Clothes in the 90s were pretty baggy and generally ill-fitting. It’s possible he just hid his skeletal frame under those two-tone bowling shirts. And there were definitely seasons of the show where he looked way skinnier than other seasons.
Could he be any more —-
I will be the first to admit that I don’t really “get” getting engaged in the first place (in as much as it depends on a formal proposal, mostly because I’ve always thought it was weird that women start wearing a ring that tells others they’re almost off the market, but engaged men don’t typically), but I especially…
That was the cast that made things a lousy frat style environment for Michael McKean, Janeane Garofalo, Ellen Cleghorn, Chris Elliot and others. So maybe Bill had a point.
Which is about when I tuned out and never really came back.
I see Hartman as more of a “late 1980s” SNL product, even though his time on the show went well into the ‘90s.
Early 90s SNL was pretty interesting in that you had a late 80s old guard, which included Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, the bigoted blonde actress who I won’t mention by name, and Mike Myers, mingled with the new guard of more “wacky” actors like Farley, Sandler, Schneider et al. But they still seemed to jell really well…
Maybe he hated Rob Schneider because he just wasn’t very funny.
No, I would imagine that losing your child and then being told it never happened and was just a political stunt is what hell is like.
This isn’t enough. His followers who harassed those families need to be held accountable for their actions as well.
The biggest problem with this is that he was still on the air today, and still will be tomorrow.
Katie Rife wrote some great criticism of this film and the issue she took with it wasn’t so much the use of a fat suit, as it was a misunderstanding of what it is to be obese, to portray his life as pure misery as if the obese cannot experience any joy. That the film doesn’t really seem to understand. That it is…
Welsh dubs of Paw Patrol sound like the PERFECT stoner viewing material.
Amusingly Cleese pointed out at the same time that Monty Python wouldn’t get commissioned by the BBC today because it was “Six white men, 5 of whom went to Oxbridge”, without thinking about why they did get commissioned in 1969.
I also love how they say, “You can’t joke about/say anything anymore! You couldn’t make Blazing Saddles today!”
Once-talented and respected comedian senses he’s drifting away from the cultural zeitgeist, panics, blames the woke mob/PC police/kids these days for his problems instead of trying to learn something new, becomes tedious, unfunny crank. Tale as old as time.
Happily we still have more Reservation Dogs coming, which I’m pretty sure is Derry Girls’ cousin/uncle/nephew/grandfather/auntie.
Both shows can make me laugh/cry (and few shows make me cry since I’m a stoic bastage - though Better Call Saul recently did, ‘cause not a monster). Both manage to center their teen ensemble…
Right, I had someone tell me today that it won’t sway any conservatives and...were they going to watch this? Of course not.
I do think it can be edifying for people who want to do well but feel confused, and rightfully so given the dreck NY Times runs, but by and large: sometimes you’re okay with a good old fashioned…
Sister Michael is one of the greatest characters in TV history and I demand Siobhan McSweeney be in everything now.
