      He is neither underrated or overrated. He is the breakout star this season hands down so he is not underrated. Most of his impressions do work so he is not overrated. In fact one of the best skits all season is when he did an impression of Mayor Eric Adams. He is also in a new Fan Duel commercial doing a bit as the voice inside Charles Barkley's head. He is awesome and hilarious indeed.

      My understanding is that they are friends now. She was going through a lot of drugs at the time and were a nightmare tennant and she owns that completely.
