Hamm recently appeared with a beard at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, where "Mad M...

By Bob Sassone I don't get excited that often about new episodes of Saturday Night Live, but I'll be watching this Saturday. Jon Hamm is the host again, and if it's as good as his previous hosting gig it's going to be well worth watching. The musical guest is Michael Bublé.

Saturday Night Live has revealed that both Jon Hamm and Ashton Kutcher will return to host the show again - during separate weeks, of course. The Mad Men star will host the show on January 30, Kutcher on February 6. Michael Buble and Them Crooked Vultures will serve as the musical guests, resp...

By Wendy Ashton Kutcher took to Twitter last night to announce his Saturday Night Live hosting gig coming up on February 6. Kutcher tweeted: “Hosting SNL on Feb 6 with musical guest Them Crooked Vultures. Could not be more excited. more to come”

By orfilms@gmail.com (slashfilm.com) We brought you the red-band trailer for the upcoming MacGruber film just a few days ago, and now the studio has released a safer green-band version to lure unsuspecting families into its R-rated den of sin. The film is an adaptation of the SNL sketches featuring Will Forte as the titular Mac...

By By John Wenzel The Denver Post A glance at Rob Schneider inspires in most people a raft of strong feelings — many of them negative. Crude, lowbrow comedian. That annoying guy from "Saturday Night Live" and its copy-machine sketches. Adam Sandler's lackey.

By Wendy It’s another ESPN Classic SNL sketch – this time, we get commentary for the “Summer’s Eve Lady Stars of Darts.” Aw, Greg Stinky, you clueless bastard. Some of the gems in this SNL Summer’s Eve Lady Stars of Darts are: When something’s gone wrong, and it’s the smell of your thong – Summer’s Eve. D...

By The Huffington Post News Editors SNL" is close to the late-night shuffle and not just because it shares NBC as a network. "SNL" creator Lorne Michaels was executive producer of "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" before O'Brien took over the "Tonight" show. He also produces O'Brien's replacement: "Late Night with Jimmy Fall...

By Noel Sheppard Having been regularly lampooned by the folks at "Saturday Night Live," Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin now want to co-host the weekly comedy program. SARAH PALIN: They're good. BECK: No, they're busy right now, I think firing everybody on at night. I think that's what they're busy now.

By The Huffington Post News Editors Glenn Beck hosted newly-minted Fox Analyst Sarah Palin for an entire hour this evening, discussing everything from Harry Reid to "Saturday Night Live." After playing clips of the NBC show mocking both Beck and Palin, the pair offered to co-host the program. "How could they say 'no'?" Pali...

By Jesse Expectations for sports-star hosts of Saturday Night Live are already low, but SNL threw a curve ball of sorts by booking for their year/decade kickoff not just a sports star, but a sports star who no longer plays sports and, indeed, remains in the national consciousness primarily due to...

Tina Fey, who went from being the first female head writer of "Saturday Night Live" to the star and auteur of her own "SNL"-derived NBC sitcom, ...

By orfilms@gmail.com (slashfilm.com) I was wary that it would follow in the path of prior Saturday Night Live films. Most sketch concepts generally flourish when they’re just that - sketches. A full-length comedy falls into the trap of relying on the same old recycled jokes to the point where you not only loathe the film, but you r...

By Jesse It was a delirious high in an episode that had several, including a wonderfully strange last sketch of the night featuring Will Forte and Jason Sudeikis as Southern dandies/hillbillies (dandbillies) grappling over a stolen potato chip at a NASA job interview. I love pretty much any SNL s...

By Annie Wu Also, for the most part, the writing was solid this week. Probably the most consistently funny installment in quite a while. Even the strange treatment of the Cold Open (with the Obama party crashers) was adorable.Continue reading Review: Saturday Night Live - Blake Lively/Rihanna

By The Huffington Post News Editors Rihanna was SNL's musical guest this week and in addition to performing solo she unveiled a world premiere duet with "Shy Ronnie" aka Andy Samberg. It did not go well. Every time Rihanna threw to Samberg he mumbled incoherently into the mic. When she finally gave up on him and stormed out, Ronn...

By Brian Moylan She's just a writer with zero performing experience." Good thing no one listens to those idiots at the network, because if Lorne Michaels never put her on the air, we never would have gotten 30 Rock, and then there wouldn't be even one show worth watching on the network.

By Jesse Maybe it was a lucky break for Joseph Gordon-Levitt that last week’s episode of Saturday Night Live was so universally acknowledged as terrible, because by comparison, his own perfectly decent gig began to look positively transcendent. After a rocky start with a ridiculously overlong...

By Jesse At fourteen years old and eight feel tall, Taylor Swift became, I assume, one of the youngest and most towering celebrities to ever serve as both host and musical guest of Saturday Night Live. This should not be such rarified air; if this chick can do it, they should occasionally force other...

By The Huffington Post News Editors You might think I'd bring up Joe Jonas, that guy who broke up with me on the phone, but I'm not gonna mention him in my monologue. Hey Joe, I'm doing real well. Tonight, I'm hosting SNL but I'm not gonna brag about that in my monologue. La la la. Ha ha ha. La la la." WATCH: More on SNL

By Myles Saturday Night Live was last Fall’s biggest pop culture sensation. With Tina Fey’s Sarah Palin impression saving the show from a weak Obama impression, and Thursday timeslots building the show’s reputation, it built to some of its best numbers ever and its cache went beyond viral intern...

By The Huffington Post News Editors This isn't Al Franken's first Supreme Court confirmation hearing. In 1991 he appeared in an opening sketch on "Saturday Night Live" that mocked Clarence Thomas's hearing and those involved. It featured Tim Meadows as Thomas and Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, Kevin Nealon, Chris Farley and F...

By orfilms@gmail.com (slashfilm.com) Last Saturday Night—as countless unseen choppers flew overhead—a pair of maracas suddenly appeared in the capable hands of host Will Ferrell. Like magic. They gathered: Tom Hanks (on sax!), Paul Rudd, Anne Hathaway, Peggy and fellow SNL vets like Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Norm MacDona...

By The Huffington Post News Editors The sketch follows two party-goers (Andy Samberg and Bill Hader) as they describe the usual suspects at a lame party. While the adjectives are common (motherf**kers, sons of bitches, jokers, what's his face) the visuals are literal leading to the weirdest party-montage SNL has ever put...

By Jesse Unfortunately, yikes, the show went south after that; this was one of the weakest episodes of the season. Cooper was right in the middle of it, not quite as blandly smarmy as he is in most movies, but not displaying the skill you might expect of a Wet Hot American Summer alum, either.

By Justin McCarthy JOY BEHAR: She tripped all over herself to be on "Saturday Night Live," made her trip to New York. Meanwhile she should be on "Meet the Press." She avoids that like the plague. [applause] But to do a little prompter reading "oh yeah, I’ll do that." BEHAR: That’s right. Same with Obama.

By Brent Baker Harder now to ridicule Palin? On FNC, Chris Wallace ended an interview with former Senator Fred Thompson: It may be harder for Tina Fey to mock her on Saturday Night Live, although, Lord knows, they'll try. Lengthier quotes from the post-VP debate coverage on Thursday night, October 2:

By Hartford Courant Word of progress in the TV writers' strike is good news, especially when "Saturday Night Live" is digging further and further back for its reruns. It was so old, the cast still included such long-gone cast members as Horatio Sanz, Finesse Williams, Tina Fey and Rachel Dratch. One featured m...

By Brian I’ve got to add SNL to my DVR, I haven’t watched it in years but there’s more and more funny clips from the show lately. I wonder what kind of ratings NBC is getting on Notre Dame games this season. I can’t imagine they’re recouping their investment, though I certainly have tuned in to enjoy a lit...

By Rob It's an easy laugh for SNL (God knows they need those), but it's a laugh nonetheless.

By Cameron Archer It's funny how hosts of Saturday Night Live earn their reputations. Former SNL director Beth McCarthy-Miller holds Justin Timberlake up as her favourite guest.
