Kudos to the writers and the producers who are trying to create something during the Covid-19 crisis. Most of the TV show writers and producers are sitting around doing zip! But if the best thing American comedy can produce is the snarky dog and Margaret Cho, then we are in trouble. Seriously. Is that the best these people can do?Well, at least it's not the Australian horror "LOL" that was painful to watch. This show is merely tragic. Lenny Bruce, Joan Rivers, and George Carlin must be horrified if this is the state of American comedy today.

Dearth of Laughs
Barry016921 July 2020
Is the goal to get as few laughs as possible? If so, they are succeeding. Some of these comedians are very funny when they are doing stand up. These skits are all pretty much horrendous. And Jim Norton just isn't funny ever. When the only skit that is the least bit funny is Triumph skewering Dr. Phil, you know you're in trouble.
At Least They're Doing Something?

I'm not gonna lie, it's pretty terrible. However, in theory it was a good idea and a nice try with the Rona upon us. There are a few funny skits by Michael Rapaport and Tim Dillon. For the rest of the comics the highest honor I can give is that a few were were interesting. Those comics being Preacher Lawson, Fortune Feimster, and Piff the Magic Dragon. Everything else is pretty much a waste of time.
Also I really don't understand what people find funny about Chip Chipperson. Maybe it's an inside joke thing among his fan base.
Overall the show is a good example of why comedians need writers and, when creating a skit, a director and the proper context.

TBS Will Not Defeat Us!

Chip Chipperson was the obvious champion throughout this entire tournament, or at least I thought so until the final episode revealed what a complete and diabolical fraud this program was from the beginning. The producers of this program should ashamed of themselves.
I would pray for God to have mercy on their souls but it is obvious to me now that God is dead.
Funny as a school bus fire.

Stand up comedians failing at sketch comoics
gmcknight-094803 August 2020
Stand up comedy is a specialized art form, and sketch comedy is a very different beast. I've seen several of SNL's best SUCK at stand up, but they were brilliant at sketch. These stand up comics are swerving way out of their lane. Only Jason Sudekis shines, and, no surprise, he's a great sketch comic.

Just bad

It's so bad couldn't make it 5 mins in the 1st episode. Really nothing funny at all. Just tried again and couldn't tell what was going on some rap thing with two people I've never seen before. Bad just bad stop it and play reruns of almost anything.
