[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 435238, member: 5079"] Over the past few weeks. a trio of documentaries about 80s comics. Each documentary is very reflective of its subject. JOHN CANDY: I LIKE ME and BEING EDDIE (Murphy) were both great. John’s was sweet and warm, with just a touch of pathos; Eddie’s was sharp and humorous, even 4 decades into his career he's just as funny. I'M CHEVY CHASE AND YOU'RE NOT was, like its subject, anti-interesting and anti-funny. I don't know how he was ever the breakout star of the first cast of SNL. I think he was the least interesting of the bunch, which is saying a lot with Lorraine Newman there. Sure he made a couple funny movies in the early 80s, but I don't find them funny because of him. They'd have been just as funny, if not more so, with Bill Murray or Steve Martin. Watching him dodder around at 80 trying to do schtick reminded me of the elderly Three Stooges. [/QUOTE]
