That comedic enthusiasm would eventually carry him right toward his dream. In 2008, Bobby Moynihan was cast on _SNL_ and starred on the show for nearly a decade. He did a few impressions, but his strength was portraying offbeat characters. When he joined us on Bullseye, he had just published a children’s book: _Not All Sheep are Boring_. It follows the adventures of sheep who actually lead rich, interesting lives and have hobbies like drinking coffee, metal detecting, and eating pasta.  These days Bobby keeps busy. He is starring in _The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins._ It's a mockumentary sitcom alongside _SNL_ alum Tracy Morgan. Bobby's also in Pixar's latest animated feature _Hoppers_. He plays an adorable beaver that's \"king of the mammals\" named King George.  Bobby joined Bullseye to talk about how he came up with the idea for his children's book, life after SNL, and, of course, portraying Drunk Uncle on Weekend Update.  _A version of this interview originally aired in 2022._",
