Weekly SNL thread

Loved Mick in the Game Show skit and the karaoke thing too. He is really funny. I'm sure he's looking at cue cards- it's just not as obvious as some of the hosts have been- like Lindsay Lohan.

OMFG OFF THE CHART!! The one time i'm glad I'm old enough to have seen Mick, live, back in the hey days!! (1967- 70s). Nothing better!!

[strummergirl]

I loved that rendition of "The Last Time" with Arcade Fire so much.

[supportivemom]

^ Agree! Sounded great live. Mick is such a good sport!

[thetinymagic2]

Amazing Mick! Nothin like an old rock star that can still do it

[Jane2]

Now this show is FUNNY

[romantico]

Mick surprised me and pulled it off. He looks and sounds great. Mick and Jeff Beck were amazing.Have not seen Jeff Beck in years and he looks exactly as I remember him.

I got a little teary eyed at the end. The tribute to Kristin Wiig was sweet. One of the best finales I have seen.

[FindingNamo]

"Lazy Sunday 2," at long last. "Sister Act."

Honestly, Madonna should have gotten The Lonely Island boys to producer her record, that ish sounded gooooood.

[EricMontreal22]

Even with the dubstep break? I thought it was a decent episode with some great moments--the Wiig sendoff was very sweet.

The Foo Fighters sang for two hours at the wrap party in the Summer Garden (Ice rink) Jagger joined them for a couple songs Rockefeller Plaza was freaking Rocking Till 4 AM.

Does anyone have the lyrics to Mick's presidential election song, the one where he warned not to let Mitt "cut your hair"?

[Jon]

Who was the last guy to appear in the "Californians" sketch? He got a big reaction from the audience.

Steve Martin

Looking at this gallery of Kristen Wiig's characters, some good and some bad, made realize that she was a big part of the show. I enjoyed her and she will be missed.

"Yes! and No! Yes and No!"

[beautywickedlover]

Andy Samberg is leaving too.




Andy Samberg will not return to 'SNL'

[SNAFU]

That was kind of old news. The 100th Digital Short was his send off. Hader and Sedakis are supposed to leave however no real "Official" word from SNL has come down. I believe they might return and leave just after the elections.

[beautywickedlover]

^Sedakis is hinting that he is leaving too.


Jason Sudeikis implies he's leaving 'Saturday Night Live' too

[SNAFU]

We will see what happens between now and the middle of September. I believe Sedakis will hang on until after the election. There are tw planned Prime tIme Elections scheduled this fall. I am sure there are negotiations going on and that there will be an onnouncement one way or the other by the end of August.

[beautywickedlover]

Abby Elliott is reportedly leaving the show.


Report: Abby Elliott is leaving 'Saturday Night Live'

[SNAFU]

Meh, Kate will fill up the void.

[beautywickedlover]

The show's first three hosts and musical guests for next season have been announced.

Quote:

In a move Family Guy fans will no doubt find freakin� sweet, Saturday Night Live announced this morning that Seth MacFarlane will host the show�s 38th season premiere on Sept. 15. MacFarlane � who will be promoting the fall premieres of his Fox animated series Family Guy, American Dad (both Sept. 30), and The Cleveland Show (Oct. 7), as well as the upcoming DVD release of his hit talking teddy-bear movie Ted � will be joined by musical guest Frank Ocean.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt will return to host for the second time on Sept. 22, joined by Mumford & Sons, who will be making their SNL debut.

On Oct. 6, James Bond himself, Daniel Craig, will host, with Muse providing the music.

End Quote.


'Saturday Night Live' announces hosts, musical guests

[strummergirl]

Interesting pairings of music and host. Craig and Muse seem the most obvious. Has it been confirmed who are doing the song for Skyfall? That seems like something Muse would do though Adele's been linked as well.

[SNAFU]

Sedakis will be returning.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

For rizzle? Yay!
