Watch Kroll Show

Kroll Show was a sketch comedy series that aired on Comedy Central from 2013 to 2015. The show was created and starred in by comedian Nick Kroll, best known for his roles in The League, Parks and Recreation, and Big Mouth. The show had a satirical approach to pop culture, with Kroll playing a wide range of characters that were parodies of real-life celebrities, reality TV stars, and social media influencers. The sketches were often interconnected and had recurring characters, creating a world of absurdity that was both hilarious and cringe-inducing.

One of the most popular characters was PubLIZity, a reality TV show starring Liz B and Liz G, two publicists who were obsessed with all things glamorous and superficial. They often appeared in sketches alongside other characters, including Fabrice Fabrice, a haughty Frenchman who seemed to look down on everyone, and Dr. Armond, a bizarre plastic surgeon who would do anything to make his clients look perfect.

Another recurring character was Bobby Bottleservice, a sleazy pickup artist who ran a club-promoting business called "Ed Hardy Boyz." Bobby was always trying to impress women, but his misguided attempts usually ended up making him look like an idiot. Other notable characters included "Wheels Ontario," a Degrassi-style teen drama set in a wheelchair-accessible high school, and "Oh Hello," two aging, opinionated New Yorkers who had a tendency to ramble on about their past experiences.

The show featured a mix of live-action sketches and animation, with Kroll voicing many of the animated characters himself. The animation was often used to create fake commercials or parodies of popular TV shows like Breaking Bad or Scandal. One recurring animated segment was "Pawnsylvania," a game show set in a fictional pawn shop, where contestants would try to guess the value of bizarre and obscure items.

Kroll Show received critical acclaim for its sharp writing and hilarious performances, but it also faced some backlash for its portrayal of marginalized groups, such as the disabled community and the transgender community. Kroll has since apologized for any harm caused and has acknowledged the need for greater sensitivity in comedy.

Despite the controversy, Kroll Show remains a cult favorite among fans of sketch comedy. Its unique brand of humor, combined with Kroll's incredible range as a performer, made it a standout show on Comedy Central during its three-year run. Overall, Kroll Show was a hilarious and biting commentary on modern culture, and a showcase for one of the most talented comedians working today.

Kroll Show is a series that ran for 3 seasons (33 episodes) between January 16, 2013 and on Comedy Central
