I'm pretty sure both of you have made these exact posts at some point in the past.

This really isn't news. I knew, the first time I saw him strap on a guitar that SNL had pegged him as a kind of Sandler replacement -- a poor one to be certain -- right down to the stupid giggling between verses of the songs he was performing.

Further, how many sketches did he tank simply because he couldn't keep a straight face? I mean, when it happens once in a while, it's amusing, but every other week?

His first appearance as an anchor of Weekend Update marked the sharp decline of that part of the show. Whatever happened to the straight-faced delivery from the anchors? Even Norm MacDonald, who would occasionally smirk, delivered the most outrageous of lines (usually involving some spin on "crack whore") with admirable seriousness.

i thought there'd be a thread about him but i couldn't find one.

what's shocking is that he gets movies and he's been on snl awhile. and plenty of other spots.

i just don't get it, really.

he probably broke character in 85% of the episodes of SNL he was in.

That's the only thing I'd put in the PRO column on him. The only times I've laughed at SNL in the past 5-7 years are when he and Horatio Sanz bust up laughing.

Norm was the best Weekend Update anchor since the originals. He made me laugh incessantly.

But Colin Quinn was fucking awful.
