Having seen some bad collections from SNL, I wasn't sure if this would be worth the investment, but after having viewed it, I can definitely recommend it! If you are a fan of SNL or of Jimmy Fallon, you will enjoy this collection. My wife and I have always enjoyed his SNL work, but we were surprised by the wide range of characters he created as well as how consistently good he was. The impersonations especially were amazingly good, though he is not well-known for his impersonation skills. There are also lots of laughs here in one of SNL's better collections. Also, if you're looking for those Celebrity Jeopardy skits that weren't featured on Will Farrell's DVD's, you will find one full skit here as well as a few clips from others.
