According to Cracked (http://www.cracked.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=795&am p;amp;amp;amp;mode=thread&order=0&thold=0)

I still think the "needs more cowbell" sketch is the best one.

Cracked must have changed up their format. No more blantant Mad ripoffs, apparently.

I haven't particulary cared for either publication since I was a kid, but that's true. Cracked is to Mad what Spin used to be to Rolling Stone...when Rolling Stone was worth reading.

I was totally going to say the cowbell one before I opened this thread and realized it was a magazine thing.

That still cracks me up.

ha.

"I got a fever. And the only cure is more cowbell."

That tight, too short t-shirt. Banging that cowbell out of time with the music.

Comedy GOLD!

I loved when he came out with the cowbell during QOTSA's appearance. That made me do one of these :D

The Neil Diamond one is top shelf every time I watch it.

Maybe I'm biased because I love to sing Neil Diamond when I'm drunk and doing Karaoke.

I WILL SMACK YOU IN THE MOUTH, I'M NEIL DIAMOND

yeah i like that one too.

i like the one where he's a dog trainer, and he trains the dogs by being extremely sarcastic to them. like a dog won't eat his food, and he goes "oh, is the food not to your liking? well grab your leash, we'll go out, what are you in the mood for? oh wait, you're a fucking dog"

well it's funny when he does it

I don't want to be a bitch, but do you think Will Ferrell is super funny, or is he only funnier than the rest of the people on the show?

I've never seen any of these. Are you suggesting they're worth a look, then?

i think he's funny. i think he's funny beyond just being wacky and zany and making faces and stuff, too. like his interview on the daily show, that was good. or the commentary for anchorman.

I love his W impression. The Beastie Boys showed a clip of one of his "W public service announcements" between songs in during their 2004 tour, which was sweet.

However, if you see him during interviews, a lot of the time he'll try to stay in character like Colbert does with his personality but it just comes off as him trying too hard. At least it seems that way to me.

One guy who I respect likes him a lot, so I'm trying to keep an open mind, but I don't think I can sit through a movie where he's a main character. I enjoyed his cameo in Undeclared -- that was the perfect format. Someone told me to try Elf.

When I see him on the red carpet, he makes me cringe. He's not in Robin Williams territory yet, but he's borderline there.


I think that what bothers me the most is that people always said that WF was the glue of the show for the past however many years -- and they compared him to Phil Hartman. He's not in the same galaxy as Phil Hartman. So that's not fair to WF.
