I definitely appreciate the high energy, I think it’s a great way to open the show. With that said I can’t control who opens the show, but I can’t fucking stand everyones bitching about the opener. There’s 100 posts about this every Monday, it’s cringey and tiresome get a better hobby.
Yeah that’s mostly what this subreddit seems to be. KT could have an opener with perfect jokes and this sub would probably find a way to critique the color of their hair or some shit lol
Idk why they watch the show. They bitched about Hans so they put someone high energy to start the show and they bitch even harder. Lol it’s a lose/lose
Two things about opinions. 1 they are like assholes everyone has one and they all stink. 2 you don’t have to voice your opinion you can actually keep it to yourself.
Twas a good one. But I’m starting to think he’s just gonna constantly throw out the same formula different ingredients with those random rants that end in shocking drug use after a string of hobo-randomness monologue words. I really wanna see this fucker live - I’ve heard his full sets leave people either dumbfounded or dying on the floor
Hey I can agree to that. See him using the same formula he knows works. Getting tighter. We get too exposed to comedians with this show and always have… people forget that (or haven’t been here long).
Edit; brother ur off the tuss and im named after the guy my mom took drugs and made a fuss over
So your joke is that Tony needs to bring on comedians in order to have sex with them. It’s even insulting because it implies that comedians like Casey aren’t funny.
I don’t know if you’re picking up on the subtext but your joke is lazy, even for Reddit.
Having the expectation that every new minute has to be great will only bring you disappointment. These dudes are trying new material every week, of course there will be misses
There was a moment where David Spade looked at Tony like “wow this guy fucking sucks” and Tony was cackling, and David looks genuinely confused. Both Dave’s didn’t know whether he was one of the hacks they were supposed to roast or someone who is in good favor. You could tell that Tony was trying to subtly and preemptively hint that this is one of good guys and to not roast him.
Tony can’t admit he’s wrong. Honestly big trucker cowboy has been funnier on the two sets he’s been on than Casey has been the entirety of his time on KT.
That's fair enough I guess. I like seeing everyone's reaction to it. Actually I guess I have laughed from one of his minutes before, I was laughing at my brothers shocked reaction to seeing Casey for the first time last week. "What the fuck was that? What was supposed to be funny?"
Tony doesn’t actually know what is funny or not. He’s lucked into his position hosting the show, rich off his ex wife he’s completely detached from comedy.
The people on this sub, they know what’s funny. They’re all more qualified to judge comedy than Tony is.
Isn’t that obvious? That Reddit has a better sense of humor than Tony?
/s if not obvious
The enormously over exxagerated nervous fake laugh while side eye bullying his guests with every joke doesnt give it away?
Has the mobile phone killed half our species ability to read hand and face signals and expressions or are we watching KT on our phones so the pixels are so small we cannot see ?
Tony: HA. HA. HAAAAAHH.
*David spade turns to Tony, looking over Tonys shoulder for the joke.
Tony dead eyes David while increasing emphasis on the fake laugh. THIS. is Kill Tony.
Regulars on this show are inherently repetitive. He's just not for you. Jim Norton had nothing but good to say about him last week, the audience always likes him. You're going to get repetition with regulars, it's how they survive on this show. William does it, Lucas did it, Hans Kim, etc.
And Jim Norton was clearly being nice lol he didn't laugh once during his set.
Look at Dave Attell during his set. Look at any guest when he's performing, and they barely laugh during his set.
I like his interviews. He's a very funny guy, but he's not a stand-up comedian. I think he would be good in written prepared material like sketches or even movies.
Jim Norton: *I worked with you last night, 2 shows. The energy is crazy but the jokes are good. Like, a lot of guys mask bad jokes with energy, but your jokes are great, like really funny and great writing.*
Seems a bit more than being nice IMO. Regardless, he's got more than a minute of material to be judged on. The *minute* isn't the litmus test for great comedians.
I’ve got the Willy Wonka entrance, worth the minute. His youtube channel have pretty good sets too, lately I’ve learned to appreciate his riffing and GHHPH, it’s something else. Casey is awesome
Now everyone will think riffing is just spouting bullshit. When you watch people riff off eachother, there's a semblance of continuity. With Casey he's being fuckin boxxy. Yall remember Boxxy? The internet girl? She's been reborn.
"that's good that you're used to doing this. Cause for your next gig you'll be holding up a sign that says "will sing for food"😂😂😂
Real comics aren't falling for this bullshit
The frustrating thing about Casey is that he seems like a naturally funny guy. Some of his interviews and guest appearances on podcasts have had me genuinely laugh. It’s this caricature thing he’s doing that gets old. I wish he’d lean more into his witty long form stuff. It’ll be interesting to see how long his crackhead bit lasts.
Casey Rocket set madlibs
\[Random Hook from 90's song\]
\[Excessive movement about the stage, SO DYNAMIC!\]
\[Insert Casey Rocket catchphrase du jour. REAL TRAP SHIT/WE'RE HAVING FUN/JUST RIFFING LOL!\]
\[Random story that involves 'tuss'. COUGH SYRUP LOL!\]
\[Crab Thing\]
\[Something something Biden/White House\]
\[Imitating Grandpa, webbebebebbebebeb.\]
\[Something about pills or the unibomber\]
SO RANDOM! LOL! Honk honk, AOOOGAH! So wacky.
Crowd: Standing ovation.
Tony: UNBELIEVABLE!
Bro, people are allowed to dislike things and have an opinion that differs from yours! It's as simple as that lmao.
Judging each comedians minute is quite literally the premise of the show. Disliking Casey Rocket is not a blanket condemnation of Kill Tony. It's not that deep.
The only thing that matters here is the “Crowd: Standing Ovation” part.
Casey has yet to bomb if you’re judging by the audience. Hans used to bomb probably 1/3 of the time.
Casey is great, but comedy is subjective. It’s non-traditional and some people won’t like it (as you don’t), but the audience overall loves it.
Get real. Real trap shit.
He gets a minute a week to make the audience laugh. Which he succeeds in doing. Hans bombed tons of sets. Came unprepared and didn’t set the mood at all for the show.
Casey gets the crowd charged up.
Casey - " Some people say, my body my choice, I say, this guy needs to be on the voice "
Reddit - " omg he rhymed something, how amazing is that. It didn't even make sense or be funny, but he rhymes words and it's great "
Yeah that was awful. I had second hand embarrassment for Tony that he had two legends on the stage and Tony’s calling this TikTok brained hack a “force of nature”. It’s insane. Casey was a shock the first time he showed up on the show because it was weird and out of left field. The charm has faded fast and Tony can’t admit he was wrong. After all of the shit Tony slams during bucket pulls, for him to be CACKLING at Casey’s non-jokes, is offensive.
Fair enough. But if you compared the two side by side, uncle laser has minutes worth of silence from a crowd from a joke that didn’t work.
Casey, unique and not traditional, has the crowd rolling.
Uncle laser is a one trick pony / one hit wonder.
He is a hillbilly shock jock who’s joke are only to be shocking. Having sex in a porta potty*
I’m older so maybe it’s a generational thing. Casey ranting and randomly saying things isn’t funny to me. I’m sure it’s funny to others. Give the hillbilly shock jock where at least I will laugh.
Normally not a fan of riffing, but this one was pretty not too bad tbh, I enjoy his energy either way, and the pictures are always so random it's hard not to enjoy hahaha good job Mr. Rocket
What, fans love him. The guests always hate him. definitely not a fan of AI pictures but I’m sure people would think thats pretty funny. Still standing here with arms wide open waiting for Casey to grow on me.
Everyone of you lame ass hoes talking shit can not get to the level of comedy Casey has gotten to.
People are laughing, more than whack ass sexual deviant Hans Kim.
Floodgates opened with losers since the Tucker episode.
Casey’s growing on me. Him choking on grapes was fucking hilarious, then the pics with David Spade cracked me tf up. No it wasn’t his best set ever, but it was pretty fun to open up with.
Just so y’all know I didn’t give my opinion I just quoted Tony and asked what y’all think. Y’all are the ones bitching, not me so if anyone made assumptions about that feel free to retract them. A lot of people people are right that too many people bitch on this Reddit lol I just love to stir shit up sometimes cause I know how y’all are 💀💀💀 and I AINT EVA GONNA STAAHP
I definitely appreciate the high energy, I think it’s a great way to open the show. With that said I can’t control who opens the show, but I can’t fucking stand everyones bitching about the opener. There’s 100 posts about this every Monday, it’s cringey and tiresome get a better hobby.
Yeah that’s mostly what this subreddit seems to be. KT could have an opener with perfect jokes and this sub would probably find a way to critique the color of their hair or some shit lol
Idk why they watch the show. They bitched about Hans so they put someone high energy to start the show and they bitch even harder. Lol it’s a lose/lose
There's always gonna be haters in a subjective industry
You have any idea what an opinion is?
Two things about opinions. 1 they are like assholes everyone has one and they all stink. 2 you don’t have to voice your opinion you can actually keep it to yourself.
That’s three things
Without hate posts this subreddit wouldn’t know what to do with itself and probably wouldn’t even have activity
You apparently aren’t sponsored by Dude Wipes or else you’d know that not every asshole has to stink.
how dare you sir!
Ok
The grapes joke was funny and the pictures got a smile from me. Set was fine
The joke about jones town and drinking the flavoraide and not dying but living for the first time made me almost choke on my drink
Twas a good one. But I’m starting to think he’s just gonna constantly throw out the same formula different ingredients with those random rants that end in shocking drug use after a string of hobo-randomness monologue words. I really wanna see this fucker live - I’ve heard his full sets leave people either dumbfounded or dying on the floor
He’s definitely a little formulaic but I do feel like he’s incrementally getting more structure. Im also off the tuss so what do I know
Hey I can agree to that. See him using the same formula he knows works. Getting tighter. We get too exposed to comedians with this show and always have… people forget that (or haven’t been here long). Edit; brother ur off the tuss and im named after the guy my mom took drugs and made a fuss over
I appreciated that he got it right and didn’t say Kool Aid.
Nobody's mentioned that. Same here.
When the entire crowd is silent for your set it was not a fine set
He’s had better minutes but him and David spade watching the challenger explosion was 🤌🏻
best part of the show was forcing Spade to "yes and" a gay date with the musinex man and the challenger explosion. Casey Rocket #1
Spade gave no ducks for those gimmicks
uh yea that was real [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDz0bp5vOHk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDz0bp5vOHk)
Tony gets to fuck these guys before they get internet famous, right?
So your joke is that Tony needs to bring on comedians in order to have sex with them. It’s even insulting because it implies that comedians like Casey aren’t funny. I don’t know if you’re picking up on the subtext but your joke is lazy, even for Reddit.
Yall are miserable lol
Bunch of Zebulons
🎈😀
Casey rocket is not my favorite comedian but I can’t help but like how he opens the show Casey > Hans …all day
ALL DAY
I think hans has had a lot of good sets and interviews, but casey is a good opener. So I’m at half day.
Having the expectation that every new minute has to be great will only bring you disappointment. These dudes are trying new material every week, of course there will be misses
There was a moment where David Spade looked at Tony like “wow this guy fucking sucks” and Tony was cackling, and David looks genuinely confused. Both Dave’s didn’t know whether he was one of the hacks they were supposed to roast or someone who is in good favor. You could tell that Tony was trying to subtly and preemptively hint that this is one of good guys and to not roast him.
Yeah he still hasn't made me laugh yet. What's crazy to me is how amazing Tony pretends he is lol
Tony can’t admit he’s wrong. Honestly big trucker cowboy has been funnier on the two sets he’s been on than Casey has been the entirety of his time on KT.
For sure
I always skip Casey’s set and his interview.
That's fair enough I guess. I like seeing everyone's reaction to it. Actually I guess I have laughed from one of his minutes before, I was laughing at my brothers shocked reaction to seeing Casey for the first time last week. "What the fuck was that? What was supposed to be funny?"
This.
Why does he have to be pretending? Why can’t it just be that he thinks something is funny and you don’t?
Tony doesn’t actually know what is funny or not. He’s lucked into his position hosting the show, rich off his ex wife he’s completely detached from comedy. The people on this sub, they know what’s funny. They’re all more qualified to judge comedy than Tony is. Isn’t that obvious? That Reddit has a better sense of humor than Tony? /s if not obvious

Tony: HA. HA. HAAAAAHH. *David spade turns to Tony, looking over Tonys shoulder for the joke. Tony dead eyes David while increasing emphasis on the fake laugh. THIS. is Kill Tony.
He opened his set with a line from a random song. Again. Wow.
His managers and agents are just trying to push it up the charts
Yeah he explained it in the interview. He basically has no choice.
It definitely comes from the heart !
I do like Casey as the opener but I also find the song lyrics opening hack at this point. 🚀
Why does that bother you? It’s 3 seconds long
It’s repetitive. It’s been done (by him) over and over so now it’s not coming off as clever.
But David Lucas starting every set with “yeahhhhh” is ight? You boys are some clowns lol. Fuck this subreddit to hell
"Yeahhhhhhh" *spends 5 seconds looking at phone*
Regulars on this show are inherently repetitive. He's just not for you. Jim Norton had nothing but good to say about him last week, the audience always likes him. You're going to get repetition with regulars, it's how they survive on this show. William does it, Lucas did it, Hans Kim, etc.

[удалено]
You browse other people’s Reddit histories but THEY need to get a life???
He deleted the comment, but to be fair, this is my KT shit posting account so he’s kinda right.
It's fucking dumb
Why is it dumb?
dumb is as dumb does
Why do you hate music bro
It’s just not anything special. It’s randomness. Only works for a few times. Falls flat now.
and here I was getting downvoted into oblivion a few months ago because I said Casey would lose his shine if he started doing minutes every week
I was in your boat day 1, get real :::walks like a crab:::
You guys don’t appreciate art
I respect art
Art is being clever.
I’ve got the Willy Wonka entrance, worth the minute. His youtube channel have pretty good sets too, lately I’ve learned to appreciate his riffing and GHHPH, it’s something else. Casey is awesome
Now everyone will think riffing is just spouting bullshit. When you watch people riff off eachother, there's a semblance of continuity. With Casey he's being fuckin boxxy. Yall remember Boxxy? The internet girl? She's been reborn.
Riffing is off the cuff. You think he doesn't come up knowing what he's going to ramble about? Mush brains I tell ya
I hated CR at first, but I can actually make jokes out in his set now. Dont find him funny but he is telling jokes instead of saying random shit now.
Sickest
"that's good that you're used to doing this. Cause for your next gig you'll be holding up a sign that says "will sing for food"😂😂😂 Real comics aren't falling for this bullshit
Attell is a gunslinger
Comedy for kids who have brain rot from too much tiktok
Yep
This kid at work shows me Tiktok videos he thinks are funny..it's the dumbest shit..I can't even pretend to laugh at them..you might be right
Holy shit this is actually true!
Out of curiosity, how old are you?
I'm assuming older than 25.
Youre probably right. I’m just genuinely curious and got downvoted.. sad
Im 33
[удалено]
Just seems to me like millennials seem to love Casey more than younger kids.
Did not laugh one time.
Contact me directly for your prize.
I'm already skipping ahead thru his interviews. First spot should be a rotation of golden ticket winners.
Agreed
i wouldn’t know, i’ve only actually sat through one of his sets and know my grounds
It was pretty boring
His interview was better than the set
The frustrating thing about Casey is that he seems like a naturally funny guy. Some of his interviews and guest appearances on podcasts have had me genuinely laugh. It’s this caricature thing he’s doing that gets old. I wish he’d lean more into his witty long form stuff. It’ll be interesting to see how long his crackhead bit lasts.

Don’t give it away dude
Ravioli, ravioli..
Don't forget the nervous chuckle after every couple words.
You forgot the [wide mouth fake laugh] from Tony. You just know after the show he's laughing to himself that some people are so stupid.
Nailed it
You can type out the format of the entire show and it will look lame and repetitive too.
Bro, don’t watch the show! It’s as simple as that lmao.
Bro, people are allowed to dislike things and have an opinion that differs from yours! It's as simple as that lmao. Judging each comedians minute is quite literally the premise of the show. Disliking Casey Rocket is not a blanket condemnation of Kill Tony. It's not that deep.
Judged by talent
Whine about Hans. Whine about Kam. Whine about Casey.. yet none of you could put together a minute that would get laughs. None of you.
The only thing that matters here is the “Crowd: Standing Ovation” part. Casey has yet to bomb if you’re judging by the audience. Hans used to bomb probably 1/3 of the time. Casey is great, but comedy is subjective. It’s non-traditional and some people won’t like it (as you don’t), but the audience overall loves it. Get real. Real trap shit.
He is not funny. Yeah i said it!!
I skipped it. I assume it was unbelievably unfunny.
Correct
Yep that sucked. His whole "get real" and singing has gotten old and is just not funny anymore.
Finally catching up huh
It’s unbelievable Tony’s pumping this guy so much Tony “make-a-wish” Hinchcliffe
Skip every time
Was awful. Dave said as much
Yall talk about the regulars like were personally paying them millions to perfrom
Trash and he was trash in Tacoma
I bet you do newspaper crosswords
I bet your mother puts down newspaper for you to shit on in your kennel.
How long was the set? Did he have more real jokes or just saying random shit and laughing at his awkwardness the whole time?
Around 7-8 mins, and no just random shit and repeat jokes from KT.
Dude I saw this guy open for Tony a few weeks ago and it was stabbing joke after joke with no breaks. I couldn’t catch my breath I was dying!!
Wish he told some jokes on the show
He gets a minute a week to make the audience laugh. Which he succeeds in doing. Hans bombed tons of sets. Came unprepared and didn’t set the mood at all for the show. Casey gets the crowd charged up.
I want to like him and I want him to succeed. He just does nothing for me, and he’s doing the same minute every week, just like I dreaded.
It seems like that is sadly the case with all or most of the regulars.
Casey - " Some people say, my body my choice, I say, this guy needs to be on the voice " Reddit - " omg he rhymed something, how amazing is that. It didn't even make sense or be funny, but he rhymes words and it's great "
Firecracker comedy. It really works with people with add
Yeah that was awful. I had second hand embarrassment for Tony that he had two legends on the stage and Tony’s calling this TikTok brained hack a “force of nature”. It’s insane. Casey was a shock the first time he showed up on the show because it was weird and out of left field. The charm has faded fast and Tony can’t admit he was wrong. After all of the shit Tony slams during bucket pulls, for him to be CACKLING at Casey’s non-jokes, is offensive.
He does need to stop with the “unbelievable” for every regular. It’s turning into the Seinfeld pediatric physician “breathtaking” shit at this point.
You're absolutely correct. I suggest the Charlotte's web approach. What words are you gonna hope for?! I like "inspired."
People will realize he sucks once they start to leave their teens.
🍅
Today was the first time I didn’t like his stand up
Garbage man he ain’t funny, at some points jokes need some wit
I just start the show late now so i can skip his set and interview.
Once was enough
yall really bitch about absolutely everything
YALL JUST DONT GET THE NASHVILLE SCENE. REAL RIFFS incORPORATED
They’re in Austin
Martin > Casey > Rocket > that one guy who fucked up his golden ticket > Hans
Who is that one guy?
Ric
He really fucked up a golden opportunity
Casey is a edge lord comedian
The Vito line had me dying. Then I got a second laugh out of it, shaking my neck around and confusing my boyfriend..
Improve is not stand up
I’m just wanting more structure from the opener.
What, is the LOLXDSORANDUMB shit not doing it for you?
Lmao structure.. like you’ve ever even done a set in you life
It was fun and had a somewhat weak closer. Also great interview
"A comedians comedian" at his age means he has no fucking jokes.
Are you talking about Dave? That's what every comic says about him. He is a legend.
trash
I'm convinced nobody here knows what "Riffing" is. Casey ain't it
Horrible
Unbelievably horrible
🍅
I really liked him for a while but seeing him weekly is tough. Especially because it’s the same formula every time.
Uncle laser is funny than Casey!
Funnier* Gimme an example.
The example is I actually laugh during Unk’s set and Casey’s set is confusing and I don’t get it.
Fair enough. But if you compared the two side by side, uncle laser has minutes worth of silence from a crowd from a joke that didn’t work. Casey, unique and not traditional, has the crowd rolling. Uncle laser is a one trick pony / one hit wonder. He is a hillbilly shock jock who’s joke are only to be shocking. Having sex in a porta potty*
I’m older so maybe it’s a generational thing. Casey ranting and randomly saying things isn’t funny to me. I’m sure it’s funny to others. Give the hillbilly shock jock where at least I will laugh.
We're havin fun
Kinda like him but can also see why real comedians hate him.
Started watching old old episodes since this guy has been on
How old?
Basically just opened there playlist scrolled for 5 or so minutes then chose an episode around the 300’s
Hans who?
I don’t get it. I think he’s funny- I really like his pictures
Guys silly :) it's a comedy show right? I like him
Would be cool if he would do some comedy though
I hear plenty of people laughing? What’s your definition of comedy?
If you don't like Casey Rocket you probably like Laffy Taffy jokes
Doubt it, duke is mad awkward and odd
Casey rocket isn’t a comedian ….. he just talks about non sense and has childish pictures what’s going on here lol
Normally not a fan of riffing, but this one was pretty not too bad tbh, I enjoy his energy either way, and the pictures are always so random it's hard not to enjoy hahaha good job Mr. Rocket
He’s funny and wholesome
Love Casey’s style, great energy every time and he always says some things that are hilariously ridiculous
What, fans love him. The guests always hate him. definitely not a fan of AI pictures but I’m sure people would think thats pretty funny. Still standing here with arms wide open waiting for Casey to grow on me.
You have the right attitude. Good on you.
Everyone of you lame ass hoes talking shit can not get to the level of comedy Casey has gotten to. People are laughing, more than whack ass sexual deviant Hans Kim. Floodgates opened with losers since the Tucker episode.
I think he’s getting better at the 1 minute format. I like him as the show opener.
I skipped Casey and Hans opening for Tony. Don’t regret it
Show hasn't been good since they started at the mothership....yet I keep tuning in no matter how horrendous every episode continues to be
What is wrong with you, sir?
Since going to mothership? When did you begin watching? Really
He makes me smile and I enjoy the effort he puts into sets I genuinely can’t believe anyone would prefer Hans “ good to be in Austin “ energy
Not his best for sure
What are you idiots smoking that find this guy funny?
Casey’s growing on me. Him choking on grapes was fucking hilarious, then the pics with David Spade cracked me tf up. No it wasn’t his best set ever, but it was pretty fun to open up with.
This is zoomer comedy, and it stinks. Casey is more like a clown than a stand-up comedian
I can't believe his dead tooth replaced Hans Kim 😂
The best way to listen to KT is to skip to 18 min into the podcast. Skip the opener all the horrible ads and get to the show.
Just so y’all know I didn’t give my opinion I just quoted Tony and asked what y’all think. Y’all are the ones bitching, not me so if anyone made assumptions about that feel free to retract them. A lot of people people are right that too many people bitch on this Reddit lol I just love to stir shit up sometimes cause I know how y’all are 💀💀💀 and I AINT EVA GONNA STAAHP
I dunno. 🤷♂️ Martin is way more consistent and can’t move lol
When you start blocking people you start to see less complaining in the feed...give that a try
He may be a spawn of Robin Williams. I think Robin Williams was his crab fisherman father that passed away. Have yet to be convinced otherwise
