I don’t know how many people in the SG community has had to deal with rappers on a professional level. But I used to work on hip-hop television show and I can’t remember any time where the rap artists showed up on time and the movie junket for The Cookout was no different. The funny thing is that the only person who showed up on time wasn’t a rapper but in fact was comedian/actor Tim Meadows.

Meadows has a small role in the film as a wannabe lawyer giving out “legal advice” at a family cookout.

wow tim isnt what I expected. He seems down to earth and likable. SNL annoyed the hell outta me after awhile. But he's been funny in other things. I probably wont see the cookout or soul plane because i share his views on the state of some Black cinema frown

I just watched Mean Girls this week, and I was pleasantly surprised.

Tim Meadows never disappoints me, and it's a shame he doesn't get more work. He's consistantly funny.

Thanks for the interview.

No matter how funny he is, I can't get past the fact that he's one of the celebrity guests on Balderdash game show. I mean, locally it's on PAX. That's not even CLOSE to a real network. . . He's way better than Whoopi, and she at least got center square.

i have to say the 2 Tim Meadows things that stick in my head are.

when he did the skit with jim carey as the life guard of a hot tub. Tim Meadows does laps in the hot tub... so funny to watch.

the skit where he was dr. poop who wasn't a real doctor but could do the robot.... the whole cast lost it then.

ladies man is the shit... YA HEARD!!!!

No, I know a group of four guys who think it's the funniest movie ever. They watch it all the time.

I always wanted big things to happen for Tim; so far, it doesn't look like things are going that way. But who knows; it's not like there's a time limit to that sorta thing.

i wasnt a big fan of Tim's until the last three years or so of his tenure on SNL. i really think he came into his own with the Ladies' Man and once he was a respected cast member. What happened to his popularity is fairly typical when one has a bomb movie like The Ladies Man. i think that movie is hysterical but who knows maybe the success of Mean Girls will rub off on him

Well I think Tim's problem was that he bombed in two mediums at the same time. The Ladies Man flopped at the same time the incredibly unfunny Micheal Richards show rightfully bombed. I mean I feel so bad for Tim getting wrapped up in that Michael Richards mess, I mean it must have seemed sure fire at the time, "Everyone loves Kramer." Also, it's just hard to imagine a show as bad as the Micheal Richards show. So anyway, i think that's what really hurt Tim.
