I can confirm personally that Victoria Jackson is one of the nicest and kindest people you will ever encounter. Victoria is at the top of my list as favorite SNL cast members.
Honestly I have been watching since I was a wee boy in the late 70s some of my memories are Fuzzy but the early cast had individuals but some of the skits were.. experimental but My fondest memories are Eddie Murphy, Fred Armisen and Bill Hader who all consistently did stuff that I liked and didnt annoy me many cast members annoyed me, some of them were very talened on their own or were more like song and dance performers but had inconsistent sketch material. Absolutely cant stand Katan or Shannon they are more annoying than Franken.
@@ajivins1 oh yes, one of my favorite sketches was the Robert Downey show (S22E6) where they did a parody of West Side Story - the whole episode was hilarious (and you can still see it here on YT)
I was a bartender in LA for many years. Cheri Oteri stepped up to the bar and ordered a drink. I carded her not because I didn't recognize her but because she looked 18 yrs old. She did! I was shocked when I looked at the name on the I.D. and then at her. I told her how young she looked. She seemed nice.
I met Molly Shannon in New York when I was 8. She gave my dad directions, then I asked her if she was the lady from Superstar. She blushed and said yes. I never forgot it because of how humbly she handled being recognized.
@@kingtrance307great at what? Being a soulless mouthpiece for a corrupt government. Because that’s what Seth and Kimmel and Colbert are. It’s pathetic.
I haven’t heard anything about him being prickly. I heard that he definitely enjoys doing whatever he thinks sounds fun after work, like flying to Indiana for a Notre Dame game before the playoffs. Then a week later flying to Barcelona for a dinner reservation with some friends. And when they were filming St Vincent Bill had finished his last scene for the week and he left to fly to some fancy golf course. He invited Melissa McCarthy to come join him since she mentioned she liked golf. She turned him down because her husband was bringing her kids for a visit. He never invited her again. But he is always a professional when he’s working. And I’ve heard about all the tabs he’s paid for people in restaurants. Like a Dad and his little boy. They were sitting a few tables away and the Dad got with the kid to take them to the bathroom. And as they walked past Bill the boy said he’s a ghost buster. And after they were on their way back to their table Bill made small talk and of course made the kid free special. As Bill was leaving and the Dad and kid were finishing their meal. The waitress came out with a HUGE vanilla sundae and a tray of a few different sauces and a bunch of different toppings. And said I have to go would you fellas mind eating this for me. They accept it and before he left he paid their tab. Or the couple who had just gotten married. The Bill was in the area and he photo bombed them. They invited him to join them and he did. He danced with the bride and did shots with the groom. Then he scribbled a note as he was sneaking off and he wrote them a personalized note thank you note and gave them a grand. None of that sounds prickly to me.
I understand he's had certain problems that are really no secret, like the old glug-glug i.e. booze, and that will sure as hell make a man moody...also he's pushing 80 or something now. I'd hope to see Bill Murray in at least one more great movie or at the very least, several more guest host spots on SNL, he's a great comedy talent one of the best ever -
Me too. For many years back he had a reputation about being an asshole basically. After a while of hearing the same type of stories over and over again, you have to believe they are true.
@@foto21 Chase tried a little too hard to be like Leslie Neilson, but while breaking the 4th wall by being immature enough to be acting like you all know he's just trying to be like him. He never felt authentic in any of his scenes / movies. Sure, he could be funny, but that was 95% the writing, and 5% chase just being deadpan stupid. I have the same impression of Bill Murry; same cringe seriousness while trying to be comedic that just comes off as snobby and immature.
I mean, it was clearly a idiotic stereotype .. but I'm sure he genuinely believed it being around a ton of unfunny women. You just don't see women stand up, and they're generally side characters in any production. Considering just the women mentioned in this video .. he wasn't precisely wrong if that's what he was going by. I can think of very few "celebrity" .. as Tracy would put it... women that I've ever found funny. They can certainly deliver some funny jokes .. but that's the writers pulling their weight. I've never thought " OH! It's _____ ! I need to see what they're doing!" Roseanne Barr is probably the only one I've ever come close to that. She's genuinely witty. even if her brain rotted with age and she went nazi.
Because he was a misogynistic asshole, and if he diminished and dengrated the females, he obviously had a shot at more screen time for himself and anything he wrote.
I’ve known many witty funny women in real life, but for whatever reason they don’t seem to raise to the level of hilarity as men as often especially in standup (many women are good comedic actors). At the end of the day, I do think the super rare top level of comedic genius seems lacking in women for some reason, and I’m not exactly sure why but probably some confluence of factors, and I wouldn’t say it’s thus necessarily impossible for women to reach that uber elite level.
Rest In Peace, Charles Rocket. He was incredibly funny when he guest-starred on a "Moonlighting" episode, portraying Bruce Willis' character's brother, "Richard Addison." Best Episode: "Brother, Can You Spare A Blonde."
My favorite cast members are the entire original cast with Akyroyd, Belushi, Chase, Murray, Morris, Curtain, Radner and Newman. They used to have small skits that were spoofs of commercials. Very funny. One in particular I remember is from season 2, I think. It's a parody of the old "Perrier" bottled water commercial. The product was called "Swill" and it's bottled straight from the east river in NYC. Great stuff.
I used to filter my dates based on whether they found Sandler hilarious. It was OK if they didn't like him or thought he was childishly funny, but a lot of women back then though he was comedy gold: I knew they were too dumb to take seriously
To be honest, I don't care about their politics or stuff like that, the one person who I feel I would not want to end up hanging around the most: Chevy Chase. I even ran into Dan Akroyd at a HOB function I was co-producing and someone asked him about working with Chevy and his response was a masterful deflection that is summed up best as a very polite "I don't speak about that". And Dan is super nice and easygoing.
@@aussiejubes I totally get it. I like her, but at times she is a bit too much of a ham and often injects the wrong vibe into a character somehow, if that makes sense?
Because if a person has “an insane rockin bod” you gotta flaunt it while you can. When I was a young woman, guys would step right in front of me to ask me my name, or for my phone number (pre-internet days, so no email), or give me _their_ number, etc. I may have been flaunting my “insane rockin bod,” (and it was-plus my grandmother’s Swedish heritage gave me insanely beautiful golden blonde hair) but mostly it was a reflection of the era: mini-skirts, hot-pants, and other minimalist clothing. And it made me insane! I took to saying “Leave me alone-I need to be at my desk in five minutes” even if I had a leisurely 15 minutes. When hems came down, I was relieved…but even then, it didn’t stop until I was finally middle-aged and my hair turned into a dowdy light brown and my face had finally accrued some creases. Now that I’m approaching 70, I’m so glad that I’m basically invisible!
Wow yes, she had a stunning sexy figure. She had that character that would come on to men, a 'floozy' who's sexual advances, gyrations were so obscene and silly it turned the men right off. The problem is... she actually did have a smoking hot sexy body making the whole skit unbelievable.
Cheri Oteri, along with Ratchel Dratch, were both extremely talented sketch players, and absolutely killed every role on SNL. But unfortunately post-SNL neither seemed to have gotten a role that would show off their abilities afterwards. I still recall Rachel appearing in the S7E5 episode of "Portlandia" (as an old foreign woman Fred Armisen gets an arranged marriage with) and in a few minutes of her appearance, Dratch made the episode absolutely hilarious.
@@maryrosekent8223 Magnificent. You make social media worthwhile for insights like this. Pre-internet we males wandered around blind about what women were like.
There was an incident in the hall at SNL w/Murray and Chase and poor Harold Ramis had to come to a solution on the set of Caddyshack when the $$ investors demanded a scene with the 2 big stars. Thankfully Harold and Bill and Chevy got it together for that 1 scene with Chevy and the demented greenskeeper Bill. Or it just wouldn't be the same.
She was pretty good in The Truth About Cats & Dogs, but it was really more of a humorous role with some drama mixed in. That's about the only time I liked her.
I'm not a fan of Garofolo but she's 100% correct in stating that Sandlers comedy is childish. He's worthless without a guitar or his constant screaming.
Which has had more success and a larger fan base and more longevity in the business? There ya go. Sandler knows who he is and he knows his lane. He found a niche style and audience and its proven to be very successful for him... whether you like his movies or not. And having worked on one of his movies, the guy is as nice they come and to everyone and goes out of his way to make sure he says hello or acknowledges you no matter who they are. Hes down to earth and just a good guy. You would be hard pressed to find anyone who has anything bad to say about him. And what about Garofolo? Whats she doing right now? Who even remembers her? Thats what I thought.
I remember the Saturday Night Live book said cast members at the time would say that Eddie Murphy's success went to Joe Piscopo's head. I never thought Piscopo was funny, but Eddie is hilarious. He carried that show when he was on.
Yeah. But listening to them talk about it, can understand the thinking. Carrey was Robin Williams level of individual genius and anarchic. In Living Colour suited him much better in allowing him a lot of single focus skits. He would have absolutely eaten everyone else alive on SNL.
My favourites over the years are Chris Farley, Al Franken, Vanessa Bayer, Norm McDonald, Tim Meadows, Kevin Nealon, Cheri Oteri, Rob Schneider, Molly Shannon, Kristen Wiig, but for me, the greatest was Phil Hartman. Always Phil Hartman. Genius.
She was never really that funny she was just sort of a 90s Feminist comedian who got pushed because she had a routine calling out sexism on Beverly Hills 90210.
She was a prominent SNL player and that was during a 90s golden era SNL. Maybe you don't remember her because she was among a very memorable cast and usually played 'secondary' roles and I don't know that she was there fore more than 1 or 2 seasons. Do you remember anyone else from those seasons?
@@batsnackattack Prominent ? She didnt make it an entire year and was never really lead writer on any major bits. Most of her contributions to 90s pop culture were romantic/comedy films, which admittedly were very good. Not really a knock Gottfried is one of my favorite stand ups and his tenure on SNL was ... well he didnt play well with that particular crew.
There is a pattern here. Famous people tend to be petty, selfish, envious and vindictive. They manipulate, lie and scheme against each other. Success can only be reached by those who can outlast all of the mistreatment by fellow celebs long enough to score a bigger role somewhere else. What a pathetic existence. Fame is stupid.
No and all of that is just the most silly thing someone outside that world might believe. You'd find, in their circles, no more and no less than at your secretary job, your muffler repair shop, your factory and any other field in the world. As a broad rule, nearly the opposite of what you've descrbed makes or breaks success: people who are pricks, who throw others under the bus, who cheat, these people will lose out. Those who stay gracious and humble will win more success. Of course the ultimate success tests remains selling tickets. Something else you'd probably believe is they are all shallow people who need 'attention' to feel good. Those people exist (like among your fellow secretaries or gas and oil workers or staff anywhere) but find me a celebrity who's done well enough to become famous and almost without exception they have very little interest in the 'famous' part of things. It's nearly necessary to get and stay 'famous' to be a type who does not have much interest in that kind of attention and handles it as a professional and friendly part of their job even if they themselves would rather not be famous outside the career opportunities it comes with.
Morgan just comes off as oddly professional considering his image. He's right about the Fallon stuff, and he was called a hard worker by castmates on both shows. I hate that kattan and oteri ended up being the way they were, I really loved those 2. Especially with Will Ferrel
Comedy is like music; it is very individual. Some people love a certain comedian, others dislike them. You're going to have ALL of us watching. Some who made it big I loved, or didn't like at all. I can imagine that's a pretty fierce battleground at times. I ish comedians could work on doing things TOGETHER more than they work on competition. I love shows that require all of them to act off the others. It brings out the best in all of them.
Tracey Morgan is an insult to comedy. I genuinely don't know why he is as successful as he is, he must have been one of those who took the deal Katt Williams didn't because there's no way he deserves to be where he is.
To those people calling SNL male stars jerks, they were all pimps, the kings of television when it meant something. I don't begrudge them anything. They made me, as a kid, feel part of something cool when I couldn't be cool to save my life, entertained me and opened my mind, and gave me the incentive to be something other than a bootlicking company man. I thank them for what they did.
I had no idea just how many actors came and went on that show. I watched it when it began, even though I was a kid, all the other kids talked about was SNL (we called it by its full name) and Rosanne Rosannadanna. We had to watch it just for her. So I would try to stay up to watch it. But then that was it. Occasionally I would stop by and watch Eddie Murphy do his Mr. Rogers neighborhood and Little Richard Simmons but that was pretty much it. I had no idea Jeannine Garafalo was ever on that show, she doesn't seem funny at all to me, but, whatever. Interesting. Oh, and I always heard bad things about Chevy Chase.
Fallon’s lack of control during a sketch continued with his talk show. He’s so talented but he doesn’t need to suck up to every media personality that he has on the show. Maybe he’s trying to take the shine off others by making his laugh the center of attention. He’s definitely the most insecure celeb I’ve ever seen.
and the way he sucks up is even more annoying because he says the EXACT same thing to everyone,"There ya go! That's how you do it!"....and for someone who was on an sketch show, he always steps on other people's jokes or messes them up. Comedians who he interviews will say something sarcastic and he'll be like, "Nooo no, you can't say that" or something else to kill the joke, instead of adding on to it, or making it banter like Conan would do.
Same. I've never understood the hype. But I guess he's a comedian's comedian. Janine's comedic sets at comedy clubs were always intelligent. So I can see why she wouldn't be a fan of slapstick.
I think Norm is not for everyone, he has a very specific kind of humour but for those who love him, they are obsessed with him and his work. He once said comedy is surprise, so if you try to make someone laugh and they dont, thats funny. He really only cared for what he found funny and perfected it. Not to mention his sardonic smile and sharp wit, even if he was talking about smth horrible you could take it because of his idiot persona. Humour aside, he is the best talk show guest of all time with how trolls the talk show format
She also rightfully called Larry Flynt a pedophile right to his face when they appeared on Bill Maher's "Politically Incorrect" back when it was on ABC... Cheers to her!
I'll never understand Jimmy Fallon being so popular. He wasn't funny then and he's still not funny. The whole giggling thing was just annoying and fake.
I could see where it would really throw off the other comedians, I agree with Tracy that would piss me off. Jimmy doesn't seem like a bad person though in general he'd probably be cool to hangout with.
I never found Chevy's pratfalls and prop comedy schtick funny.. Growing up in Chicago, of course loved the Vacation movies. I thought he was good in that, but anything SNL to me was lame. It's probably because i'm younger and Chris Farley was more my time, and NO ONE did it as good a Chris.. 🙌
At least we have these fools trying to entertain us. So what if they fail. I lived in Cincinnati when Jerry Springer was the actual mayor, and I remember thinking, "Now I live in an actual 'Twilight Zone' episode." So entertainers try to save us from the horrors of reality.
@@Martell-XO As a Canadian, I find pretty much all American television shows are surreal (bullshit). We never understood "The Apprentice" but y'all made him President anyways. Anyhoo, get well soon.
@@CraftAero I’m American and you’re spot on. The sitcoms are lame and not even funny. I don’t bother to watch and haven’t for decades. Saw five minutes of “Friends” & turned it off.
They just made themselves look bad for standing by that POS and attacking Dunn, Lovett playing the victim is ridiculous. Yes, the dumb thing wasn’t an act with Victoria Jackson. Too bad. 😂
I think Fallon broke character once and realized that audiences found that amusing (because it wasn’t common) and then he simply decided to laugh during sketches as if it was real, only grab more attention.
It was definitely an attention thing with Jimmy. Audiences love when the actors break for real and have to struggle to hold in their laughter and not smile. When someone does it every sketch, it loses its magic. You've got to think that someone who would even try to be a comedian or tryout for SNL would love attention. Jimmy was probably almost addicted to it and would do anything to get it.
I think that you're trying to say the verse is saying men can give birth, I'm assuming because of a "transgender' ideology. Jeremiah 30:6 is saying "can a man give birth?", with the rhetorical answer being no, and then it's saying "so why then are there men doubled over with their hands on their loins AS a woman in childbirth?" "As" and "like" are tip offs that it's a simile, as in it's like something, but not is something. Such as the phrase "stubborn as a mule" or "hungry as a horse". It's drawing a comparision. Likewise doubled over "as a woman in childbirth" So these men are acting like they're experiencing pregnancy pain. And why are they acting like this? Because this is a prophecy of the time of Jacob's Distress, otherwise known as the great and terrible day of the Lord which we read about in Revelation, Malachi, and Daniel just to name a few places. It's the day prophecised about all over the old testament and several times in the New testament about when the Lord Jesus comes back which will be a terrifying day for all unbelievers. It's the day that in Revelation it says the kings of the earth hide themselves in caves and wish that the mountains would fall on them and bury them to hide them from what's happening. For all who have not placed their trust and faith in Jesus Christ this is a fearful day that is of Jesus coming back in wrath and judgement that precedes the eternal judgement of hell for sins, but you do not have to face that day, or the great white throne judgement for your sins if you place your faith in Jesus for him dying for your sins. He loves you and He wants you to come to know Him, and He wishes none to perish as He says in His word, but He is a holy and righteous God and cannot leave sin unpunished. So the only choice is to meet God as your Lord and savior or as your judge and I beg that you meet Him while you can as your Lord and savior.
I don't see a lot of brilliance in Belushi. He was a good actor and his one character, this kind of disheveled disengaged jerk character was good but not a lot more.
I didn't find Belushi as one dimensional. I think Neighbors is an underrated movie and he's great in that. Also see Continental Divide. He definitely had range. He died before we could see the possible projects he would've done.
I remember Chase was the star in the first season probably helped that he was good looking but fame went to his head and he really wasn't a movie star. Dan acktoyd and Belushi were a great team. I say good riddance to Chase he's a phoney.
Jimmy Fallon delivers pathetically poor monologues as a Tonight Show host. Either his writing staff lacks an authentic comedic sense, or Jimmy Fallon lacks authentic comedic timing. Either way hardly matters really, for many people like him succeed for being shallow in the entertainment industry.
I definitely would have been PISSED if a coworker gave me a bible telling me she was trying to save my soul. Nothing would piss me off more, and it would definitely give me a bad attitude towards her. Any niceties towards her would be done. And I definitely would show her just what I thought about her.
I think that was nice of her. If she's trying to keep people from hell, that's downright decent. Great intentions, and should be taken in the best way possible. You sound like the kind of person who has a Coexist sticker on your car but yell in people's faces every opportunity you get if they don't agree with you, and would actually burn them at stake if given the opportunity.
@@Mikezzz749 I have no clue what a coexist sticker is. I don’t believe in shoving religion down people’s throats. I will stand up for my kids and family and friends if people try forcing religion on them. I don’t believe for even a minute any religious rhetoric. I believe in being a decent person. Being kind and respectful and helping other people however I can. Because of a botched back surgery I have lost full use of my legs. I was shopping at the grocery store. And I was approached by a few religious nuts. Asking if they could pray for me. I said no thank you. And I rolled away. My son told me that they were following us. My son left my side to go to the meat counter. And he was gone literally 45 seconds. And the religious nuts approached again. And I told them to stop don’t say another word. I’m really not interested in whatever they are pushing. And I rolled 5 feet to the bread section. And these 2 freaks approach AGAIN. The 3rd time within a 20 minute shopping trip. And I asked are you 2 suffering from a brain injury??? They looked shocked and shook their heads no. And I asked are Autistic? Again shook their heads no!!! Then I asked are you mentally disabled? And they said no. And then I said oh so you’re just STUPID. And they practically ran for the door to leave the store. My son watched me from the counter. And laughed because he could see I had full control over the situation. Being polite didn’t work with them. Being blunt didn’t work with them. Being straight up rude was the only way to get my point to leave me alone. I don’t like being mean. But when people refuse to hear me. Then I’m left with no choice to get them to walk away. After I paid the bill. We left and saw them at the stop light. Thankfully they didn’t even look in our direction.
@@Mikezzz749 She's trying to bring people into her delusion, where you get tortured in hell regardless of the life you lived, if you don't bow down to the "all-loving" god. Screw that.
@@jsmall10671 just because you're not fond of the idea of God has zero bearing on whether God is real. When we look in the mirror and see 40 trillion cells all working together in a collection of organs that make up the organism that our souls occupy, and each cell being as complex as a miniature New York City, with up to 100 million molecular machines inside of them, and us having more machines in the tip of one of our fingers than all of the machines created by human beings thought all of history, I think the obvious delusion would be to take God out of the equation. But fair enough, if people prefer to hold onto their delusion of no God, that's their prerogative. I still think it's noble to attempt to shed the light of truth into the lives of those who have poisoned their minds with obvious lies. It is indeed noble to try to help someone in the biggest and most profound way possible. It's also important to allow moral agents to make their own choices and to respect that agency in their souls to choose as they would.
Certainly didn't belong in the workplace. When my infant daughter died, a co-worker told me she was in limbo because I didn't belong to her religion. I can see Victoria doing something like that. Irritatingly patronizing.
Chris Kattan is extremely talented I think, he melts into every role, and that's why I read his autobiography... but his head is in the wrong place re. social matters. "Does not play well with others", he's thought of as a braggart, slightly obnoxious, often arrogant, and patronizing to other actors.
@robertmaybeth3434 I love Norm for this not necessarily because it was Kattan but more so because Kattan took his shoes off on a public plane and Norm acted accordingly
There is no category of people on the planet as nasty to each other as comics. Comics and TV comedy writers are absolutely brutal. They are among the most insecure people alive, consequently, when they have success they almost instantly become absolutely insufferable narcissists, and if they don’t have success, or not as much as they want, they become bitter and petty like no one else. There are exceptions, but in general, they are awful to each other. They don’t necessarily treat other people badly, but I have never seen bullying and outright cruelty like I’ve seen it among comics and especially comedy writers, and I’ve had a wide experience of workplaces.
We LOVED Chris Rock's insanely funny politically INCORRECT humor, especially when he poked fun at his own race! No way he can do that now and I've noticed that a number of his sketches are either edited or no longer available!
I never found Fallon funny, even to this day. At a Universal Studios tour I had to endure a canned guide video starring him and I wanted to rip that monitor off it's mounting. And Victoria pushing her religion on coworkers is muy no beueno. It violates the rule "thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself".
taking anything kattan says is problematic. he constantly changes his story and always in an effort to make himself look better. if anything, he has reenforced the criticism that's been leveled against him through the years just in how he has responded and changed his story constantly.
I just finished reading LIVE FROM NEW YORK and it's incredible. Janeane Garofalo needs to get down off her cross. She admits that from Day One she had a shitty attitude about the show. And she almost immediately started whining to the press and martyring herself over it, hoping it would help her get off the show. Meanwhile everyone else who was working their asses off to make a good programme was having to stand by and watch one of their cast members try to hurt the show. Believe me, once she finally did leave she was not missed.
The thing about Victoria Jackson trying to preach to her costars. I’m happy she has a faith and it’s important to her, but there are clearly people you can’t preach to and were I in her position, I wouldn’t even try. She’s braver than I would be.
Night at the Roxbury is a totally underrated movie. They should do another one now with them being old, although it would be a drama more than a comedy, and prob sad as phuck.
I loved Chris Kattan. He had a car accident or something and was injured badly and then got addicted to the pain meds. I think he’s sober now but he was away for so many years idk if they’ll let him in.
Norm Macdonald was one of the funniest guys ever... that and the fact that he was Canadian and a member of one of my favourite shows- The Fairly Oddparents,- made him one of the best SNL weekend update hosts of all time.
I realize I'm probably alone in this opinion, but I never thought Norm MacDonald was funny in the least. Kattan was much funnier than him at SNL. Fallon could be ok, but his constant breakups were distracting. Chevy Chase of course was a well known asshole.
Victoria Jackson gives people an audio version of the Bible during Christmas, and they have a problem with it? Not really a big deal in my opinion. It is fricking Christmas.

The waitress came out with a HUGE vanilla sundae and a tray of a few different sauces and a bunch of different toppings. And said I have to go would you fellas mind eating this for me. They accept it and before he left he paid their tab. Or the couple who had just gotten married. The Bill was in the area and he photo bombed them. They invited him to join them and he did. He danced with the bride and did shots with the groom. Then he scribbled a note as he was sneaking off and he wrote them a personalized note thank you note and gave them a grand. None of that sounds prickly to me.
Murray at least seems to have more substance, whatever he's exuding at the time.
Unless you're an aspiring actress who is 25% his age.
I understand he's had certain problems that are really no secret, like the old glug-glug i.e. booze, and that will sure as hell make a man moody...also he's pushing 80 or something now. I'd hope to see Bill Murray in at least one more great movie or at the very least, several more guest host spots on SNL, he's a great comedy talent one of the best ever -
I heard a lot about Chevy Chase. Nothing good comes to mind.
Me too. For many years back he had a reputation about being an asshole basically. After a while of hearing the same type of stories over and over again, you have to believe they are true.
Fallon is still laughing like an idiot
yea, all the way to the bank
@@blazemordly9746 Fallon's show is dying.
@@ScottFunk-us6ro- How’s that? He’s still #1 in the ratings.
@@kingtrance307 Actually no, Fallon is on life support by the pharma companies.
I dont like anything about him. He was never funny on SNL and he's a horrible late-night host.
I never thought Chase was that funny, no matter what he did.
Same here.
Same
He was better than Jimmy Fallon.
@@foto21 Chase tried a little too hard to be like Leslie Neilson, but while breaking the 4th wall by being immature enough to be acting like you all know he's just trying to be like him. He never felt authentic in any of his scenes / movies. Sure, he could be funny, but that was 95% the writing, and 5% chase just being deadpan stupid. I have the same impression of Bill Murry; same cringe seriousness while trying to be comedic that just comes off as snobby and immature.
I thought he was frequently hilarious but as his comedy slowly got worse and his personal behavior made it to the public eye he became easy to ignore.
Norm once said he created “Brian Fellows’ Safari Planet” to force Tracey Morgan to say three S sounds in a row.
Why Belushi didn't think women were funny while he was working with Radner is beyond me.
Prejudice works like that
I mean, it was clearly a idiotic stereotype .. but I'm sure he genuinely believed it being around a ton of unfunny women. You just don't see women stand up, and they're generally side characters in any production. Considering just the women mentioned in this video .. he wasn't precisely wrong if that's what he was going by.
I can think of very few "celebrity" .. as Tracy would put it... women that I've ever found funny. They can certainly deliver some funny jokes .. but that's the writers pulling their weight. I've never thought " OH! It's _____ ! I need to see what they're doing!" Roseanne Barr is probably the only one I've ever come close to that. She's genuinely witty. even if her brain rotted with age and she went nazi.
He was a jerk. He's funny as shit but he had a bad attitude about certain things, like women in comedy.
Because he was a misogynistic asshole, and if he diminished and dengrated the females, he obviously had a shot at more screen time for himself and anything he wrote.
I’ve known many witty funny women in real life, but for whatever reason they don’t seem to raise to the level of hilarity as men as often especially in standup (many women are good comedic actors). At the end of the day, I do think the super rare top level of comedic genius seems lacking in women for some reason, and I’m not exactly sure why but probably some confluence of factors, and I wouldn’t say it’s thus necessarily impossible for women to reach that uber elite level.
Chevy Chase being a massive egotistical asshole comes as quite a shock...to no one.
Belushi, Chase and Murray were all jerks
Facts
You can't tell because you never met any of them. Are you a jerk?
Rest In Peace, Charles Rocket. He was incredibly funny when he guest-starred on a "Moonlighting" episode, portraying Bruce Willis' character's brother, "Richard Addison." Best Episode: "Brother, Can You Spare A Blonde."
I have heard stories about Chase not being very friendly.
Chevy Chase is still a knob!😊
Truly a classic knob, but covered in warts.
Shocked the list doesnt just contain Chevy Chase..EVERYONE despises him
They all seem rather petty
Go into show business and find out how much fun it is.
@@Martell-XO Pass.
My favorite cast members are the entire original cast with Akyroyd, Belushi, Chase, Murray, Morris, Curtain, Radner and Newman. They used to have small skits that were spoofs of commercials. Very funny. One in particular I remember is from season 2, I think. It's a parody of the old "Perrier" bottled water commercial. The product was called "Swill" and it's bottled straight from the east river in NYC. Great stuff.
It think it was Lake Erie that Swill was bottled from. But yes, hilarious

As a huge fan of A Night at the Roxbury, the fact that Ferrell and Kattan had a feud makes me sad.
Sandler's comedy WAS childish though... Whatever people think about her over silly reasons like politics and other garbage, she was right.
I used to filter my dates based on whether they found Sandler hilarious. It was OK if they didn't like him or thought he was childishly funny, but a lot of women back then though he was comedy gold: I knew they were too dumb to take seriously
@@krugerstan I can't watch his comedy at all.
His dramas though? Shockingly good.
@@krugerstanthat's interesting because I never met any female friends who thought him funny. Myself included.
@@bridgethockney2303 See there ya go! Genius confirmed.
To be honest, I don't care about their politics or stuff like that, the one person who I feel I would not want to end up hanging around the most: Chevy Chase. I even ran into Dan Akroyd at a HOB function I was co-producing and someone asked him about working with Chevy and his response was a masterful deflection that is summed up best as a very polite "I don't speak about that". And Dan is super nice and easygoing.
Dan and John were my favorite from the original cast.
Jimmy never was funny back then and still ain't funny now.
Right? Who did HE suck off?

@@aussiejubes I totally get it. I like her, but at times she is a bit too much of a ham and often injects the wrong vibe into a character somehow, if that makes sense?
Who the hell ever got along with Chevy? That would be more novel than who couldn’t stand him.
Cheri had an insane rockin bod back then, never shy to flaunt it either.
Because if a person has “an insane rockin bod” you gotta flaunt it while you can. When I was a young woman, guys would step right in front of me to ask me my name, or for my phone number (pre-internet days, so no email), or give me _their_ number, etc. I may have been flaunting my “insane rockin bod,” (and it was-plus my grandmother’s Swedish heritage gave me insanely beautiful golden blonde hair) but mostly it was a reflection of the era: mini-skirts, hot-pants, and other minimalist clothing. And it made me insane! I took to saying “Leave me alone-I need to be at my desk in five minutes” even if I had a leisurely 15 minutes. When hems came down, I was relieved…but even then, it didn’t stop until I was finally middle-aged and my hair turned into a dowdy light brown and my face had finally accrued some creases. Now that I’m approaching 70, I’m so glad that I’m basically invisible!
@@maryrosekent8223 Yawn.
Wow yes, she had a stunning sexy figure. She had that character that would come on to men, a 'floozy' who's sexual advances, gyrations were so obscene and silly it turned the men right off. The problem is... she actually did have a smoking hot sexy body making the whole skit unbelievable.
Cheri Oteri, along with Ratchel Dratch, were both extremely talented sketch players, and absolutely killed every role on SNL. But unfortunately post-SNL neither seemed to have gotten a role that would show off their abilities afterwards. I still recall Rachel appearing in the S7E5 episode of "Portlandia" (as an old foreign woman Fred Armisen gets an arranged marriage with) and in a few minutes of her appearance, Dratch made the episode absolutely hilarious.
@@maryrosekent8223 Magnificent. You make social media worthwhile for insights like this. Pre-internet we males wandered around blind about what women were like.

There was an incident in the hall at SNL w/Murray and Chase and poor Harold Ramis had to come to a solution on the set of Caddyshack when the $$ investors demanded a scene with the 2 big stars. Thankfully Harold and Bill and Chevy got it together for that 1 scene with Chevy and the demented greenskeeper Bill. Or it just wouldn't be the same.
Ive heard nothing good of chevy chase
I never thought John Belushi was funny, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley and Chris Rock were funnier, that was the best SNL cast.
Phil Hartman was brilliant. Gone too soon.
Janeane Garofalo is pure anti-funny. She drains the comedy out of everything she's in.
She USED to be a good stand-up, but was poor in sketch comedy.
I love her
She was pretty good in The Truth About Cats & Dogs, but it was really more of a humorous role with some drama mixed in. That's about the only time I liked her.
I'm not a fan of Garofolo but she's 100% correct in stating that Sandlers comedy is childish.
He's worthless without a guitar or his constant screaming.
Which has had more success and a larger fan base and more longevity in the business? There ya go. Sandler knows who he is and he knows his lane. He found a niche style and audience and its proven to be very successful for him... whether you like his movies or not. And having worked on one of his movies, the guy is as nice they come and to everyone and goes out of his way to make sure he says hello or acknowledges you no matter who they are. Hes down to earth and just a good guy. You would be hard pressed to find anyone who has anything bad to say about him. And what about Garofolo? Whats she doing right now? Who even remembers her? Thats what I thought.
ll that proves is that the audience is childish, too.
@@avidadolares He's "had more success and a larger fan base and more longevity in the business". Yes. When you compare it to Garofolo's.
I remember the Saturday Night Live book said cast members at the time would say that Eddie Murphy's success went to Joe Piscopo's head.
I never thought Piscopo was funny, but Eddie is hilarious. He carried that show when he was on.
Absolutely. Murphy was a riot. Piscopo was...meh.
Nobody wants to be Chevy Chase... not even Chevy Chase!
When people do an impression of "a bad comedian", they are doing a Charles Rocket impression.
Charles Rocket was chosen over Jim Carrey to join SNL.
Yeah. But listening to them talk about it, can understand the thinking. Carrey was Robin Williams level of individual genius and anarchic. In Living Colour suited him much better in allowing him a lot of single focus skits. He would have absolutely eaten everyone else alive on SNL.
Victoria Jackson was in movies?? Must have been very memorable.
It's amazing the ego on people who tell knock knock jokes for a living
Chevy Chase is about as funny as a pediatric cancer ward.
Chris Kattan got lots of enemies 😂 no wonder his career not as smooth as others
You should Google the real reason
My favourites over the years are Chris Farley, Al Franken, Vanessa Bayer, Norm McDonald, Tim Meadows, Kevin Nealon, Cheri Oteri, Rob Schneider, Molly Shannon, Kristen Wiig, but for me, the greatest was Phil Hartman. Always Phil Hartman. Genius.
"Unfrozen Cave-man Lawyer" absolutely classic sketch...
Chase stuck the landing on Vacation; Belushi did so on Animal House; and Murray stole Caddyshack. All winners.
Chase did 3 Amigos, Murray did Garfield and Belushi did that film with Blair Brown
Fletch is a classic too.
Doesn't make 'em decent or likable guys. Plenty of assholes have periodic success, unfortunately.
What did we learn, kids? No one liked Chris Kattan.
I didn't even remember Garofalo was on SNL.
She was never really that funny she was just sort of a 90s Feminist comedian who got pushed because she had a routine calling out sexism on Beverly Hills 90210.
I didn't know she was ever a comedian.
She was a prominent SNL player and that was during a 90s golden era SNL. Maybe you don't remember her because she was among a very memorable cast and usually played 'secondary' roles and I don't know that she was there fore more than 1 or 2 seasons. Do you remember anyone else from those seasons?
@@batsnackattack Prominent ? She didnt make it an entire year and was never really lead writer on any major bits. Most of her contributions to 90s pop culture were romantic/comedy films, which admittedly were very good. Not really a knock Gottfried is one of my favorite stand ups and his tenure on SNL was ... well he didnt play well with that particular crew.
@@batsnackattack Garofalo was there for one season only, and said she absolutely hated the entire experience.
There is a pattern here. Famous people tend to be petty, selfish, envious and vindictive. They manipulate, lie and scheme against each other. Success can only be reached by those who can outlast all of the mistreatment by fellow celebs long enough to score a bigger role somewhere else. What a pathetic existence. Fame is stupid.
No and all of that is just the most silly thing someone outside that world might believe. You'd find, in their circles, no more and no less than at your secretary job, your muffler repair shop, your factory and any other field in the world.
As a broad rule, nearly the opposite of what you've descrbed makes or breaks success: people who are pricks, who throw others under the bus, who cheat, these people will lose out. Those who stay gracious and humble will win more success.
Of course the ultimate success tests remains selling tickets.
Something else you'd probably believe is they are all shallow people who need 'attention' to feel good. Those people exist (like among your fellow secretaries or gas and oil workers or staff anywhere) but find me a celebrity who's done well enough to become famous and almost without exception they have very little interest in the 'famous' part of things. It's nearly necessary to get and stay 'famous' to be a type who does not have much interest in that kind of attention and handles it as a professional and friendly part of their job even if they themselves would rather not be famous outside the career opportunities it comes with.
Morgan just comes off as oddly professional considering his image. He's right about the Fallon stuff, and he was called a hard worker by castmates on both shows.
I hate that kattan and oteri ended up being the way they were, I really loved those 2. Especially with Will Ferrel
Comedy is like music; it is very individual. Some people love a certain comedian, others dislike them. You're going to have ALL of us watching. Some who made it big I loved, or didn't like at all. I can imagine that's a pretty fierce battleground at times. I ish comedians could work on doing things TOGETHER more than they work on competition. I love shows that require all of them to act off the others. It brings out the best in all of them.
Tracey Morgan is an insult to comedy. I genuinely don't know why he is as successful as he is, he must have been one of those who took the deal Katt Williams didn't because there's no way he deserves to be where he is.
I think there's a clip of Norm MacDonald being incredulous about Cheri Oteri not knowing, as a sketch comedian, who/what Monty Python was.
Victoria Jackson giving her Jewish cast members bibles because she believed they were going to hell is a pretty braindead move.
To those people calling SNL male stars jerks, they were all pimps, the kings of television when it meant something. I don't begrudge them anything. They made me, as a kid, feel part of something cool when I couldn't be cool to save my life, entertained me and opened my mind, and gave me the incentive to be something other than a bootlicking company man. I thank them for what they did.
I had no idea just how many actors came and went on that show. I watched it when it began, even though I was a kid, all the other kids talked about was SNL (we called it by its full name) and Rosanne Rosannadanna. We had to watch it just for her. So I would try to stay up to watch it. But then that was it. Occasionally I would stop by and watch Eddie Murphy do his Mr. Rogers neighborhood and Little Richard Simmons but that was pretty much it. I had no idea Jeannine Garafalo was ever on that show, she doesn't seem funny at all to me, but, whatever. Interesting. Oh, and I always heard bad things about Chevy Chase.
Chevy Chase most hated.
Fallon’s lack of control during a sketch continued with his talk show. He’s so talented but he doesn’t need to suck up to every media personality that he has on the show. Maybe he’s trying to take the shine off others by making his laugh the center of attention. He’s definitely the most insecure celeb I’ve ever seen.
and the way he sucks up is even more annoying because he says the EXACT same thing to everyone,"There ya go! That's how you do it!"....and for someone who was on an sketch show, he always steps on other people's jokes or messes them up. Comedians who he interviews will say something sarcastic and he'll be like, "Nooo no, you can't say that" or something else to kill the joke, instead of adding on to it, or making it banter like Conan would do.
Funny Norm said that, I feel the same about him. I try and try and he has never made me even smirk.
Same. I've never understood the hype. But I guess he's a comedian's comedian. Janine's comedic sets at comedy clubs were always intelligent. So I can see why she wouldn't be a fan of slapstick.
I think Norm is not for everyone, he has a very specific kind of humour but for those who love him, they are obsessed with him and his work. He once said comedy is surprise, so if you try to make someone laugh and they dont, thats funny. He really only cared for what he found funny and perfected it. Not to mention his sardonic smile and sharp wit, even if he was talking about smth horrible you could take it because of his idiot persona. Humour aside, he is the best talk show guest of all time with how trolls the talk show format
Same. His Burt Reynolds was pretty good. But never found him funny at all.
Victoria Jackson was able to convince Al Franken never to speak to her again? What a genius!
I met Al Franken in an elevator. Nasty son of a bitch.
She also rightfully called Larry Flynt a pedophile right to his face when they appeared on Bill Maher's "Politically Incorrect" back when it was on ABC... Cheers to her!
A genius at being a no talent hack, you're absolutely right.
I'll never understand Jimmy Fallon being so popular. He wasn't funny then and he's still not funny. The whole giggling thing was just annoying and fake.
I could see where it would really throw off the other comedians, I agree with Tracy that would piss me off. Jimmy doesn't seem like a bad person though in general he'd probably be cool to hangout with.
John Belushi was never cool. He was a nonstop mess on that show, imo.
I never found Chevy's pratfalls and prop comedy schtick funny..
Growing up in Chicago, of course loved the Vacation movies.
I thought he was good in that, but anything SNL to me was lame.
It's probably because i'm younger and Chris Farley was more my time,
and NO ONE did it as good a Chris.. 🙌
I found the prat falls "comical" but not quite "funny".
Dan Aykroyd's, "Jane, you ignorant slut !"
Now, THAT'S FUNNY !!

They just made themselves look bad for standing by that POS and attacking Dunn, Lovett playing the victim is ridiculous. Yes, the dumb thing wasn’t an act with Victoria Jackson. Too bad. 😂
Kattan and Chase are noted jerks. And Fallon isn't funny.
Belushi just seemed gross to me.
I think Fallon broke character once and realized that audiences found that amusing (because it wasn’t common) and then he simply decided to laugh during sketches as if it was real, only grab more attention.
It was definitely an attention thing with Jimmy. Audiences love when the actors break for real and have to struggle to hold in their laughter and not smile. When someone does it every sketch, it loses its magic. You've got to think that someone who would even try to be a comedian or tryout for SNL would love attention. Jimmy was probably almost addicted to it and would do anything to get it.
Belushis death was as untimely as a sunrise. Nasty man.
Robin Williams testimony about that night, would give you chills. Man destroyed himself.
2:14 are you sure Brian Doyle Murray is related to John Belushi? I’ve never heard that.
Seems everyone hated chris kattan
He seems pretty dislikeable. He could be funny in sketches, but he couldn't carry them on his own.
I never found Chase funny in anything. Bulushi and Murry are funnier than heck!
Never knew who Chris Katten was until now. Guess I’ll have to take some work off Jimmy Fallon’s résumé.
Wonder if Victoria Jackson ever reflects on Jeremiah 30:6
I think that you're trying to say the verse is saying men can give birth, I'm assuming because of a "transgender' ideology.
Jeremiah 30:6 is saying "can a man give birth?", with the rhetorical answer being no, and then it's saying "so why then are there men doubled over with their hands on their loins AS a woman in childbirth?"
"As" and "like" are tip offs that it's a simile, as in it's like something, but not is something.
Such as the phrase "stubborn as a mule" or "hungry as a horse". It's drawing a comparision. Likewise doubled over "as a woman in childbirth"
So these men are acting like they're experiencing pregnancy pain. And why are they acting like this? Because this is a prophecy of the time of Jacob's Distress, otherwise known as the great and terrible day of the Lord which we read about in Revelation, Malachi, and Daniel just to name a few places.
It's the day prophecised about all over the old testament and several times in the New testament about when the Lord Jesus comes back which will be a terrifying day for all unbelievers.
It's the day that in Revelation it says the kings of the earth hide themselves in caves and wish that the mountains would fall on them and bury them to hide them from what's happening.
For all who have not placed their trust and faith in Jesus Christ this is a fearful day that is of Jesus coming back in wrath and judgement that precedes the eternal judgement of hell for sins, but you do not have to face that day, or the great white throne judgement for your sins if you place your faith in Jesus for him dying for your sins. He loves you and He wants you to come to know Him, and He wishes none to perish as He says in His word, but He is a holy and righteous God and cannot leave sin unpunished.
So the only choice is to meet God as your Lord and savior or as your judge and I beg that you meet Him while you can as your Lord and savior.
Murray rules, Chevy drools!
Didn’t Chevy Chase also get kicked off another show for being an a- hole?
Community. Oh they just *loved* him there.
Nice video to watch. I don't recall the last time SNL was funny. Stopped watching long ago, but it had good seasons.
Belushi was brilliant.
Chevy Chase was always a supercilious prick.
I don't see a lot of brilliance in Belushi. He was a good actor and his one character, this kind of disheveled disengaged jerk character was good but not a lot more.
@@batsnackattack
That's art. One man's poison is another man's tea. And your point is noted. And taken.
I didn't find Belushi as one dimensional. I think Neighbors is an underrated movie and he's great in that. Also see Continental Divide. He definitely had range. He died before we could see the possible projects he would've done.
Never liked Rocket or Kattan... never found them funny, and still don't...
Chris Katan seems like a common denominator. No wonder he didn't go on to do much. (I will say, I thought he was funny overall.)
I remember Chase was the star in the first season probably helped that he was good looking but fame went to his head and he really wasn't a movie star. Dan acktoyd and Belushi were a great team. I say good riddance to Chase he's a phoney.
Never could stand Chase. Zero talent.
Norm McDonald was so funny RIP Norm
Overrated.
Jimmy Fallon delivers pathetically poor monologues as a Tonight Show host. Either his writing staff lacks an authentic comedic sense, or Jimmy Fallon lacks authentic comedic timing. Either way hardly matters really, for many people like him succeed for being shallow in the entertainment industry.
I definitely would have been PISSED if a coworker gave me a bible telling me she was trying to save my soul. Nothing would piss me off more, and it would definitely give me a bad attitude towards her. Any niceties towards her would be done. And I definitely would show her just what I thought about her.
I think that was nice of her. If she's trying to keep people from hell, that's downright decent. Great intentions, and should be taken in the best way possible.

I don’t believe for even a minute any religious rhetoric. I believe in being a decent person. Being kind and respectful and helping other people however I can. Because of a botched back surgery I have lost full use of my legs. I was shopping at the grocery store. And I was approached by a few religious nuts. Asking if they could pray for me. I said no thank you. And I rolled away. My son told me that they were following us. My son left my side to go to the meat counter. And he was gone literally 45 seconds. And the religious nuts approached again. And I told them to stop don’t say another word. I’m really not interested in whatever they are pushing. And I rolled 5 feet to the bread section. And these 2 freaks approach AGAIN. The 3rd time within a 20 minute shopping trip. And I asked are you 2 suffering from a brain injury??? They looked shocked and shook their heads no. And I asked are Autistic? Again shook their heads no!!! Then I asked are you mentally disabled? And they said no. And then I said oh so you’re just STUPID. And they practically ran for the door to leave the store. My son watched me from the counter. And laughed because he could see I had full control over the situation. Being polite didn’t work with them. Being blunt didn’t work with them. Being straight up rude was the only way to get my point to leave me alone. I don’t like being mean. But when people refuse to hear me. Then I’m left with no choice to get them to walk away. After I paid the bill. We left and saw them at the stop light. Thankfully they didn’t even look in our direction.

When we look in the mirror and see 40 trillion cells all working together in a collection of organs that make up the organism that our souls occupy, and each cell being as complex as a miniature New York City, with up to 100 million molecular machines inside of them, and us having more machines in the tip of one of our fingers than all of the machines created by human beings thought all of history, I think the obvious delusion would be to take God out of the equation.
But fair enough, if people prefer to hold onto their delusion of no God, that's their prerogative. I still think it's noble to attempt to shed the light of truth into the lives of those who have poisoned their minds with obvious lies. It is indeed noble to try to help someone in the biggest and most profound way possible. It's also important to allow moral agents to make their own choices and to respect that agency in their souls to choose as they would.

I never found Kattan funny. Norm on the other hand…….legend.
Chris Kattan is extremely talented I think, he melts into every role, and that's why I read his autobiography... but his head is in the wrong place re. social matters. "Does not play well with others", he's thought of as a braggart, slightly obnoxious, often arrogant, and patronizing to other actors.
@robertmaybeth3434 I love Norm for this not necessarily because it was Kattan but more so because Kattan took his shoes off on a public plane and Norm acted accordingly
There is no category of people on the planet as nasty to each other as comics. Comics and TV comedy writers are absolutely brutal. They are among the most insecure people alive, consequently, when they have success they almost instantly become absolutely insufferable narcissists, and if they don’t have success, or not as much as they want, they become bitter and petty like no one else. There are exceptions, but in general, they are awful to each other. They don’t necessarily treat other people badly, but I have never seen bullying and outright cruelty like I’ve seen it among comics and especially comedy writers, and I’ve had a wide experience of workplaces.
Al Franken WOULD act offended when gifted a Bible......
I'm with norm on that one. I hated Katan. He wasn't funny at all
Now Jimmy Fallon can say to Tracy Morgan, where are you now? lol
We LOVED Chris Rock's insanely funny politically INCORRECT humor, especially when he poked fun at his own race!
No way he can do that now and I've noticed that a number of his sketches are either edited or no longer available!
I never found Fallon funny, even to this day. At a Universal Studios tour I had to endure a canned guide video starring him and I wanted to rip that monitor off it's mounting. And Victoria pushing her religion on coworkers is muy no beueno. It violates the rule "thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself".
taking anything kattan says is problematic. he constantly changes his story and always in an effort to make himself look better. if anything, he has reenforced the criticism that's been leveled against him through the years just in how he has responded and changed his story constantly.
The only funny women on SNL were Gilda Radner and Cheri Oteri, IMHO.
I just finished reading LIVE FROM NEW YORK and it's incredible.
Janeane Garofalo needs to get down off her cross. She admits that from Day One she had a shitty attitude about the show. And she almost immediately started whining to the press and martyring herself over it, hoping it would help her get off the show.
Meanwhile everyone else who was working their asses off to make a good programme was having to stand by and watch one of their cast members try to hurt the show. Believe me, once she finally did leave she was not missed.
There was a time, when I enjoyed this stuff...Now I don't care for any of them.
The thing about Victoria Jackson trying to preach to her costars. I’m happy she has a faith and it’s important to her, but there are clearly people you can’t preach to and were I in her position, I wouldn’t even try. She’s braver than I would be.
That's not brave. It's obnoxious. It's called minding your own business.
@ hi pot. I’m kettle. Nice to meet’cha!
Night at the Roxbury is a totally underrated movie. They should do another one now with them being old, although it would be a drama more than a comedy, and prob sad as phuck.
I loved Chris Kattan. He had a car accident or something and was injured badly and then got addicted to the pain meds. I think he’s sober now but he was away for so many years idk if they’ll let him in.
Last thing I saw him in was the middle and he was funny in it
Norm Macdonald was one of the funniest guys ever... that and the fact that he was Canadian and a member of one of my favourite shows- The Fairly Oddparents,- made him one of the best SNL weekend update hosts of all time.
used to watch that show growing up as well! in America
I realize I'm probably alone in this opinion, but I never thought Norm MacDonald was funny in the least. Kattan was much funnier than him at SNL. Fallon could be ok, but his constant breakups were distracting. Chevy Chase of course was a well known asshole.
Victoria Jackson gives people an audio version of the Bible during Christmas, and they have a problem with it? Not really a big deal in my opinion. It is fricking Christmas.
Not all people are religious and don't want to be lectured about a fairytale Messiah. So yes, that's a problem.
@@rustybear5125 giving someone an audio book as a gift is a lecture.....ok. Maybe life will get better for ya
Not everyone wants to read your comment either. It’s not a problem except that you would clearly make it a problem if the shoe was on the other foot
