Jane Lynch is hosting SNL tonight. :up:
 
Andy Samberg's Kurt was pretty terrible. But the guy playing Finn was pretty accurate. It's too bad that awful ****ing Gilly dragged it all down. :o
 
I only laughed at this: Nice work little orphan a-hole. :hehe:

Other than that the Glee skit fell flat for me. :dry:
 
Well I don't watch SNL much anymore. I saw the season premiere with Amy Pohler and that was incredibly unfunny. :(

But I DVR'd this and it was surprisingly better. Yeah, all the sketches after Weekend Update sucked, but Lynch was a good host and there were some really good sketches before Weekend Update.

Jane Lynch's opening monologue was hilarious and she can really sing! Who knew, considering how much she is autotuned on Glee? "Mom Filter" on Facebook was hilarious, as was Christine O'Donnell's campaign ad. Mom's Boyfriend Talk Show and the Denzel Washington kits were okay! Two additional skits that don't straight up suck is a win for SNL!

As for the Glee skit...I liked it. It wasn't hysterically funny, but I would expect as much from SNL. But the impressions were funny, especially Keenan Thompson as Mercedes and Abby Elliot as Rachel (Fred Armisen was a good Artie, but had little to do). However, the part that was actually really funny was Bobby Moniyhan(sp?) as Kurt's dad defending his "GAY SON!"

The skit was primarily a vehicle for Gilly. And I personally hate Gilly. Like "Target Lady" and every other recurring Kristen Wig character, she is not funny. I freaking hate Gilly. It is a showcase of why SNL goes downhill when this is their idea of a funny recurring character.

So the fact that her crap was kept to a minimum of one "Sorry," this was the best Gilly skit ever, because Gilly was barely in it.

With that said it would have been funnier without her. Still, not terrible and the rest of Jane Lynch's skits before Bruno Mars was pretty good. Yeah, after Weekend Update it sucked, but what did you expect? It is SNL, so there it is.
 
Kristen Wig is one funny lady. :cmad:

But that Gilly skit sucked because it changed everything that makes a Gilly Skit funny. Will Forte as the adult character, and Bobby Moynihan has the kid Gilly tortures. Both elements were missing.

It's kinda like when Mo Collins left MadTV and they still attempted doing Stewart skits.
 
I loved Stewart!
Yeah, so did I. But, Michael McDonald isn't the only reason Stewart is funny. Mo Collins playing his mom is just as important. Without that, the entire dynamic of the sketch is lost.

The only one they did of Stewart that worked for me, after Mo left was the one where Mo's character was drunk on the couch or knocked out.

Who didn't? In the past, I felt that MadTV had some better recurring characters than SNL did.

Let's see there was Ms. Swan, the Vancome Lady, Bunifa Latifah Halifah Sharifa Jackson, Dot, Antonia, Lorraine, Lida and Melina, Depressed Persian Tow Truck Man, and the Reality Check ladies.
 
But back to Glee...!

I Want To Hold Your Hand is my most listened to Glee song, and just made it into my top 25 most played songs on my iTunes. :o

Kristen Wig is a funny lady and is usually a great scene stealer in her movies and one of the most talented people on SNL.

But her recurring characters like Gilly, Target Lady, and Susy Ozman?

Awful.

The reason I liked this Gilly was her shtick was kept to a minimum.

In my opinion.
 
Well, Target Lady is only funny when Justin Timberlake is Peg. LOL


Claaaaaasic Peg.
