I love "act up guy"(season three) for some reason. I really like it when guys do gay voices. Its really attractive to me when its not permanite. LOL. Just a weird little secret I have :D

I also like his vera de milo character. I crack up everytime I watch those sketches.

i've just finished watching ILC 3.........hilarious........better than ILC 1 i reckon...............and it's really funny to see how they have all progressed and matured.........and yes Jim IS the outstanding performer by that stage.........(i'm trying to be unbiased here.......lol).....
I especially love the 'hand that rocks the cradle' p*ss take, and the mens feelings group.........

but my FAV so far is in the locker room............Jim's trying to get the cameras attention behind the interview..........and when he uses the foam hands as wings, i almost choked with hilarity...........

Interesting to see J-Lo.......lol............
she's kinda little and chubby in it..........so the poor lass is always wearing a duffle coat or a raincoat.........presumably to hide her curves...........lol.......

I always liked when he played the boy who thought he was a green baret/security guard.

i've only got ILC 1 and 3...............but i wonder if Jim misses the excitment and variety of working on the show?.........it looks a lot of fun..........

by the way...........did he write the stuff too?.........

fluffy :wink:

Yes he did, Fluffs.

I love Dicky Peterson Cherub of Justice too, JustFacts, He reminds me so much of The Cable Guy. But I also love The Background Guy and Snow

i thought so..............maaaan!.......what a talent..........lol.......geez the characters are so funny............lol........

i wonder if he misses the challenge of coming up with new stuff and creating new characters...........i guess the movies kinda come as a readymade package.
ok he can develop them but to create from new...THAT must be an incredible challenge........

I read an article once that he would stay up all night writing and rewriting until he thought the script was perfect.

From the characters he played not mentioned yet, off the top of my head I'd have to say that I like the schoolboy Parnell (season 2). Sooo funny!

I like Parnell too.
Vera DeMilo and the horse call he did at the end of the skit
I haven't seen the season 3 dvd yet but I have 1 and 2 what I noticed is that at the end of the show when everyone was on stage dancing Jim seems to be uncomforable and finds ways not to dance.. anyone else notice this?

yeah...........lol...he admits he kinda felt out of it with the Hip Hop dancing..............lol

Gosh-I was young then when I watched him on in living color....I know I remember firemarshall Bill and his phrase..."Let me tell you something"...with his bald head on top and the hairs on the side looked like an afro- :lol: I also remeber the guy that lived in the box and his jar of poop- :lol: That show was just too much and one of these days I'll buy the cd and watch it but now can't...memories is all I have-little ones at that- :lol: :D
