Guest:
- Powered by a chameleonic charisma and aggressive energy that belied his small frame, Chris Kattan created many popular impressions and characters, including the exotic dancer Mango, the monkey man Mr. Peepers, the wannabe Goth teen Azrael Abyss and most memorably with Will Ferrell, as a pair of nightclub-hopping, head-bopping brothers. So popular was the latter skits that Kattan and Ferrell wrote and starred in the movie version, “A Night at the Roxbury.” Read more about Kattan here.
