Unbearably unfunny on SNL. Why do they put him in more sketches than seemingly any other cast member? He is by far the least funny 'Not-Ready-For-Primetime Player.'
Does the space cold make your nipples go all pointy?

I think it's partly because he actually has some sketch comedy and TV experience compared to most of the other cast members that just tend to be stand-up comedians and/or improv performers with very little to no experience working on TV.
A boat that floats on water can also sink in it.

He was so good on Psych. I'm rewatching the episode he did, and I think he was great in it.
However, now that he's been on SNL for 12 years, I think he's easily the best player on the show right now. He out-acts almost everyone else on the show, but that doesn't take much with all the new talent they have now.
