Lance R @RT32436283 20h It was decent up until episode 6 where Chelsea came in and demanded world events be in their work and forced crowd work. From that point it seemed like forced jokes for a few of them and jokes about politics with only Chelsea laughing. Otherwise they were just kinda cringe. All the raw comedians are funny though See more Edward S @RT63293062 2d Everyone on this show was funny except Kevin Hart. He is insufferable. See more K H. @RT24994281 3d Very entertaining. Must be hard to be a comedian. The winner surprised me, but well deserved See more Live M @RT05874310 6d The comics were the reason for a couple of stars. Kevin Hart used the " I " word 1100 times during the series. His ego was like a little spoiled child. It was almost unwatchable when Hart spoke and over hosted. His special guests gave no input and could of been used much more effectively on the entertainment side of this series. Some famous comic guests sat on a couch and said , " you killed it , great set. " NO real input at all. I did not like the format to get to the top 2 by adding 2 more to make it the top 4 making the finals. The best comic did not win here. He , at best , should of came in fourth but so be it. The problem was 1st place gets a Netflix hour special which is very good. 3rd and 4th place will be touring with Nikki Glaser (these were the top 2 in my opinion and Glaser saw this) and the 2nd place comic got nothing but " your phone will ring ". I enjoyed it but Hart could of less hosted about 75% or more. Hart being so short equates to a giant ego. See more Richard M @BigRichard May 17 Horrible. WTH is with all the commentary from Hart & the others throughout the entire show. It's off-putting. We know why it's done, Kevin can't have the show actually run for a couple minutes without him being on the screen & the focal point. The stupid things said during their breakdowns of the comics was excruciating. Hart controlled this entire show, it's so obvious. He left out some funny individuals & kept a few that were the worst. A few just literally yelled & had energy, said absolutely nothing remotely funny. This was bad, really bad. That said, I think the comics did the best they could while being put in a no win situation. This show's about Kevin Harts ego, it stinks because he doesn't have a clue how to put a good idea, I guarantee someone else brought to him to fruition. Again, great job comics under the circumstances! Remember, high energy, yelling stupidity across the stage isn't funny to most individuals. He screwed up his own Roast! Kevin should never hold the keys. See more Blu3d B @RT43654485 May 16 Another miss from Kevin. Just ends with a bunch of woke lowest denominator libturd losers with no lives or accomplishments to be found among any of them. I love Kev but if I were him and these losers were my front-runners I would have called it quits. See more Read all reviews
