Not impressed

Five reasons we don't like impressionists:

1.  They all do the same impressions.  Jack Nicholson, Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, Clint Eastwood.  If you don't believe it, search "impressionist" on YouTube.

2.  They do impressions of other people's impressions. Once Kevin Spacey did Christopher Walken on SNL, all impressionists began doing it -- not Walken, but Spacey doing Walken.  A copy of a copy of a copy ...

3. They have no personalities or talents of their own.  That's why they have to borrow other people's.

4. They think they have personalities and talents of their own.  They'll often conclude a set with a "serious" song -- performed in their own voice -- about the pain of hiding behind a comic mask.

5.  They are unemployable.  Except in Vegas.
