How the hell did the character get so viral? I’ve tried watching the skits several times to see if maybe I’m missing something, but for the life of me, I can’t seem to see it. Is everyone just biased because it’s Tom Hanks? Or is it actually hilarious, and I’m just struggling to understand the humor? Fall/Spooky season is my absolute favorite time of year, but am I just a buzz kill?

    It’s a kinda funny joke. But the problem with American comedy in general is that they just can’t let something go. They milk that joke until there’s nothing left.

      It really varies on the comic. Some drag shit out some don’t. I can’t stand most of Jim Gaffigan’s stuff because he does that shit ad nauseum.
