Chris Parnell Takes Another Hit — This One From EW

Ex-Memphian Chris Parnell, who was bounced from the cast of SNL last fall, gets dissed in the current Entertainment Weekly. …

This one is Chris Parnell, late of SNL, who can’t get no respect and is becoming something of a proverb for that shortcoming.

Ex-Memphian Parnell, who was bounced from the cast of SNL last fall, gets dissed in the current Entertainment Weekly., which tells us in its “Hit List” column that NBC is eying Jimmy Fallon for Conan O’Brien’s “Late Night” chair and then goes on to say: “If Fallon does well as Conan’s chair, he may one day get his own, made out of Chris Parnell.”
