Personally, I like the FAN.

poor kid... he has been type casted as the good burger kid

Screw alla uze. Keenan brings the funny.

Fat Ass Niggah?

Keenan makes me laugh. He's not good and has no real characters, but his mannerisms make me laugh. That's more than most of the cast can say.

Hell, his "Football Player Mom"(which player?) and "Al Sharpton" are hilarious!

al sharpton is horrible... i went to one of their showings and the people next to me were like keenan should run into a knife

Keenan's mannerisms are hilarious. I think he's good as a bit player (showing up once a show). I think you all are watching old SNL episodes through rose-colored glasses. The Carvey era was one of the worst ever. I don't think SNL is at its peak, but it is not at its bottom.

If that's your criteria, any number of mentally challenged people could take his place.

I don't disagree. It's far from high praise, but when we're talking about sacking people, I'll take the mentally challenged helmet-kid who makes me laugh over "The Falconer".

If the cast is shrinking significantly, I would say keep:

Fred Armisen
Will Forte
Bill Hader
Darrell Hammond
Seth Meyers
Chris Parnell
Andy Samberg
Jason Sudeikis
Kenan Thompson

Fire everyone else and add some young women who won't bring us terrible reoccuring characters that bring the show down to MadTV-esque levels.

Hell, at this point I'd say Lorne should bring on Jorma and Akiva as cast members.

You look like a rabbit.

You know they're going to trim down the cast and rename the show The Amy Poehler Show since she's in every fucking skit anyway.

God I hate her.

Well i hope it shrinks so much that there is no one left. This show has not been funny for many years now. The whole cast cannot are simply not funny. They think a great sketch is them all laughing their asses off at some pitiful skit. The writing is terrible and the loss of Fey is of no concern. When the women in the cast began to take over it immediately went downhill. The early to mid 90s was the glory period...and they won't be back i am sure. Good riddance to this piece of shit IMO.

I am with you. She is just the unfunniest person in the world....but you can tell that she thinks she is a comedy genius. Total egotist. Someone give her a reality check and fire her arse.

Poehler's got non-stop hotness, hardcore learning disabilities, constant horniness, and she's rockin' one leg. Jealous?

das

They NEED to get rid of Forte for no reason other than we won't have to see his god damned Bush impersonation any more. I think I hate his Bush more than the real one - the real one at least makes me laugh...

Without Forte we wouldn't have had the spelling bee champion though!

Sure.

For those who might not know, FAN stands for "Fat Albert Nitwit".

I know everyone's entitled to their opinion, but...

"Rick!......Rick!......Rick!......Rick!......Rick!......Rick!"

You know I was kidding....

As an early FAN hater, he has grown on me quite a bit. Even with his simpleton's grin. I wouldn't have a tantrum if he was cut however.

I don't think it was the worst ever, that belongs to the era right after the originals left. Now that was misery. I do agree that the Carvey era is way overrated.

I did, just thought I'd clear it up for the n00bs.

I like Keenan all right in the sketches where he pops out about 2 or 3 lines as a random background character who then just as quickly disappears (such as a soldier in formation, or some such). As a main character...meh.

Poehler is funny in about 1 in 10 bits she appears in (which as someone stated is all of them). That's not good. In fact, it's horrible. At least Sanz gets maybe 2 of 10 right.

I am still waiting for Maya Rudolph to be funny even once. Same for Mitchell.

Forte and Armisen only make the cut by standing next to those mentioned above.

Hammond and Parnell are the only veterans worth anything. Hammond could hold his own on any season's cast. Parnell doesn't do everything, but what he does he does very well.

I reserve judgement on the rest until after the next season.
