TERRY
GANTNER
There
was only one appearance by the
Gantner family and their workout
show, but it was as memorable to
Ferrell fans as any other
character he's played.
Will
played Terry Gantner, the father
of the peppy family. Chris Kattan
played his son and Molly Shannon,
his wife.
Their
workouts were supposed to be
designed around the serenity and
strength of the martial arts. It
was very strange to see these,
shall we say, very Caucasian
people promoting the skills
culled from the Far East. They
were ultra-positive and perky to
the point of nausea.
The
funniest part of the sketch was
when Kattan got a board and Will
set up to break it with one
punch. Everyone acted like he did
it many times before (even
through the plastic and wary look
in Chris' eyes.)
Will hit the board and
immediately crumpled. The perky
and positive Terry was
immediately transformed into a
crazed and cursing hotbed of
temper.
"Aaaagh! Dammit! That hurts! What
kind of wood was that!?! What the
hell's wrong with
you?!"
