Kroll Show
(2013)

Nick Kroll might be good at business but he is terrible at comedy
Nick Kroll's production company is named "Good at Bizness." and judging from his relentless viral campaigns, he might be good at business. But, judging by his self named show, he is not good at comedy. He is terrible at sketch, in particular. He is not talented with character work, and it seems that he thinks that his lame private jokes will translate to laughs. Time after time, he is wrong. He has only taken on easy targets and that is not good satire. Making fun of reality TV? How stale can you get? His characterizations of "toilet baby" C-Zar is unfortunate. Nick Kroll seems to loathe white trash as he lives in Palaces. It's tacky.

I have heard his stand up is terrible but I only saw one clip on youtube(AWFUL)so it's possible he has better material.

The fact that is father is one of the most powerful billionaires in modern history, is irrelevant to this review, but it is interesting how that is factoring into the incessant and annoying promotion that accompanies his every youtube. His ability to snag top stars hasn't worked to improve his ratings at all. And, his repeated lies- " Katy Perry Tweeted me and said she wanted to be on the show," can come back to bite him.

His funding of Earwolf Podcast network and his propping up Peter Holmes(TBS) is fascinating to watch.

Nick Kroll: Good at business but terrible at comedy. He should take a step back and realize that you can't buy the funny, and that's OK. It's not as if he can't drown his tears with billions of dollars.
