This past weekend they replayed the Hilary Swank episode. The first sketch, they were spoofing a cosmetic surgery show on Fine Living. I love when the spoof shows that no one's ever heard of. That's so funny. :arrow:

If that's your least favorite sketch, you've clearly not seen most of the ones that run at 12:50.

Any Weekend Update with Collin Quinn. Some people find him funny. I think his execution is awful. He stumbles over words and has trouble annunciating which makes what would be an otherwise okay joke fall flat. At best I give a half hearted chuckle, at worst, I don't even watch.

A New Yorker that agrees? Thank God. I thought Quinn was heralded as the poster child for all that was good with NY.

Norm MacDonald's "Weekend Update" segment can almost equal or surpass that of Colin Quinn's.

Agreed. For me the difference is that Norm can form a sentence. His jokes suck, but at least he can deliver them.

See, I hate Jimmy Fallon, but I think he and Tina Fey as a team were really good.

Hell yes.


He did alright on his own show on Comedy Central. He just didn't read the teleprompter very well. :lol:

The whole Emilio Estavez episode when pj performs is awful. I'm pretty sure i didnt laugh once during the whole thing. Almost wasnt even worth it.

this whole debbie downer thing sucks. I mean, why do they keep running them. Could someone at SNL please come up with a worthwhile bit. I mean, that is what they're paid for. They're an ensemble and you're telling me not one of them has one single good idea.

I loved the Norm McDonald weekend update. Such a great, dry delivery. He was perfect.

The worst sketch for me was (not sure the name) Horatio Sanz and Fallon as stoners on the webcam, awful.

I also thought the Coneheads and Gilda Radner both sucked hard.
