SNL 32

Yikes. The season premier of Saturday Night Live does not bode well for the year. The show had been doing pretty well in the past two years, but there wasn’t one funny sketch on last night, though I do have to give them credit for making fun of themselves at the end of the water bottle bit. the references to Studio 60 and 30 Rock were astute, but served to remind me that the two shows about fake SNL shows are going to be better than the actual thing.

The Sasha Cohen “long joke” is great.

Natalie Portman's Rap from SNL This Week

Natalie Portman’s Rap from SNL This Week

Clever: NBC’s offering the hit videos on their own site instead of waiting for other sites to offer them, then suing them. SNL’s in danger of going overboard with these non-live shorts, but so far they’re still funny.

Lazy Sunday on iTunes for Free

Hurray for NBC for doing something really right. Last week, they aired an hilarious rap video called Lazy Sunday by a comedy group called The Lonely Island, which spread across the internet like wildfire within 48 hours of its original broadcast. Mid-week, a streaming copy appeared on the Saturday Night Live website. And now today you can download the video for free from iTunes. NBC could have easily had its lawyers throw around take-down notices to all the websites sharing the clip, but it wouldh’t have actually stopped the sharing, and it would have made the network look like a stupid bully. Instead, NBC did the right thing and gave it out for free. After all, people just share these sorts of things because they think they’re funny and want other people to enjoy them. It’s free advertising coming from your own fan base, at a time when the general impression about SNL for years has been that it’s not funny anymore. In other words, advertising their marketing department could never generate themselves, using the actual product to be sold to show how good it is. Bravo.

This is truly hilarious. Apparently from a comedy troupe SNL’s farming talent from.
