Live, from New York, it's Saturday Night! (Halle Berry edition)

[Wonk]

[Paragon]

1. I missed the opening skit

...before the opening credits. What was that?

[Wonk]

3. Kobe skit. Wasn't anything special, imho. nt

[uberotto]

7. Are you kidding...

It was hilarious.

When Kobe's wife breaks the vase of water over his head and he says, "baby you know I hate it when you do that".

Then Kobe's wife turns to him and say's "You know what I hate? I hate going to my husbands rape trial".

The skit was that every time Kobe's lawyer came in the room Kobe's wife was all nice and supportive, but as soon as they were left alone, she would start physically and verbally beating the shit out of him.

[Wonk]

8. I guess I'm just not that interested in the whole "Kobe thing" in general

maybe it's just me :shrug:

[Wonk]

9. Now that cell phone commercial skit, THAT was what I call funny!

The "Quick Ones" skit was pretty good too, imho.

[imax2268]

20. in the commercial...

they acted like they were going to kiss...did they...?

her and britney...?

[Lady Freedom]

2. Huh??

What are you talking about??

[Wonk]

4. Saturday Night Live on NBC. It's a comedy show, maybe you've heard of it?

[Lady Freedom]

10. Nope!

But I work for ABC. Sort of.

[Paragon]

5. Talk show parody #8,359,408

The Don Zimmer Show. Oh look, he charged the guests...and fell. Hilarious. :eyes:

[populistmom]

6. Don Zimmer skit on now.

Too funny!

[prolesunited]

11. So how bad does Britney lip synch?

or is it just me?

[populistmom]

12. She looks like she borrowed one of Madonna's 1985 outfits...

Gad zooks, just missing the crucifix and black rubber bracelets.

Sarah

[Syrinx]

13. the only good thing about that

was her butt.

[Paragon]

14. So much for the Madonna rumors

She ain't there. "Me Against The Music" - apropos title, no?

Sounds like a Prince song from 10 years ago.

[peekaloo]

19. Got two good laughs off of her!

At the end of her song when she thanked the audience it was inaudible, which was followed by a Bud sponsorship ad which supported "true music"!

[Paragon]

15. Fred Armistead, only talented guy in the cast

"The Native American comic" on Weekend Update.

[UrbScotty]

18. And he looks like Al Franken, too!

;-)

[mark0rama]

16. Beer-battered communion wafers

from the Cubs fans on Weekend Update.

Funniest thing I've seen on SNL in about a year!

On edit: note to other Catholics: it's OK, they're unconsecrated. They said so.

[Syrinx]

17. sounds like something firesign theatre would've come up with

[Bozita]

21. SNL has become the People Magazine Comedy Hour

I changed the channel after 50 minutes.

"Weekend Update" is now a weak parody of its former self.
