Shy Ronnie 2: Ronnie & Clyde

Amelia McDonell-ParryNovember 1, 2010 //


This weekend’s “Saturday Night Live,” hosted by Jon Hamm, was basically a slam dunk. But my favorite part was the digital short where musical guest Rihanna played opposite Andy Samberg’s “Shy Ronnie” character. Ronnie really needs to exercise that voicebox. Uh-oh, boner alert! Keep reading »

Emma Stone And Andy Samberg Make Funnies

This week’s “Saturday Night Live” should be good. Not only is the musical guest Kings of Leon, whose new album we love, but the host is Emma Stone. This lady got her start on the VH1 reality series “In Search of the New Partridge Family.” And four short years later, she captured our hearts in “Easy A.” Maybe we needed a new redhead to fill the hole left by Lindsay Lohan?

“Saturday Night Live” To Air Second “Women Of SNL” On November 1

Jessica WakemanOctober 8, 2010 //

After a successful ladyflower extravaganza hosted by Betty White last spring, on Monday, November 1, “Saturday Night Live” will air yet another ode to the vag. The “Women of SNL” special will blend both new and old, mixing classic clips with new material from Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Kristen Wiig, Rachel Dratch, Maya Rudolph and others. Yay … I think? I would watch two hours of these ladies clipping their toenails. (Call me, Tina.) But at some point, “SNL” should not need these specials. The show should just have lots of funny women comics and writers all the time. Hire a funny black lady so damn Kenan Thompson doesn’t keep having to wear a dress and lipstick, you hear?

Jane Lynch Bosses Fred Armisen Around

We’re unusually excited about this week’s “Saturday Night Live” since Jane Lynch is hosting. Our favorite cheerleading coach, Sue Sylvester, is sure to shake the lameness out of “SNL” if these hilarious promos with Fred Armisen are any indication. [Best Week Ever] Keep reading »

“SNL” Spoofs Miley Cyrus

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 4, 2010 //


Aside from Kanye’s kick ass performances and a solid opening monologue from the criminally underused host Bryan Cranston (what, no “Breaking Bad” spoof?!), the most recent episode of “Saturday Night Live” was a bit of a dud. The highlight of the show featured newcomer Vanessa Bayer spoofing Miley Cyrus in what I hope will become a recurring skit called “The Miley Cyrus Show.” Her gummy, teen speak-inflected impersonation is scarily dead on.

Kanye Kills It On “Saturday Night Live”

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 4, 2010 //


Kanye West may be an ego-maniacal douchebag, but boy, did he redeem himself musically on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend. Performing “Power” (above) and “Runaway” (after the jump) on a glowing white stage, backed by over a dozen ballet dancers, Kanye killed it. Seriously, Mr. West, STFU and stick to what you’re good at — because when you do, you blow people away. See his other performance, after the jump… Keep reading »

Annika HarrisOctober 1, 2010 //

  • Whitney Port participated in Rue La La’s Live Chat and The Frisky got to ask some questions. Check out the video. [UStream]

Are Amy Poehler And Andy Samberg’s New “SNL” Promos Excellent?

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comSeptember 22, 2010 //


This weekend, Amy Poehler is hosting the season premiere of “Saturday Night Live” while Katy Perry will be shaking off the bachelorette hangover as the musical guest. NBC has released the first promos for the episode, featuring Amy along with Andy Samberg. What, was Seth Meyers too busy for a “Weekend Update” reunion? Mostly, Amy and Andy channel “Wayne’s World,” but they also spend a few seconds mocking Ben Affleck, Blake Lively, and “The Town.” Is it just me, or are these spots kinda random? And, uh, not that funny? Also, when did Andy get glasses? [EW] Keep reading »

Lindsay Lohan To Maybe Host “Saturday Night Live”

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comSeptember 14, 2010 //

We’ve given Lindsay Lohan oodles of suggestions for things she can do to get her career back on track after her stint in jail, some time in rehab, and a possible baby stroller hit-and-run last week. But, apparently, Lindsay doesn’t need our help. LiLo is currently in talks to host “Saturday Night Live” on December 4th. Keep reading »
