I'm sure someone will provide a counterpoint but I've never found Armisen funny. I'm sure he has talent, but the way he's utilised is just 'he has weird face/voice' and will give awkward answers silences.
Him and Kristin Wiig I find unfunny on an existential level. Like, it makes me angry at the universe that these completely unfunny people have managed to make very successful careers out of doing "comedy."

His bit in Parks n Rec is gold.
where he showed up with Venezuelan military officers as the one in charge?
Yes. Its stupid politics, but the delivery is great.
I loved the sketch where he was a Brit Punk rocker who loved Margaret Thatcher
