Tran Thanh and Truong Giang criticized for talking too much on the 'hot' seat

The two actors received backlash from their colleagues and audiences for commenting on contestants and teasing their co-stars more than necessary.

Episode 8 of the show Comedy Arena aired on the evening of May 31 with the participation of 5 pairs of contestants.On the show's own page, many viewers complained about theTran Thanhtalking too much in the "hot" seat. Most viewers think that if Duc Thinh is calm and speaks "correctly and to the point", Tran Thanh talks a lot but does not get to the heart of the matter.

In this episode, the actor was commented by the audience as a "commentator" because he was always the first to judge the contestants. In addition to speaking, Tran Thanh also demonstrated acting for the players, so his speech took up more time than the other coaches.

Tran Thanh shows that he is a cheerleading coach when he is constantly restless in the "hot" seat.

"Tran Thanh, please speak less. We want to hear other judges' comments," a female viewer expressed her anger.

"Tran Thanh always gives his opinion in every performance, but when it comes to his own contestant, he stays quiet. Maybe because the performance was so bad," said an audience member named Nhu Nguyen.

Truong Giang was also accused of talking too much when he deliberately teased his colleagues. In the comment section of Thanh Son - Phuong Lan's performance, after being teased that "Too little hair is not good", Tien Luat responded to Truong Giang: "Talking too much is not good either". Surprised by the reaction, the actor laughed happily. MC "Oc" Thanh Van quickly resolved the situation by asking Thu Trang - Tien Luat to make a decision with the contestants.

Aside from the juggling acts of the coaches and MCs, episode 8 of the Duel round was quite boring because the skits had bland, sometimes confusing scripts.

Coach Tran Thanh complained to the contestants about creating a script without considering whether the audience would understand the content or not. "You borrowed the movie 'The Mermaid' to create the script, but if you do it this way, will those who have never seen the movie understand what you are saying?", Tran Thanh commented on the performance of Hong Phuc - Hoai Long.

Audience member Do Quyen also commented, "The script for 'The Mermaid' by Hong Phuc - Hoai Long is incomprehensible. The other scripts are all nonsense."

The pair of contestants that made Thu Trang angry were eliminated from the competition.

Besides the bad script, many contestants forgot their lines and were confused when juggling with their co-stars. Coach Thu Trang used the words "angry" and "disappointed" to comment on two pairs of contestants on her team. This mentality made her immediately eliminate Thanh Son - Phuong Lan instead of choosing one of the two as usual.

"Except for the Huynh Quy - Le Trang couple, this is the worst comedy episode of the show so far. All skits with cheap comedy pieces", audience member Minh Ly commented after the show ended.

Comedy Arena is a game show that simulates the format of The Voice. However, instead of showing off their singing talent, the contestants have to show off their comedy skills in front of five coaches.
