    I don't necessarily dislike the new Collegehumor staff, but some of the older sketchers are genuinely brilliant. This one's hilarious and so many subtitles, like the casual anti-semitism or how he snatches Vinnie's book. Such a good era for the channel

      Agreed with the level of complexity being much higher with the old cast. The new sketches are here’s a concept e.g if people acted the way they acted on dating apps in real life. Then it’s just a series of amusing examples played against various straight men. It’s one dimensional

      @scepteredisle 3 года назад +4

      the new staff are objectively bad and don't put jokes in their sketches. IT's OK to admit this. It's ok to point out the good actors/actresses they have are given crap material and the rest are useless diversity hires who are worthless and would never be more than a background character in the olden days.

    • @zackmash851
      @zackmash851 3 года назад +7

      a lot of old collegehumor was driven by outside forces of comedy, like in this video where the intense and hilarious jon gabrus showcases his talents. and these people brought in not only their humor and skills to the writing side but also helped the staff at the time harness their improv powers. this eras staff was funniest for the same reason often say "jake and amir is the pinnacle of CH", because much of it was genuine riffing and on the spot ideas that ended up being brilliant
