Kroll Show

This show excels at highlighting the peculiar and hilarious aspects of real people and reality TV. Nick Kroll's attention to detail and direction are impeccable, illustrated by the cast's portrayal of idiosyncrasies that not all may be quick enough to notice, but are instant classics once absorbed. Some examples of this are Pony Tales, Ghost Bouncers, PubLIZity, and Wheels Ontario, all of which could be made into their own successful TV shows.

Acute specificity being a mainstay of the show's humor, some of its best moments may verge on cryptic for those less culturally aware or perceptive, but there are still many components with mass appeal. Writing, acting, direction, production, editing—all fantastic. This show is a museum.

I honestly don't get how so many people can find this show so unappealing.

It's a fantastic satire of modern celebrity and reality TV that sadly no one on the internet gets outside of a few niches. It's a parody of the downfall of society.

It's something more people should get, but I guess Kroll coming from a show about fantasy football will give you an audience more predisposed to ESPN and firmly against Bravo therefore unlikely to get a lot of the humor. It's a satire and at this point in the second season it has blossomed into one of Comedy Central's best shows.

Think the other reviewers missed the point on this show (especially the guy that said 'It's awful!' then proceeded to spend a paragraph talking about Futurama) and would hate to see people miss this gem on the basis the three negative reviews already here. That said, some episodes and/sketches are stronger than others are but that makes the show no different from any other program of its type (even Monty Python did sketches that weren't really funny {their words, not mine}). Thing is, most of the sketches on Kroll are parodies of reality programs or outrageous personalities so, by nature, they're going to be kinda irritating but unfunny? Not to me. Check out 'Rich Dicks', 'Liz & Liz', 'Ghost Bouncers', 'Oh Hello' or any of the 'Armond about the House' sketches and decide for yourself if this isn't one of the most hilarious, well-done sketch programs put out in years. The chameleonesque skills of Kroll and Cast in portraying their array of characters are truly awe inspiring in their nuance and ability to mix familiarity with caricature (who hasn't met a Liz B or Bobby Bottlefiller?). Even the intro sequence and theme music stand out for being impactful, evocative and stylish. Along with Key & Peele, I feel this is one of the best written, designed and executed comedies currently being made but the only way to know is to check it out and see for yourself. 9/10

I would like to preface this by saying Nick Kroll gets me.

Kroll Show is a skit show that mainly lampoons the horrible reality that is current, unscripted, television. Each sketch flows naturally into the next and the characters that grace my TV every Tuesday night, are simultaneously ridiculous and all too true to life. The way current reality TV is heading some of these fake shows aren't too far away anyways. This is the one show that I force my friends to watch with me and they're all better for it.

I have seen a ton of stand up comedy, and for whatever reason, I've had the pleasure of seeing Kroll around 15 times and every single time he had the whole theater rolling in the isles. Easily one of my top 5 live performers, and as if God was reading my diary, Comedy Central game him a show .

What I really want to use this platform to say that we all owe the executives at Comedy Central a big hug for green lighting this triumph of comedy.

This is one of the better skit shows post Chappelle Show.

Nick Kroll is surprisingly funny and yes it took the success of his wildly popular Netflix show Big Mouth for me to even further investigate his comedic in devours, I'm glad I stubbled across this little hidden gem.

The main difference between this and other skit comedy shows is instead of keeping it vague and open to a broader promise of diversity because he makes more 'characters' every other skit revolves around one of the same characters.

Don't get me wrong some characters are hilarious (personally a big fan of Liz and Armound) but other characters can be "eh" or not your cup of tee and I guess that's where the shows main flaw is. Once you're not a fan of a particular skit you're just going to ride it out because the same character is coming back the next episode.

Was good for some big laughs just got a little played out ps what was the deal with these awkward in-between moments interviewing guests and writers? That didn't work for me.

All in all I give it 6.4 knee slaps to of 10.
