he slightly resembles bill hader a bit? also is good at being a dumb bro, snl needs that
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 7 May 2017 21:33 (seven years ago) link
he sang in every single skit. i get that he can actually sing but did he need to do it in every skit he was in?
get the feeling they're saving some material for the finale with Melissa McCarthy next week. How have ratings been now that they're going live in the West Coast? I went back and read an article from last year about this show needed a save and soon; it does seem like Baldwin and Trump honestly saved this show this year. Ensemble cast is good but McKinnon aside they still don't seem to have a single break out star; but maybe that's for the best.

white castle sketch was the best one in the show and the first shocking thing it feels like SNL has done in years and years
I liked Katy Perry's performance.

the farting sketch was funny. farting is always funny, I don't know why. I think th efact that half the sounds were more like animals than farts made it work.
the jurassic park ride sketch wasn't funny at all but it had an adorable baby pig

Hallelujah cold open was horrible the first time, unimaginably worse the second. Such a waste. I almost always like Weekend Update, but this one felt really weak, low on jokes.

Could you possibly take her advice with regards to this board and fuck off somewhere to eat a cake?

Why are they doing SNL skits on Thursday
― President Keyes, Friday, 18 August 2017 14:03 (seven years ago) link
the crux of it was this:
“Next time when you see a bunch of white boys in polo shirts screaming about taking our country back, and you want to scream, ‘It’s not our country; we stole it from the Native Americans, and when they have a peaceful protest at Standing Rock, we shoot at them with rubber bullets, but we let you chinless turds march through the streets with semi-automatic weapons!’ When you want to yell that, don’t yell it at the Klan, Colin—yell it into the cake. Then when Ann Coulter crawls out of her roach motel and says, ‘Antifa attacked Republicans in Berkeley,’ and you’re like ‘O.K., yard-sale Barbie, but the other side is Nazis and Klansmen. And also, who drove the car into the crowd, Hillary’s e-mails?

she advocates patronizing jewish, black, and minority establishments instead of going to these rallies.

Yes, she’s right to be concerned about safety. White supremacist rallies have a very good chance of escalating into violence. But to actually advise people to not protest Nazis can only come from someone of immense privilege, from someone whose community who actually faces no threat, and from someone who will most likely make it out okay if things go south.I’m sure Fey’s heart’s in the right place, but it just goes to prove once again that even liberals can fall into the trap of assigning the violence that white supremacists cause to the people trying to stand against it—the flip side of the very same rhetoric Donald Trump was spouting earlier this week.Ignoring Nazis isn’t taking the high road. Protesting and facing potential danger is taking the high road. Obviously, we cannot afford to sit at home. While I wholeheartedly believe “sheetcaking” is a great coping mechanism that can cure many a broken heart, and supporting Jewish and black-owned businesses is a great thing, the last time we let Nazis scream into the empty air, it ended up in a fucking genocide.
