3. Not as bad as the fabulously unfunny Colin Quinn. |

8. I'll agree with that. I never understood how he was thought of as a comedian |
|
He just seems like that annoying guy sitting at the next table at a bar.

4. You might think better of him if you'd seen Brad Hall from the mid-'80s |
|
Horrifying. Norm McDonald wasn't that hot, either; he ran a handful of jokes so far into the ground he hit lava ("...You guessed it, Frank Stallone!", "or as I call it, Nazi Germany!", "Germans love David Hasselhoff", "once again, the worst job in America... crack whore!"). Ugh.

9. Brad Hall...from "the dark years." |
|
I was never crazy about Norm either, but some people seemed to love him.

5. How did Jimmy Fallon get to where he is today? |
|
I mean, like Seires-ly! Just how many degrees is he from Kevin Bacon?

6. Lorne Michels thought he appealed to the teenybopper crowd. |
|
IIRC, Fallon didn't even audition for Weekend Update.

7. Not my favorite, but I liked him. |
|
One of my favorite jokes of his involved creationism. He said dinosaurs will now be referred to as "Jesus horses."
:rofl:

11. Don't know, but the delivery was great. |
|
My personal favorite, though, was Norm MacDonald, even though he's a RWer. :(
