Any other Sam Seder fans?
Edited on Sat Apr-17-04 01:09 PM by WillyBrandt
Doesn't get too much attention, but I think he does a fantastic job on Majority Report. I like both he and JG a lot, but Seder has impressed me with his brains and his passion

1. Love him!
Wish Janean would bawl him out during commercials when she has a problem with him instead of on the air.

2. I like him, but he needs work on keeping his voice pitch low
When Sam gets excited, the pitch of his voice gets close to soprano. When he gets going, it sounds like someone ranting on helium.

I'm sure it something he'll get better on over time.

3. I actually really like the ranting!
I hear you on the helium, though!

5. Needs improvement. He bellows AND stammers at the same time.
I've only heard those two a couple of times so far and his tone of voice is irritating.

What makes it worse is how often he starts and re-starts sentances at full volume before he actually gets something out. Not articulate.

Garafalo, on the other hand, is super fast, funny, and articulate.

Her correcting banter makes Seder bearable and smacks of honesty.

They actually did a bit about both of them (I think critics meant Seder) trying to quit saying 'um'. And this was before Shrub's awful 'ummy' press conference.

Seder is self-deprecating to his credit. He joked that his name is pronounced "Janeane's co-host."
