Now with his mom gone we need scenes of that kid chomping on Littlefinger's tit next week.

I love just how universally despised Frey and Henley are. I've never heard anyone have a good thing to say about either of them.
It's generally staggered throughout the summer. Lorne is notorious for not telling even some longstanding cast members their status. David Spade was just on Stern and said that for all five (or so) years he was on he never knew until right before the new season if he was coming back. Every summer he had to move…
When I would hear his show on Sirius, Bubba the Love ponge would always call Hulk Hogan "Terry", but that's cause he's a starfucking douche trying to show what good friends they were. Well, we saw the video of him with your ex-wife, Bubba. We know you were friends. And we know who the actual starfucker was in your…
I'm totally with you. There was someone on Rolling Stone (probably fucking Rob Sheffield) who would always name PJ Harvey with the full "Polly Jean" or would slip it in somehow. Anytime I saw it, it just pretentiously screamed out how much they were trying to show how in the know they were by using the full name. …
If they tried to ask Bobby to leave, he might get a 'lil stabby.
And popping his eyes out and barely hiding a smile. And the audience screams and absolutely lose their collective shit.
I've watched most of SNL this season, and this is the second week in a row that I had to google Milhiser's name when reading the recap to see what he looks like. It's either early onset Alzheimers or …. no, it's not that. He's just that unmemorable.
The existence of Yoko is completely justified if only for that TV
appearance when John played with Chuck Berry and Yoko started wailing in the middle. The look of Chuck's face is fucking beautiful.
Well, Axl's been a narcissistic, sociopathic douchebag pretty consistently so I'm not surprised at all by that.
There must be drag queen cover bands of Jem because… there just have to be, right? I think the Misfits are drag queens already. Pizzazz couldn't always hide the Adam's apple well.
A.K.A The Futurama Conundrum
Drunk Uncle's success seems to hinge on the studio audience laughing with delight whenever he mentions Instagram, or some current song, or something to make them go "OMG!! I KNOW THAT THING HE'S TALKING ABOUT!!!"
Totally agree on Pharoah. At least he's tried to add more content lately then simply focusing on one random tic of the voice and driving that into the ground.
Game shows and random talk shows are always the bread and butter of SNL. In the 90s, with the success of Wayne's World and Church Lady, it seemed like every sketch was the random talk show on cable access. Lately it's more game shows. This season it's been especially obvious without having Bill Hader's presence as…
That opening was pretty bad. I like Bayer, but she was horribly miscast as Clinton, especially with Kate McKinnon in the cast. The acting in the sketch felt like the final exam showcase in a college improv class.
Some of the early episodes, though, had very few sketches compared to now and were chock full of non-cast member pieces like Muppets, Andy Kaufman and other comedian bits, Albert Brooks short films, and more music.
Maybe because the AV Club's Max Headroom article was still fresh in my mind, but seeing Axl on the screen really highlighted how cartoonish, boorish, and Headroom like his acting is. Not in a good way, either.
I had hopes for it last season, but it's basically a live action version of the first ten minutes or so of WTF, and I'm firmly in the camp who usually hates that part of the show. I don't often skip ahead to the interview because once in a while there is something ok in the intro, but it mostly can be a slog. That's…
Reading the paragraph describing the "plots" of the episode pissed me off all over again because the vapidness of the descriptions completely matches how vapid and unimportant all of them were in execution, too.
