In early 1989, Darrell was hired in Orlando, Florida to be the audience warm up comedian for MTV`s Game Show, "Remote Control" (who was shooting a season in Florida). Darrell was fired quickly because he wasn`t getting the crowd excited ("warmed up") with his style of humor. He later went on to work with Colin Quinn (one of the game show hosts) on Saturday Night Live.
Impersonations include Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Dick Cheney, Jesse Jackson, Chris Matthews, Regis Philbin, Sean Connery, John Travolta, Ted Koppel, Phil Donahue, Jack Nicholson, Donald Trump, and Richard Dreyfuss on "Saturday Night Live" (1975).
