He might've had a comedy album based on some live standup performances somewhere in there...and that not even an authorized album. Something like the YouTube of audio. heh No, I think that’s about it. He might’ve had a comedy album based on some live standup performances somewhere in there…and that not even an authorized album.

His thing was cracking up in the middle of skits and breaking character because Will Ferrel was just That Funny. He gained some respect on Weekend Update opposite Tina Fey, though she was clearly driving the bus in front of the camera and behind the script. Then, like most students of SNL(except perhaps Tim Meadows), he "graduated" at an appropriate time to begin a film career and made some movie about Queen Latifah and a super Taxi cab that I still haven't seen yet but is probably on my Netflix Queue somewhere in the three hundreds. Then he was never seen from or heard from again for YEARS. A few weeks ago, I started noticing him resurfacing in NBC "chime" spots between shows, and now he's hosting Late Night. Did I miss anything? I’ve sort of maintained a peripheral awareness of Jimmy’s career and just need to check if I have it all straight:
