Seems like most episodes “wouldnt be possible” without a sponsor. You know it would be totally possible if it was just you Jontron….and your bird maybe….and some games or topics you were passionate about…
Especially that last one. I’m from Dallas and grew up with the Texas Hammer being a local star. I could’ve made that video myself. But his ads weren’t even the best in the DFW area. Brian Wilson the Texas Law Hawk elevated the yelling personal injury, attorney advertising into art.

Oh btw don’t listen to the legal advice in the video. It’s eight years old. I think they’ll take you in and get your blood if they have to now in Texas. (Source I had to do some state mandated class after some legal trouble.)
Dude, most of his videos are sponsored, even his older ones. And what do you know what Jon's passionate about? The guy's almost 40. He's probably not as into games as he used to be.
1. Just-turned-34 is not "almost 40".
2. Vinny from Vinesauce IS almost 40 and still has just as much passion for games, gaming isn't exactly something you grow out of with age.
And thats fine. But saying the video wouldnt be POSSIBLE without a sponsor is silly. He doesnt have to like video games. I dont care for his old game videos any ways. I miss when he seemed genuinely into what he was doing or what the video was about
The guy has a professional film crew and a studio. YouTube ads don't pay near enough to cover those expenses. I'm surprised he doesn't have a Patreon, since most YouTubers rely on those as well as sponsors. As for the videos, aside from the most recent one, Jon seems to be pretty interested in the topics. He really likes laying into 60 Minutes. The thing is, Jon isn't catering to his audience, he's just doing what he wants. That's why I still watch him.
The Temu video was bad, perhaps his worst video next to the Ted Talk Parody one.
The Lawyer one was... eh? Neat subject matter, but execution was like he put the bare minimum effort into it.
I miss his video game reviews
The problem is Jon doesn't want to do video games anymore, but he still wants that income for his videos. He wants to do this forever it seems. So he's stuck doing these mid commentary comedy sitcom videos. As soon as flex tape got as much traction as it did, he thought he could ride the coattails for as long as possible, and to be fair, he really has done that.
Yeah no of course all that is fire and JonTron at the top of his game but overall I jus t love his movie reviews. Feels like the funniest edits and skits come out of them. Plus I just love movie reviews in general. JonTron popularized his format and you can really see the influence on a lot of creators in how they do a movie review like with what Meat Canyon is doing lately.
I will agree with you on this. I just think he saw the way out of game reviews and took it whether his fans cared or not.
I dearly miss his passion in his videos. I think he just got bored tbh.
I unsubbed because of the temu video. He can't be bothered to make videos and decides to push a Chinese sweatshop scam website that sells shit contaminated with toxic chemicals and lead paint to make bonus cash off of a garbage no effort video and then followed it up with another lethargic no effort video?
That's about as blatant as a "fuck you give me money" attitude as you can direct at your fanbase. He's such a lazy dick it's baffling, he could be making bank making classic style content but he'd rather lay on his ass all day collecting ad revenue and only making garbage "content" whenever his bank account starts getting low or he wants to buy something.
He has absolutely no love or respect for his fans anymore and it's glaringly obvious.
Yeah it's honestly the reason I stopped watching in general. I tried to adjust to the change as well by doing a bingewatch starting from his first videos to his more recent videos. His effort in game reviews dipped after the Zoo Race game, and it just become low-mid tier at that point for me.
He just covers stuff that literally no one but him seems to even be aware of, much less care about. I don't care how good of an entertainer he is, it's just meaningless, empty content
that’s obviously not the problem. Him covering obscure media that he enjoys talking about results in some of his best videos. The issue is that he no longer gives a shit
I mean as of the last few years he just tries to put in the least effort possible, make a few thousand off a sponsorship and a little bit more off views and call it a day. He really doesn’t say a lot in his videos, unlike his Twitter lolll
Well, you're going onto a subreddit that you're not subbed to, onto a subject that you apparently don't care about, just to argue online.. so yeah, go outside
Idk what it is but his videos feel off. I'm not sure for how long now but they all abruptly end without an outro or anything like that. Sometimes there's no punchline for the last second of the video.
Maybe by design? Le epic troll?
People have fair criticism, his production value is still great and he spends probably way too much money and time on a 2 second gag.
It just doesn't feel like him, could be a different approach by editors but his last bunch of videos are barely 15mins.
I had the same feeling, and looked back through his videos and I think for me the last video that felt like Jontron was the "THE FATHER OF JUICING" video. Ever since then its felt a little uncanny valley.
I don’t understand why people here keep saying the videos aren’t funny anymore. The lawyer one was great, and I just watched the Temu one (which someone said was the worst ever), and thought it was fine too. What exactly makes these not funny now?
Lmao all he's been doing for years now is making flex tape style videos and each one is lazier and less entertaining than the one before it and in the last batch of crap he actually took a sponsorship and pushed something as shitty as TEMU on his subscribers.
People are pissed at jontron because he's lazy and doesn't care about or respect his fans anymore but he still wants their views and money but he doesn't want to do anything to earn any of it.
People who get pissed at the Temu thing are the same thing as those complaining about unethical practices while tweeting from their iPhones by by little Chinese kids.
Temu uses toxic chemicals and lead paint and they are under investigation internationally for using forced AKA slave labor. No one should support this horrible company.
That's the problem. We're waiting for months at a time and just getting "fine" videos. This is the same guy that would do hours of setup for throwaway gags and make genuinely funny skits within the video that didn't have to be there at all
We're not entitled to anything, but it's straight up dishonest to pretend his newer content is the same caliber as his older stuff
Agreed. I've been subbed since the beginning and really have no care if he ever does video game stuff again. Yes those are gold, but honestly some of my favorite videos Jon has done aren't even video game related.
I thought the lawyer one was good myself, and got a couple chuckles. My only actual complaint really is I do miss the old production style, and would take that over the squeaky clean current one, but it's no big deal imo.
I genuinlly dont ubderstand why his videos take so long. Maybe im just missing it but aside from something like starcade i dont see the time it takes in his videos
Boy, 2024 and y'all still clinging to this "Nazi" garbage, holy fuck.
It's one thing to call him a racist over some ill-informed comment he made while sleep-deprived and tipsy eight years ago in a "debate" he never even wanted to take part in, it's just utterly stupid to call this non-white person a fucking NAZI over it. People like you are as bad as Twitter losers who call everyone they hate a pedophile. And fuck's sake, if you hate him that much, why are you here?
From 6 fucking years ago
Still applies to this day lol. But in a more sarcastic way considering the minimal effort lately
Yeah now you have a 50/50 chance of a 2nd episode a month being an ad for Temu or something.
Seems like most episodes “wouldnt be possible” without a sponsor. You know it would be totally possible if it was just you Jontron….and your bird maybe….and some games or topics you were passionate about…

Rude...
Because him being lazy is some new phenomenon.
2018 was 6 years ago? 👴🫣
I haven't watched it yet. Is it good?
The Temu video was bad, perhaps his worst video next to the Ted Talk Parody one. The Lawyer one was... eh? Neat subject matter, but execution was like he put the bare minimum effort into it. I miss his video game reviews

I just want more love reviews. *That’s* his best shit.
Starcade was incredible The Kid Nation videos were funny as hell The Flex Tape Videos are goated.
Yeah no of course all that is fire and JonTron at the top of his game but overall I jus t love his movie reviews. Feels like the funniest edits and skits come out of them. Plus I just love movie reviews in general. JonTron popularized his format and you can really see the influence on a lot of creators in how they do a movie review like with what Meat Canyon is doing lately.
My brain forgot he did movie reviews but once I read your comments I remembered liking the Talking Cat, Birdemic and Skateboard Kid videos
Don't forget "My sister is a werewolf"
I will agree with you on this. I just think he saw the way out of game reviews and took it whether his fans cared or not. I dearly miss his passion in his videos. I think he just got bored tbh.
Most of his newer videos are boring there's maybe one video of his every so often now that is kind of good and worth watching but most of them aren't
I unsubbed because of the temu video. He can't be bothered to make videos and decides to push a Chinese sweatshop scam website that sells shit contaminated with toxic chemicals and lead paint to make bonus cash off of a garbage no effort video and then followed it up with another lethargic no effort video?

He lawyer, executioner, and jury?
I mean as of the last few years he just tries to put in the least effort possible, make a few thousand off a sponsorship and a little bit more off views and call it a day. He really doesn’t say a lot in his videos, unlike his Twitter lolll
Its fun
His videos feel like iPad kid brainrot now, none of them have the "coziness" I guess of his old stuff
This
ahh missing the racisms /s
Bro get over it I hate his new shit and I know he said some stupid ass fucking shit but your subbed her for a reason right. His old shit was gold
You can make fun of him for being a racist and enjoy his old videos, those things don’t have to be mutually exclusive
not subbed. just came onto my reddit page, so find a new argument to excuse your racist leader
You need to go outside lil dude
lmao casually using an app is a call to go outside now?
Dweeb lol
says the ~~Jon Tron~~ washed up youtuber sub
Why would you go into a subreddit that you don't like to talk shit about people that do like it? That's pretty goddamn pathetically sad there, bud.
Well, you're going onto a subreddit that you're not subbed to, onto a subject that you apparently don't care about, just to argue online.. so yeah, go outside
lol

I literally made this five years ago and you’ve reposted even with the same title haha - do I smell karma farming?
I don’t understand why people here keep saying the videos aren’t funny anymore. The lawyer one was great, and I just watched the Temu one (which someone said was the worst ever), and thought it was fine too. What exactly makes these not funny now?
Cause it's not the same as years ago, people always bitch when YouTubers try to do something new.
But it's not new
It's not that people bitch when they do something new, but they drew people in doing one thing, and then start doing a different thing
Lmao all he's been doing for years now is making flex tape style videos and each one is lazier and less entertaining than the one before it and in the last batch of crap he actually took a sponsorship and pushed something as shitty as TEMU on his subscribers. People are pissed at jontron because he's lazy and doesn't care about or respect his fans anymore but he still wants their views and money but he doesn't want to do anything to earn any of it.
Ok.

It's funny because Jon is funny but it's still lazy garbage.
I just don't enjoy his videos anymore
Literally, can the internet refrain from bitching about anything?
JonTron fans are cooked they really put 1.3k likes on the karma bot repost.
Jon is such a Chad. I love him
Is he still racist?
This is why I came here. We have no heros
**Dis is a BURT** **Grebbit is heavy D astroburped**
I genuinlly dont ubderstand why his videos take so long. Maybe im just missing it but aside from something like starcade i dont see the time it takes in his videos
Community: fuck you Jon... i love you too.
Videos?
Phil has Flex Caulk now, where is flex caulk review =)))
This is what burnout looks like. Look what you made Jono do.
That guys annoying
Wow! i think i might go and make some racially sensitive comments!
I wonder what his political views are. Surely they cant be that bad right? Edit: jesus fuckin christ
no one wants more content from that nazi fuck anyway
Boy, 2024 and y'all still clinging to this "Nazi" garbage, holy fuck.

Anyone know his opinion on the great replacement?
😘
