Ryan and Scarlett Keep the Laughs Coming on SNL

PopSugar — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 11:05:24 -0700

Ryan Reynolds looked hot in his vest and jeans leaving SNL after hosting this Saturday's episode in NYC. He was the host you were most excited to see and his wife Scarlett Johansson ended up popping in for a surprise cameo. The notoriously private couple performed a skit with Fred Armisen, and it was especially sweet when Ryan called her "incredible" and the two shared a high five at the end of the show - video after the jump. Scarlett came out to support her husband of one year but she wasn't the only unexpected guest - Elijah Wood was in the digital short while Madonna and Lady Gaga got into an awkward play-fight during another sketch.

SNL News: Jenny Slate Swears Herself In, Darrell Hammond May Be Out

BuzzSugar — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:30:40 -0700

New cast member Jenny Slate went from virtual unknown to Internet phenomenon on her first-ever episode of Saturday Night Live over the weekend. She dropped a now infamous "F-Bomb" during a biker-chick sketch that had her saying "freaking" about 50 times - you can barely blame her, it's a pretty easy slip, especially for someone new to live TV. Blogs immediately jumped to Slate's defense, but apparently the alarm was unnecessary. She's not getting fired, there won't be a fine since it was after 10 p.m., and Lorne Michaels supposedly isn't upset. Plus, I'd be willing to bet Miss Slate won't be making that mistake again.

In other SNL news, the show's longest running cast member's name - Darrell Hammond - was missing from the opening credits Saturday night. As recently as last week a rep for the show said he would be back in some capacity, but despite his appearance on Thursday's Weekend Update, he wasn't in any of the skits on Saturday. He's been on the show for 14 seasons and accounts for some of the cornerstone imitations - Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and my personal favorite, Sean Connery. Between the loss of Hammond and no more Tina Fey as Sarah Palin or Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton, there's a bit of a gaping hole in SNL's political satire.

So, what did you think of the season opener? There are some exciting hosts coming our way, but the premiere was a bit lackluster for me. Do you think Jenny Slate should face any sort of punishment for her slip up, or is it all much ado about nothing?

In case you missed it, check out the Jenny Slate clip below (language NSFW, obviously) when you read more.

Which SNL Host Are You Most Excited About?

BuzzSugar — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 12:00:06 -0700

Love her or hate her, Megan Fox is unavoidable these days, and we'll see her yet again tonight hosting the season premiere of Saturday Night Live. Most of you aren't that psyched to see her flex her comedic muscles, but the great thing about SNL is that there's always a new host just around the corner. Ryan Reynolds, Drew Barrymore, and Gerard Butler will follow Fox this season, so tell me - which of these hosts are you most excited about?

Meet the New Female Faces on SNL!

BuzzSugar — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 11:30:03 -0700

There are going to be some funny new mugs when Saturday Night Live premieres later this month: comedians Nasim Pedrad and Jenny Slate. The two women will be welcome additions, since this will be the first full season without Amy Poehler. Relatively unknown, Pedrad had a role on ER, and Slate has been on Important Things With Demetri Martin.

Last year's new girls were Abby Elliott and Michaela Watkins, who held their own among heavyweights like Kristin Wiig and Bill Hader, thanks in part to killer Angelina Jolie and Hoda Kotb impressions, respectively.

I can't wait to see what this fresh blood will bring in - the show comes back Sept. 26 with Megan Fox hosting.

Fun or Fail: Movies Based on SNL Sketches

BuzzSugar — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 05:47:24 -0700

It was just a vague little idea before, but now it appears that there very well may be a MacGruber movie on its way to the big screen. The Saturday Night Live sketch spoofing MacGyver works OK in small doses, but I have to wonder how they're going to stretch it into a full-length feature film. In the past they've been able to take a few sketches from SNL and shape them into movies, with mixed results. I thought I'd put it to a vote - which of these SNL sketches-turned-movies do you think are pretty fun? And which are epic fails?
