Unquestionably, he is this generation's Rich Little... rubber face, independently operable eyebrows, and perfect impressions of anybody he does. Eerie Keith Morrison, the Italian James Lipton interviewing Americans who don't speak Italian, the list goes on and on. His stable of characters is amazing and they are so perfect that I find him much more entertaining than even Darrell Hammond was.

I still think his Al Pacino is the best. I remember that opening skit on their very first HD show a few years back, where the whole cast was at a party and every cast member was doing an impression of some celebrity. His was Al Pacino... to perfection, and I couldn't stop laughing.

Agreed. He appears to genuinely have a real sense of humor, comedic timing, and he can take on characters and do impersonations and voices and dialects. Plus... he can act, and doesn't always have to read every word while staring into a cue card (January Jones... are you listening???)

Similarly surprising was Taylor Swift, when she did her Shakira impersonation.



I thought Will Forte as the "closet organizer" was absolutely hilarious! First truly new character and sketch idea in a long time. Reprising it with Hamm in the bar was also a novel and inventive and amusing idea... and it worked too!

I wonder if it will be repeated to death, and take on a "Magruber"-like tiresomeness eventually. Certainly on this first appearance it was nothing but laugh-out-loud funny.
