Rate sketch idea

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Mon, Nov 16

So I was in the airplane getting back from Phoenix earlier last week and flipping through the in-flight magazine I saw this Amish mantle and fireplace...they call it a miracle invention. It says it looks just like a real fireplace, but it looks like a picture of a fireplace up on a mantle. I was chu...

Rate Writers Need Credit

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sat, Nov 14

What I would request is that at the opening of a sketch, in the lower left or right corner of the screen, a writing credit and sketch title be given so those of us who have grown up watching SNL and see it as a great constant in television (and nearly the only constant NBC has) will be able to furth...

Rate All that money and no good writing! WTF?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Thu, Nov 5

Sheesh, if it weren't for bad writing on Lorne-produced things, like "Black Sheep", maybe Chris Farley wouldn't have died. Lorne just kind of seems like an arrogant, megalomanical, or two in the grand scheme of things. Why do we keep letting charlatans like Lorne dumb

Rate Michaela Watkins

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sun, Oct 25

Is Lorne Michaels out of his ******* mind? He gets the funniest woman on his show since Cheri Oteri, & he lets her go after a couple of seasons? No wonder SNL sucks so bad now. When I saw Angie Tempura on weekend update for the first time, I thought, "All right, here we go... SNL is on its way back."...

Rate What time is Weekend Update Thursday?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Fri, Oct 16

TV Guide online does not list Weekend Update Thursdays in its line-up. Neither does Comcast cable. THe SNL website says, 8 p.m. before Parks & Recreation, but all I see is "Community." Can someone please help because I always miss it! Thank you so much!

Rate Online Classes

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Wed, Oct 14

They did a skit and the Phoenix logo, or a close resemblence was displayed; I am a member of the Phoenix online school. It is by far one of the hardest things in my life that I have done; going back to school as an adult, a full-time mother, a full-time care-giver for my dad who is 100% total care no...

Rate Opinion: Building from a Strong Foundation

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Wed, Oct 14

Wiig and Sudekis are extremely strong character actors and impressionists, and accordingly, they've been given a lot of screen time, but unfortunately, they are often stuck with very one-dimensional, go-nowhere sketches. So, seeing as though Wiig is probably one of the most simultan...

Rate Mike Rowe for SNL Host with Howie Mandell

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sun, Oct 11

Howie and Mike on Larry King last Friday night was a riot . An OCD Howie and Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs. Mike would be a host kids would even watch. All ages watch Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe. This is his 5th season 240 dirty jobs. Mike is so many things most people don't know about . An Opera Singer, Articul...

Rate Opinion: SNL = Still No Laughter

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sun, Oct 11

University of Westfield Credit where credit is due, this was the ONLY decent part of the show tonight. How embarrassing is that -- that this was the ONLY thing worth watching tonight?! The mumble at the end by Jenny Slate was great and it was good to see the fringe cast members in on this sketch.

Rate I’m Embarrassed for the Cast

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sat, Oct 10

I’m embarrassed for the cast of SNL. There is such great talent that is being wasted by the writers. Sorry Seth....but you have to step it up. This was one of the worst episodes. You have one of the most talented actresses hosting SNL and you blew it. Did you just get high and drunk all week and say screw it...

Rate Regina Specter

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sat, Oct 10

Wow, I swear I was dead during those two performances. Could they find a more boring musical guest? A lady sitting at a piano singing; I thought this was SNL, not some lounge. What ever happened to good musical guests on SNL? It seems they're so generic and personality-less now.

Rate Script Copy

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Tue, Oct 6

Hey everyone! I'm in Drama class right now and for the final exam we have to say a monologue. I think the Will Ferrell monologue from his most recent gig here on SNL would be hilarious and awesome to do. Anyone know where I can get a copy from it to show my teacher? Thanks in advance.

Rate 10/3 Episode--Really? That's the best you can do, SNL?!

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Tue, Oct 6

I just knew for sure SNL would spoof the many conservatives openly celebrating the loss of our country's Olympic bid!!! I mean, this ultra-patriotic, "Country first" party of "value voters" openly CHEER their country's lost Olympic bid because they do not like Obama? How could you not p...

Rate Darrell Hammond May Be Out ?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Mon, Sep 28

In other SNL news, the show's longest running cast member's name — Darrell Hammond — was missing from the opening credits Saturday night. As recently as last week a rep for the show said he would be back in some capacity, but despite his appearance on Thursday's Weekend Update, he wasn't in a...

Rate If you were in charge of SNL, who would you fire/hire and how would you get it funny again?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Mon, Sep 28

I personally think Lorne should probably move on. I think he's too caught up in making all his other shows work that he can't give SNL the focus it deserves. Keenan would definitely be replaced. He's seems to only be a part of the show so that they have somebody to impersonate a black guy. He was goo...

Rate 9/24/09 - Weekend Update Thursday

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Fri, Sep 25

Weekend Update - Jokes: about the same as always. The Rosie Perez bit was a little flat. Although in the past the guests often detracted from the flow of WU, they have now become the highlights of the WU spot. This time Armisen returns after a quick makeup change for his amusing, if non-pc, portr...

Rate Question about Lawrence Welk Show skits

They have had a few Lawrence Welk Show skits with Fred Armisen on SNL lately, and I'm wondering if the 4 sisters are supposed to be based on real people. If yes, what are their names? I thought I heard Armisen say they were the Mahara sisters, but I googled that name and found nothing.

Rate Amy Pohler's RACIST comments Thursday...

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sat, Sep 19

Shouldn't it it be unacceptable for any politician to yell out at any president of any race (or gender or religion or sexual orientation...) during a speech? Apparently, like you, most of the media believe it was acceptable when such things happened to George Bush, Bill Clinton or any of the o...

Rate In Memorium - Patrick Swayze

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Tue, Sep 15

So many are grieving the loss of the untimely death of Patrick Swayze after his battle with cancer. Please consider posting archived footage of his previous episodes hosting SNL. The Chip N Dale episode with Chris Farley is my all time favorite SNL sketch. It could do us all good to watch and re...

Rate SNL Commercial Parodies

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Mon, Sep 14

I love the commercial parodies. My favorite has to be the one about Annuale, the once-a-year birth control pill. In fact, this site even names it as one of the funniest birth control moment on TV. 6 Funniest Birth Control Moments on TV

Rate Pardo's last show?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sun, May 17

Was it really Don Pardo's last show? He hinted at it while getting inducted to the Balitmore Broadcaster Hall of Fame..SNL should have had a tribute to him. He's been with NBC since 1938. Shows a montage of all the times he's been on camera...re show the skit of the life of Don Pardo...

Rate 5/16 - Paul Rudd and Artie Lange?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sun, May 17

Umm.. totally stupid question but I am hoping some eagle eyed SNL fan can enlighten me.. Did either of them actually appear in any sketches during the show or just randomly walked onto the stage at the end? Did I miss a sketch or two?!? Chris

Rate Justin Timberlake On SNL

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Wed, May 13

So what i s the deal? Jsutin Timberlake was on 5/09/09 and there was a skit called Plastic Surgery or Plasticville. It was rather funny and they have seemed to pulled it from the internet and I was wondering if someone might be able to tell me why. I understand copy rights a little, but am still do...

Rate SNL JUDGE JUDY

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Thu, Apr 30

JUDGE JUDY IS TO LEGAL SYSTEM WHAT THE WWF IS TO WRESTLING (both are fake and only for TV): The joke is very few know about it. (In fact you should have Judge Judy overseeing WWF wrestlers claiming their gig is not fake).

I feel SNL could make this a great skit. Not only are both the shows on NBC but watch and see why... http://www.missuniverse.com/missusa/videos/view/201

Rate Amy Poehler leaving SNL

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Mon, Sep 15

Thumbnail

No matter what happens in November, Amy Poehler's impersonation of Hillary Clinton on Saturday Night Live will be remembered as one of the high points of the 2008 election. Bossy, bouffanted, totally absurd, Poehler's send-up helped earn her an Emmy nomination, the show's first suppor...

Rate Pale Force - suggestions for new episodes?

Original at boards.nbc.com external link    Sat, Nov 25

Some ideas for new Pale Force episodes. 1. Sometimes the Pale Force team might not be able to defeat the evildoers all by themselves. Why not team up someday (not necessarily too close) with Ace-n-Gary (from SNL)? 2. Pale Force plus the Ex-Presidents
