Stray Question 1

Whatever happened to “impressionists” (I mean the comedians, not the painters; I know what happened to the painters–they left their impressions)?

Rich Little doing Donald Trump–what a long strange trip that would have been.

    They were replaced by the comedianers, those guys and one gal who make their living pitching easy laff riots on the awfulness of all the bad people to msnbc or comedy central audiences who are still employed while suffering no hardship themselves. Jon Stewart, the Pope of Comedianers, now retired, occasionaly shows up to voice mild regret at the easy flies he pulled the wings off while the place burned down.

    That said, there’s snl and baldwin, y’know. ya used to occasionally see a guy who almost a spitting image of obama, too, although strictly speaking he wasn’t a comedian.
