Comedy is entertainment designed to make an audience laugh; whilst Matt's videos tend to be on the more serious side, comedy is something he sprinkles in where necessary, usually via Reggie, though not always.

Dark Comedy in TME
Matt is known for making videos which are designed to fall under the "Not For Kids" banner established by the FTC and YouTube in 2019 after reforms made to COPPA. With this in mind, he and those who may be collaborating with him (with the exception of Comic Fan 13) make jokes directed towards a teenage/adult audience.

Examples
Perhaps Knuckles paid them a visit, too. Who knows?
 * Sonic Team, SEGA, Aspect and Sonic himself may have been drug addicts (which explains the lack of focus directed towards several games within the franchise), with Knuckles being their dealer. (Sonic Labyrinth - Matt Reviews, part of The Shit Sonic Extravaganza)
 * Matt and Reggie make allusions to suicide that aren't very subtle (Sonic Labyrinth - Matt Reviews, part of The Shit Sonic Extravaganza)
 * Classic Sonic repeatedly whacks his head off a wall after hearing what his Modern counterpart has been up to. A line cut from the script during editing implied this was a form of self-harm due to the fact that he realises his future is going to be awful. (Green Eyed Monster?)
 * Reggie is immortal, and for this very reason he is suicidal. (Various)
 * In the boardroom meeting running gag segments, the writers are stoned. (Various)
 * Robotnik is revealed to be both unemployed, and a victim of attempted murder. He is also clinically insane, though he hides it very well. (ROBOTNIK DENOUNCES HUMANITY)
 * Robotnik is suffering from depression and resorts to bad acting in order to get over it - quite why we will never know. (Robotnik's Odyssey, Sonic's Gameworld - Matt Reviews)

Juvenile comedy
For much the same reason as the Dark Comedy, an influx of sophomoric humour is also present.

Examples

 * Reggie ponders why Matt doesn't dispose of shit games by flushing them down the drain. (Sonic Labyrinth review)
 * Dr. Pewp's namesake is an obvious case of toilet humour (Dr. Pewp)
 * Reggie demands flushies to end his suffering. (Various)
