Sorry I can't go into that much detail, I've been working pretty hard this week. I will say, however, that I thought the best skits were as follows:

Kerry's Interviews - quite funny as the man made his selections. Bush had the best lines of the candidates, and I liked how John was trying to avoid talking to Edwards. I also liked how Darrell was easily mistaken as the politicians he has portrayed, it shows that he is becoming a popular namesake.

Lawrence of the Boardroom - perhaps the best skit of the night. The dialogue was incredible, the actions superb, and brining in the great Peter O' Toole as a cameo to delve into a true Larry of Arabia parody was brilliant. Poor Lawrence, though, he must have trouble with pattern recognition (i.e., the match). There need to be more skits like this, that delve into what drives the characters to act so absurdly rather than just having them act wierd with no proper reason.

Totally Cliche Show - an incredibly foolish horror film premise slammed by a group of geeks, I just had to laugh at this. The movie clips were completely hilarious, and the commentary was for the most enjoyable, though it did deviate at some points into mere schoolyard insults rather than clever put-downs.

The other skits were so-so, but these three really did it for me. That and the Update, update rocked. All in all, nice job working with David Cross. You made me laugh at a man I have no respect for in real life.
