and now I don’t feel so well. I think I broke something. And my pants are now strangely uncomfortable.
Damn. Maybe I’m just biased because I thought she was the only thing worth watching in the Austin Powers movie, and she was awesome in that. But. Damn.
Ms. Knowles is so beautiful it hurts my eyes. When she said “Sha-zam” in that awful movie, it stirred up some kind of teen libido I haven’t experienced in many years - lusting after a character in a movie.
She is a very attractive woman. But I think she missed her lip synchs a couple of time in that SNL. Fortunately I only saw that one song, part of the intro and the very end of Weekend Update. Glad to hear that the rest sucked.
I watched one skit last night on SNL, and it HURT. Who thought that the Donnatella Versace skit was a good idea? It was just too surreal, and SO F*CKING UNFUNNY. Dan Ackroyd as the gay pool boy? What the hell was that?
I think SNL needs either some SERIOUS revamping, or a cancellation. What the hell is Lorne Michaels thinking? The show is crap now. CRAP.
Sorry for the rant, but I’m offended that they’re trying to pass that garbage off as entertainment. Ugh.
Chris Kazzan waited all this time to be funny. Aside from Goth Talk, he’s never made me so much as snicker, and now he busts out with that “Sprechen sie DICK ?” line that had me reaching incontinence. Didn’t know he was such a tease.
SNL goes through this periodically. I’m not sure what the cure is, but they are nearly 30 years into it now and this isn’t even close to the worst it’s ever been, and yet some of the best it’s ever been was just a few years ago. (The Al Gore stuff during the election was hysterical, flat out hysterical.) And Weekend Update, while it’s blown in the past few months, was decent earlier in the season.
SNL is a very, very difficult show to do, and particularly by the end of the year. Summer off, some new blood… could be great next fall.
I gave up on the show VERY early. When that pathetic “Top O’ The Morning” sketch is the first one up after the monologue, followed right up by Kattan’s washed-up-Vegas-comic thing, it’s bad, BAD news. I can’t imagine what kind of garbage they packed onto the end of the show.
Why was Akroyd considered the only host? Goodman was in so many sketches, he should have counted as a co-host. I wish they’d declare a five year moratorium on certain hosts like Goodman, Alec Baldwin, and Sting. The SNL gang clearly enjoys having them on the show, but none have been very funny during more recent appearances on the show.
The dog restuarant sketch was DOA. Potty and gross out humor, makeup, and a chance for everyone to hammy it up.
At least I got to hear the “Astronaut Jones” theme one more time, but the sketch was the same old tripe. I’m not a fan of Morgan’s, but that has to be one of the sorriest send-offs for a last episode of a cast member I’ve seen in a while.
Kattan seemed to get much more attention, at least with him leaving we won’t have to see that lame night club comic character again.
I can handle the Donnatella Versace sketches, they’re better that those “Top O’ The Morning” sketches, IMO. But NO MORE JOHN GOODMAN IN DRAG! It was funny the first time with him as Linda Tripp, but the shock value has worn off. That’s one of the reasons I want the moratorium. It’s not like Anna Nicole Smith is anything more than a fatter version of Drunk Girl.
I laughed a few more times than I have per episode for most of the season, but that’s not saying much. I won’t go on since most of my gripes about SNL are probably better suited to The Pit.
