Totally forgot about this! Dane Cook is the funniest up and comer on the comedy circuit in my opinion. His puking skit almost had me sick from laughing!
I loved the Target skit the best and the turtleneck skit was really funny too.. Overall this was the best SNL I have seen this season.. Dane Cook looks like a poor mans Jim Carrey in the making good all around talent..
He's a comedian who many don't know yet or haven't been "exposed" to yet. He's on Comedy Central a lot doing stand up. He's been in a few movies (Waiting was a recent one; I would have seen it, but then I learned Andy Milonakis was in it and I determined it would be better to keep me from wanting to jump off a building by not spending $10 on trash). For a lot of people Cook is hit or miss. APPROVED! YOU DID IT!!! Now I'm going to do that every time I got to Target. I thought Taco Town was pretty damn funny just because it was absolutely ridiculous. The lettuce thing was also great; seemed dumb until the end: "Through good times and bad, there's lettuce." I need that on a shirt, haha. My ****ing god, I can't believe I watched SNL instead of going out last night. WTF?!?! At least it was funny.
I've heard some of his stuff on XM and I dunno... he's ok, but he didn't make me laugh my butt off like the first time I saw/heard someone like Mitch Hedberg.
His best stuff is some of the funniest I've ever heard, though some of his bits are just things that aren't that funny that he is trying to make really funny. Overall I find him hilarious though. I love the car wreck joke. "I was in the kitchen, and I heard it, so I came out!" And also the monopoly one. "It's 3 AM grandma, I quit!"
