to laugh only at the "comedians" he has propped-up and no one else (not that they are funny...none of it is funny). He holds the microphone the whole time like a moron. He is just a sad old man.

Joe Rogan is the one with all the money and doesn't make any attempt at comedy the entire show.

These people don't deserve any money or attention. The hack comedy is consistent through the open mic-ers all the way to Tony, Joe, Kyle, Shane, Adam, and everyone involved.

This show is obviously sanitized for Netflix as well. It's a sad attempt to further popularize kill tony. Tony "interviews" the worst comics with soft ball underhand pitch questions rather than being a complete asshole and bullying people.

The guests all suck.

No one goes hard like they do in the actual kill Tony show.

And I should also mention...the actual kill Tony show...is just as stupid and cringe just in different ways.

They took the standard kill Tony show (which is cringe and unwatchable) and made it into something unimaginably more cringy and stupid and unfunny and unwatchable.

I'll start on the positive side, some of the bits were ok, amusing at least. Shane Gillis as Donald Trump was leaps and bounds better than the rest of the show. Honestly, probably one of the best Trump impression I have seen. Now, on the negative side, the bucket pulls were shockingly bad. It's going to sound like I'm being mean or exaggerating, but about halfway through I seriously started to ask "does stand up comedy just suck that bad in Austin ?" As for the bucket pulls, they obviously had to be pre picked, are these people the best of Austin? Also, if you think it's just me having a bad sense of humor, listen to the crowd, you could hear a pin drop. Typically in live comedy things are objectively funnier in person, laughter is infectious, but whoa, this crowd is silent. It takes a ton of guts to get up and perform in front of people, especially on Netflix, so I'm really not trying to trash these comedians, but it really was bad. I wish all those comedians the best.
