Lorne Michaels should bash in Tim Dillon’s door for SNL

Now as a preface I realize that SNL is now a shell of itself and a cathedral of the woke. But a 1990s Lorne would be slobbering over Tim Dillon being a member of the cast.
Right now all the show has is Kate McKinnon. Once she’s gone, no sane person will tune into the show unless one hell of a stand up comedian hosts it. Seriously only Kate and Kenan would qualify as Top 100 members of the historic SNL cast. They’re all fricking pathetic.
Tim Dillon would probably be a Top 10 if not Top 5 member of SNL of all time. If Norm MacDonald and Artie Lange had a baby and it turned out to be slightly gay, that would be Tim Dillon. I really think he’s a comic genius and would make that show incredible. Granted everyone on the current cast would loathe him entirely since he’s actually funny and willing to be offensive.
His celebrity impersonations are much like Norm where he doesn’t even bother to change anything about himself and just mocks the concept of being a celebrity. And he’d have to get Weekend Update as well and be the true heir to Norm.
Granted his star is on the rise and wouldn’t do it (nor would I tell him to do such and just laugh with him if he were in the 90s this would be his path to stardom), but I think Tim Dillon would be the only chance that show had of succeeding from this day forward since once Kate leaves they’re basically finished.
Some of his gold:
Tim Dillon as Megan McCain
Tim Dillon Sketch Compilation
Tim Dillon Thanksgiving
Tim Dillon on drugs

Tim Dillon is one of the few guys who will make you laugh aloud on the fly.
Hes better than any me on snl in the last 5+ years

Yeah, my point is if Lorne gave Tim Dillon complete creative freedom, gave him Update, and told the other members to shut the frick up and let him do the talking, that could be a Renaissance Eddie Murphy levels. The problem is Tim Dillon is like Norm where he actively tries to destroy his own career by shitting all over anyone with authority. It’s what makes him great though too.

“Stop the nature weed shite and embrace the Sackler family.”
95% of the people will not get that joke, but it’s the funniest god damn thing I’ve heard in like 5 years. That’s why he needs to be Update to just shite every week on the Sackler family for what they’ve done to this country.

No idea who he is, but based on what you posted, he's too funny for SNL.

Absolutely. It’s just funny looking back that would have been his ticket and now SNL is a death sentence.

I can’t stand Kate but she’s talented at least. Kenan is one of the worst members of all time. And it’s not close.

He at least did Black Jeopardy which keeps him from the Bottom 100. He’s in the 90s, which is why I said Kate is the only great member of the cast.

He’s awful on Black Jeopardy too. He sucks in every skit he’s in. And he plays his same stupid Kenan bullshite character with the same stupid smirk and grinning through his lines. In every single sketch. He’s awful and I honestly have no idea how people like him. My assumption is that they remember him fondly from the Nickelodeon days. And it baffles me that he’s the longest tenured member too.

comedians like Tim Dillon and Nick Mullen are too funny for mainstream horseshite like SNL. Their comedy is counterculture because it is the complete opposite of watered down mainstream & woke comedy.

No producer of any show has ever done that with any comedian. Not sure why you’d think that Lorne Michaels would suddenly want to gamble his show away.

I laugh uncontrollably from his appearances on Rogan’s podcast
Posted on 11/29/20 at 2:07 am to lsuwontonwrap
SNL immediately fired Shane Gillis over some bs offensive stuff.
I don't know if they would hire this guy or if he has anything they would find offensive. It's just sad what SNL/NBC has become.

We get it. You listen to Rogans pod and just found Tim Dillon. Relax kid.
Posted on 11/29/20 at 7:13 am to OMLandshark
He had Tim Robinson and let him go I don't trust Lornes judgment anymore

For all of SNL’s problems, this is an epically bad take. Kenan has been the best thing in so many crap sketches I’ve lost count. Kate McKinnon, however, is wildly overrated.

Kenan is awful. Is he capable of changing his voice? Or his demeanor?
I love Tim Dillon but he’s not a fit for SNL
