All About McCain

I enjoyed both Fey skits and the Bill Clinton skit during Weekend Update last Saturday. But I gotta tell ya, I didn't like anything else. SNL is stinking right now. I got what they were trying to do with the NY Times skit, but I didn't find it funny. And it had nothing to do with the subject matter, it was just dull.

I can't tell if Tina Fey's portrayal of Palin is helping her or obliterating her.

Maybe it's because I've been to/have family in Alaska that I connected with it. I mean, they had me laughing immediately with, "Okay, how many of you don't know how to drive a stick shift?" Seriously dude, NY Times reporters would be toast in two days in Alaska.

But yes, really really crappy writing overall on the show. Except for the final sketch on that James Franco show (the Willem Defoe sketch). That was damn funny and I gotta wonder how much truth there was to it.

Oh, and the Of Mice and Men alternate ending. Hahahah.

She doesn't need Fey's help, she's obliterating herself quite efficiently.
