The high point of last night's episode of 'Saturday Night Live' (with guest host Jamie Foxx) was probably the Academy Award winner's portrayal of the not-so-popuar Hostess snack, Ding Dong.
Poking fun at the fact that America can't look at writer/director/producer/arrogant-individual Tyler Perry without seeing the 6'5" grandmother that made him famous, last night's 'Saturday Night Live' spoofed his recent foray into drama.
Occasionally 'Saturday Night Live' offers up a sketch that isn't only clever in its dialogue but also in it's absurdity. Good example: last night's 'Dylan McDermott or Dermot Mulroney' skit, in which three guests — who refused to be introduced — appear on a game show in order to dechiper which actor is which.
Kenan and Kel were a beloved comedy team in the late '90s and early 2000s, and went their separate ways about ten years ago. Since then, they've both had solid careers as respected character actors, even if Kenan has been the slightly more successful of the two with his Saturday Night Live work and film appearances.
Unfortunately, Kenan's success apparently means he wants nothing to do with Kel.
It appears that not only is this ever-widening General Petraeus scandal rocking the US military, it's also causing quite a stir in the 'Saturday Night Live' writers room: last night's episode (with host Jeremy Renner) contained several sketches lampooning the General's situation.
New Jersey's governor made his 'SNL' debut to inject a little levity into the hurricane cleanup effort, proving that he has a sense of humor about himself, his home state, and his storm-soaked outerwear.
'The Bourne Legacy' star Jeremy Renner stopped by 'Saturday Night Live' last night to play the admittedly foreign role of comedy host. During one of the sketches, the crew decided to poke fun at another blockbuster Renner starred in this year: 'The Avengers.' Reprising his role of Hawkeye, Renner happily played into the joke that his character was arguably less useful than the others, given his lack of 'super' status.
If the U.S. is sending unmanned robotic drones out on missions to kill enemies, we must officially be living in the future, right? Fortunately the animation style of the new 'SNL' segment 'Midnight Snack' is still stuck squarely in the and '90s.
Jeremy Renner caps off his big 2012 -- in which he starred in blockbusters 'The Bourne Legacy' and 'The Avengers' -- by hosting 'Saturday Night Live' this weekend.
Last night Anne Hathaway gave us a stunning preview of her vocal performance in the movie musical 'Les Miserables,' with a little backup from the entire (already overworked) 'SNL' cast. Hope they're having a great Sunday!
