Remember when you LOVED Jaime?

I think that both Jamie Kennedy (see his Experiment) and Tom Green were amazing at crazy-character-based filmed improv prank comedy, but that neither has much range outside that. Would love to see more of that kind of thing from either or both of them, if someone would give them a platform, but I have no desire, for instance, to see another minute of Tom's stultifying and presumably cancelled home-based talk show.

I've always liked him. He is extremely kind and personable, and can be very charming in conversation.
I adored him when Scream came out, but let's keep in mind I was in like the 7th or 8th grade, and I have always had a thing for socially awkward nerds.
I thought films like MMW and KOS were funny in the same vein as the Wayans Brothers "White Chicks". Randomly humourous movies with exaggerated characters that most people qualify as guilty pleasure comedies.
Anytime I have been in a group setting where either of those movies were playing, people found them to be funny. However, altered states of mind were commonly present at the time of viewing. Haha.
I did like his character in Ghost Whisperer, but I would classify my absurd love of Ghost Whisperer to be one of my great shameful secrets.
I have seen his stand up in the past, but honestly can't remember my reaction to it either way, but seem to recall thinking by his disheveled appearance, he looked like he was either using recreational drugs or depressed. Just something about his energy seemed sad.
I still like him, however, I think he has a very down to earth quality which reminds me of guys that I have known in the past.
Forever the kind of goofy, kind of awkward, kind of socially unpredictable, kinetic guy that isn't always perceived the way he'd like to be. -

Maybe it's because he's one of the only performers to go out of his way to attack fans and critics who don't verbally fellate him for every single thing he does?
He insulted the fans at E3, he tried to conflate hecklers with critics who didn't like his movies (a sentiment shared by the vast majority of the public), and when he was told that he needs to curb his over-reactive behavior, he doubled-down.
His career tanked for a reason. It's not anyone's fault but his own, because people don't like watching a multi-millionaire cry like a petulant baby whenever he's criticized.
Everyone who ever loved you was wrong. -

I've never known this actor until I first watched him in
Ghost Whisperer
One month ago!
I love his character on the show.
I'm surprised to read comments saying that he's some kind of capricious diva. The interviews of him that I read here and there on the Net didn't make him sound like that. -

I was a big fan of his 10 years ago, I really liked The Jamie Kennedy Experiment. Malibu's Most Wanted and Kickin It Old School were okay. He redeemed himself a lot with Blowin' Up but then that whole incident happened and he fell off the radar. Last I saw him was on Entourage. Oh well. I guess he's still okay because his act never changes.

I used to like him and had a crush on him back in 10th grade. I loved "Malibu's Most Wanted," and I watched the "Jamie Kennedy Experiment" a couple of times. I thought he was funny and nice, but honestly, he's kind of a one trick pony. He usually just plays the goofy, unstable guy.
I saw him do some stand up where he got really angry at some woman in the audience. I don't even know what she said. She probably said something rude, but still, he came off as a big jerk to her. It left a bad taste in my mouth
I know he was in the "Ghost Whisperer" with Jennifer Love Hewitt. They dated for a while, and I was always confused on what she saw in him. I mean, he's mildly attractive, but she seemed like the type who would want a guy who's extremely put together and serious. (Not really a Jennifer Love fan, by the way). For some reason, their relationship felt like a PR stunt.
Anyways, so yes, I did like him, but he just isn't that attractive to me. I thought he used to be really hot, and he doesn't seem that talented or that nice. I don't know what's with him. He'll probably do some reality show in the future. -

I have always loved Jamie Kennedy and always wil1908l. I do remember hearing about that E3 thing and watching some of it on YouTube and YES - he DID bomb - but come on, every comedian (every entertainer, or EVERYBODY) has a bad day or two at their job.
Love him in the Scream films, love watching the zany over-the-top Malibu's Most Wanted and Kickin' It Old School, love the Jamie Kennedy Experiment and Blowin' Up. He's a funny guy who started out as an extra and has gone all the way to starring in comedy films and TV shows. And from what I've heard, a very nice and humble guy too. As a filmmaker myself, I hope to work with him someday.
