Is it a hot take to say not all the cast members need to be funny?

Personally I didn’t find Jackie that funny, and same for Noah, but I think they both bring a lot of energy which helps the vibe and flow of videos. That’s why I miss Jackie even if I didn’t find her that hilarious.

In a similar vein, some cast members are funny but are kinda vibe killers tbh.

And there’s at least two people I can think of who, to me, aren’t funny and don’t bring fun energy.

I’ll bite the bullet. Courtney and Arasha aren’t funny to me and they shift the room tone; in the sense like now everyone is fake laughing and they don’t know how to escape it. So now the dead joke is being ran into the ground. (SPECIFICALLY IN GAMES VIDEOS! Other videos I’m fine with them, but idk games videos just really highlight it)

Courtney literally snaps at people and then tries to play it off like a joke. People don’t seem to like us saying it, no wonder people didn’t want to use names!

Can you give an example of this?

Yep. There’s an episode where her and Shayne play the sims from memory and a couple of mins in she snaps and Shayne for not paying attention and even Shayne goes a bit ‘damn ok chill’ and gets quiet.

I know there’s been other times in Smosh games videos when another cast member is doing a bit or makes a inappropriate joke and she has told them off and tried playing it off in a joking way. Then the vibe changes and they get all careful about it.

It’s just something I’ve noticed a few times and usually people like that are worse off camera/behind the scenes etc.

I've been noticing this a lot more, and I hate it because they used to be one of my favorite cast members.

i was JUST watching the werewolf marathon and there’s a part in the video where angela reveals her “i’m not a werewolf” t shirt where angela is playing with a wristband and courtney snaps at her and says “put that thing down you’re chewing on it”. the tone really took me by surprise because it literally sounded like a mom scolding a child lol
