Fred Armisen Must Die!

Kreth · 12-12-2009, 11:47 PM

As I sit here watching SNL, it occurs to me that this "comedian" may be the least funny cast member ever to appear on the show. He must have some serious dirt on Lorne Michaels. I can't think of any other explanation as to how he keeps his job. [/rant]

You are obviously too young to remember Joe Piscopo.

MedicCook · 12-12-2009, 11:52 PM

At least Joe Piscopo has a funny name.

Fred is one of the funniest names of all time. Fred Flinstone. Fred Mertz. Right Said Fred. I can barely keep a straight face while thinking "Fred".

Ok, you got me with that one.

I'm too sexy for this thread.

How about Fred Savage...that kid was funny.

And Fred Durst....he was....oh never mind, he was just a douchenozzle.

Now you have me thinking about the Wonder YEars and Winnie Cooper.

She grew up nice.

icehog3 · 12-13-2009, 12:08 AM

She most certainly did. I heard she was engaged to Fred Armisen.

MedicCook · 12-13-2009, 12:12 AM

I just did a YouTube search on this guy Fred Armisen and I have to agree with Jeff. The guy is not funny. I would rather club a baby seal than watch him again.

Actually, as a kid I used to sneak downstairs to watch when it was The Not Ready For Prime Time Players.

Do you remember how disturbingly unfunny Piscopo was? Like a 1980's Fred Mertz?

Piscopo was kinda hit or miss, and there was some other stuff like that, notably the "films" by Albert Brooks; but compared to Armisen it's comedy gold.

It just struck me as ironic last night, Armisen did a bit a Weekend Update as an unfunny Native American comedian. That's like Paris Hilton in a groundbreaking role as an untalented, rich skank.

Not trying to belabor the point, Jeff....I just can't remember Piscopo ever doing anything funny. But his castmates were all funnier than Fred.
