Fred Armisen on Portlandia and the Dream of the 90s

Of all the current Saturday Night Live cast members, Fred Armisen seems like the least likely to spin-off one of his Studio 8H characters for the box office. Not necessarily because he hasn’t been given the opportunity — after Will Forte’s disastrous MacGruber though, who could blame movie studios for not trying? — but because Armisen, who Lorne Michaels described as “an artist, not a careerist,” seems genuinely content to be part of Saturday Night Live ‘s ensemble cast.

Not The Event though! Sure, there are times when, say, you could predict Thomas choking when he pulls a gun on his mother, but that’s less a character-based level of predictability, and more a we-can’t-kill-Laura Innes’-character level of predictability. The former leaves you nicely pleased with your own cleverness; the latter leaves you in a bloodied heap on your couch.
