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.

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.
The concept intrigued me, but quickly was able to see the flaws:
1. Jason Sudeikis
2. Jason Sudeikis looks like Donnie tRUMP Jr.
3. Jason Sudeikis is not funny
4. did not find the competitors funny either.

No laughs from me whatsoever. I could barely sit through one skit without getting annoyed or cringing.

While there are a few real comedians on this show, it's completely laugh free. Comedy is dead.

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.

I would give this a zero if it was an option. Not one bit amusing let alone funny. I couldnt even get completely thru one single video. Horrible drivel.

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.

But this is just terrible! It's absolutely painful to watch. I'm watching this a couple of years after it aired; did anyone actually vote? The only redeeming feature is Sudeikis in a suit.
