Saturday Night Live did a segment called Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals and when the NY Post asked him about it he didn’t see the humor in it.
Someone showed it to me on YouTube. It wasn’t like Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin, that’s for sure. And “Saturday Night Live” hasn’t been funny for a long time. They’ve asked me to do the show a ton of times. I used to watch it when Eddie Murphy was there and Joe Piscopo and Bill Murray. I don’t even know who’s on the show now.
Major ouch! I side with Mark Wahlberg on this one because that was not funny. Good thing they didn’t call him Marky Mark or he would have really gone for the jugular.
BTW here is what SNL were parodying.
Tina Fey does Sarah Palin one more time on Saturday Night Live, and this time she takes on the debate. I didn’t think this one was as good, but it was still funny.
BTW am I the only who felt the real debate was ruined for them on Thursday because they kept picturing Tina Fey as Sarah Palin? You know last week’s bit when Amy Poehler says something to her like the more confronted you are the cuter you get and she so did during the debate.
While I love Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live because she really captures her essence. It think that Amy Poehler’s impression of Katie Couric was really dead on, as in Katie Couric’s dead eye expressions whenever she does she interviews or reads the news. Seriously why does CBS keep her around? Are they waiting for the day that she has no viewers, which she is close to doing any day now.
Ever since Sarah Palin took over our TVs, newspapers and magazines we have all said she looks like Tina Fey, and we all wanted to see Tina Fey do her on Saturday Night Live. Well now that Saturday Night Live is back we all got our chance, and Tina Fey does a good Sarah Palin.
NBC is mulling broadcasting Friday night rehearsal sessions of "Saturday Night Live" on the Internet. It’s just one of the many scenarios the digital future could deliver, according to NBC Universal chief digital officer George Kliavkoff, who openly mused about the possibilities Wednesday at the Digital Entertainment Media & Marketing Excellence conference at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles. "Sometimes it’s a lot more interesting than the show," Kliavkoff joked, referring to the closed-circuit footage of "SNL’s" Friday dry runs viewed at NBC headquarters. "It’s something we watch on the cameras at 30 Rock." Opening the window to "SNL" rehearsals might represent a case of art imitating art imitating art yet again at NBC, which already has mined behind-the-scenes happenings at the sketch comedy franchise as comic catnip for the Tina Fey half-hour series "30 Rock" and dramatic grist for Aaron Sorkin’s drama "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip."
