1. More Cowbell, less "The Continental"
Maybe I just don't get it, but those "The Continental" skits are painful and drag on FOREVER...

6. Nope, you don't get it!
:P

Sorry, but it's hilarious. He's so incredibly smarmy, and the camera technique kills me.

5. Expect Colonel Angus,
A continental sketch, hopefully the Trivial Psychic, Cowbell, Centaur Interview, and Census Taker (a personal fave of mine.)

Among others...

8. I want to see
Jay Mohr as Walken doing the "Skittles ad" . One of my favorite bits. Everytime we see a Walken movie, we yell, "It's Skittles!!!" (not THEEE Skittles of course). :D

23. Funniest. Man. Ever
Comedy Central did a roast of some guy last year (it was the first time they roasted someone instead of just televising a Friar's Club Roast), and Walken did about the funniest video clip I've ever seen.

He's the kind of guy that's just great even when he's not trying to be.

24. It was the Denis Leary Roast...
...with Walken cooing into the camera and calling Leary "my little mush puff."

Walken once said that he would someday like to do a cooking show, and his assistant would be a beautiful woman with long, red fingernails, and she would use a long, sharp knife to cut vegetables, but she would also keep chopping off her fingernails.

That one came from Jay Mohr, who told the story in one of his Comedy Central specials.

The difference between Emeril and Walken? When Walken yelled "BAM," I'd get out of the friggin' room...

:evilgrin:
