Bill Burr Reaction Videos: When did this become a thing?

Hundreds of videos of people watching Bill Burr who for the record I think is as funny as any comic working today however, I had no idea that people react to watching his stand up. As far as I can tell this seems like a relatively new thing (the reactions not him). Do people react to every comic now or is this exclusive to the top of the class? Is "reaction" even the right word?

They (Youtubers) are doing this for quite some time already. Years actually. Most of them are terrible. Some are good. So yeah....

I'm a really big fan of Frankenstein's Lab. They react to a ton of stuff but they're a pretty big fan of Bill Burr.

Ol Billy Bumblebutt and Norm McDonald are two of the greatest working comedians living today IMO

I like his work. Shame that this uptake has to do with popularity among alt-right, joe rogan fans and the usual right wing morons.

Which is also a little bit why I like him: he is liberal on social issues but always willing to call out dumb shit no matter where it comes from.

I's not just Burr, I see reactions to all the major ones pass by my recommended daily. And ofc There are reactiosn from about any person reaction to anything you can imagine, from music, comedy/standup, ppl trying foreign food or reacting to obscure foreign tv shows and music etc. 99% are utter trash, but there are a handfull that can be enjoyable to watch.

Frankenstein's Lab, as is mentioned a few times here alread are great comedy reactign wise. Lost in Vegas for music reactions.

There are a ton of reactors. They cover not just super famous acts, but less well known American and British acts, too. Usually just a dude or a dude and his girlfriend watching a youtube video. I saw one reacting to Gogglebox, and realized I was watching someone watch someone watch someone.

What? Why? And in what way? to be offended or to laugh?

They all seem to laugh and they all seem to be of a variety of backgrounds. Bill Burr's anger transcends.

That Philadelphia rant really intrigued me so I looked around, and I just found a video of Bill Burr's own explanation of what happened.




This is so awesome!

This is what made me a Bill Burr fan right here.

The shit about the Rocky statue was on point. Absolutely ridiculous.
