Saturday Night Live

Tina Fey recently did a bit of her Sarah Palin impression during the Ad Council Annual Dinner. With the 30 Rock ratings struggling, do you think she'll show up for a Going Rogue skit during tonight's SNL? [CBS]  

This past weekend, SNL goofed on the 2012 disaster film by mocking up a fake movie trailer to make the film's title be about Sarah Palin running for president with Glenn Beck as vice-president. I can't find a clip online, but it was amusing. Anyway, today Politico writes:  

While the first seven episodes of Saturday Night Live’s 35th season have been hit or miss, this past Saturday brought us one of the funnier moments from the iconic comedy series courtesy of Andy Samberg’s latest digital short. Samberg teamed up with the Kenan Thompson for Two Worlds Collide. Saturday Night Live Digital Short – Two World Collide by Jeffrey Greenblatt Leave A Comment  

There were people that treated me beautifully, like Will Ferrell and Colin Quinn and Molly Shannon . I love them,” Tracy said. “But Cheri Oteri and Chris Kattan, I never cared for them either. F*** ‘em.” Tracy’s “I Am the New Black ...  

The Dave Matthews Band rocked two songs on this past weekend’s Joseph Gordon-Levitt-hosted episode of Saturday Night Live, but it was Matthews’ killer turn as Ozzy Osbourne in Andy Samberg’s recurring sketch “The Mellow Show” that had fans abuzz. Samberg plays fellow acoustic guitar aficionado Jack Johnson in the bit that celebrates the wonders of [...]  

Jason Gordon-Levitt hosted Saturday Night Live last night and the Dave Matthews band was the musical guest. It was better than last week's episode with January Jones, but the writing on this show is just a disaster without Tina Fey. Jason Gordon-Levitt is very talented, however. In this skit, Andy Samberg is the host of a show called The Mellow Show. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Jason Mraz, Bill Hader plays Dave Matthews and Dave Matthews does...  

Celebrity book deals have multiplied this year, as everybody from Sarah Palin to Tina Fey inked contracts. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. To ease your frustration, GalleyCat has compiled a Celebrity Book Toolkit. For all the writers in the audience, mediabistro.com has some advice about how to find work co-writing a celebrity book. In the feature, attorney Robert Barnett (who represented Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney) had this advice...  

20th Century Fox has debuted the teaser trailer for Date Night starring Steve Carell and Tina Fey as a married couple who go out on a romantic date and get caught up in some crazy shit. This also stars an excessive amount of other big name actors including (some of whom you'll see in the trailer): Mila Kunis, Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, Mark Ruffalo, Kristen Wiig, Ray Liotta, Common, and Taraji P. Henson. There are some funny lines and funny...  

"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...  

Does anyone remember an ancient Saturday Night Live skit from January 1982 (season 7, episode 9) featuring Dan Ackroyd as FDR, actor Robert Conrad (that week's SNL guest host) as one of the president's advisers, and Gilda Radner as First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.  FDR is seated at his Oval Office ...  

Andy Samberg introduced a new musical "SNL" Digital Short on the latest episode of "Saturday Night Live," hosted by Joseph Gordon-Levitt. "Two Worlds Collide" features him and "Reba McEntire" (Kenan Thompson). It's nasty and I love it. ...  

I'm starting to like SNL a little...Okay, I know that I should be grateful that a "big star" like Charlie Sheen is lending his celebrity and trying to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project...BUT, Sheen is a 9/11 Truther. He believes OUR government perpetrated 9/11...so MUST think the troops are fighting needless wars...right? I don't know, I feel like him raising money for them is almost disrespectful to them. Am I reading too much into...  

Global destruction breaks out as Sarah Palin is elected president in 2012, in a new mashup presented on Saturday Night Live. News coverage purportedly revealing a Sarah Palin presidential victory and cataclysmic scenes from the new Roland Emmerich film draw familiar fake tears from new Vice President Glenn Beck on Fox News. "All the signs were [...]  

"Saturday Night Live" opened its show last night with a comedy sketch that scorched President Obama over his economic policies including health care, "Cash for Clunkers" and borrowing billions of dollars from China. The NBC program featured comic Fred Armisen portraying the commander in chief at a news conference with Chinese President Hu Jintao, played by Will Forte, who spoke through an interpreter, comic Nasim Pedrad. Jintao began by asking...  

Looks like NBC’s Saturday Night Live is trying to be Fair and Balanced. In a pretend setting of a press conference the hip show that often addresses Presidential politics was very though on Barack Obama. Comedian Fred Armisen was in the role of the Commander in chief. Will Forte and Nasim Pedrad portrait Chinese President [...]
