I don’t know, “Big Penis Therapy Johnson” seems like it was done on purpose...

Yup, I just met him in June (I had a VIP ticket for his concert and I even got to play Weird Al Jeopardy-- and I won!) and he was awesome with everyone. I’ve never heard a bad word said about him yet, and when you’ve been in showbiz for forty years, that’s becoming more and more rare.

I guess I haven’t either. I’ve been working for thirty years now, and I never worked anyplace where I felt like my co-workers were my second family. I’ve liked a lot of them, and some of them I’ve remained friends with, but that’s the extent of it.

Yeah, it’s like halfway through the season they forgot it was supposed to be a comedy.

“Sorry for your loss, but your rental of Ernest Goes to Camp is very overdue...”

I agree. The trope doesn’t even exist anymore, because you know they will. If it’s hinted at even once, they definitely will. The days of Sam and Diane, when it was genuinely a mystery, are sadly long gone.

I find it ironic that the same people who will drop thousands of bucks on a Disney vacation are the same people who boycott Amazon because they refuse to give money to a billionaire whose employees aren’t making a living wage (and I know several).

I sat down with the tarot reader without saying my name and paid in cash. And yeah, for ten dollars this woman spent an hour with me. That’s hardly a worthwhile scam.”

Yup, and then guaranteed at least one of the following will happen:

Yeah, people tend to shit on some of the recurring characters this show had years ago, like Pat or Rob Schneider’s “making copies” guy, but back then they knew how to write those sketches so they were different every time— in this one he’s riffing on people’s names while they use the copier, but then in the next one

That Joker sketch read like Jeff Probst just wandered in off the street and the writers had to make up a sketch for him to be in so he’d go away.

What an amazing acting range MTS had, playing Sassy Black Lady and... actually, that’s it.

Not sure if anyone noticed but there was kind of a weird moment between Mikey Day and Chloe Fineman in that History Channel sketch. When he went to point out something on the map he had to kind of reach past Chloe to do it, like she hadn’t moved out of the way enough, and he did kind of a passive-aggressive gesture on

I actually found it funnier. Possibly it has to do with a new cast member who we’re not sick of yet, possibly because unlike the McKinnon sketch, this one didn’t just boil down to using multiple euphemisms for “vagina” and “ass” over and over again.

I was thinking of her recently because I remembered her from commercials in the 80s. Recently I watched her on “The Weird Al Show” and I was struck by how insanely unfunny she was; it was cringe-worthy. Still, RIP.

I agree, this is neither the time nor the plaice.

I was just there this past June-- it’s a fun place!

Yeah, Aidy got to say a few poignant words at the end of her Update gig, with Bowen Yang also getting emotional as he said he couldn’t have doe it (the character, presumably) without her. Compare that to Kyle, who didn’t even get to stay onscreen until the end of his final sketch, just walked off nonchalantly so Aidy

My favorite was “Jughead’s Time Police,” the series where Jughead got visits from a girl from the future where Jughead becomes some sort of heroic icon and they work together to stop time-related crimes.

I have to give some credit to whoever programmed the robot that hosted this week, it looked exactly like Selena Gomez! It’s unfortunate that it couldn’t be programmed to recognize basic human speech functions and how to read cue cards properly, but one thing at a time.
