Why do the hosts say animation forces comedians to write tighter jokes?

Bert Kreischer 0:00
Hundred percent. І цразі то мі. First of all, how hard animated is because I You know, it's like we are in love with a certain Homer Simpson. Sure. Because and then when you watch the old Homer Simpson, you're like, dude, what the fuck is this? I'm
Nick Kroll 0:22
gonna strangle. And that's it, right? Yeah,
Tom Segura 0:25
he was just really angry at first. Yeah. Yeah. He was like super pissed. He wasn't the the lovable dope.
Nick Kroll 0:30
No. And it takes time and and it takes time. And shows and and it's not even shows, it's just the landscape of it of for attention is such that you can't you don't have that time and there's not that money to like really let something become itself. It has to become itself very quickly and successfully.
Bert Kreischer 0:48
But having done loudmouth and now the new series Are we on? Are we regarding? Yeah, we're on, we're on open season. Not open season. Uh but I love if
Nick Kroll 0:55
We just promote
Bert Kreischer 0:55
both
Nick Kroll 0:55
shows as loudmouth and open season.
Tom Segura 1:00
He always does that.
Nick Kroll 1:01
So guys get a I mean
Bert Kreischer 1:03
Was it mating season? It's it's mating season. It's mating season. And and big mouth. And Oh, it's not loud mouth. Wait, cause wait, so I was in so I watched I watched five episodes uh this morning. And I said, I'm having Nick Kroll on they go, is he promoting Lo Big Mouth? Yeah. And I said, No, he's got a new show called Open Mating Season. And then they said, God, I fucking love Big Mouth. And and my trainer and his girlfriend, who were staying at our house, were like, I love the characters. I love the and then they've married because you're What, how many seasons of Big Mouth? We did eight seasons of Big Mouth. Eight seasons of Big Mouth. You've given an audience time to fall in love with the animated character.
Bert Kreischer 1:42
Yeah. And now they're tethered to the hormone monster or whatever, right? Who isn't? And and then you introduce new characters and that you gotta give them time to fall in love with them. Yeah. Yeah. Well, and I so it's such a it's so much harder than just presenting Nick Kroll, who we know. Does that make sense? Oh of course.
Nick Kroll 2:02
Uh uh but I feel like um one the only other person to call it loudmouth is Andrew Goldberg, who I created the show with. His dad, Michael Goldberg, who is more like any of the characters in real life. His Andrew's dad, it's ri the Richard Kine did the voice, and he's just like the funniest, but He called the show Loudmouth, like his own son. He was like, I'm excited for Loudmouth and he had t-shirts made that said Loudmouth on it. With like a budget version of each of our characters' drawings. Like he got them pirated. Like he hit a and that's the only person who's called it loudmouth. So you're in good company. Bang. Um and I but I do think it's it is the challenge of it. But I think in it specifically animation, the reason we do love like Homer and and all of like the
Nick Kroll 2:45
The whatever the shows that people fall in love with, South Park or Family Guy or any of those shows, is because animation, the process, the other side of it, the process lets you polish and fine-tune and really like think about the stories you're telling or the fucking jokes you're telling, because you have so many steps to hit it and get it right. Like when you guys are doing your shows, like you hope you get on the day and you You hope you can figure it out in the edit, right? Totally. Totally.
Tom Segura 3:13
Yeah.
Nick Kroll 3:13
I it with animation you have like a animatic, like a black and white sort of rough draft of it. So you get to screen it, do r you have a radio play even before that where you listen to the whole thing and be like These jokes are not working. This storyline's not working. A radio play. A radio play. Like a podcast. Like a podcast. It's literally like the scripted podcast. Like only the audio of it. And you can then go in and fucking tighten it up. And then there's the the color screening. At that point, you really get to be like, Okay, what does it look like? And you get to r hopefully get time to rewrite and read.
Tom Segura 3:44
Super dialed in.
Nick Kroll 3:45
So it's dialed in. It's why I think we also love like animated movies that are like the classics that our families, our kids fall in love with because those things take years to make
