Saturday Night Live

think the hardest i laughed all episode was at hader's phil spector

Hader doesn't even have to say anything, the faces he makes as Spector or that weird alien sports guy are priceless.

That really was Madonna! The arms are a dead giveaway. She does look good, but there's something kind of pathetic about the Gaga fight -- at some point you should stop trying to be down with the kids.

That was most certainly Madonna. But I'll agree she looked way younger than she usually does. And that whoe Madge/Gaga thing was pretty lame.

Morbs, Downey has the ability, despite his political leanings, to tackle different sides of an issue. He's written a lot of GOP-skewering sketches, as well. If you could just re-read that post of mine real quick, you'll see that I didn't say that the sketch was written from a right-wing persepective. Rather, I'm guessing it was written by right-winger Downey because my understanding is that most political sketches that are critical of the Democrats are written by Downey.

I had no idea that Jim Downey was related to RDJ. Is that how RDJ ended up on Saturday Night Live in the first place?

ok

...bu then, by current standards, that really doesn't make him sound like a right-winger.

I was at this radio interview, and they mostly talked about Fey's Sarah Palin:

Very possibly, Nicole. I mean, most of the cast that season consisted of semi-famous actors (RDJ, Anthony Michael Hall, Joan Cusack), but that would've been right after Downey returned to SNL, so it was probably a factor.

oh wow, that is kind of sad that it was really Madonna. My boyfriend & I were mesmerized by the "incredible makeup work" they'd done on what we presumed was an SNL actress but I agree, she's a bit too old to do something that ridiculous.. Good for her for looking so good though! I fell asleep on the couch before the ending credits, as I always do..this time I missed weekend update too though :(

noooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

gilly!

imo

lol

drew barrymore looked like she wuz 55 yrs old in the monologue

*takes off safety*

*aims at head*

srsly worst skit

What happened to MAD TV?

It's cast was much funnier than the SNL casts it competed against, imo.

i dunno i fuckin love gilly i guess u_u

morelike Kristen Wiig Makes Faces Live imo

the liam character kills me tbh

who is musical guest?

regina spektor lmao

regina spektorofl

alright what was that

i thought it was okay tbh. sharon osbourne one made me lol

oh shit! snl is on NOW. fucking Central Time. not used to this.

no one likes regina spektor, right

n opinion on her, she's kinda hot tho

no*

i liked her song where in the video they threw colored powder on each other

haha dude EVERYONE is making that same joke about marge simpson & playboy

i'm pretty much dying right now atm - as much as an snl sketch could

the pool stuff is almost funny

yeah it's pretty ripe for a parody... but.... idk

i got talked into joining a 9-ball league irl and, yeah, pool subculture is weird

first bobby moynahan character to please meh

what the hall was that

hell* obv

i came back into the room to birds dippin bread into sauce and lol'd

"rock out with your hock out" is something that guy fieri would think to say but then self-censor because of food network

road trip sketch plz

lol'd @ last sketch

Bill Hader as James Carville has become my new favorite thing of all time.

Also, I've grown to appreciate Gilly.

I have a lot more patience for SNL during its crap years than a lot of people, but god, this season has been horrific. I guess amy poehler had been holding this on her shoulders for a long time.

wiig has some comedic sense to her and I could like her in the right situation...but all of her characters make me want to turn off the tv.

her *i am making faces and acting socially unaware* schtick works really well in 'adventureland' imo, and pretty infrequently on snl

that was the first funny carville sketch though xps

Not a fan of Wiig on SNL. At times she seems so redundant of improv comedy formulas for how to be funny or create a character. xpost

i came back into the room to birds dippin bread into sauce and lol'd

Loved this.

The sauce dip and last week's "Happy birthday, ground!" = show redeemed for me somewhat

oh my god, fred's getting LAZY with his obama act.

That Food Network sketch was some serious belly laughs for me.
