Love Max greenfield but the roasting in the title is hilarious

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

I've never heard of him, so is he actually a comedian, too?

[@abbycross90210]

Well, he can't do comedy on the fly, so the title seems accurate.

[@sevendegrees]

@@MatthewTheWandererhe’s an actor - New Girl and Neiborhood

[@Flovodhr]

You say roasting, I say discoverability (he's the most famous by far of the "comedians")

[@Turtlpwr]

Comedians and this friggin guy over here

[@srsgoblin]

"Kill the vibes." Max: "No I don't think I will."

[@Julie1019]

You legitimately made me LOL at this, thank you so much.

[@richardsimon4135]

Max wins killing the vibes

[@mordicaiknode]

"Mazel!"

[@TheRealEricE]

Severely disappointed that no one said "Theatre nerd" for Abe Lincoln

[@peterlucier1813]

Gotta comment to boost this one up. Should be top comment

[@sparkythancztwise]

yeah, and as for the ipad slide: 1. someone should have mimicked a person soapboxing about salmonella risk with turtles (who cares if it's a tortoise) *and* / *or* 2. someone could have parodied a person going off the rails about keeping animals as pets that are "better off in the wild than kept hostage to entertain yourself"

[@sparkythancztwise]

p.s. I could see Robby doing your joke, for sure! You get her 500 pts.

[@kyriaemegawatt8397]

hA HA HA . you win

[@ItsTheTeddyBear]

Theatre diehard, no cap.

[@shayelea]

Okay but that turtle WAS really cute, I can’t blame Max for not having anything negative to say about it 😂

[@julianpena411]

"No points for that cause you're undermining me" 😂

[@willard39]

Max won that whole thing by bringing down the vibe of the entire show.

[@ROLtheWolf]

It was so meta!

[@BlahVideosBlahBlah]

Max understood the assignment. He just went BIG.

[@reds0l0cup50]

James IMMEDIATELY getting what Max was doing and waiting for his chance to help the bit was a whole other level

[@olexvndrv]

wait whaaat, when?! omg, please, give me a time stamp because I feel like I did not catch something lmao 🥲

[@susannaviles]

Max should be in every episode. He made it so dysfunctional, which just made it better.

[@L_M_V]

How did they make a trailer where he’s barely in for The Neighbourhood?

[@MyBiPolarBearMax]

I laughed so much lmao

[@Woodshadow]

I love him but he is not good for the game. you gotta play along otherwise it doesnt work for the average viewer

[@Screwball.78]

Please make it a recurring bit where the Kill the Vibe game is about hilariously killing the vibe in the studio. Intentionally breaking the format is gold.

[@Bored0720]

"Mazel." I love you Max 🤣

[@joelbedulla4]

That was such a Schmidt thing to say 😂

[@johnleake5657]

Ah, now I get it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHOqeKehhc6Cnsksi=KliAQUx79A4wpKGB

[@drummertp12]

Max brought this to a whole new level of funny. Do more dysfunctional guests pls!

[@CaptHayfever]

The man who played legendary vibe-ruiner Schmidt? He knew *exactly* what he was doing here.

[@gzoek]

Putting Max and Robby in the same lineup was an insane decision but fortunately Taylor thrives in chaos. That was unexpectedly hilarious.

[@EricBridges]

I'm so glad it only took three episodes for this show to become completely unhinged.

[@olexvndrv]

THIS, IM SO HAPPY IT WENT INTO THIS DIRECTION OMG :D

[@Jen_Wick]

Well done, Taylor - giving it to Robby so they can't cut it!

[@archangel1of7]

I know he was supposed to ruin the vibe but Max's replies made me laugh way harder lol

[@QueenKunta]

Same! My first hearty laugh was “it’s a beautiful day on the docks!” Something about blissfully misunderstanding the rules is so funny to me.

[@victoriavvc]

Schmidt loving a turtle sliding down an iPad is everything 😂

[@CM-pf1xc]

Love the fact that THIS is max greenfields iconic comedy-just creating chaos! Sooo good 😂😂😂😂

[@steveesparra6944]

"Mazel" is objectively hilarious

[@Evelyn82C]

Max Greenfield refusing to kill the party vibe is very wholesome

[@harshhh.notadoctor]

no max is so cute 'it was pretty cute when it slid down the ipad' 😭

[@benchiaase]

Max took the game literally

[@turtlemayhem39]

He understood the assignment

[@Julie1019]

Right?! It is so meta I feel like he should have won.

[@email04joey]

I love this. I normally have an interior monolog laugh for TV, but I've laughed out loud 3 days in a row to this show. Excellent work

[@now4itfriends]

Same!!!

[@56nickrich]

No complaints. The ship has left the dock and is sailing into new adventures. Having Taylor Tomlinson at the helm is the best thing you could have @m 💥👍🏻

[@kazza6078]

Bring James back for sure, I laughed hard every single time

[@LateBloomerMedia]

No shade, but James did it way better 😂

[@legitiotjake]

Would love if Max got to come back a couple times a year. It seems like the edibles kicked in on this one, but I still love the guy

[@jrojala]

I felt like he was on shrooms or something- he was in another dimension, haha

[@vjmcdonn]

Oh my gosh😂🤣😂🤣 max made this freaken hilarious!! I love this concept!! Taylor with 3 funny guests just vining off each other 😂🤣😂 this had me rolling

[@DevonMeunier]

It's really cool seeing network TV try to replicate Game Changer. It shows how much Dropout punches above their weight.

[@yourmomisvaxxed5570]

I hadn’t even heard of The Neighborhood, but am watching now. Very happy to see Max Greenfield getting more well-deserved screen time.

[@davidellis251]

Party vibes is a subtle and on point joke

[@marcelo.bassalo]

Max is so good he killed the entire vibe in that studio and he's not even a comedian? That's impressive!

[@rayeschiller]

that wholesome "mazal" killed me

[@DavidJohnson83]

Lmfao, when Max killed the vibe of the game, that broke me 🤣

[@Cloudislandbaby]

Taylor is so impressive!!!! It’s day 3 and she’s already such an amazing host , so funny, and omg her PATIENCE when it was off the rails? 🤣😭 max was amazing here LMAOOO so sweet yet so lost ❤ and James is hilarious he had me laughing

[@cartwheelkids]

James is so funny! I wish he'd been paired with comedians who could match his energy. The other two were very dry/deadpan, which is fine, but it felt jarring jumping between their answers and James's. You could tell it affected Taylor too. The show feels less jarring when the contestants have similar comedic styles and can build on each other's humor and energy.

[@CM-pf1xc]

Yeah James was hilarious, very clever.

[@kristopherschermerhorn998]

I thought Robby and Max we’re absolutely hysterical bouncing off Taylor. James had a few funny responses, one being his Jesus response to walking on water here, but overall his responses felt very “safe” in comparison to Robby and Max who kept pushing boundaries in all the right ways.

[@asliyase]

I agree. Both styles are great but maybe not together. Then again, the dysfunctionality kinda works too.

[@sparkythancztwise]

you nailed the *kill the vibe* concept and brought it *on* like you *meant* it mazel!

[@TempleGuitars]

Max's relentless optimism is such a vibe.

[@kate.b97]

Taylor is KILLING it in the RED!! Love this show!

[@spinozatheobvious626]

The main difference between this and a UK panel show is that there's 100 times as many points to be made. Somehow that seems appropriate.

[@Heybabetv]

Max is this generation’s Chandler Bing

[@katied.8839]

Solid game concepts, introductions, and banter. So proud of how well Taylor is doing!!

[@kitoushi66]

"No shade but..." love James.

[@jaym5602]

Max was the best he was killing the vibe of the skit.

[@Donnerjkks]

The title roast is my favorite, with the thumbnail too 😂

[@prostoantonsytnik]

Max is cool. He isn't trying to roast anyone. He's just a wholesome guy himself.

[@aramanon]

I had a great laugh watching a very charming TV actor just having a great time hiding amongst roast comics and a host with anxiety and no control over the situation.

[@romxxii]

James and Robby are just vicious! I want more of them, please.

[@gavin4513]

Loving this.

[@birding_sarah]

This was an great segment. :) Had to re watch it a few times.

[@Raddiebaddie]

“I’ll kill the vibe in here” 😂

[@LycanLink]

Robby was likely doing a vibe-killing bit for the sake of the segment, including when she chimed in during Max's response. 😅

[@fakename1656]

I finally found the best description of my personality. Killin' the vibe 😂😂

[@annakaricole9368]

It's soooo much funnier when they give Taylor a hard time ROFL

[@erinwatts5285]

Loving this show!

[@zoidbergnoise]

Robby so they don't cut it is priceless.

[@bangnee]

This is so ridiculous, I love it!

[@nternetrat]

all i can say is, i'm about to go on a cruise in a few days, and all i can think about is how i'm SO going to as many comedy shows AS I CAN. pour one out for comedy cruise days taylor.

[@robsrxx]

Robbie is a wildcard😂

[@vidaudink3044]

Ha!! Love it!

[@alilovesyou]

James is hilarious

[@pleasemyplants3447]

Max: Party Vibes

[@LycanLink]

I appreciate the effort, but somebody tell Robby that shock value doesn't equal comedy. 😅

[@reinbronsgeest3777]

For Cleopatra, it should have been “Ankh in the trunk!”😂

[@IAmAnnaish]

Taylor did great here 😂

[@jordandurfee6228]

JAMES AND I HAD THE SAME THOUGHT FOR THE LAST VIDE0 😂😂😂😂😂 legit as it was playing I went "Jesus did it better" out loud 😂

[@frederickheard2022]

Loved how “kill the vibe” turned into Festivus immediately

[@stephenpetersen354]

Max just being a wrench in there was great. 😂

[@faithevers6899]

the title is so shady omg ahahahaha

[@chrisbyerly]

God these segments are so genius. Not the greatest responses from the contestants this time but the concepts are solid.

[@capeCodTrees]

This is consistently creating some of the best jokes on television

[@MothGirl007]

No.

[@capeCodTrees]

@@MothGirl007 well I think so. And I also think you're great. So good luck telling me I have the wrong opinion 😏

[@OH_MY_DOGGG]

​@@capeCodTrees The other day I had a discussion with someone who had decided they liked a TV show without even watching it. I wish I had an elephants memory so I could make sure to just tune this person out forever. Too many opinions not enough credence.

[@frakkedinmi1205]

Max killing the vibe of the killing the vibe game 💀💀💀 TV magic

[@superman60201]

Yes points!

[@Romina07]

Love max 😂😂😂

[@allye9865]

Omg Max😂

[@jrojala]

Robby is fucking amazing, she reminds me of my childhood friend Bertie; they have the same clever, chill vibe.

[@vincewest9023]

the 2 I saw have been great very funny

[@Robinripley]

I like how max was like, this show is stupid im going have my own fun.

[@shalmali-379]

Where can i get more od this james guy he funny as hell

[@thomasrosebrough9062]

Lmao poor max. These gameshows prove time and time again that comedy improv is a *very* different skillset from comedy acting.

[@andrewwhite1305]

I really like this show, it's still a bit raw, but it'll polish up very well.

[@Sairin13]

This reminds me strongly of British game shows but the contestants would be allowed to sit down. C'mon people let's get these guys some bar stools or something. Taylor's doing really well too, let's give her stool a cushion.

[@juijev192]

Itd be so nice if youd upload full eps

[@TheUberjammer]

This video is like Seth Meyers' 'Corrections' videos had a baby, and Taylor Tomlinson did a panel show where comedians were supposed to ruin the vibe of the video, and they just ruined the vibe of the show instead.

[@dvers1604]

I love the premise of this game i hope other guests play along

[@quiquiqui]

Comedians and Max Greenfield in the title is a shade 😂

[@rljensen3]

I watched the show last night. It seemed like Max didn't realize what show he was on. 10min he clearly wasn't happy. Threw off the whole vibe. Taylor's doing great though. Still digging the show.

[@TinKnight]

Yeah, everyone's talking about how he made the show better by breaking the format, but it really legitimately seemed through the entire episode like he didn't quite get it, and it was impeding the other guests from getting into a rhythm. Stand-up comics & those actors with improv chops are really the only way to go with this type of show.

[@rljensen3]

@@TinKnight I agree

[@peter65zzfdfh]

The great thing about this being split up into individual clips on KZbin is that not only are the useless scores an obstruction to the comedy but it’s nearly impossible to deliberately watch them in order so the scores have any sensible reason to exist at all.

[@Tokkemon]

the show where everything's made up and the points don't matter.

[@chaznightlord8664]

The show sucks. What a bad decision to design a show for a standup comedian this way

[@alilovesyou]

Do they cut some scenes out? Sometimes it seems like they move onto the next segment without giving some of the contestants a chance to respond

[@LateBloomerMedia]

6:42 James: you're supposed to KILL THE VIBE, Max. Max: how do you kill THAT vibe?? Robby: IT KILLED ITS OWN VIBE!! Taylor: you guys have killed the WHOLE VIBE of the ENTIRE GAME 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jameshansel2755]

Max did not know what he was doing

[@exoterric]

Even the cringe moments are fun to watch. I appreciate everyone's effort; it will take time for flow to emerge. Love you all, but Taylor you're still the funniest one in the room.

[@captainm8889]

Comedians AND Max Greenfield lol

[@erinrodgersStoryCoach]

Is the response to the cute animal video from a brand account? That is hilarious

[@ginettealvarez4926]

Cleopatra Bio: I am Roman’s empire, Roman Empire!😅

[@ndee1472]

Max high on shrooms or what?! 😂

[@lars7282]

James easily crushing the other two by miles 😅

[@marietailor3100]

Max: “Today, I woke up and chose peace.” Everyone else: “But dude - we’re in the middle of a fucking war!”

[@SwampGator]

Ditch the writers and improv the whole show.

[@laurazepam8382]

Max is the only one who had me actually laughing out loud.
