Norm MacDonald as Burt Reynolds was actually intended to be the recurring character in the SNL Celebrity Jeopardy skits. However, when Norm got fired, Sean Connery became the recurring character.Teflon Billy said:the one with Burt Reynolds is a scream.
I know Norm McDonald was always considered one of the SNL "never-was"'s, but I thought this impresion was spot-on.

Heh, for the last few years, Turd Ferguson has been the nickname I gave my little brother after seeing that sketch. I've used it for so long and so often that even our parents now refer to him as "Turd."mojo1701 said:You mean Turd Ferguson.

So, why do they portray Sean as being so dumb, anyway? Did he do something in RL that showed him as being stupid?
Not that I think most Hollywood actors are smart by any stretch. Certainly some are, but by and large I think most of them are probably very ignorant about a great many things.
