Yeah, that's an interesting question.  Generally when a star big as Lohan dies after years of drug trouble, they've achieved that stardom by appearing in a number of well received movies, showing plenty of raw talent and potential grow, and have counterbalanced their troubled personal lives with genuine contributions…

Actually, I can think of few things I'd like more than to be scolded by Tina Fey for something.

God, if that album were just the crosstalk between the songs and none of the songs themselves, it would still be worth owning.  There are better albums than that one to have come out in the 60s, but that one is such great artifact for all the stuff happening between the tracks.

With Lindsey Lohan's track marks, she will most likely be jacked on white featuring a nose all full beyond comprehension.

[Makes a big ol' bag of popcorn, prepares for tangible tension in scenes with both Lohan and head writer Seth Meyers]

Actually, I'd really love to make the argument that "capitalist patriarchy has rights, too" around my hardcore feminist friends to see how it would go over.

I watch SNL hungover on Sunday morning, like any real American.

Agreed.  It was a nice of them to switch everything up to have an old cast member appear.  Having an actual comedian host was great, rather than a dramatic actor who just saps the life out of the sketches.  It's in-fir-iating when that happens, and it happens to often to Count. The Rings the cast members can run…

Well, my issue isn't with calculation all in of itself.  I'm perfectly happy with the idea of people taking time and effort to refine a piece of art until they get it just right.  My issue is that although Perry is the product of a great many people's labor and thought, we're not supposed to think of Katy Perry as…

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there have been a couple of bumps in the road for Lohan since that movie came out.

I actually liked the "Nine" joke, just because the flashes of absurdism and weirdness that occasionally appear in SNL are great at counterbalancing the mediocrity of the rest of the show.

Oh god, right?  I would absolutely love if PJ Harvey came out and played harpischord music about Victorian era dread and longing on the same stage that Karmin was babbling their bullshit on entirely to fuck with American audiences.

This is like a guaranteed ratings spike for SNL.  I think next week is going to make for pretty uncomfortable watching since most everybody who shows up to watch is there entirely to see if she crumbles.

Easily more than half of the shitty hipster rock bands around today are trying to replicate garage rock sounds by playing it in their loft spaces.  Can't imagine why it's coming out wrong.

Actually, they could just trim down on Weekend Update substantially if Meyers just said whichever celebrity was the set up of the joke and the aspect of their personality that was punch line, and then making his "ain't I a stinker" face.

There was plenty of new material this time around, but I disagree a little with your assessment of The Obama Show.  I'd take it over another visit from Garth and Kat or Secret Word sketch any day, but it's a sketch that addresses a talking point from like four years ago.  It was clever and all (and the set design was…

Got you covered, enjoy while it's still up: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

Totally agree about Pharaoh. Granted, he was mainly still doing impression after impression, but they at least managed to use that well on multiple occasions.

God, that a was a bad skit.  It eventually hit this sublime place of "clearly this is all falling apart, so let's just tear this mother down."  I wondered at a few points if they had all done whip its during the commercial.
