* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Goodman actually auditioned to be a ''Saturday Night Live'' cast member when the show was looking for new cast members during its sixth season. Because he was inexperienced with TV acting at the time, he wasn't picked, which is just as well, given how terrible the season was. Though the many times he's hosted and cameoed on ''SNL'' (during Lorne Michaels second run starting in 1985 and continuing to this day) do show what it would be like if Goodman were a cast member and it was under someone who was competent in showrunning a late-night sketch show.

He's known for his large frame (though he has lost a considerable amount of weight in recent times) and deep, familiar baritone which makes him instantly recognizable. He's a frequent collaborator with Creator/TheCoenBrothers, and is otherwise incredibly prolific to the point of being iconic.
