SNL: Samberg strikes again

[Killick]

Surprised there's no SNL thread already. Anyway, I fell asleep in front of the TV, woke up midway through just in time for the latest digital short. Glad I did -- another keeper. Right up there with **** in a Box, though I'm still puzzled how they got it past the NBC censors.

Enjoy.



"Don't don't tell your friends or I'll say you're a ****. It's your fault anyway, you were rubbing my butt."

"To be fair you were flirting a lot, plus the way you bag cans got me bothered and hot."

Plus, a Timberlake cameo.

Not too bad to have Jamie Lynn Sigler in there, either.

Actually, I thought it was one of the stronger SNLs in quite a while. A number of pretty good sketches.

Good stuff ... I like how every little thing sets them off. Hilarious. Good cameo from Timberlake, and Molly Sims and Jamie Lynn Sigler look great.

 

[BYH]

I'll have to take your word on it, Shottie. The second skit was so god-awful (can't remember what it was, only that it starred the usually solid Kristen Wiig, mmm, Kristen) that I changed the channel and never came back.

 

[shotglass]

Oh, well. I thought that was pretty funny.

 

[BYH]

you would.

 

[Killick]

Here's a question: are the codas harmed by thee two gents? I mean, it's not masturbation...

 

[shotglass]

No. Does not qualify. I checked the rule book.

 

[Killick]

Thank God. Sounds like it would have been the death penalty for the codas.

The episode was pretty good - the video was funny (almost missed it because it was sandwiched between two commercial breaks late in the show) Hader's Malkovich impression was great but somewhat wasted, nice to see Amy Poehler back.
The Malkovich reading of Night Before Christmas was pretty funny too.

 

[Killick]

Wait. Poehler was back? I thought she was supposed to be done when she pushed out the kid. Remember reading at least one story that she wasn't returning, going off to chase movie career instead.

 

[playthrough]

Yeah. She can get more mileage out of her Hillary impression now that she's Sec'y of State.

I thought it was a good episode too.

If Samberg only did these shorts, I'd like him. But, he appears in live sketches, thus I hate him.

Have a heart, man. Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals was gold.

I thought she was going to be in The Office spinoff.

Anyway, it was good to see her on Weekend Update again.

 

[WSKY]

Samberg is great.

 

[shotglass]

I won't go that far, but he has found a new-wave niche.

 

[Freelance Hack]

Keenan Thompson as Plaxico Burress was pretty good on Weekend Update, as was Samberg as another 9-year-old relationship expert.

"Jizz in My Pants" is funny, but it's not as good as "**** in the Box" or "Chronic (What!) -les of Narnia"

 

[shotglass]

Nothing's going to touch "**** In A Box."

But the cameos of Jamie Lynn, Molly Sims and JT made last night's No. 2.

Who was the other guy with Samberg in that?

 

[dreunc1542]

Samberg had one with Adam Levine called Iran so Far that I love. Here's the video on hulu: http://www.hulu.com/watch/16771/saturday-night-live-snl-digital-short-iran-so-far
