Tom Davis Remembers...Sort of...

The original Saturday Night Live featured the comedy writing/performing duo of Franken & Davis.
That's Al Franken, who is now feverishly trying to become a U.S. Senator from Minnesota and...Tom Davis...he's the guy that was left in relative obscurity. Well, Mr. Davis has written a book about those crazy days...
The reviews are in...and they're not great...here's a sample...
"All the book consists of are the following... Tom did a lot of drugs...He slept with women...He's one of the "original" hippies...He partied with Jerry Garcia and followed the Grateful Dead around...He did more drugs...He occasionally wrote a sketch and did some comedy with some guy named Al...More drugs...Started out bitter, and grew more bitter...Partied with famous people...Did drugs with famous people...Wrote another sketch...Did some bad film work...Then wrote this book."

Amy Bids Farwell to SNL

Amy Poehler really did say goodbye to "Saturday Night Live" on Saturday, less than two months after giving birth to son Archie and several more months after signing a deal for a new "Office"-spinoff on NBC.

Amy was a bright spot on the SNL cast and along with Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph and Rachel Dratch, proved that women are funny...and in many cases much funnier than the male cast members...We'll miss her...

McCain On SNL

John McCain appeared on “Saturday Night Live” last night (alongside Tina Fey as his running mate Sarah Palin) in what can only be described as an odd turn in the presidential election.
The opening night skit (above) featured McCain and “Palin” on the cable shopping channel QVC, with McCain noting that while Barack Obama could afford buying time on three major networks, his campaign was forced down the channel. Cindy McCain made an appearance as well as a presenter.
Perhaps the most awkward moment was when “Palin” announced she was going “rogue” and introduced her line of “Palin 2012” T-shirts (asking buyers to please refrain from wearing them until after Tuesday) and proclaiming that she would would not be returning to Alaska.

Obama on SNL

Overheard at the obligatory SNL after party, a slightly affected Seth Meyers blurted out something to the effect of “…yeah, but just wait til you see what we have cooked up for Obama’s appearance right before the election.”
You may remember that Obama canceled his appearance on the show on opening night because of Hurricane Ike. But sources now say that it could have been a ploy to save an Obama appearance for a date right before the election.
Back in 2000, both Al Gore and George W. Bush made cameos on the last SNL episode before the election. Lorne Michaels recently stated that he expects all of the candidates to make an appearance before polls open. The rumors permeating some political blogs these days is the Democratic candidate Barack Obama will make an appearance on the final Saturday Night Live before the election on Saturday, November 1st.

These Boots Are Made For...

Showing off her gams in a miniskirt and sexy leather hooker boots, Governor Sarah Palin offered photogs a gracious wave hello as she arrived in New York for her appearance on Saturday Night Live carrying her baby boy Trig. more HERE
Whether or not Palin’s performance is befitting someone who aspires to an office in the Oval isn’t the only topic that will be jawed over the water cooler. GOP groupies are sure to be glossing over the leg-baring skirt and kinky black 'fuck-me' boots the candidate wore on Saturday Night Live...more HERE

Mark Makes Up

Mark Wahlberg proved to be a good sport after-all by appearing on NBC's Saturday Night Live last night spoofing himself and plugging his new movie...
At one point it looked as if Mark was going to make good on his promise to "crack that big fucking nose" on Andy Samberg's face in retaliation for Andy's note-perfect impression of him...
Mark played a decent straight man...perhaps we were premature in suggesting he has no comedy chops...
