If it's a joke it isn't funny.
That's really the biggest Issue I have with Corey, he's only funny when he Isn't trying to be, and I feel like nowadays he tries to be funny but his rotted brain is too stupid to actually make a coherent sentence let alone a joke.
Back in the day Chris and his friends used to tard wrangle Cory when he got overly spergy and annoying. He'd tell him to shut up pretty frequently on the Sleepycast and even in the early episodes of Oneyplay.
Lyle is pretty good at that, but I do wonder if they purposely let Corey go off the rails for content since some people really like it when Corey start yelling over stupid shit. I really like the one clip from sonic generations where Lyle and Corey are talking about Sonic Frontiers and Lyle just keeps shutting down Corey when he tries to say the trailer didn't look bad.

Oh dude they 1000% do. They know a large chunk of the audience loves his ranting and allow him to go on and on with it. To me though the shit about Coke Coffee, or Wal-mart or whatever mundane thing he's upset with and is yelling about is simply annoying. Cory also clearly knows the audience likes it so he will do forced rants that you can tell he's not even really passionate about. It just sucks. The older I get the less funny his manchild rage becomes.
 
The problem was that they already had Chills do a one liner and any more was frowned on for budgetary reasons. That's why if they wanted Chris Chan they needed to include him more, which in their eyes would ruin the joke. So its possible they could get some newgrounds person for something but likely at the expense of another strange cameo.
Smiling Friends is also huge now. I'm sure they were having these problems during the show's early drafts. But I feel like by this point, when Smiling Friends is on pace to be Adult Swim's #1 show. Adult Swim would be doing themselves a disservice by not allowing them more freedom with what they can do.
 
Zach did a podcast (I think something that was a spinoff of Vsauce) about getting people to do voices and that his hands were literally tied when it came to getting some people. Before Christchan's SuperSayinJin saga, he wanted to get Chris to voice an oily puddle for an episode, just for a single line, but couldnt unless he voiced more lines/characters. Zach has an ear for cringe, and I'm sure if there weren't gatekeepers in the industry (or regulations) the whole show would be nothing but Newgrounders left and right in every episode.
The Create Unknown. Here's the clip:

Also not to go off topic, but remember Otto Heckel, the OneyPlays compilation maker that sometimes broke off from the compilations and went into... interesting directions?

He's being interesting again.
 
I wanted to balance out my Cory hate with a Cory moment that makes me tear up laughing

I thought YouTube wiped that vid, but apparently he's just channeling that OP energy and reuploaded it after a few minor edits:
Yeah I mean it's not surprising if you know anything about his blog.

I forget what video it was but in a recent video Corey was raging and they asked "Wait, are you actually mad?" and he replied "Oh, no it was just a bit"
 
He doesn’t upload very frequently, but Sassy has been making videos again on a new channel. Some feel quite like the videos he used to make, like this one here:

At least he finally dropped that retarded filter he was putting on his voice. Made his stuff totally unwatchable.
By the way, does anyone else remember Sassy buying ads for his channel on fucking Hentai Foundry of all places?
 
this is why i don't like cory, he doesn't make any jokes, anything remotely funny that he does is him being genuinely retarded and autistic, and 90% of the videos with him are just him screaming and ranting about dumb shit or interrupting whatever the other guys in the video are trying to say...
The problem is, Cory is actually funny. But not when he actively decides to be. He can be funny by accident and on purpose, but these things have to come to him naturally in the moment. He cannot be "funny on command".

He has "too aware of own audience" syndrome, which renders any genuinely funny entertainer into a tryhard hack.
He noticed people liked it when he occasionally screamed or ranted, but could not understand what it was about it that was well-received. So now he does it a lot because people seem to like it.

It's much more obvious with Game Grumps, but the person essentially flanderizes themself.

The biggest problem for Cory being funny is that neither the OneyPlays crew, the audiences and especially Cory himself have zero clue as to how or when he can be funny
 
Was listening to some sleepycast and I just find it funny how Nial is the one who catches the most shit. Every group has that guy, and Ol Cryburger being the designated shitting street is so funny. Particularly because he had a tendency of taking it personally. Like when he was compared to old playstation graphics :story:
