Ex-‘SNL’ Writer-Comedian Kevin Brennan Mocks Matthew Perry’s Death

Kevin Brennan — a former ‘SNL’ author and comic — is making gentle of Matthew Perry‘s passing in an actual ugly manner … which can converse to why he is not extra profitable in showbiz.

Kevin — who had a 2-year stint writing for famed sketch comedy present manner again when, and who was as soon as a rising comedian in NYC — took to Twitter this weekend after information of Perry’s loss of life broke … and posted an extremely insensitive message mocking the late ‘Pals’ actor.

He wrote, “DROWNED IN A HOT TUB. HAHAHAHA” … this whereas linking again to our story.

The tweet wasn’t seen by very many individuals — KB solely has about 5,900 followers or so anyway — nevertheless it actually left a foul style within the mouths of parents who did see it … with many individuals calling him out within the feedback and bashing him for making a joke out of it.

Whereas Kevin is not almost as related as he was within the ’90s/early 2000s … he nonetheless has a well-known connection to mainstream Hollywood by his youthful brother Neal Brennan — from whom he is estranged. Neal, after all, is the co-creator/author of ‘Chappelle’s Present.’

Neal and Kevin had a falling out years in the past — and the youthful sibling went on to forge a strong path for himself. Neal’s written for tons of exhibits, and even has his personal Netflix comedy particular now … whereas Kevin hosts a reasonably obscure podcast, and does gigs right here and there.

It bears repeating … Neal is NOT near Kevin — and based mostly on interviews NB has carried out of late, the place he was requested about his relationship with Kevin … you may inform it is a delicate matter. Based mostly on this response to Perry alone, you may see their personalities are very totally different.

So, after all, Kevin’s crude remarks listed here are by no means a mirrored image of Neal — who, so far as we will inform, minds his enterprise and focuses on his work … and who would not appear to have talked about Perry or ‘Pals,’ for that matter, very a lot in any respect publicly.

Kevin seems to nonetheless fancy himself standup-adjacent — commonly commenting on mainstream comedians that Neal undoubtedly rubs shoulders with … though, what he pulled right here is way from a laughing matter. Neal would not appear to have reacted to his brother’s publish.
