Frank Caliendo

[MrTheHyperactive]

He is a genius !

[shastasheen926]

Ted Knight at 1:34 (Judge Smails from Caddyshack, Mary Tyler Moore Show). Its usually a bit better, as in perfect, but its still good. He's great.

[maxxxx1972]

who' s at 1:34?

[MohoBiechiz]

ha one of the dudes on the desk tried to be funnah

[1992corleonesicilia]

That guy was rude. He's jealous of Frank's talent. I mean, c'mon ... "Frank, I apologize that we're treating you as a human juke-box and put quarters in your behind", "Thanks, Frenk, we're out of quarters." ... Fuck you, you piece of shit. What can you do? Go ahead, do an impression. Just not an impression of a jealous, not-funny-at-all, dumb loser, you've already done that one and it's pretty damn good.

[ehcmier]

@1992corleonesicilia Naw. The rudeness is all you. No one's jealous. The guy was a bit inappropriate, but he didn't mean anything negative toward Frank. The fact is, they were sincerely delighted and apologetic. You've got some crazy issues, though.

[jokeistman]

"sometimes things are just intertwined" lol - 2:28

[jnw319]

"i apologize were treating you like a human jukebox and putting quarters in your behind??? lol 2:20

[SolidShinoda]

Everytime he does Bush I crack up omfg. Insectifications LOLMFAO.

[enfinite5]

this guys impressions are PERFECT!@!

[Abyssery]

his deniro kinda sounded like peter griffin

[salemboy22]

"i apologize we're treating you like a human jukebox and putting quarters in your behind."

[gggu]

"My face is puff-ified" LOOOOOLLL

[caviper1]

Natural talent

[KrpZapheado]

This guy is awesome!

[mtlson]

Wow!

"Hey folks! John Madden here to help you with the bird and the bees and I just found out 30 seconds ago that it's not about insects and animals."

Damn that was funny!

[Easyflux]

indeed

[bhushan80]

I like his Bush stuff the most...followed by John Madden...and then come the rest in the line. With Bush I like the entries he makes...and pauses to think about the word that is pretty obvious to be next...he is so much fun. I must say that it takes a lot of heart to keep doing the impersonations with such a zeal while personally he must be tired of doing them....money is the motivation as some might say...

[r3n3gade420]

@bhushan80 yeah man his Bush is the fuckin greatest, it says everything about Bush too haha

[bhushan80]

@r3n3gade420 Bush himself is a stand up ...Frank just magnifies what Bush does in a subtle way. The Bush way of doing things is amazaficatin' in that he jokificates a lot and goodifies his speech...and takes his time till the lost words find their way to fall out of his mouth...and so forth.

[vfgjhj]

Everybody acts like the reporter is the jerk for saying sticking quarters in his behind. Him saying that makes himself sound gay, not like a wise ass.

[ramos11]

prettyy pretty...pretty good

[vfgjhj]

He wants to stick quarters in Frank's behind.

[whitfkl318nu]

That reporter is jealous he's not funny, and pissed that Caliendo's George W. is nailed Spot-on.

Were it me I'dve reciprocated with something like:

"Ok, so let us see your impression then of a quarter going up my ass, and I'll give you a 5-minute spot on my cashcal...How bout that?"

Or, "Quarters, huh? You know, I can't remember the last time I had quarters in my Wallet?"

Or, "Well, listen ya know, FOX is hiring I hear. So why don't ya go work over there & be bitter for some more change?"

[winstonian88]

He thought he meant Ted Knight.

[junaids23]

LOVE his gobble gobble at 2:24 ..LOL

[SuttonSantiniPaulo]

Luke, come to the dark side, I am your fatherrr. LOL

[gearsdan]

best Al Pacino impression EVER

[Timcookie321]

frank caliendo should get an award

[whitfkl318nu]

That reporter was a wise ass. He probably keeps his quarters up his own anus.

[jonrd21]

Sounds sexy!

[Metatronicus]

He is the best

[CassidyXoX13]

lmfao robert deniro!

[WoWCilias]

that jack nicholson was pretty spot on lol

[rightyourwrong]

is wgn9 only chicago based station?

[jrbkett]

It is based out of Chicago but is a "super station" that many people see via cable all around the country.

[edsstokes]

An Englishman. I admit though, this guy really is amazing. I don' t think I have ever seen a more convincing de Niro or George Bush and we have some fantastic impersonators here

[sodalosttoyzcru]

He was born in 1974, in chicago Illinois... He is not a brit or an englishman

[pea6]

An Englishman is a Brit.

[jamesrichardson63]

no, they r not. funny though that you said that.

[rocsyadaddy]

he grew up i wisconsin.

[edsstokes]

This guy is the best impressionist full stop. As a Brit, I just wish he'd do more voices I can appreciate. His De Niro is absolutely amazing though, great job!

[DaFckedUpKid]

what do you mean as a brit?

[Millst0ne]

He's a Teabag.

[cool908]

this guy is ridiculous!!!!

[Chimbo65]

?????? He is GREAT !!

[Norenlind]

HAHAHA XD

[Redstealth503]

The David Spade impersonation

[casteout]

hilarious!

[canuckman87]

WOW madden barkley and a lot others are SPOT ON. This guy is unreal.

[sssaxons]

Barkley.

[juniormaster4]

i agree. its weird, his impressions are a lot funnier in stand-up or when he guests on shows

[ShadyNJ]

yeah his show is nothing special but his stand up is hillarious

[jacko39]

Bill Walton lol.

[Starwind18020]

OMG, that woman sounds like Sarah Palin.

[eepruls]

She seems to drop the 'g' on every word just like Sarah Palin. She says, "tryin", "talkin", "workin", etc. You'd think a journalist would have better vocabulary!

[ochamocha]

ironically, i dont think vocabulary is the word you're looking for.

[nickgraz]

yeah it was...i think youre retarded or something

[nickgraz]

yeah youre right..i honestly dont know why i wrote that..im trying to figure that out..oh well..

[datnigdj]

the al pacino on this 1 is the best hands down. franks the best impressionist

[gibbster124]

yes ur completely rite, especially when he yells lol

[drummerkid1022]

The main thing with Frank is that his mannerisms and gestures are spot on.

Don't get me wrong his Bush and Madden is incredible but his hand gestures and such are what take the cake.

[JackieMagenta]

LOL WGN news brings Frank back for the most miniscule things. Lol about 98% of it is: "Oh do this impression!"

And then the other two is "Oh yeah, hes giving a speech. Outta time!" LOL I love Frank.

[lemmh2]

I've seen a few dozen decent impressionists in my time, but this guy has to be the best... by far! Some guys he does aren't so great, but the ones he nails are PERFECT! Best ever.

[Bryan200822]

He is really funny and a good sport !!!!!!!

[nicademas7779]

MY NAME DON...

[Louisdagod3]

Kim Jong Il is going to blow up the world. Trbl trbl crazy knuckleheaded trbl.

[cne08]

Frank's Charles Barkley impression is trbbl trbbl trbbl!

[nigger5599]

not it isn't you knucklehead

[bcptbcpt]

aww man that was crazy, you're trbl

[krnjonny123]

i simply love his bill walton one

[zhongsugars]

Of course he's a Chicago boy -- all the great ones are.

[miced]

that madden is dead on. best impression ever.

[TrueCaveat]

lol looooool lol lol lol lol lol

i like this. this is so funny.

[Cashville285]

this guy makes the world a better place

[BakanD]

Awesome

[Gothtube]

Ya frickin opinionated shitts y'all - shut da fk up and appreciate the guys talent !!

[Vaudette]

Does he ever do Nelson from the Simpsons? for all who don't know his name, he always says "Ha Ha"- please tell me

[sealsniper]

same voice who does Bart

[Vaudette]

For who down graded me, how is what i said mean? thank you sealsniper person...

[ninenmoebius]

i love him XD

[philblunt420]

most of the voices are dead on, the only one he looks close to is madden

[1soccerFREAK64]

he looks pretty close to jack nicholas and george DUBULYAH

[philblunt420]

if those two gained a couple hundred pounds each he would

[1soccerFREAK64]

well his face more so than his body...idk if you've ever seen the Frank TV promo but when he's dressed up as his characters those two are insane

[philblunt420]

hes got the voices and facial exspressions dead on but its hard to take those impressions seriously when they're not as fat as he is

[1soccerFREAK64]

hahahaha

[philblunt420]

I didnt mean it as a joke, I think hes got talent but if he stuck more to his hefty characters, madden, clinton, george costanza, they'd more suit his appearance, maybe he should try doing tony soprano or ted kennedy

[DiverseLA]

philblunt: he should try losing weight. then he can play more characters. it does look weird that he's like a heavyset bush.

[philblunt420]

Theres plenty of heavy set impressions he could do, his clinton is good, madden.

[shaqfn32]

Just because he doesn't dress up like them and look like an idiot like Rich Little doesn't mean it's not good.

[goonerdotcom]

god this guy is amazing

[thays35244]

yeah, like that is a real challenge...jeez

[DiverseLA]

lol i know. beavis & butthead is so monotone and easy.

[nuukiddondablock]

dude I've been able to do beavis and butthead since I was young...lol and thats not a talent trust me

[canuckledude19]

He needs to do some Harry Caray.

[amp710252853]

he needs to do more walton

[someguy936]

yea i no lol

[SeanGizzle]

HEAR, HEAR!

[Thomas2680]

We love him because he is a cheesehead like the rest of us!!

Terrible Tom--Green Bay

[avth76]

"I didn't think of it THAT way, but thanks" *LOL*

i never get tired of his bits...if they're good, they never get old.

[bonenerd]

he avoided saying madtv...

[marty34156]

his barkley is the best

[StewieGriffin613]

so is his john madden impression.

[dmacsdg]

his bush is so dam funny!bush is such a tard!

[latinoheatwhoa]

i fuckin hate bush but the impression is like dead on dude

[pkiskool]

Luke, come to the dark side, I am your father LOL

[whutbrush]

The long time fans are familiar with some of his material, but the new people aren't. He's always going, writing for his new show, and working on new voices. He's obviously a busy guy who doesn't always have time to come up with entirely new stuff. He does have improv skills, however, as seen when he has to hold character for 6-7 minutes on Letterman or radio programs. This guy has a huge future, and now that he's in the public eye, he's gonna come up with new stuff. Don't worry about him.

[yankeeking213]

funny but its the same old skit

[maddux826]

hes funny but he does need new stuff for each person

[StandupShowcase]

amazing impressions...needs to write new material though...it's always the same for each character

[funkybluerooster]

damn!

[NuLLx42]

NO :D

[Richiepookinshoo]

lol! Epic Fail on the part of Duke University.

[TRNCakaprodigy]

wow, he does charles barkey wow

[JP5466]

Best impressionist in the WORLD! Truly gifted.

[AFuneralPortrait]

He even does impressions!

[actor123456789]

He dose every impressions perfect!
