Will Forte imitating Zell Miller on Saturday Night Live |
|
is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I laughed so hard I almost crapped my pants!!!
And...JAYZUS, Lindsey Lohan looks like SHIT. Is she dead?

1. He puts a LOT into that. |
|
I can't imagine the kind of headache that gives him. It's worth it, because he's hilarious.
I agree. She looks strung out.

7. Americas Top Model sketch was bad |
|
But the Star Wars sketch was quite good. I wish they'd do more of this material and less reoccurring sketches.
Divertor was simply awesome. Great biting social commentary, and SPOT on.
Appalachian Emergency Room is so played. It's so lazy to do this sketch every few shows. These kind of bits are why the show sucks.

8. Divertor ruled! Spot on indeed. |
|
I like SNL overall, but yeah, it can get mundane. I miss Will Ferrell.

And NO MORE returning bits. Period.
It's frustrating to have a very talented cast assembled and see them doing such terribly thoughtless material!
Amy Poehler, Rachel Dratch, Will Forte, Fred Armisen... These guys are better than this.
SNL has the laziest writing in the business. Mad TV's wring is just as bad, but they have shit for talent so it wouldn't matter anyway.

I'd like to see more new material too. And maybe just a *few more* Zell Millers....

13. You can bring back funny stuff |
|
But it has to be in new ways. I personally LOVE Armisen's Prince impression and definitely want to see it again, but not as the Prince Show. Prince at the supermarket or gambling with his buddies... etc
Same deal with Forte as Zell Miller, they shouldn't keep doing it in the framework of Hardball. Cut out the funny (Forte as Zell) and put it in a different or quirky bit. How about Zell at the dentist? or Zell Miller narrating a book on tape?
If you've got a knockout character get them in the show, but in different settings and sketch types. And keep it rare.

3. Oh yeah, its hilarious! |
|
And yes, the fact that I think Lohan looked better when she was 17/18 makes me feel like a dirty old man.

5. Ah..not to worry it's not that. |
|
She isn't much older than that now, but the thing is, she is starving herself, and looks real sickly and strung out at this point. I think she looked better back then too, because she was healthier.

I have a wicked non-sexual crush on him-- it's the same crush that I have on Jon Stewart ;-).

A little funny goes a long way. I also love Forte's lesser known, but still to me, hysterical, character "Tim Calhoun" the stuttering politician.

Isn't the falcon named Patrick?
