Kevin Brennan — a former ‘SNL’ writer and comedian — is making light of Matthew Perry‘s passing in a real ugly way … which may speak to why he isn’t more successful in showbiz.
Kevin — who had a 2-year stint writing for the famed sketch comedy show way back when, and who was once a rising comic — took to Twitter this weekend after news of Perry’s death broke … and posted an incredibly insensitive message mocking the late ‘Friends’ actor.
DROWNED IN A HOT TUB. HAHAHAHA

He wrote, “DROWNED IN A HOT TUB. HAHAHAHA” … this while linking back to our story.
The tweet wasn’t viewed by very many people — KB only has about 5,900 followers or so anyway — but it certainly left a bad taste in the mouths of folks who did see it … with many people calling him out in the comments and bashing him for making a joke out of it.
While Kevin isn’t nearly as relevant as he was in the ’90s/early 2000s … he still has a famous connection to mainstream Hollywood through his younger brother Neal Brennan — from whom he’s estranged. Neal, of course, is the co-creator/writer of ‘Chappelle’s Show.’
Neal and Kevin had a falling out years ago — and the younger sibling went on to forge a solid path for himself. Neal’s written for tons of shows, and even has his own Netflix comedy special now … whereas Kevin hosts a pretty obscure podcast, and does gigs here and there.
