Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I think Jay Pharaoh is crazy talented but the terrible writers have no idea what to do with him. It's a shame.

his impressions are usually fine, but i don't care for him at all in regular skits

Mixed feelings on this, because every performer on SNL is basically expected to write for themselves. There are performers, and writers, and writers/performers. I agree he's not been utilized well at all, but at a certain point can't he start writing better stuff for himself?

I dunno, maybe. It may just be that he's a better performer than a writer. But what a performer!

i think rudnitsky could be alright with more of an opportunity...he has a natural charisma at least

[epilogue]

I'm really not into Kyle Mooney. One trick pony whose trick gets old in 2 minutes flat.

Also, I don't know who most of the people on SNL right now are. I'm looking at these lists and at a certain point I'm just like, wait, who?

The (Very Lazy) Sunday Routine of Vanessa Bayer of ‘Saturday Night Live’

I am a big fan of hers, but was totally bored by her Sunday routine. One of the worst ones ever.

I think the point is that you're supposed to imagine cuddling with her all day. That's how I read it at least.
