"[D]istinctly warped and funny" - The Onion AV Club

"His self-deprecating low-key style of comedy sneaks up on you" - Serial Optimist

"[H]is once awkward self has kind of turned into a very blunt and sometimes dark comedian, which are the best kind, really" - Slug Mag

"[A] boldly honest performer with a unique mind" - The Sprout (UK)

"Chris Thayer was the master of small comedic looks. He could kill the room with one lift of his eyebrow, so when he added words the hilarity just exploded out of him. As Pete Holmes said, he is like a comedic crock pot simmering away until bing the joke is ready." - Spinning Platters
