    It'll be great if they can find some way to make him funny, and find medication to treat his awkward and disturbing twitchiness.


    Other than that, I'm so totally on board....

    Someone should hit him like Peter griffin did on the Family Guy and exactly for all those reasons peter yelled out. Overrated just like Andy Samber.

    I was surprised he got his own show, since I didn't think he was that funny on SNL.

    @OGHowie: I'm not surprised. There are plenty of examples that show you don't need to have talent to be on TV, in movies, sing, dance, ect...


    Oddly enough you would think that that would be the first requirement instead of being an option..

    "Taxi" or "Fever Pitch" ring any bells?


    How about "Doogal?"


    Playing the IT Guy on SNL isn't enough.

    As long as he doesn't start laughing at his own jokes every time he tells one, it should be ok. Its not that he isn't funny, he just isn't as funny as he thinks he is.

    @Jason Chen:

    I'm flabbergasted. Name three funny bits, acts or scenes he did and, if possible, I'll revisit them on the ultra net to witness the Fallon comedy onslaught.
