Why he might be annoying:

    He was resented by SNL's inner circle because he refused to work in New York and would send in films from California.
    He was also resented for going too long on his SNL film submissions, but because Brooks' films were a highlight of SNL, they could not reign him in.
    He lived with Linda Ronstadt.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is known as the 'West Coast Woody Allen.'
    His comedy has been called anti-comedy, it is where things go wrong (a frog stands in for an elephant or a ventriloquist where the dummy drinks the water.)
