Anyone remember this character from Saturday Night Live?

Dana Carvey was sooo funny back then. How come he's so unfunny now? So many SNL alums end up making bad movies and fading into obscurity...

1. Church Lady!

2. That's because they allow

their political opinions to let me see that they were really jerks the whole time, so I stop finding them funny.

Examples: Dana Carvey, Dennis Miller, Ben Stein....

4. He had some health problems. I think they involved some medical

malpractice and he may have been critically ill for a while.

8. i loved it

when the church lady talked about Santa and how he really was Satan (just without the 'n')

9. Me too! And some of her guests!

Fred Savage as her counterpart...priceless.

10. I swear they got the idea for that character

from my ex-mother-in-law. You have NO idea how hard it was not to bust a gut when he was on SNL because it pissed crabby old hubby off!

[Kathy in Cambridge]

11. I can think of many people who could have inspired that character

unfortunately.

:eyes:

17. Are you

PICKING ON ME?
It's because I'm short, isn't it? I knew it!
Not everybody is taller than 5'4" you know.
You really should be more tolerant.
How would you feel if you were born this way?

OPPRESSION OF THE VERTICALLY CHALLENGED!!!

POLICE!!!

:silly:

25. I'm not paranoid nor do I whine

but this is definitely weird...

[beam me up scottie]

26. Every post in here is a joke.

Did somebody alert?

[Kathy in Cambridge]

27. I'd rather not talk about it

:eyes: :crazy:

[El Fuego]

12. WHO WOULD POST SUCH A THING?!? COULD IT BE

SATAN???

:evilgrin:

[Arugula Latte]

15. Your naughty parts are engorged and tingly, right?

:evilgrin:

[El Fuego]

22. Yeah, and isn't that SPECIAL?

[asthmaticeog]

13. I never found Dana Carvey very funny.

He'd hit once in a blue moon, and then run the character he'd hit with into the damn ground. I actually consider him one of the main sources of the SNL diminishing returns jinx.

[lpbk2713]

14. Maybe he could get a gig as Dennis Miller's sidekick.

.....not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent.



The freeper types would bust a gut.

[Arugula Latte]

16. Does anyone remember Dana's "Lyle the Effeminate Heterosexual"?

It was about a guy who was very obviously gay. His kids would say, "But, Dad, we thought you were gay." And he'd say: "Whaaaat? That's pre-possss-terous!"

[Texasgal]

19. How CONVIEEEEENT!

Why is this thus? What is the reason for this thusness?

[peekaloo]

24. I still do "The Superior Dance".

but Dana can bite me.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

28. There are so many SNL alums that have turned repuke

or just faded into obscurity...
