I like it.

Haven't watched the show in years and years, but I used to think that Tim Meadows was damn funny.

The Ladies Man: "You should never have sex with a phone."
Monica Lewinsky: "But that's not what phone sex is!"
The Ladies Man: "I know, but I just had to try it anyway."

Rob Schneider also had Sensitive Naked Guy, which was pretty funny.

I jumped ship in the era of Jim Brewer, Molly Shannon, Colin Quinn, and Chris Kattan. Molly Shannon made me laugh once: as an extremely nervous amateur comic who told jokes like "I don't have periods. I have exclamation points." Then, she reprised the character a week or two later, killing every last thing that was funny about it to emphasize a stupid catch phrase.

Colin Quinn, Chris Kattan, and Jim Brewer have never made me laugh a single time in anything that they've done.

If I was a teacher, and my class was the special class full of retarded children, I would use that video as a reward at the end of each day to show to them if they've been good or not gone apeshit.
That's the only group of people I can imagine enjoying that video to any great degree.

I'm going to have to go with Jimmy Fallon as the unfunniest SNL cast member of all time. That whole cracking-up-during-a-horrible-skit thing just made me hate him more. Horatio Sans did that all the time too, but at least he was an ugly fat guy that nobody really thought was funny or good at anything, so he pretty much lived up to your expectations. Otherwise, I'd go with Horatio Sans.

Jimmy Fallon, though, I think he basically skated by on his TV guy good looks and tried to make a cute face in lieu of getting actual laughs. He proceeded to rip off Adam Sandler at a time when everyone had been really fucking sick of Adam Sandler for a few years. I think I heard he was discovered as an audience member on Oprah. All of these things (including the Oprah thing) make me hate him.

Did you hear that he's taking over Conan O'Brien's show when Conan takes over for Jay Leno? Finally, I will no longer have any reason to be sad that I usually fall asleep before 11:35 during the week.

Oh and Tim Meadows could be pretty hilarious sometimes. He had great timing. I enjoyed a lot of the ladies man sketches, plus, remember the OJ trial parody? "I'M AC, DAMMIT!" I remember cracking up at that.

Meh, I've seen that sketch before. It was so-so, chuckle-inducing at best. There's so much more they could have done with it. Even so, it positively devastates any of the crap from the current version of SNL. I swear, that show is unwatchable these days.

I like the damned sktch dammit. To hell with you all!

Anyone catch the Bon Jovi episode where he was interviewed by the faux-Italina dude? The one with the robot horse? That was recent and was pretty solid.

I'm usually boozing it up on Saturday nights anyway.

Here ya go, man. If you liked that one here's another you may enjoy.

God, I can't settle on one:

Chevy Chase, Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler, Molly Shannon, Rachel Dratch, Jim Breuer, Rob Schneider, Jimmy Fallon, and Chris Kattan are all particularly grating. I don't think John Belushi was too funny either.

"Sprockets" is probably my favorite recurring sketch.

I never gave it much thought, but this show is CRAP overall. I haven't paid attention to it in some time.
