SNL this Saturday night.

[BreakEvenPlayer]

Host is Napolean Dynamite (Jon Heder), musical guest Ashlee Simpson.

Haven't watched SNL in about two years but I think getting this episode on the Tivo is a good idea. Lot of potential but they'll probably f it up.

I used to watch SNL religiously. I haven't in the last few years because I thought that the cast just went way downhill. When Amy Poehler signed on I thought that it was going to be a great addition because I loved her in Upright Citizens Brigade, but she's been very disappointing. It also seems like the writers are incapable of coming up with anything that isn't some type of bland political humor.

I totally disagree, I think Amy Poehler is amazing. The problem is that every single other person on the show sucks.
The only really good skits in the past 3 years or so are:

1) The Harry Potter skit with Lindsay Lohan
2) The skit where Amy Poehler plays a US Dollar getting made fun of by other currencies

I can't think of any other good ones. But I do think that Amy Poehler has some great characters in bad skits. The one-legged slutty chick rules, as does her character in the hillbilly emergency room.

Besides the characters where he is napoleon-like, I think he will suck.

Hopefully ashlee does more weird hob-goblin dancing.

What do you call Jessica Simpson after getting hit in the face with a frying pan?

I stopped watching SNL when they started doing satire of SNL satirizing SNL.

You've been out for awhile, they've been satirizing that for a couple years now.

Its definitely going to be interesting with Ashlee Simpson back

I'll give her credit for brass. After that Orange Bowl debacle I probably would have SCKM.

well I don't get the Napolean Dynamite fascination at all. I thought it was an OK movie but I certainly didn't walk thinking "wow that lead actor is a comedic genious" or anything.

Let me know when they get one of of the Wilson brother's again or something.
