Hey there, did anyone see that 'Saturday Night Live' sketch on Saturdays, when they rerun old ones, that features 'Child Stars- America's Most Wanted'? They had the people dres up as child stars that got in trouble with the law, a la Gary Coleman, Danny Bonaduche, etc.?
They had Mindy Cohn there (which made no sense cause she never broke the law) played by...Chris Farley! Now, come on, that was just plain mean! Thy were making fun of her in the worst way possible, which isn't right.

I always thought she was so beautiful in every way, it didn't seem right to me to have her be made fun of like that.

I know that Rerun Show was supposed to be in good fun and all that, but they kind of went too far during some of the eps.

What else would you expect from Saturday Night Live? They make fun of everybody.

I thought the Re-Run Show was hilrious!!(sp?) But people do make fun of other people, besides-it is SNL.

"The Rerun Show", "Saturday Night Live" and "MadTV" are all shows that tease variety of things. They aren't trying to harm anyone. It's just another/their way to make audiences and viewers laugh and basically some people may think it's funnier than others.

i know that was so mean just because she was a child star doesen't mean she not as good as other actors and actresses.
