I have her 'Best Of SNL' dvd and no matter how many times I see it she never gets old. Cracks me up everytime I watch it. I have alot of the 'Best Of SNL' dvd's of other ex-members but they don't keep me laughing like she does.
I own them too! I still love Cheri O'teri. I think she was a creative genius.
Jimmy Fallon and Molly Shannon are my other favs. Of course, Gilda Radner is #1 for me!! Always will be. God, I miss her!!
All good. Molly is good, but all her characters are the same thing. Watch them. Every single one of them practically is the same type whether Mary Katherine Gallagher to Sally O'Malley.
She does a spot-on Courtney Love- 'These are the top ten bruises on my body.'
Yes, that's for sure!She does a spot-on Courtney Love- 'These are the top ten bruises on my body.'
I finished Mr Mercedes last week. Now I'm reading Rose Madder, The Outsider, Eyes of the Dragon and Salem's Lot for the 2nd time.
I wish I'd known about this forum 10 years ago when I was reading the Dark Tower Books.

I'm collecting Stephen King books like some people collect coins.
I remember those heady days when I didn't have every King book in my collection and how much fun I had searching for those books I needed. This was before the internet so it was quite an undertaking to get those rare titles.
I read a couple of Linwood Barclay (Never Look Away and No Time for Goodbye) and Michael Koryte (The Prophet) over the long break. Then I wanted something less dark, so I'm working on Jana DeLeon's Miss Fortune series.
The rest of this month im reading Star Wars Shadows of the Empire, Return of the Jedi, Wheel of Time Great Hunt and Uncle John Bathroom Reader 2017 edition
Let us know what you think!
....while I wait for my copies(US & UK)of The Institute to arrive.....
About 2/3 of the way through Deliverance by James Dickey. I never read this book before and have only seen bits and pieces of the movie. After this I'll dive into The Institute!!!
WHile all of you are reading The Institute (which I purchased today), I will be reading The Testaments by Margaret Atwood which I also purchased today.
feed my brain, feed my brain, feed my brain! So many books to feed my brain!

Although I'm not a big fan of Young Adult books, I find many of them awfully struggling to handle sensitive topics and relate to the audience at the same time, many of them trying to be too relatable or overly edgy and they just are set up to age badly, regardless, judging a book merely by it's age recommendation is pretty stupid. The worst of them are the horror novels, I've seen some very laughable concepts at book fairs (Haven't read them though, maybe they're actually good), I remember one that was basically "What if tweeting killed people
", you can make a book relevant to todays problems or society and relate to todays audience without setting them up to age that badly.
Started I am Legend by Richard Matheson, am really enjoying it so far and am determined to finish it. Unfortunately the mysterious Alex O. who owned my copy before me annotated the hell out of it, hard to read with lots of pen underlining and brackets around paragraphs along with text scribbled in the margins.
