I happen to like Chevy Chase!

I don't know...... :evilgrin:

1. He's made a few funny films.

Caddyshack and Fletch spring to mind. Unfortunately, he's made a lot of shitty films... on top of that, he's (apparently) a conceited asshole.

Other than that... yeah, he's great.

2. I prefer Silver Spring...

...or Takoma Park myself.

3. I was reading an article once

where a Saturday Night Live alum who is gay (I forgot his name) said that Chevy Chase came into one of there meetings when they were thinking of skits. Chevy suggested they have a character with AIDS and every week they would weigh him. That was one of the most insensitive things I've ever heard and I haven't liked him since.

4. That was Terry Sweeney.

Here it is as it appears in the book "Live From New York":

TERRY SWEENEY:
... We were just excited to work with him (Chevy). And when he got there, he was a monster. I mean, he insulted everybody. (...) Chevy turned to me and he said, "Oh, you're the gay guy, right?" And he goes, "I've got an idea for a sketch for you. How about we say you have AIDS and we weigh you every week?" (...)

JON LOVITZ:
When Chevy Chase was hosting, there was a meeting of the writers and staff. So Chevy looks at Terry Sweeney and goes, "You're gay, right?" Terry goes, "Yes, what would you like me to do for you?" Chevy goes, "Well, you can start by licking my balls."


Comic genius. :puke:

7. Lovely man.

How funny of him. Not. :eyes:

5. Chevy is like a Pinto

compared to a Cadillac when comparing humorists/actors with Bill Murray.

It's like the difference between watching Fiddler on the Roof and The Bachelor.

No offense intended! :)

8. So YOU'RE the one!

I knew somebody must like him, but I'd never heard anyone admit to it.

9. I like Chevy Chase, too.

But then I vaguely knew Bill Murray as a kid.

10. Me too.

His role in Caddy Shack is one of my all time favorite performances of anyone.
