Are you crazy? That was beyond terrible.

It was a great impression, except that they did a terrible job of making him look like Pacino.

Do the Killers always suck like this? They're horrible.

Never heard them before, but that's pretty much the norm with the musical guests... since I listen to nothing but classic rock.

The drummer looks like Jason Lee in My Name is Earl.

dane cook, to me, IS hilarious.
however, on SNL it is up to the writers. AND... it's not just a college-kid thing.. my parents were watching part of the Vicious Circle special on HBO.. and they were rollin.

Dane Cook is hilarious...all the people who aren't finding him funny are probably expecting the wrong type of humor

You mean, the kind that involves laughter? Dane Cook is about as funny as a burning school bus.

Dane Cook hit his peak a year or two ago. Then he sold out and took on so much work that he wore out the extent of his limited material.

Didn't see the show or even know who Dane Cook is but the hosts are NEVER funny when they come out and talk. NEVER ever has that segment been funny.

Yeah I saw them doing a live concert on TV and they were awful.

You ever notice that Comedians or Musicians popular with College Students tend to suck hard, at least over the past 10 years?

I like Dane Cook. He does the same kind of delivery and jokes over and over...but its funny. I am in college tho so apparenlty i fit in with the rest.

That being said..he is not my favorite.....or even close. Eddie Izzard for the win!

I can see how some people do not enjoy Dane Cook's material. However, I wish you idiots on ATOT would remember that everything in this world is unique to each person, ESPECIALLY comedy. Some of you seem to get angry because one other person actually likes something that you hate. You guys are borderline rediculous.......

Bad at spelling? Is this a test? Respond to my post, not my lack of time to proofread all 8000+ of my posts over the past 6 years.

Dane Cook is boring.. I fell asleep 3/4 of the way through watching Vicisous Circle on HBO. I had laughed at two of his jokes up to that point, and thought a couple other bits were amusing but not really that funny.

Dane can be funny, but it took him way too long to warm up during the monologue. By the time I laughed at anything, he was almost done.

I generally liked the show, but The Killers blow goats.

did anybody record this? I missed SNL with Dane due to working late and I'm looking everywhere for the episode.

Thanks,
