Edgy dipshit "comedians" that wanted to violently murder Barney in the 90's then shitty dude bro family guy humor in the early aughts.
I remember first seeing Tom Goes To The Mayor on adultswim and it being like a breath of fresh air. It felt like finally someone got how absurd it is to live in small town america.
if the metric is what's commercially popular, comedy has always sucked and will continue to suck until the end of time. there are a ton of people who are nationally/regionally touring who are so fucking good and you'd never know about it because the ceiling for that is basically writing for a late night show while doing sets or something
