I've always thought Tim Meadows was funny.
It appears he's now reading random commercial spots for WSCR. He must be hurting for cash.

No, that's Tim Reid. He was part of a black/white team with Tom Dreesen years before North and Jiggs invented it.

I think I saw Tim Meadows in a commercial for the new Sandler movie. He is from SNL. He was on SNL longer than anybody or close to it. I liked him.


Tim Reid became popular when he played a DJ on WKRP in Cincinatti.

His reads for Campbell soup make me think he'd be great at AT&T knock knock jokes.

Tim Meadows has always sounded/appeared forced and unsure of himself.

He's about as funny as Joe Bartosch.

Is that really Tim Meadows? I don't like the new voice over guy either. And why did they let go of Ernie Scanton?

Tim Meadows wasn't really funny in and of himself, but I'd argue that wasn't his job. He was a classic glue guy; sketch comedy needs that.

Yes, but even performing in that context a sense of timing and fitting into the flow are key. Meadows always seemed to lack both of those qualities.

one the scale of "the one black SNL cast member", he probably rates right in the middle. The top is obvious:

1. Eddie Murphy
2. Garrett Morris

I'd put Meadows in the next group probably about the same as Tracy Morgan. That guy Pharroh is moving up the ranks but he breaks the mold a little bit because he is also the impressions guy.

i always felt bad for him, he seemed like he was in the "...and featuring" section of SNL for an eternity......pretty much everyone else from that era had moved on to bigger and better things and he was still "...and featuring!!"

Seems like the other guy Rusty? got too big for WSCR.
Tim does an awesome SW Airlines spot. It's somewhere between effeminate and creepy.

That's not Tim Meadows doing the radio ads.

Prune.

Tim Meadows part in Walk Hard is one of the funniest running gags in any movie ever. And for that he will always be alright with me. YOU DON'T WANT NONE OF THIS DEWEY.....GET OUT OF HERE!!!

Hope so. (not) Meadows apparently can't say the word "bold" (pronounces it "boad"), or other words with an "L" sound before an ending consonant. Kinda has a little Brokaw in 'im (hey HEY!!!).
