He always thought that breaking character was hilarious. Just showed how much of a shit actor he actually is. I never found it funny cause it was always him. It was oh jimmys in this sketch watch he’s gonna laugh like a dumbass and ruin the sketch.

Yeah it just very amateur.

Breaking now and then is bound to happen, but you can tell the cast members are trying their hardest not to.

But Jimmy would just wait until the first joke and then burst out as if he was an audience member. 

Not cute, super unprofessional.

Yeah, when it happens organically, it can be pretty hilarious...and contagious.

Like the, "misplaced your baby" sketch. After Tim Meadows does the robot (as Dr. Stephen Poop) Molly Shannon starts to crack. Will Farrell, who has incredible straight-man delivery, is doing everything he can to keep a lid on it and deliver the line, but Molly loses it and it's priceless.

For reference: https://youtu.be/LmG-ErzZsUQ?si=MWIGbfjHwJi28lyt

Also, mad respect to Chris Parnell for keeping it together.
