LOL, I'm sorry.... but I laughed so hard at the KO parody.. I cried......

It's part of the reason I watch KO, it's entertaining! Come on people, it's funny. Lighten up!

HYSTERICAL!

Affleck totally throwing himself into it -- outrage at the co-op for not letting him move in because he has a cat. Turning around 10 different ways to the camera -- "file footage," etc. A riot!

:rofl:

I Hope Keith has Affleck on his show soon!

me crack a smile. SNL is stale. What a bore. I'm even tired of Fey's Palin impression.

I have better luck at MadTv

The entire skit was hilarious. I'm sure Keith was laughing just as hard as we are and he'll probably provide some clips or maybe even an Affleck interview on his show on Monday.

as worst person in the world...and do it in the same rapid camera angles...;)

I missed it will have to go and catch it on SNL site. Sounds funny.

Please delete!

Sounds like a pretty good show tonight.

So over the top, and Affleck did a fantastic job. I don't think KO could ever be THAT bombastic as Bem was tonight.
k&r

The camera angles during the SC were dead on.

i just didnt think it was all that funny.
i thought the humor was pretty dry.


i was looking forward to the skit, but that was disappointing

:rofl::rofl::rofl::

He talked way too fast, was incomprehensible half the time, and didn't really poke fun at the "real" Keith. Yeah, he did get pissed once because his apartment building got sold out from under him, but it's hard to picture him getting in a fight over a cat. And even with his ego, he really doesn't think so much of himself that he curries praise from other people or brag on himself the way Affleck parodized him doing.

The only parts that struck my funny bone were the reference to "Eric Blair" (he's constantly making reference to George Orwell as Eric Blair) and the way he kept demanding everyone's resignation. Now THAT was the real Keith.

If the argument with his coop board had been over them not letting him put up a satellite dish on his balcony so he could pick up all the MLB games, and he'd gotten into a huge lather over their insult to the great American pastime of baseball...THAT would have had me on the floor.

how will KO get back at Ben?

Your turn, Mr Olbermann : - )))

And I agree - it was great.

I thought if he likes it, I'll like it too.

I barely recognized his version of Keith.

Like most SNL skits these days, they drag them out too long...

I busted a gut. Perfect. Keith would be howling too - he can take a ribbing.

He can take a joke.

And I can imagine KO loving it too! He has a great sense of humor about himself.

only because if he didn't, he'd look like a tightass who has no sense of humor about himself.

Oh well.

Affleck gave a good-natured parody of him. KO has even enjoyed being ridiculed by O'Lielly and others. KO knows that this kind of thing is really a statement on his increasing prominence and along with the humor, he understands that it means he's a force to be reckoned with.

tonight on his special, he mentioned he was there advising Ben...It was really good, he got the facial expressions pretty good...

...on how well known he is.

All completely beside the point. It was poorly done.

THIS is WELL done:

Sandwich guy's script is interesting

but Ben got a lot more of KO's mannerisms into his impression.

and I really think KO needs to get a cat and name it Precious! :rofl:

if he actually HAS a cat named "Precious" :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I thought the whole thing was pretty damn funny.

Hilarious!:rofl:

He is on fire.

or something.

but it's a GOP link. eeewwwwwww, icky.

i watched it anyway, even though it had a Donate to the GOP box on the top of the screen the whole time.

i feel a little dirty and skeeveed...

:rofl:

I thought the impersonation itself was only so-so, but I was actually slapping my thighs laughing during the Special Comment.

"Plus I think he's talking about Al Qaeda which is entirely people from the middle east, not blacks"

"So our president is a racist and an imbecile? Thank you, Mike..."

That was really, really funny.

he is typically on the mark with his remarks...and he does it so well...

:rofl:

:loveya: Keith!

I LOVE KO!

I thought the skit was a wickedly funny parody that had me laughing out loud on a number of occasions. Anybody who was offended by the skit is wound too fucking tight. See your doc about upping the Xanax.

to lose it and had to compose himself.

I cannot imagine KO being offended at all with the skit and probably relished the media attention. He does like to talk about himself - remember the days-worth of coverage of his "Talk Soup" exchanges and the many references he made to Letterman's "big head" comments?

I bet we will see portions of Affleck's skit on "Countdown" this week.

Ben Affleck totally sold Keith Olbermann! I can't wait to see how this will benefit Countdown's ratings!

... not that I think KO is above satire, I just didn't think it was anything like the real KO. The sketch did NOT send chills up my leg.

SNL TOTALLY redeemed themselves with the return of the Target Lady. LOVE HER. Kristen has taken over Maya's role as my favorite SNL star.

"Cherclate!"

I thought it was brilliant. Poor Miss Precious Pretty!

...KO/Ben asked Wolffe whether the GOP and Halliburton were paying him off in oil. He parodied perfectly the way KO leans into the camera and mocks his target while shaking his head with a jeering smirk on his face, LOL!

How about the Richard Wolfe impersonation? :rofl:

esp Richard Wolffe,LMAO

I love KO, love his enthusiasm.

And it had nothing to do with the fact that one of "our guys" was the target. I just didn't think it was all that funny.
