"Saturday Night Live" opened last night with a sketch lampooning Fox News's election coverage. Yes, the 2009 elections dominated cable news coverage consisted of exactly two gubernatorial races and two congressional seats, but that didn't stop Fox News from spinning it as a referendum on Obama's presidency.
SNL's sketch focused on a panel lead by Greta Van Susteren (aptly played by Kristen Wiig) of three conservative voices and Joe Trippi...

Saturday Night Live opened this weekend's show with a parody of Fox News covering Democratic losses in last Tuesday's elections.
SNL cast members portraying Greta Van Susteren, Brit Hume, Karl Rove and Shepard Smith all concluded that the governor races in Virginia and New Jersey prove it's the "end of an era" for President Barack [...]

It was the "end of an era," those elections conducted last week, according to Saturday Night Live's account of the way its writers figure that FOX News Channel's writers see and report it.
FOX will be quick to note that it is the No. 1-rated cable news channel, its election-night coverage far and away drawing more viewers than its rival cable news channels grabbed.
But that won't stop the SNL crew from having some...

On this weekend's Saturday Night Live, the digital short was a Twilight spin-off parody titled Firelight. What happens when a high school girl falls in love with a reanimated green jock and two worlds collide? This is probably one of the funniest Twilight parodies I've seen. Watch it now after the jump.

Hmm. It's not a great episode of SNL Weekend Update Thursday when the funniest thing in it was a Hall and Oates song about the healthcare system. Actually, I might still have found that the funniest thing even if the episode was otherwise pretty solid.
It just felt like a ton of good opportunities were missed this episode (no cold opener, or Amy Poehler, by the way). For instance, a joke about Sarah Palin finishing her memoirs and the best...

LOS ANGELES — Is Tina Fey an Emmy winner? You betcha. Fey received an Emmy Award on Saturday for her impersonation of Republican vice presidential contender Sarah Palin on "Saturday Night Live."
Accepting her trophy for best guest actress in a comedy, Fey thanked "SNL" producer Lorne Michaels and her parents, "who are lifelong Republicans, for their patience."
She was honored at the Creative Arts Primetime Emmys, which recognize...

As the most recurring hosts of "Saturday Night Live," both Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin have learned something about entertaining a live TV audience.
Martin, who hosted "SNL" a record 14 times in its 31 seasons, has hosted the Oscars twice before, in 2001 and 2003, with a droll, well-received approach.
Baldwin, a three time Emmy winner for his role on "30 Rock," has hosted "SNL" 13 times but has never hosted the Oscars (he has lost one...

Her character Peggy Olson might be stifling in a 1960s atmosphere of sexism and repression but "Mad Men's" Elisabeth Moss has something to crack a big smile about: The actress married "Saturday Night Live" funnyman Fred Armisen on Sunday, her rep confirms.

Short answer: no. Longer answer: probably not.It seems that every season is the "Saturday Night Live isn't what it used to be" (aka "Saturday Night Live sucks!") season, but it always survives. And some years, like last season when they had the election to riff on and appearances by Tina Palin and lots of buzz in the news, they thrive. But The Washington Post's Tom Shales visited with executive producer Lorne Michaels and finds that Michaels...

In a big “ouch” moment, Saturday Night Live fired two cast members — Michaela Watkins and Casey Wilson — just before the premiere. (Watkins told the New York Daily News that Lorne Michaels explained this to her by saying that she’s so good she deserves her own show. Oh, Lorne.) Watkins had been there for [...]

This weekend Saturday Night Live opened with Fred Armisen as President Obama, delivering an address from the Oval Office. Noting up front that he'd failed to secure the 2016 Olympic Games for Chicago, Armisen's Obama said it was just further proof that his detractors' fears are unfounded: How could he transform the country into something resembling the former Soviet Union or Nazi Germany when he's failed to accomplish anything at all? "When...

Seth Meyers worked solo on the desk for the entirety of "SNL Weekend Update Thursday" this week for the first time this season, meaning Amy Poehler was seen only in her own sitcom "Parks & Recreation."
Unlike the mother show "Saturday Night Live" the half hour Thursday edition doesn't run credits or even say who's part of the ensemble. But it's clear it's not quite everybody from "SNL." Kristen Wiig is still about the only female; neither of...

Rumors! They swirl. And one of them recently hit the ground running: that Casey Wilson was fired from Saturday Night Live for being fat. Strange: Wilson's not that fat. Also, some of SNL's best have been overweight. So, Wilson speaks: I had an amazing time on SNL, and these rumors are completely untrue," Wilson, 28, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. "And to clarify, the issue isn't that I'm too fat, it's that I'm too phat. Can I get a...

To be perfectly honest, last night's episode of Saturday Night Live wasn't that great. However, there were a few highlights, and most of them came from the cast's ability to pull off some pretty dead-on celebrity impressions. The episode started with another weak Obama impression by Fred Armisen, who is either doing some sort of subtle commentary by giving up his impersonation halfway through the skit or is just over the job altogether. It was...
