When did Desus and Mero stop being funny to you

[Unknown Poster]

When they moved from Vice to Showtime
Seems like the writing team was trying to market it to white surbanites in flover states who simply don't understand NYC culture or how it REALLY is.
Not to mention, they had more energy on the daily show and were hitting the comedic levels high with the guests.

They just aren't for that crowd. And never were.
Which is funny to hear people say that's who their audience was, cause I don't get it.

But after a while, they got stale.

The question is “when did they start being funny to you?” because they never have been to me. It’s the kind of “nikka” humor marketed to sheltered CACs.

I had to quit the show when they said they were making efforts to stop using "problematic language" but didn't stop saying nikka

Never understood the hype. They’re suppose to be like “safe hood / hipsters” for mainstream white audience right?

So it was their manager Victor Lopez that caused the split between the two:



And here I was thinking it was Anna Kendrick all along.

It's not like they had to dump the manager, he just couldn't come to the tapings.


Dumb move by Mero. It's immature
