Title: Not Enough Meat
Product review: The first time I noticed Jay Mohr was in Jerry McGwire. He played a back-stabbing agent who double crosses the hero in the movie. I thought he played that rather well. Based on his book, it's because he is that guy.I didn't find Jay Mohr to be a "warm fella". His writing is matter-of-fact and well...cool. There is no emotion to his writing nor does he remember anyone fondly with the exception of Farley, but only highlights his "manic" stages.On one hand, I can't blame the guy. He was at a rough period (a decade or so) where the show had lost its steam. Mohr was coming in the SNL train as young guys like him: Sandler, Farley and Spade were getting noticed with the best sketches and that must have been tough.But he wussed out. He was in the same school as newcomers Molly Shannon, Norm Macdonald (who Jay discloses too much detail on his bout with food poisoning), Rob Scheidner (who Jay hates), and didn't graduate from the SNL Academy with honors.His revenge: this book.
