Family Feud
Maybe I�m not in the best position to review this sketch as I know next to nothing about Family Feud and the Manson family. A little inconsistent and random, but not unfunny. What exactly are the Lamberts supposed to be? Sometimes they�re just �normal� and simple, but sometimes they do appear to be crazy.

The Sneeze
Ah! Good lord, what an ending.
I mean, Jesus�no�dammit, what <i>are</i> agnostics supposed to say, anyway?
Good. However, the employees do seem to be pretty disrespectful, which makes the whole thing slightly less ridiculous.

An Announcement from the Treasury Department
�I knew we had a problem�� The repetition of this phrase is not a funny one, and just seems annoyingly redundant.
In general, the Dick Cheney shooting jokes are getting old. I�m all for never letting the guy live this incident down, but the jokes should be few and far between, and actually funny.
This sketch just doesn�t work. The idea doesn�t really make sense.

Crud�s Cyber Caf�
Name is just a little too blatant.
�foamy dairy brewery�? what?
�We�re not a sweatshop we�re a cyber caf� this doesn�t make any sense in the context.
�Single casket� Confusing�
Upon further reading, I really think I would need to see this sketch played out. I�m having a lot of trouble following it in print.
The thing with Doug and Jan is good. Doug seems to be the Charlie Brown type, doesn�t he?

Humiliating Memories
Okay, Bobby clearly wants his mom to shut up, but then he tells her to go ahead, because he couldn�t be any more embarrassed? This doesn�t make sense. There are a couple of things in this sketch that don�t really make sense; why a picture of him wearing a diaper is really all that embarrassing, for instance.
Also, the comment the mother makes about Julie is unnecessary.
Hmm, at first going into this sketch I wasn�t sure it was going anywhere, but I like the way it progressed, with the girl storming out because he doesn�t eat breakfast. I�m not sure how funny the dog food thing was, though.

Actors Forum
Probably more funny to people who are more film-savvy than I am, but it�s okay. It�s weird, the actors keep making remarks, and I want to disagree, but I can�t tell if it�s you, the writer, making that remark or you�re just trying to portray the character. But yeah, Harry Connick Jr. is kind of a joke, but well-known enough (especially in NY) that I think an audience would appreciate the abuse he gets from the likes of Spacey, Walken, and Malkovich.
