WrestleCrap's Saturday Night Live Season 35 Discussion Thread
TMC
So, we're six episodes in and the general consensus is that this
season is just plain awful, with everyone waiting for December for the
inevitable Alec Baldwin/Steve Martin/Maybe BOTH episode.
Taking a quick look at the season so far . . .
Megan Fox:
Fairly crap, although Fox didn't embarrass herself so much, except for
the monologue, which was just horrid.
Ryan Reynolds:
How exactly do you bring Ryan Reynolds in and not use him? Really?
There was a terrible Family Feud sketch about the Phillips family and
they shoehorned Reynolds into a sketch they did with his now wife
Scarlett Johannson, just awful.
Drew Barrymore:
This should be good, she's done this a few times.
Oh, wait, no.
Other than Andy Samberg randomly playing Scrooge McDuck, just a waste.
Gerard Butler:
Now, this I liked, Butler was actually allowed to be funny, the
sketches actually were about things, AND I think I've watched "What Up
With That" about fifty times, that was some funny random stuff,
particularly James Franco just sitting there for no reason.
Taylor Swift:
Just because Garth Brooks and Justin Timberlake are good hosts doesn't
mean every musician should be allowed to host.
And they let her pull double duty?
Neither Brooks or JT were allowed to do that the first time.
Still, she was shockingly decent, though whoever thought putting her
in that Scared Straight sketch was funny should be shot.
Random Side Note - Wow, but she has some big feet.
January Jones:
She's hot, but dear merciful heavens, that was bad.
Grace Kelly Farting?
Kristen Wiig Hitting on Her?
Just why?
The 1950's party planning was funny, though, as was the last sketch
with her and Sudeikis staring at clouds and her saying the last movie
she went to see was The Wiz, which is just impossible.
And now we have indie-film darling Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
This will either be awesome or wretched.
Share your thoughts on the current season.
And pray for a Baldwin/Martin tag team Christmas episode.
