For those who don't know, this is the guy who plays Dwight Shroot on "The Office". He's a brilliant supporting actor/character, and I expect this to be a very solid show next week.

 

That is all.

 

Thanks AJ.

 

I used to be a big SNL fan...even into the Jimmy Fallon years.

 

I tried to like Mad TV, but except for Frank Caliendo, nothing there has really struck me as fall-down funny.

 

I will give SNL another try. I never thought much of Tina Fey as a head writer. One sketch I remember is the "Woomba" commercial, which (ahem) acts as a robot vacuum for the female genitalia.

 

I found that gross...didn't find it funny at all. My wife, the lovely and talented Kimberly, thought it was funny (though rather icky). Go figure.

I found the Fallon years a bit overrated, too.....so I know what you mean. You might enjoy some of the new guys, though.....they have kept my interest lately, which is something I couldn't really say a few years ago. I think Tina Fey is pretty sexy, but I never found her all that funny either. I think the show, overall, is back on track though.

Sexy might be a bit strong...she is attractive, though.

 

Her writing skills leave a LOT to be desired, however. I don't find 30 Rock all that funny, either (except for the always over-the-top Alec Baldwin).

I watched about 20 mins of 30 Rock and turned it off....didn't find it funny, amusing, interesting, or anything that involves some sort of emotional response. I really didn't care for her movie, either....Mean Girls, or whatever it was. I saw it cause the critics dug it, but I was disappointed. I thought her self indulgent speeches toward the end were pretty lame. but yeah, I think she's sexy lol

Were you really expecting much from a Lindsay Lohan flick?

 

Lindsay Lohan when she was hot. rachael McAdams, and the other 3 were the only reasons I ever leave the movie on if its on.

Although Tim Meadows had his moments in it.

 

as for 30 rock, I'll watch it if I'm not doing anything, but the only times I ever laugh is usually because of Tracy Morgan. I hate alec Baldwin and wish he would leave comedy to people who can remotly do it (along with acting)

Agree...and I never thought I'd say that.

Disagree. He cracks me up...and is a good actor.

The ONLY reason I'd ever watch a Lindsay Lohan flick would be if she's either 1) naked, or 2) in a highly regarded flick. I just expected the movie to be better and got caught up in the tina fey hype....but I was disappointed.

SNL is consistently mediocre because they write a 1 hour-ish show and string it out to 1 and a half. All the funny skits go on about twice as long as they really should. I can't tell you how many times I laughed at the beginning of a skit then by halfway through had grown completely disinterested. Sometimes it seems like the show is run by funny people who have absolutely no faith in their audience so they repeat the same joke ad nauseam.

 

And I have no idea why anyone would ever think MADtv was funny. It's always seemed to me like Sketch Comedy for Dummies. The whole sketch comedy landscape has just been getting worse and worse since the demise of Mr. Show and Upright Citizens Brigade.

Agree on your first point. SNL has always had a tendency to do that. Remember the skit where the word "penis" was uttered something like 50 times? And that was at least 16 years ago.

 

Mr. Show I liked...but I vehemently disagree on UCB. The only reason ever to watch that piece of crap was Amy Poehler, who now does "Weekend Update" on SNL. Interesting, huh?

I love 30 Rock so much that I want to take it behind the middle school and imprenated it. :worthy: (It's from last week's show).
