Terribly.

Also, Ariana Grande did a better impression than anyone; I'm kind of in awe.

Episode was much better than I was expecting. I'd expect to see Ariana host again. I don't think she'll be a staple like Timberlake, but she's got what it takes.

One of my all-time favorites. I'm certain they'll do it on Kenan's last episode.

So what all happened in the back hour, because in San Diego the feed was fuuuuuuucked after the Tidal skit, there were large stretches of bumper image, the NBC logo, and no ads, and eventually we cut from one of the only aired ads into the middle of a Sound of Music skit and then cut back out in the middle of a line to where that ad left off. Ten minutes later I got part of a credits roll.

After the Tidal sketch, there was:

- national ad break
- tease #5
- local ad break
- Family Feud sketch
- national ad break
- tease #6
- local ad break
- bumper
- NBC promo
- station break (would be where the NBC logo you saw was)
- Grande's 2nd song
- local ad break (could be the bumper you saw, if you didn't hear music)
- Sound of Music sketch
- local ad break
- credits and goodnights
- NBC promo, terminal station break

Sounds like KNSD's Master Control Operator couldn't push buttons at the correct time.

Unfortunately Kevin Smith has been lost in a weed cloud for 20 years so nobody under 40 seems to know who he is. Real shame about that, would have loved to see him making more movies with a sharp mind.

Jewel's performance of "Who Will Save Your Soul" is one of the all time classics, hopefully it's left in. Even when she flubs it a bit!

This vintage ep is a bit of a head-scratcher as opposed to last week's one. It has a few dated gay jokes like Lorne and Goodman calling Tim Meadows in a dress "fruity" and Will Ferrell throwing up after learning Ellen is a lesbian. I guess they felt it was an important show for having the first Celebrity Jeopardy skit, but only Burt was there, no Sean Connery yet. Connery pretty much makes Celeb Jeopardy.

Kind of a meh pick, especially with the awkward gay panic jokes.

Edit: errr, and they didn't include whatever the Mike Myers appearance was, he just shows up at the goodbye
instead the editor thought we needed to see Cheri Oteri's pill-popper character
and an npr skit that was pretty bland (yeah, i know that's the joke, but still)

Ferrell's WU bit was mocking the idea of Ellen being gay as a problem, in a suitably subtle SNL fashion

At least that's how it always came off to me. Things have come a long way in the last 19 years. Will & Grace was still over a year away! Back then it was A Big loving Deal that a gay woman was on TV, with plenty of pearl clutching from the usual shrieklords.

I had forgotten about Norm eating the vomit. Total classic.

All of his movies were terrible. That's like saying "I bet Michael Bay movies would be amazing if he wasn't really lovely at making movies".

^^ oh man, when Ellen Degeneres came out (as her character on her show that everyone loved) it was insane. The 90s were progressive but coming from a very backwards place.

No, I didn't know that. I just read a [mostly mediocre] Cracked article and that happened to be the highlight. Thanks for the background info.

That would really suck, getting paralyzed for a loving Transformers movie.

Reminds me of this story of when Jeff Daniels hosted SNL in 1995.

Think that's bad?

From a stunt actress, after waking up from a coma:
"2 weeks in a coma, brain bleed, brain swelling, severed main artery in the neck, crushed & degloved face, several broken ribs, paralyzed arm, shattered scapula, broken clavicle, broken humerus, broken radius & ulna, with an open wound and a 7.5 piece of bone missing, amputated thumb, torn fingers, 5 nerves torn out of the spinal cord…. not my funnest day on set.”

And you can't even blame weed. He only started smoking after Seth Rogen got him into it during Zack and Miri. That was also just before he "quit" making movies for the first time and decided to just be a podcaster. He has since decided to quit after every subsequent movie, I think.

Some of his movies showed promise in the 90s, when indie movies were actually a new aesthetic people were getting into as an alternative to studio movies. Dogma was probably his last okay script, and proved that someone else really needed to be directing them. I know directing pays a lot more and he became known as one, but I imagine his career would have been a lot better regarded if he had stuck to writing, maybe with a partner who could edit down his worse habits.

Rolling Stone: SNL's All Cast Members Ranked

RS loves their rankings, and I have to admit I am a sucker for this poo poo too. Nobody can every be satisfied with them, you're always looking for something that upsets you. I expect this will be no different.

First, I don't expect him to do well on this list, but Norm Macdonald at 135 is wrong. What I disagree with most is number 98... Bobby Moynihan. "He's an uncle and he's drunk. Got it. Saving grace: His brilliant Chris Christie imitation." He got jobbed here. Bobby is a great part of the current cast, and gently caress you Rolling Stone, Drunk Uncle is loving awesome. He deserves a few dozen more points for rear end Dan alone. On the other side of the list, I think Tina Fey is too high; she's top 25, but for the most part, she's one great political impression and a Weekend Update host. I also think Poehler is a little bit higher than necessary. I am pleasantly surprised with what they gave Hader, though, so I'll give them that.

I clicked the link before I read your post, and the two things that instantly stuck out like a sore thumb were Norm and Bobby. So yeah, it's not just you.

I'm not sure what's more humourless: ranking a list of everyone whose been a cast member, or sticking Norm at the bottom of it.

John McCain and The White Stripes!

Yes there were some good sketches, McCain was a good sport, etc. But what really matters is The White Stripes. Finally, a chance to get a good quality recording of these classic performances. And a decent capture of their bumper. We all were still recording on VHS back in 2002. And if the timings are telling the truth, it looks like we'll get both songs - "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" and "We're Going to Be Friends"! I hope I'm right.

No Vintage next week, figure skating is on.

Edit: Kinda surprised they're not running Garry Shandling / Los Lobos from 1987.
