Will Ferrell: You're Welcome America - A Final Night with George W. Bush

Ferrell's Bush imitation loses a lot in being projected to a large audience, and the script is ghastly. There's no wit, no political satire.

Ferrell is talented enough to produce several amusing moments, but lacking a communal audience environment, it was only a so-so TV experience.

It offered me something I could not find anywhere else in popular culture -- closure to the eight-year presidency of George W Bush.

Ferrell does a fine job spinning the presidency on its heels and he provides a generous dose of laughs (the bit where he gives the audience nicknames is a hoot and the product of improv genius).
