Full Version: Watching SNL vids, a monologue"
NBC > Late Night > Saturday Night Live
Carlapalooza
I was doing my usual "wishful thinking" ritual of clicking on SNL videos and Digital Shorts on the NBC site, hoping to watch but only getting as far as the commercials and lo and behold!....I can see them!! I can really see them! From Canada!!!! Maybe the transborder/international copyright yadda yadda issues have been resolved?
I was so excited I almost peed!

As Mary Katherine Gallagher might say:

My feelings of being able to watch SNL videos from Canada would best be described in a monologue, from the lyrics of the 1972 hit, I Can See Clearly Now, by Johnny Nash - performed by Ray Charles on SNL in 1977 and featured in the 1997 movie Grosse Pointe Blank as well as the 1991 movie Thelma and Louise. A song of hope and courage since overcoming adversity. (Ahahaha!)

"I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin' for
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies"
LOL!!

You should have a big party to celebrate! biggrin.gif I'm serious. Who knows how long this will last so you might as well live it up while you can. Isn't it just great to live in North America?

Now quit posting, and get back to watching videos. tongue.gif

We did celebrate! With some of that American craft beer you guys recommended! (That's a lie actually LOL but the plan is still in the works! (You know, I had the US beer in my hand but got led astray by an odd craving for Smirnoff Ceasars haha))

And the fun just doesn't stop there! The other day, I could only view the new videos but now I can watch ALL the Digital Shorts and vids from older episodes (e.g. Steve Martin heaven). I know this may seem like a minor deal to those who have always had access but I'm like a little kid in a candy store right now. And just like the candy, I'm going to watch way too many SNL videos....until I make myself sick.....until my eyes bleed! LOL! Ewwww...okay, maybe not until my eyes bleed but you get my point, heh? biggrin.gif
