Darrell Hammond
 
Hammond's rogue’s gallery of impersonations does not discriminate, moving from Bill Clinton to Dick Cheney, from Al Gore to Donald Rumsfeld. He also has fun with those on the sidelines such as Tim Russert and Ted Koppel. Hammond’s talent has made him a comparatively long-lived fixture at Saturday Night Live, as he celebrates his tenth year with the show next season.

'SNL' boss looking for talent here
BY DAREL JEVENS Staff Reporter
 Chicago Sun-Times
 
It's nothing new for "Saturday Night Live" to look for fresh faces in Chicago, but this summer the search for funny folks seems especially serious.
 
No less than Lorne Michaels, creator and executive producer of the NBC show, has
been in town this week checking out the talent. It's a rare visit for the "SNL" top dog, who usually sends underlings on the scouting missions.
 
On Wednesday, Michaels saw a Second City troupe and a selection of teams at ImprovOlympic. Return visits were scheduled for Thursday. It's likely some players will be called to New York to try out for acting and writing jobs.
 
"SNL" is due for an overhaul this fall after a particularly lackluster season.
 
The future of co-head writer and "Weekend Update" co-anchor Tina Fey is in question as she turns to two other demanding projects: her first child, due in September, and an NBC sitcom she's proposing to write and star in. If she brings some late-night pals to the project, "SNL" will have holes to fill.
 
And it may be time to move on for several veteran cast members, among them Chris Parnell and Horatio Sanz (seven seasons each) and Darrell Hammond (who just completed his 10th season, an all-time show record).
 
For his part, Michaels told GLARE he expects to make changes during the summer hiatus, but "no more than usual."
 
What makes this town such a great source of talent for "SNL"? He pondered a bit before deciding he couldn't do the question justice: "It's too long an answer."

                                                      my name this time. Darrell's "Dominio's" skit this saturday has to be the
                                                      funniest skit this year on SNL. Oh, and congrats to Darrell for 10 years as a

                                                      we were watching President Bill Clinton saying "I feel your pain." The last ten
                                                      years have been amazing.

My Bio & Why I am running this site.
 
In 1984-1986, I live next to, and hung out with, and worked together with Darrell at BJ105 (WBJW now MIX105.5 in Orlando.  That is when I became one of his "oldest fans" and cheerleaders. 
 
This site is not owned, operated, or endorsed by Darrell.  Just a friend helping a friend.
 
By the way D, are you still using those pots and pans I gave you?
