Well that was really nice.
I hadn't heard about the Farley song, so it caught me by surprise. I hafta admit that it choked me up a bit. I was never the biggest Farley fan in the world, but it's really touching to see how much his friends thought of him.I suspected Sandler would do that Farley song. Farley really is just like a folk tale.
I did too, and it was never my favorite back in the day.Almost 25 years since Sandler was on SNL, then he finally gets a hosting gig.
I wonder why this didn't happen a long time ago.
(I thought Opera Man was great)
Admittedly my wife and I enjoyed that too, and we had planned to just FF through it because we both used to hate it. We did FF through that horrible Holes skit though. What were they thinking with that?Almost 25 years since Sandler was on SNL, then he finally gets a hosting gig.

I usually like the Kyle/Beck videos - yeah, they missed on this one.I did too, and it was never my favorite back in the day.
It got dusty in my house when he did the Farley song.
The clothes/holes song was horrible. And I like both of those guys. But that just was never even close to funny.
I agree with all of this. I don't have a great memory for these things, but I'm guessing they just overused Opera Man back in the day?I did too, and it was never my favorite back in the day.Almost 25 years since Sandler was on SNL, then he finally gets a hosting gig.

In Sandler's opening song he referenced being fired by Lorne Michaels. The story was Mike Myers, Sandler, Farley, Rock and Spade were trying to do the show and film movies simultaneously and it was causing problems both logistically and with their relationships with the rest of cast. So, Michaels laid down the edict of not allowing anyone to do outside work during the season. Sandler did not want to leave, he wanted to both, but he had to choose.Almost 25 years since Sandler was on SNL, then he finally gets a hosting gig.

She may have hit a generational tone, like Laraine Newman's Sherry and Hader's Stefon, with Bailey Gismert. Might be too rancid to have much of a shelf life, but she's nailing it.Heidi Gardner is consistently really funny on Weekend Update. Her batting average is better than anyone in the last 10 years, save maybe Hader.
he also doesn't go down on his wife.How the hell is this Khalid guy considered a musical guest, all he does is bring a bunch of other guys to rap while he cheerleads.in the background?
This is beyond terrible

south of the borderhe also doesn't go down on his wife.

It was garbage. Yeah I get it he's one of THE producers in the biz right now, but him on stage yelling into his mike during the other performers' stuff was annoying as hell. Stick to producing, guy. You aren't a performer.How the hell is this Khalid guy considered a musical guest, all he does is bring a bunch of other guys to rap while he cheerleads.in the background?

Par for the course imoOnly funny moment was Colin and Che swapping jokes.

Pulling double duty as musical guest? I am ready to party all the time.SNL announced some hosts. Eddie Murphy coming back.
I wonder if we will get to see Mr. Robinson, Buckwheat or an updated version of White Like Me. I would be happy to see Clarence, the 5th Beatle.Pulling double duty as musical guest? I am ready to party all the time.
Yep. Eddie just never felt any kind of connection to, let alone loyalty to, Lorne Michaels. (He was hired after Lorne quit in 1980, and he left the show before Lorne returned in 1985.)Eddie’s first time back outside the 40th Anniv show brief appearance?
December 21st would make for the Christmas show, and a return of Mr. Robinson's Christmas.I wonder if we will get to see Mr. Robinson, Buckwheat or an updated version of White Like Me. I would be happy to see Clarence, the 5th Beatle.
Would be nice to see cameos from some of his old castmates like Joe Piscopo, Tim Kazurinski, or Julia Louis-Dreyfuss (how ironic that she was practically an unknown back then but arguably is more famous than Eddie these days).December 21st would make for the Christmas show, and a return of Mr. Robinson's Christmas.I wonder if we will get to see Mr. Robinson, Buckwheat or an updated version of White Like Me.

David Spade's infamous joke didn't help matters, but the truth is that Eddie put SNL in his rear view mirror -- permanently -- in 1984.
Leslie used to stumble through every sketch like Horatio Sanz, but she got better.Long Ball Larry said:Leslie jones
she gone
too bad because she definitely had her best season in terms of sketch performing last year, although still not that versatile.
seth Meyers ep from this past season was on last week and I happened to be home. That was a very good one.

There won't be a show without Kate. She plays like 80% of the characters now.Leslie used to stumble through every sketch like Horatio Sanz, but she got better.
At this point I'd rather keep her than Kate McKinnon, who (IMO) has become stagnant.
I don't know... same was true of Kristen Wiig before Kate. A few years before that was Will Ferrell. SNL seems to go through ebbs and flows with these things.There won't be a show without Kate. She plays like 80% of the characters now.
Get ready to pay up then.Eddie Murphy is the man. I'd give anything to have more Trading Places and Coming to Americas.
On Thursday, “Saturday Night Live” (“SNL”) announced three new cast members for its upcoming 45th season, including Bowen Yang, Chloe Fineman and Shane Gillis.
