Taking nothing away from the lanky Mr. Styles, but McShane's "insta-songs" were often inspired. Plus you have the Farley-funny-factor at work, wherein a comedian's work is made more hilarious in direct proportion to the increasing tension you feel watching him, that he might just die of heart implosion while performing.
I even watched that Joey Laurence and his Boys-from-Brazil-Brothers-mechanic show, just cause I like McShane so much.
Pity that he's now so poorly used on the dreadful Drew Carey Show. He's a damn funny guy and deserves better than playing a bland Kramer rip.
