Damn. I guess they were a long time ago (and way before I saw Brooklyn Nine Nine to really be into him as a character), but I definitely couldn't have told you "dick in a box" or "I'm on a boat" were him.

That’s funny, those are the first things I think of when I hear his name

They've discovered a lot of great cast members, and there are definitely some great clips, but I'm generally not a big fan of skit comedy, so I don't really do SNL. I like longer formats with character development over time. B-99 is where I really noticed him.
