Hey I just want to take the time to say we had a great season. There may have been a few episodes with less participation, but as a whole we came up with some killer material and any comedy show would be happy to have us! Once again I�m kind of on a border of a harsh/nice reviewing streak. But let�s roll with it.

Walken�s Message: I love Walken but this wasn�t worth bringing him back. Yeah... Katrina�s a whore that�s great but comedically it�s nothing. And telling people they should die... I never found that funny. Sorry, but this was a downer, but you�ve had better stuff this summer Mark!

Carrell�s Monologue: Once again, this wasn�t the best mono. But I have to give you credit for providing Monos and CO�s and WU�s when needed. It wasn�t completely bad and actually the beginning was worth a chuckle or two. Once again my musical knowledge has limited me from knowing any artist mentioned in this sketch.

Gun Happy: I�ll say that this was okay. It wasn�t the most original idea, and it did drag on a bit. Ah well, maybe if it was seen it would have been better. It just seemed to go on with the same gag, cop pulling out the gun everywhere. The ending was a downer, it was predictable that he�d pull the gun out on the court. Eh, amidst the slowness it was still decent.

Goldenrod Greetings: Wonderful sketch Jim. This was just filled with some awesome one-liners.
My favorite was the line about reaching the �untapped market�. And the twist with the pervert owner. It was just a wacky premises that was boosted by some of those visuals which were very good. Dave�s speech at the end was predictable but the twist with card really brought it together. It�s that powerful ending that I just love!

JAY-C Show: Not the best outing for the recurring character. Without the sick clever lines, he�s just a crazy creep that would inhabit a MADtv sketch. That�s basically what we have here w/ the cum stains. Secondly, don�t have Hilary Duff cameo, that slut wannabee doesn�t deserve to mock appear on the show. I can deal with Lindsay, but not Hilary. But that wasn�t too much of an issue. If you plan to bring back JAY-C... craft some good lines before you come(cum) up with your premises . That�s what I do for Willy, and I�d be happy to help with the lines.

The Actress: Solid sketch. Seeing as though you were timed, I must commend you on a good job. Some of the one-liners were stale but for the most part it was a pretty good sketch. I think the narration was okay, but the director was excellent. He was wacky and oblivious, the perfect combination.

The Laugh Shack 2: I�m glad you�re racking up some recurring characters Jason. And congratulations on making this sketch an original piece rather than a carbon copy. I know I wouldn�t have been able to do it, so I commend you. Loved the ending with the rich guy, and these all new jokes were even better, and having Steve as a clerk was a good move!

Looting and Shopping Network: Well I did enjoy Urban News Report, too bad this didn�t live up to it. Sure some of the lines were okay and I loved the token white boy and the ending with the official that was a chuckler. Who would of thought we�d have 2 Rodney King references? But other than that, it was just a lot standard black jokes.

Before I end... does anyone else notice how similar Steve Carrell and John Roberts look? I�m thinking he�s the perfect guy for the impression!
