Maraka/Dora the Explorer on SNL

UPDATE: Watching “SNL Just Shorts” tonight I was reminded of just how hilarious this TV Funhouse video was. Classic! —– Last night Saturday Night Live featured a Robert Smigel cartoon spoof based on the popular kids show Dora the Explorer. I’m not sure if many of you will appreciate this, but if you have little […]

Will Ferrell Hosts Celebrity Jeopardy on SNL

Will Ferrell was back as JEOPARDY host Alex Trebek in SNL’s version of “Celebrity Jeopardy”. The contestants included Kathie Lee Gifford (Kristin Wiig), Tom Hanks (as himself), Sean Connery (Darryl Hammond) and a special appearance by Burt Reynolds (Norm McDonald). As always, funny stuff.

Will Ferrell & Surprise Guests Take the Stage in SNL’s Finale

SNL alum Will Ferrell took to the main stage last night as host of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE’s season finale.  But Will wasn’t the only alum to show up in Studio 8H.  SNL favorites Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph and Norm McDonald also made cameo appearances much to my delight. Amy first appeared back in the old […]

STAR TREK’s Chris Pine & Zachary Quinto on SNL

I’m on a bit of a roll today with these SNL clips, but it’s not often that SNL has more than one good clip to talk about on Sunday mornings. STAR TREK stars Zachary Quinto (HEROES), Chris Pine and Leonard Nimony guested on SNL during last night’s Weekend Update to address Trekkies. (I really need […]

Justin Timberlake: Bring it on Down to Plasticville

First he was schilling for omelettes. Then he was raising money for the homeless down in Homelessville. But now making sure that everyone knows where to get the best plastic surgery in town. So come one, come all, and bring it on down to Plasticville.

Justin Timberlake: Motherlover – SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE

Justin Timberlake doesn’t disappoint. Maybe the key to making SNL good again is to have JT on ever week. Ok, maybe not. But still, it’s always a good time when he’s on. One of the best moments from last night was the SNL Digital Short sequel to “Dick in a Box”. This time around it’s […]

Zac Efron SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE: High School Musical 4

Troy Bolton returns from college and has some hard truth for the students of East High School. I thought Zac was fine as a host. Other than the skit above, I didn’t find anything else particularly funny. Did you like last night’s episode?

The Jonas Brothers on Saturday Night Live

SNL took full advantage of last night’s musical guests, The Jonas Brothers. The Brothers Joani were featured in a bunch of skits last night. They were actually pretty good and I wouldn’t be surprised if SNL has them coming back soon as hosts/musical guests. I thought they were really, really, really awesome…best thing ever!! (That […]

The Best of Neil Patrick Harris on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE

My love for all things Neil Patrick Harris have been well documented here on this site.  But after last night’s hosting gig of SNL, my love has only grown.  I had not doubt that Neil was going to be fantastic, but he so committed to each and every skit that he really stood out as […]

SNL – Mark Wahlberg Talks to…Andy Samberg (Watch)

Nice!  We had hoped that Mark Wahlberg hadn’t lost his sense of humor, and after his stellar showing on SNL it’s clear he hasn’t.  Marky Mark was featured in the brilliant opening sketch and then again later in this sketch with Andy Samberg. It’s even that much funnier if you’ve been following Wahlberg’s rants in […]

Sarah Palin’s Weekend Update Gangsta Rap with Amy Poehler

Sorry but it’s not like SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE is funny ever week.  There were a lot of moments to share…including this Weekend Update bit featuring Sarah Palin and her Alaskan gangsta rap. Sarah Palin herself bopping along was funny, but Amy Poehler rapping in the “terminal phase of her pregnancy” was hysterical.
