Posted: 1/27/13 at 10:38amBill Hader is a gem. I liken him to Will Ferrell, who was superb in every single skit he did, but who seemed to be underheralded (I may have made up that word). But now he's gone on to stardom. I hope Hader follows suit!

Their (even) take on Catfish was pretty much spot on.

Posted: 1/27/13 at 7:00pmBill Hader could definitely have a solo career. A Stefon movie, please!

I can see that. I think it was a bad choice to have the Circle Work thing *and* the firehouse thing both in the show. They should have dropped the first one.
I did like the Maroon 5 rumble with Train.

Posted: 1/28/13 at 12:37amI agree Namo to have one follow the other back to back pretty much came across a little like Fag Bashing to me. Circle Work was pretty unfunny in and of itself.

Circle Work really made me long for Deep House Dish, especially since Andy/T-Shane was already there!
The Train v. Maroon 5 rumble was the highlight of the show for me (followed closely by the end of the opening monologue)!

"whenever Kenan is in more then one skit, you know its gonna be a bad night"
You might know that but I've never known that at all.

Posted: 1/28/13 at 12:27pmI actually always enjoy Keenan. I find his foolishness endearing and a bit contagious.

i find Kenans impressions horrible and cant think of one skit he does that has made me laugh. and that dumb talk show he does where he dances? its a one joke skit stretched for 5 minutes and mulitple episdodes. just retarded.
I will say i did like his MLK, that was funny.

Yeah, I think he's actually one of the stronger cast members. Not necessarily for impressions, but he has a mischievous quality about him that I like.
He's always got that sparkle in his eye that says he's up to something - whether it's breaking into song and cutting off Lindsay Buckingham, shouting zut alors, or as a scared straight leader that's very in tune to pop culture!

PHYLLIS, thats it, WHATS UP WITH THAT. Can you tell me why you find that funny? Im not trying to be a wiseass, maybe im just missing something, cuz again its a one joke skit and a bad one at that. at least in my opinion.
I dont mean to pick on him, but hes been there longer then anyone and again can you name any great skit? i think that sparkle in his eye is him saying, damn, i cant believe im still on this show! ha. i dont dislike him, he seems like a nice man, just dont find him funny, then again, i find it hard to not to hit the FF button after a minute on just about any skit

You can't explain why you find something funny, you just do or you don't. I love What Up With That? as well.
Suestorm, that sparkle in his eye is for you and you alone, just to piss you off!

Posted: 1/28/13 at 3:07pmWhat Up With That? is 1000 times funnier than using "retarded" as a perjorative.

"What Up With That? is 1000 times funnier than using "retarded" as a perjorative."
I agree. I really dislike when people use that word.

STOCKARD, i mean if we are going to play word police here. Odd that you have a problem with a word not used as a insult to a person, but think its ok to make fun of someones looks, or that Sarah Jessica Parker looks disfigured.... just sayin~!

Posted: 1/28/13 at 10:15pmWell to be honest there was a time there when SJP was making a fortune being presented a a fashionista. I say that commenting on her looks is fair game in that regard.

Posted: 1/28/13 at 10:27pmCreating a false equivalency on comments on a celebrity's looks and using the word "retarded" in that manner does nothing to advance suestorm's argument.

Posted: 1/28/13 at 10:29pmSHHHHHHHH! She thinks it does!
