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 his best work was on Newsradio. Aside from Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, I don’t remember anything he did on SNL where he was at the center of the skit.

Dude was a swiss army knife. From great impressions (Sinatra, Clinton, Donahue, McMahon, Jesus Christ, Trump, Heston, James Stockdale), to original characters (Anal Retentive Man, Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer, Frankenstein, Dieter's girlfriend Helmut, plus the VO for Deep Thoughts), and even when he was just playing the straight man, he could make basically any part sing.
I get it, but I just don’t remember ever getting big laughs from him. He hit for average, not home runs, for me.

I love Will Ferrell. I enjoy his whole thing almost all of the time. He's a talk show guest I'll always click on.
One of my fav things is him forcing Tim and Eric to watch Top Gun in Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie.
