Alec Baldwin is ready to resign from the Oval Office — or at least the Oval Office set on the Saturday Night Live sound stage.
The last few seasons of SNL have largely built their Donald Trump-centric sketches on the actor’s ability to maintain an exaggerated duck face while sporadically flexing his fingers and speaking like a mid-tantrum toddler, but Baldwin is saying he wants out of the POTUS-playing game.
Baldwin spoke to USA Today about his Trump impersonation fatigue, saying, “I had a lot of fun with [the cast], and when Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider wrote [Trump sketches in 2016 and 2017], that was new, it was fresh and the ratings were good. But I feel like I’m done with that now. I’m so done with it.”
All I ever saw him do was a shitstorm of poor acting in a suit. He can imagine it any way he wants but I see it differently.
He and SNL should have stayed out of politics, I won’t be watching him or them ever again. Let the left have them.
SNL ceased to be funny or entertaining long ago.
I can’t remember when I saw it last.
I’ll never watch the liberal, social justice, socialists again.
It became CNN without a punch line. Fake comedy.
Disney finally laid down the law, or the ghost of the great Gene Rayburn has been haunting him.
Your acting is just like you stated, old, tired. no reason to see it at all. Pull the plunger handle and get it over with.
Thanks,
I saw devo on snl last night. You tube has the clip from 1978.
That’s all I remember about SNL. They used to occasionally have cutting edge bands.
Then, Don Kirschners rock concert came on the tube after SNL and I always thought Don Kirschner and Paul Schaffer were the same guy.
He keeps saying that. This is the 3rd time he ‘quit’.
I don’t mind him as much as the late-night host ‘comedians’ but they are pretty much suck
Get Stephen Colbert to do it. He does the best tr##p (I don’t even want to write his name) imitation. Because it’s so true.
Typical patriarchy at work Larry, you should have gone with Wanda Sykes.
Are you saying Wanda Sykes COULDN’T play the President? Because she’s black? Or is it because she’s a woman?
I mean, why would you automatically assume a white male should play Trump?
I’m throwing up in my mouth, Larry. You’ve let the Left down.
God….. I may need to schedule another therapy session for this afternoon.
Because he has so many other gigs?
I watched The Hunt for Red October a few nights ago. Why has Alec Baldwin’s head literally gotten so big over the last 30 years? Maybe a tumor?
Actors, like CEO’s, should avoid making political statements. It’s a good way to lose half your audience, or market. It’s really a dumb-ass move.
Same question as Tony R, what the hell else does he have other than abusing family, friends (does he have any?) or starting low level assaults on strangers?
Baldwin looks more like Rosie O’Donnell. Play Rosie. Leave the playing-with up to Biden.
Alec baldwin is into pizza.
Bet. Bet money. Bet MY money.
All the super deranged anti trump hollyweirdos are.
Why they’re so scared. Trump is ripping apart the pedo networks.
And yet the news doesn’t talk about it…
Isn’t he one of those F-list actors, that’s been hiding in Canadia since January 2017? 🙄
He left out the leftist actor tantrumism of threatening to leave the country. I guess that’s understood as threadbare and tiring as well.
Best reason yet, this year, to celebrate.
When I was kid there was a Baldwin family,
Hurky, Weasel and Pencil-Dick.
Then they moved to Boston.
Neighborhood had a block party that night,,,
So, another afternoon at the shooting range? .308? 5.56? .45? It’s either .308 or 10 mm, for me.
I enjoyed Beetlejuice… but probably because I usually enjoy Burton, and Keaton, and Davis. Baldwin’s part could have been played by anybody.
That’s the only movie I remember Baldwin in except some gay masher movie he did with Tom Cruise.
.357
But then I switched to my daughters pink .22
