Before Conan O’Brien had his own talk show, he got his start as a writer on Saturday Night Live who occasionally appeared on the Variety show. How awkward was the 27-year-old in that 1990 bit?
The reason why I know about that 31-year-old bit is that Conan explained how that led to him appearing during John Mulaney’s Five-Timer Club sketch a few weeks ago. To hear how it all came about, then click here!
Kenan Thompson has been on Saturday Night Live for so long. How long? He took part in his 1,500th sketch yesterday. A record that is going to take a long to catch up to because he has been with the show for 19 years and counting.
Thompson is like a roach. Cockroaches will survive a nuclear war, and he will survive SNL. The show will be cancelled, and he will still be doing sketches.
Back to Kenan, congrats on the achievement. You deserve it and all the good that comes your way!
A few years ago, a fan came up with a dramatic version of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air on social media, and now his dream became a reality on Peacock.
Well, Saturday Night Live thought they would have some fun and get serious with Family Matters. It might have been a joke, but you never know. Urkel could become a reality. I mean, we did get big screen versions of Wayne’s World, MacGruber, and Coneheads. Why couldn’t Lorne Michaels do that? And if he did, would you watch?
Then I started to wonder what other show they could do. I thought Perfect Strangers could be fun. But then I pictured Cousin Larry calling ICE on Balki, and that was the end of that.
NBC asked Miley Cyrus and Pete Davidson to host their New Year’s Eve spectacular from Miami. So I ask y’all, what could go wrong? I am sorry, I meant to write, what can go right?
It is going to be a trainwreck, and I am here for it. Ryan Seacrest will not even be able to compete with their mayhem. I don’t even think drunk CNN hosts will be a match for the craziness that will ensue!
Especially because they are hosting the show in Miami. I assume NBC is avoiding Times Square just in case it gets cancelled by Mayor Bill de Blasio because of the latest COVID-19 variant omicron. We know that Ron DeSantis won’t cancel anything because he doesn’t care how many people he kills as long as he is reelected.
Before Kieran Culkin hosted Saturday Night Live, he appeared on the episode his brother Macaulay Culkin hosted. He looks the same now as he did when he was 9 years old in that 1991 episode.
