It's always a good time when comedian Frank Caliendo comes on Windy City Live. He did 15 impressions in 10 minutes and employed Chicago Blackhawks legend Jeremy Roenick as a pizza deliveryman!

I was lucky enough to meet him back in 2006. First celebrity I ever met. He's not only talented but a super nice guy as well.
frank has that rare combination of being a great impressionist and a great comedian.
This guys can literally carry on a conversation with himself.

If Jim Carrey and Robin Williams had a kid!
Saw Frank at Zanies in Nashville maybe 20 years ago just before he blew-up. He has that special manic streak ability to riff endlessly on the fly that Robin Willisms had. He clearly puts a lot of time and effort into impressions and delves deeply into the nuances of each voice. Major props.
Non-stop rapid fire delivery. Amazing how he can transition into various persona's without missing a beat. It has to be the vocal chords. If Rich Little is the King of Impression then Frank Caliendo is the "Crown Prince".
Has Frank become possessed by Robin Williams? He never misses a beat. Lol Frank has got to be ranked in THE top 3 impersonators that ever lived! I LOVE FRANK! Especially his John Madden. Hahaha
This guy is gifted. love him!
That was a frenetic performance. Love Caliendo... a real talent. He does a great William Shatner.
His wife must INSIST he stays on the road. It would be too insane to have him around the house for an extended stretch...

Normally Frank isn't this confident. It's a nice change of pace.
He did a pretty good RDJ😂
Jeremy Roenick was a legend when he was in Philadelphia. Not only was he a great teammate, he did tons of charity work and private work with kids.
Caliendo reminds one of Robin Williams. As talented as he is it can be a bit much when he is so frenetic.

You can't try to focus just open up your brain to be like fishing nets and don't narrow, expand. It helps if you close your eyes for a bit and let it wash over you. Frank is the best. I wonder if he and Robin were ever on the same show. Then to add an extra drop of crazy, throw Jim Carey into that pot.

Frank and me used to hang out at a local pub and hustle pool and drink cold beer, a real stand up guy
Holy cocaine Batman! Lol
What makes people like Frank great isn't their talent for impressions - a lot of people can do that. It's how fast his synapses fire and how he sees the world around him along with his ability to communicate it to the audience. That's not as common.
He needs to be in more movies most underrated comedian.
He had his show , I just don’t understand why people didn’t like it he’s one of the bestttt

Frank is right about the retired professional athletes. Many of them were in a sense put on a pedestal... and they began to believe the hype. So bruising their inflated ego isn't impossible when a great entertainer or comedian pulls off a good one now and then.
Goat!! Love Frank!
His Morgan Freeman is spot on,,
Aaw ive tried for years to nail a Morgan Freeman impression...and this guy just jumps in and out of it.😂❤
Just saw his podcast with Dennis Miller earlier today! Great podcast!!! Love Frank, didn’t know he was a Chicago boy, hey ME TOO!!!!!
Frank is one of a kind!
This guy is pure talent
Can you imagine at all times people wanting you to do impressions?! He's probably only himself when with family
I love this
I have no idea why the Raiders paid John Gruden a $100 million to coach the Raiders when the could have got Caliendo for $10 million, and he would have been a better Gruden than Gruden.

He is so good at impressions
Wow...dude is amazing
90 seconds in and he hasnt done a single damn impression yet but still stole the show XD
Frank does so many amazing impressions, but I laughed the hardest at "I'll be done when I'm done!"

Awesome
Robert Downey Jr. impression is good.
Dang, he really killed this. Glad the hosts let him do his thing
This guy is a super genius!
A modern-day Rich Little!
I have to put on my DEPENDS when he does George Bush. I cannot hold it in.
9:30 I like how he sounded like John Madden when he choked on the Sausage lol. I like how he went from John Madden Choking to Robert Downey Jr saying "is this Good?".
When you have a guest on your show and don’t have to say anything because he literally doesn’t stop talking
I want some of that pizza!
7:01 The de Niro tongue.
Maybe just me, but I thought the way she was laughing at him and touching his arm she was going to ask if he ever divorced his wife if he'd date a TV anchor and he shut it down in the best way possible lol I felt like she was I to him

He's the best!!!! But you gotta go to Lou Malnati's!!!!!!🍕🍕🍕
Good grief the studio audience is pathetic! Caliendo delivered more elite comedy in a few minutes than most other comics can produce in a full hour special. Yet, this comatose crowd either couldn't keep up or just didn't "get it." The guy is a master, and he put on an absolute comedy clinic. This crowd did't deserve such a performance.

FRANK,! You’re no bigger than one of my massive farts!!!!!! Lol!
I'd like to see him do Jim Gaffigan.
His energy reminds me of Robin williams. Go watch Robin Williams interviews, very much so the same. Not many people in history give off that maniac behavior, Robin was the GOAT at that and weaving a story with his quips.
3/4 he looks exactly like Russell Crowe. He needs a Russell Crowe.

He and Godfrey need to get together(possibly with the best other impersonators going) and do a clean variety slow; that would be special!
I would definitely need adderall in order to speak that fast and that consistent. Omg.
