I have to agree 100%. First off, I was just getting used to this cast (You
gotta admit they are nothing compared to the Sandler, Farley, Carvey, Myers
era), but they have actually put on some halfway decent shows this year.
Second of all, last week Garth Brooks was hilarious and did an excellent job
hosting so my expcetations were high this week. The last half hour was ok, if
the whole show would have been as good as the last 2 or 3 skits (The Marijuana
skit with Jim Bruer and the guitar playing skit with Chris Kittan) it would
have made for a good show. However, most of the skits were lame and The Party
Of Five skit sucked. What was up with that skit? They had Charlie (Will
Ferrell) in a hospital gown in the kitchen, Claudia wasen't played by Chris
Kittan (Who does a hilarious Kari Strug voice so I figured what was the
difference) she was played by that annoying Cherri O'Teri. The skit was all
about a black guy (Tracey Morgan) who would tell the Salingers about the
problems that were going on, and he would leave saying "I'll go get the car."
The Salingers would wonder who in the hell that black guy was and that was the
point of the whole skit which was boring. To top it all off, they featured the
2 worst skit characters SNL has ever produced, the very unfunny Mary Katherine
Gallagher (Molly Shannon) character, and the extremely stupid Spartan
Cheerleaders (Ferrell and O'Teri). The Reenactment awards skit was long and
crappy. Oh yeah, where in the hell was the weekly cartoon? They didn't even
have Goatboy who is the only funny skit character this year. The Heavy Metal
news anchorman (Jim Bruer) was funny. I'd give the show a definite D+ but I'll
blame it on the writers just like we all do with Party Of Five.

See SNL Producers.... I'm not the only one. Please get rid of the above skits.
Please!!!!!

I enjoyed Scott Wolf's performance on SNL very much, not because the skits
were well written or anything but because we saw him laugh more in one night
of SNL than in a whole season of POF. I like the show Party of Five a lot
but sometimes it makes me sad because the characters spend a lot of time
yelling at each other. I would like it if POF was a little more positive
than it has been.
Well, we at least know that he can play the guitar and knows the lyrics to
a bunch of cool songs. I actually didn't think he sounded that bad when
he was singing...much better than some of the "successful" alternative
singers nowadays...

I'll assume that was a reply to my post. Misinformed? Nobody "informed" me
that they sucked, I came upon that conclusion by myself. Therefore, how can my
opinion be misinformed if its my opinion? (here we go again). This is not
basic facts, its how I feel about the cast this season. Mean-spirited? Ok
writing down how I thought the show went was mean-spirited....oh ok. I thought
Batman Returns sucked is that mean-spirited? nope its opinion.
He most certainly did appear in MANY of the sketches... most of them, in fact.
Unless maybe it just seemed that he was in most of them cuz I was so excited to
be there. :)

But, as for Batman & Robin sucking... You got that right (fact, not an
opinion)...
Oh.. Wait.. You said Batman Returns.. Oh well, same difference.. #2 and
#4 both sucked.... :)

I thought the dialog between "Charlie" and "Claudia" came very close to your
Charlie/Claudia script that you had posted earlier. If the SNL skit had
included your final lines...
Claudia: "Charlie..."
Charlie: "Cancer!"
I would have shouted, "Plagiarism!" Basically, I thought the skit wasn't as
funny as it could have been; you could have done better.

Yeah, when I watched them do this I thought about the various parodies we've
done and read about on this very NG. Made me LOL.

It's like I posted yesterday, it came close to plagiarism. Besides, Blitz's
was funnier. Maybe he should re-post it for comparison.
