OK I'll start. That was probably the unfunniest SNL I have ever seen. The Indigo Girls skit was painfully bad as was the "Lance can't run" Ironman thing.
SNL
The host really makes a difference. I didn't see this past week, but it seems that SNL saves their better material for when they have a bigger host.
Example - the Catherine Zeta-Jones episode was pretty funny, a week after the cringe-inducingly bad episode with Napoleon Dynamite.

Wow. Thanks for answering my question. Now I'm going to go back and find where I read that….I'm almost certain it was Jay Mohr's book and he was talking about a skit he had written for Bono, but I'm not even 80% certain.

Kelly Clarkson was in a skit as a busker on the subway. Can't remember the guest host, but she wasn't even banging him.
Jon Bon Jovi/Joey Santora and Sting both did different skits but the same subject. They were interviewing two dancers to appear on their video or something, and they would come out to the band song and imitate it by dance ridiculously. I believe Chris Katan was one of the two, those were hilarious.

Pretty funny.

Wait for it……
There you go. That was damn funny.
Originally posted by beetsnotbeats:That was a good one too. Horacio was terrible in his 2-week stint, but his joke about clowns and Cancer was hilarious.

Those two things should never be uttered in the same paragraph.
Neil Young did a cameo as a dope fiend in a skit last Saturday.
However, this was the highlight of an otherwise unremarkable SNL.

However, this was the highlight of an otherwise unremarkable SNL.there were so many reasons that should have been beyond awful, but i'll be goddamned if it wasn't one of the best things on that show in years.
Originally posted by ggwâ?¢:i definitely agree with this. it made me forget how terrible most of the rest of the show was. as bad as the short really was, we found ourselves laughing so much.

Totally agree about the Narnia "rap" video. Ridiculously funny! That new guy has potential to be a stand-out cast member. Same with the other new guy who does spot-on impersonations. He did a great Pacino and an incredible Vincent Price this season.
Is it my imagination or does Rhett look like Neil Young?
