Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel and Dave Grohl (who has performed with not just his main bands Nirvana and Foo Fighters, but also with Tom Petty, Them Crooked Vultures and Queens of the Stone Age) are the show's most frequent musical guests. Other frequent and popular hosts are John Goodman, Tom Hanks, Alec Baldwin, Christopher Walken, and now, apparently, Justin Timberlake.
Steve Martin has hosted and been in more episodes than some cast members have (and is likely the host that most viewers believe was actually a cast member). Rotating celebrity guests added to the "fingers on the pulse of pop culture" vibe the show reveled in. Often shortened to SNL for ease of reference, the show was specifically designed by its creator, Lorne Michaels (who was once a writer on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In), to showcase young and edgy talent as a direct reaction to the older comedians who dominated prime-time but were fundamentally clueless about the tastes, styles and preoccupations of young Americans circa 1975. After this week’s unfortunate, headline-making photo-op, we have questions - so many questions - which SNL could answer by introducing us not only to the kids involved but also the photographer.Saturday Night Live is a ground-breaking NBC sketch comedy/VarietyShow, broadcast live from New York City in what had been, up until its premiere in 1975, TVs "graveyard shift" slot. No, Not That Wave: Though prom preparations don’t typically include one-handed Nazi salutes, a Wisconsin high school might just step to a different goose. Wanna bet Pops wouldn’t make it to dessert before being told to shut his piehole? But we’d take that typecasting a step further, by aging him by about 30 years and letting “the old man” react to his very liberal daughter’s Turkey Day guests: members of the Central American migrant caravan.
And since Carell’s so often tackled fatherly roles, he’s a given to play the patriarch. Pass the Turkey and the Politics: If tradition holds, SNL‘s Thanksgiving episode will gather a family around the dinner table for some cranberry sauce and awkward political talk. Something tells us that’s a challenge to which they’d, er, rise. Maybe by now they’d be out and proud, rebranded as the Unambiguously Gay Duo, and determined to mend the social divisions in our country. Were the crimefighters to reappear seven years later, we could find out if they’ve changed along with the times. But from 1996-2011, he and Stephen Colbert provided the voices of Ace and Gary, aka the Ambiguously Gay Duo, in Robert Smigel’s cartoons. The Return of Ace and Gary: Some SNL fans might not realize that Carell’s most memorable character on the show even is a Carell character. axing someone at the White House.ĭon Lemon Gives First Sit-Down Interview Post CNN Firing: ‘I Don’t Believe In Platforming Liars and Bigots’

Presumably, this is a “skill” that she picked up from her husband, so if Alec Baldwin’s POTUS returns Saturday, we can easily see him teaching Cecily Strong’s Melania how to fire someone - and, as an added bonus, the difference between sacking someone on The Apprentice vs. Melania Gets ‘Fired’ Up: Since it turns out Donald isn’t the only Trump who’s canning members of his administration these days, we want to know how the First Lady went from making fashion statements to deciding which National Security Advisors to pink-slip. Read on, and see if you agree we’re on a roll…
Actually, we’re not riding a little high, we’re riding so high that we’re halfway to 100 percent sure we’ve also accurately guessed at least the same number of bits that’ll be included in this weekend’s Steve Carell-hosted episode. We’re riding a little high after we correctly predicted four out of five of last week’s sketches (among them, the return of Kate McKinnon’s “Close Encounters”). You’ll forgive us if this Saturday Night Live precap reads as if if was written in enthusiastic italics.
