    Dr Katz deserves more love. The squiggly s--- bothers some people, but it's pretty comfy regardless.

    I've seen some posts saying Chappelle's latest specials were eeehhh, why... He dropped some pretty great material. Not as great as his 1999-2004 work, but still... Dope.

    Bill Burr is on a roll nowadays.

    Chappelle is always great... even when he isn' laugh out loud funny... he is our Mark Twain.

    It was apparent that he was going to be an all time comedy great when he was 14 years old.

    Anyone know if the boondocks reboot is still happening? Some of those classic shows just seem impossible to do now

    Yup that blew my mind so much in 2003—and it's honestly still sort of mindblowing today. I finally watched that documentary 6 Days to Air the other day as well.

    It's supposed to air this year on HBO max—Aaron McGruder was reinstated as showrunner so I'll def be watching, though I'm extremely sad that John Witherspoon passed cuz it won't be the same without him voicing Granddad. I'm really curious to see what they mean by "reboot" cuz it sounded like along with McGruder coming back they were retaining the same voice actors but it seems to be considered an entirely different show.

    Boondocks forecasted racial culture like Idiocracy forecasted America's future.

    I see people on twitter saying "the boondocks could never be made today because people would get offended at riley spitting facts" and at this point it's sadly not even very shocking that people don't understand that Riley is a satirical character making fun of ignorant people such as themselves.

    Same thing happened with Archie Bunker in All in the Family in the 70's. Archie Bunker was written as an oafish bigot with outdated racist, homophobic and misogynist ideas... the point of the show was to show how he was wrong and the progressive liberals were right... except the actor who played Archie Bunker was Caroll o'Connor and was way more charismatic and likeable than the other characters/actors, so the audience always sided with the bigot.

    Squigglevision was visual ASMR. Katz dry responses to the comics bits.. the launch of Jon Benjamin's voice (his hiring is a part of the permitting process to make a weekly cartoon now).

    Jonathan Katz was diagnosed with MS 25 years ago... I hope he is still doing well.

    Has there ever been anyone more typed cast than Chris D'Elia? He's played the same type of character on Workaholics, YOU, Whitney, various podcasts and on the news.

    He's amazing and I rank him at 2 place, right after Dave Chappelle. Bill is the ultimate "I don't give a f---" human being, just saying what's on his mind.

    This is THE greatest comedy moment:



    Red balls of steel.
