My first experience with JonTron was watching him play Guts on SNES on GameGrumps. He knew the controls but Arin didn't and he refused to tell Arin how to play because according to him it wouldn't be fair and it would give Arin an advantage. I just remember thinking that doesn't make sense and thinking he was a jerk >_>. He never really redeemed himself for me.

That's the worst first impression possible. Way worse than any political stuff he's talked about. He was such a dick that episode. lol

There was a lot of other stuff that Jon was petty about. I remember his discussion of Wolf being a clone during the Smash video. Overall I think Jon was more interesting on the show than the dude they got to replace him, because there was more tension. It's probably funnier with the other guy though.

It is. With Jon it really just seemed to be a lot of arguing coupled with Jon's screeching and drunk rambles. Now it's just two friends who like to play games and often devolves into interesting stories between the two of them. Much more calming and more of a podcast of sorts.

I like to watch GameGrumps while doing other things just because I like to hear Danny and Arin talk about whatever.

I was a fan of the JonTron show before I started watching GameGrumps. I didn't even know who Arin was in the Star Wars videos Jon did. I had heard of GameGrumps but I couldn't bring myself to start watching a Let's Play video but when I did start it appealed to me and kept watching. I'm not a fan of Jon's GameGrump days since Dan is much better and Jon is better suited to making his own videos IMO.

I'm not really a big fan of calming entertainment. I like the idea of someone saying something out of bounds at any moment. Makes it more addicting to listen to.

Jon's quarrelsomeness never bothered me because it annoyed Arin to no end, and I never liked passive aggressive Arin in any incarnation of Game Grumps. I didn't really like Jon's personality either, in fact he is kind of a monster in his personal life, but as a producer of content I have at least that respect for Jon. He is probably the best YouTuber out there, even if it does take him awhile to get things done. Arin's personality and content both kind of annoy me.

he was right in that situation though

they decided to play a game to see who would win and he figured out the controls first. He didn't go into the game with that knowledge.

That still happens with Danny.

There was an episode quite a long time ago in fact where Arin was talking about the D Club he was in with friends where he and other straight boys would all whip out their penises and smack them around and laugh about it, and once Danny went and got confirmation from Suzy that Arin was being serious they had a long back and forth about if that was gay.

Lmao that's hillarious. Arin always seemed like a weird dude and JonTron has always been a bit confrontational.

Danny is just a wonderful human who brightens up anything he's around, though. I don't watch a ton of GameGrumps but JonTron was always more "spontaneously" funny and entertaining while Danny is just always so fucking pleasant. His good-naturedness makes things funnier, and Arin was really lucky to find him because Arin is not the best Let's Player... By himself.

Danny's pretty good at improv and has some really funny voices, which both come in handy when he's reading the dialogue for some characters in games they play.

I especially love his old man voice, which is good because he uses it for every old man ever. >_>

His character voices aren't surprising because he has an excellent vocal range (Like his Take On Me cover shows). I can personally vouch that having wide tonal range and practicing it a lot allows you to imitate a LOT of great voices.

But yeah, he's a funny dude still. I just think Jon can get much more emphasis and surprise out of his gameplay commentary, which is important for the genre.

I don't get how people can dislike Danny. If you simply prefer Jon to him that's one thing, but to actually NOT like him as a part of Game Grumps? Like come on. I always see people complain that he's just some hippy Jewish but like come on.

I mean if you don't like Ninja Sex Party and you know him previously from that then I suppose I could see that but how many people does that apply to?

In terms of ad revenue? Not a lot, which probably explains why he doesn't upload as much videos are he normally does.

Anyways watched the episode, didn't find it all to funny but I do appreciate the amount of hard work he puts into most video he makes like AVGN.

1. Richards was making a joke. A bad, offensive joke, but a joke. Jontron was voicing his opinions.

2. The laugh factory incident was 8 years after Seinfeld ended. Jontron is still making videos.

3. Seinfeld is funny. Jontron isn't.

I think Michael Richards wasn't making a joke OR voicing his opinion (even though it was probably subconscious). He lost his temper at hecklers, and attacked the first thing he thought of to piss them off. If they were fat, he probably would have used that on them.

And, even though Seinfeld was in reruns, I do remember some groups wanting it taken off the air.

And as a comedian they're usually quicker on the draw with something better than that.
