WOW did he have his 15 minutes quickly or what? All these impressionists
get very boring to me after a few minutes. In the hey day of the genre, Rich
Little, Frank Gorshin, John Byner, George Kirby etc etc.... seems like it
was enough to sound like George Burns, Gagney, and Kirk Douglas. Now you
really need an hours worth of good material.

One of the best comedians was rodney dangerfield and he was only good for
about 45-50 minutes and then you got tired of him.

A good comedian is almost always funny for an hour, but an
impressionist? How long can you be amused watching a guy pretend to be Burt
Lancaster?

It really depends on the quality of the writing. Caliendos
show works for the whole 90 minutes or so because the writing is very
good.
