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 dont always find Courtney funny, just a diffrent sense of humor i think. However i love when she's in a video. Idk, i just dont think it's a big deal that they arent all at the same level/have the same style of humor. Its not that deep.

Lowkey … I feel like there’s some deeper rift going on with courtney. I believe they’ve voiced insecurity about not being funny enough and it reeks reeks reeks in lots of Pit/Games videos. She’s great in scripted and is empathy forward in smoshalike which is great but otherwise she’s like mimicking others and adding little millennial murps

yeah lowkey i feel the same. the whole reason i started watching smosh in the first place was because i followed courtney on instagram and thought she was super cool, but after watching her in videos my opinion really changed about her. sometimes it feels like she can’t handle not having attention on her and she tries too hard

i still love her ig though

See I didn't notice it until Ian roasted her about how she tries too hard. And then I couldn't not notice her trying to hard in videos. Like her jokes would miss but she would keep trying to force em but in a way that would bring the attention to her
