Three posts commenting on SNL with no consideration for those of us
who couldn't watch. Not even a hint or a brief recap. Very thoughtful of you, friends.

18. Did somebody piss in your Wheaties?
I was making a joke about how the state I live in only has the coast line on the south of the state. Geez.

3. Not much to say.
It was pretty lame. Tina Fey was great as usual during the "press conference". Sarah Palin was just...there. The video will be up sooner or later.

4. Okay, okay, okay, here's the breakdown...
Edited on Sat Oct-18-08 10:47 PM by Tallison
Although by the time I post this, someone else will have. It starts with Fey doing a ditzy impression of Palin at a press conference, saying no questions or notes allowed, says some stupid things. Skip to backstage, the real Palin standing with Lorne Michaels. Palin says something like, 'That's not what I'm really like.' Enter Mark Walhberg who mistakes Palin for Fey and demands Michaels tell him where the actor who did the notoriously funny impression of him last week is (Wahlberg apparently was upset over it in RL). Exit Wahlberg. Enter Alex Baldwin, who mistakes Palin for Fey, too, and asks Michaels how he can make someone as nice as Few impersonate such a horrible person as Palin. Michaels tells him it is the real Palin standing there. Palin introduces herself. Alex says, 'You're much hotter than Tina Fey in person.' Palin says, 'Billy is my favorite Baldwin.' Baldwin offers her his arm for a tour of the studio, mentioning that he's hosted the program dozens of times before.

Back at the mock press conference, Fey keeps impersonating Palin as ditz, offers to shown everyone her pageant walk. Palin calls her offstage and approaches the podium. Palin says that while she's not going to answer any questions, she does have a statement, 'Live from New York...'

Palin had almost NO lines, and the Baldwin was her only crack.

Really, really lame.
