The definitive ranking of Saturday Night Live’s “What’s Up With That?” sketches
It’s a really absurd Saturday Night Live sketch with a ridiculously catchy song. It also manages to descend into more and more ridiculousness with each new airing. We’re talking about the Kenan Thompson sketch, “What’s Up With That?” Thompson came up with the idea of a talk show host so obsessed with his show’s theme […]
Seth Meyers is returning to “Saturday Night Live” this weekend
Seth Meyers will return to studio 8H and host Saturday Night Live. It’s the first time the Late Night host will join up with the cast since he stepped down as head writer and Weekend Update host to move across the hall at NBC Studios and helm a late night show. But with that being […]
John Mulaney wrote two sketches from this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” almost 10 years ago
Courtesy of Mary Ellen Matthews/NBC It’s no secret that sometimes sketches don’t make it to air when Saturday Night Live kicks off at 11:30pm. Thousands of ideas float in the heads of the show’s writers all the time. Some make it past the table read, some only to dress rehearsal, some make it to the actual […]
King T’Challa showed up on Black Jeopardy on “Saturday Night Live”
Chadwick Boseman, hosted Saturday Night Live this weekend. As expected there would be more than a passing reference to his portrayal of The Black Panther himself, King T’Challa. SNL writers struck a bit of gold when they pitted the T’Challa as a fish out of water by rolling him into their recurring bit, Black Jeopardy.
A little bit of vibranium goes a long way in Chadwick Boseman’s “Saturday Night Live” teasers
This weekend, the Black Panther himself Chadwick Boseman will host Saturday Night Live for the first time. In these promos for the shows Kate McKinnon is giving the host a tour of studio 8H and when there’s an obstacle, the rest of the crew thinks a little bit of the fictitious metal vibranium will go […]
Natalie Portman cannot be rushed in this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” promos
This weekend, Natalie Portman is set to hosts Saturday Night Live. It’s been a while since she’s graced the halls of Studio 8H, ya know last time she was there, she was rockin’ the short hair and hardcore rapping about being a badass. Has she mellowed out since then? We’ll have to wait until Saturday […]
Octavia Spencer hosted “Saturday Night Live” where The Help and Forrest Gump met
If you look at the calendar you’ll realize that Saturday Night Live has only about 5-6 episodes left this season, so let’s hope they make them count. This weekend Octavia Spencer hosted the show. A first time for the actress whose been putting out consistently great work for years now. With her starring in the […]
Alec Baldwin hosted “Saturday Night Live” for a record-breaking 17th time
Here we go folks! Alec Baldwin returns to studio 8H to host Saturday Night Live for a record-breaking 17th time. His first time in 6 years as well. Had this detail happened any other season it might be a bigger highlight because it truly is a remarkable feat. However, with Baldwin practically being a cast […]
Aziz Ansari hosted “Saturday Night Live,” for the first time, and hopefully not the last
There’s an interesting trend happening at Saturday Night Live this season. Their comedian hosts taking reigns of the show directly on the heels of a major political moment. Dave Chappelle had it the week of the election and Aziz Ansari taking it right after the inauguration. While this might be pure coincidence, we like to […]
Felicity Jones hosted “Saturday Night Live,” was the force strong with her?
Felicity Jones, is the star of a little movie called Rogue One: A Star Wars Story perhaps you’ve heard of it. Jones came in and didn’t exactly stake her claim in the evening. Not that she was a bad host, but she didn’t really hold many leading bits in sketches and mostly served as support […]
