It wasn't as bad as any of the other cold-openings that have Fred Armisan doing his horrifically unfunny Barack Obama impression. It's is horrible, just horrible and the last time he opened the show - might have been last week - it was like a funeral. No one laughed to the point that it was uncomfortable.
You’re right about the Obama skits. It’s almost beyond belief how bad they are. I wonder if they do it deliberately so as to avoid actually mocking Obama. I mean, a clever writer could skewer Obama on his hypocrisy.
“it was like a funeral. No one laughed to the point that it was uncomfortable.”
PC isn’t funny...
They won’t go for the Bush-like humor, because the haters will come after them with a vengence, starting with the gays in 30 Rock...
