SNL IS TO BE FUNNY AND IF YOU CAN'T TAKE A JOKE THEN YOU ARE A TERRIBLE HUMAN BEING. :) ROCK ON SNL.



I was watching L. Black on the Today show Tuesday night, where he made fun of Oprah calling Obama "the one". Black asked whether Obama would be the one to solve the Matrix.... so how about an SNL skit/ parody of Matrix with Obama as Neo, answering the phone in the middle of the night?

I'm Hillary Clinton and I approved this ad err I mean show. No I don't.

Will SNL hire me after March 4th?

I just want to let you know that your skit about the severly disabled person was highly offensive.

I have a 3 year old with severe cerebal palsy. I am a huge fan of snl......I grew up in NY and always look forward to watching the show. WHile I know that your topics can be controversial, I think that you stepped over the line.

SNL = Hillary stump?

What was THAT? Since when did SNL become drooling Hillary fans? Two weeks in a row we see dragging, not-very-funny skits denouncing Obama and suggesting Hillary is being treated unfair. SNL, you just lost some fans.

Obama Man Can

Blatant Hillary Bias

I don't think it's fair that Saturday Night Live should be using its influence to tilt the democratic primary election towards Hillary Clinton.

Because you reside in the Senator's home town does not give you the right to make decisions that involve the entire nation.

Two weeks in a row sketching about how bad the press is treating poor Hillary? As she conducts one of the meanest campaigns against a fellow democrat this country has ever seen. What a disgrace. You call that comedy?

What happened to the edgy subversive satire of SNL? If you had told me a year ago that SNL would be so blatantly supporting a presidential candidate in its sketches during the primaries I wouldn't have believed it.

I guess you can say you did get a little edgy last week, with your racist cartoon linking Obama to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Another big boost for Hillary. I bet that got a lot tongues wagging over in Ohio two days before the primaries. They must have been popping champagne at Clinton campaign headquarters after that one.

During the writer's strike I couldn't wait for SNL to return. Now I'm sorry it did. What a disservice you are doing to the rest of the nation and majority of democratic voters of this nation who support the another candidate.

The Clinton campaign should put you on their payroll.

NBC should put you on hiatus until after the elections.

SNL POLITICS 2008

POLITICAL CURRENT EVENTS MUST BE ORCHESTRATED SINCE THE LAST TUESDAY'S RACE. IT WILL BE A GREAT SHOW WHEN YOU SHOW HOW OBAMA FIGHTS BACK. LET'S BE FAIR, BECAUSE YOU PLAYED INTO THE HAND OF A MACHINE THE LAST TWO WEEKS. IT IS NOT FUNNY WHEN A MACHINE OUT SMARTS COMEDY AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE MASSES. GOOD LUCK!

Tina Fey should not use her power on the show to so blatantly give free commercial time to Hilary Clinton.

3 Weeks in a row??

Are you trying to drive your target audience away? Yea, we get it...you like HRC...you know what..about half of democrats don't.

Hillary Skits, Not Funny.

How many weeks in a row must we watch this blatant pro-Hillary Barak bashing? You know who your argument is helping? John McCain. You're doing an excellent job of giving the Republican party ammunition against WHOEVER the Democratic candidate will be in November.

Has anyone from you show even looked into Hillary's background and experience? What makes her ANY more qualified for the job than Barak?

st night makes fool of itself endorsing hill and bill

    hey don't you think you are offending at least half your viewers by supporting clinton?  i  for one am not going to watch your show anymore..

Hillary's experiences of getting the call at 3 a.m.

You have got to do a skit on this suggestion by ex-Clinton political strategist Dick Morris before Obama runs a commercial! It will be hilarious. See the end of this article by Morris. http://thehill.com/dick-morris/its-over-2008-03-06.html

Proposed New Opening

Live From Clinton Campaign Central, IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!

Here is a new skit;

Bill and President Hillary are asleep at the White House. Early in the morning, the red phone, next to Bill, rings. Hillary awakes, with cold cream on her face, and says, "who in the hell is calling at three o'clock in the morning"? Bill, "answer the phone". Bill picks up the phone. It's Monica, Bill, can you talk? Then the expression on Bill's face as he looks at Hillary.

END

SNL is SO hypocritical

The media fawns over Obama? Every week SNL becomes "Vote Clinton" comedy night. I love a good satire, but skits, weekend update rants, guest spots for Hill and "thank you" phone calls from Bill are too much. It's only funny when you don't feel like you're being tickled with an obvious political agenda. I'm tunning out for now. And the most ironic part is that I managed to catch all the SNL stumping on Fox News, CNN and MSNBC, again and again and again.

Since you've become a Hillary Clinton campaign branch anyway...

I was reading about Sinbads response to Senator Clintons claims of how Bosnia was an example of her foreign policy prowess under fire. His recollection of the events seem very "different" from hers. Seeing as you folks have become a Clinton media outlet, I was wondering if we could expect some type of skit about the obvious "differences" that apparently exist where Senator Clinton described a war zone and Sinbad described a problem with dining options.

http://blog.washingtonpost.com/sleuth/2008/03/sinbad_unloads_on_hillary_clin.html

I know there's no way you folks would ever step up and give equal time, the bully pulpit is a much easier position, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

I'm finished with SNL

The show that elected GWB with their lampoon of the Bush/Gore debates now throws their misguided weight behind HRC. The show is completely biased.

Later SNL. I'm tuning out. I only hope that about 6 million viewers join me.

What's the Fuss?

I don't know what all the fuss is about.

Week after week after week Hillary Clinton is portrayed as a brilliant experienced leader who but for the tragically unfair bias of American media, would be beating the pants off the big dumb black guy with the blank stare [and minstrel show blackface] with shady secretive connections to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, who, if last weeks opening sketch is any indication, will be the next Secretary of State if the undercover brotha has his way.

By the way, how much are you guys paying David Duke as contributor this season?

SNL wants to be "fair" to Hillary Clinton

According to the Times, Amy Poehler cut a part of their debate skit where "a tear was supposed to come to Mrs. Clinton’s eye." She said, "that's not fair."

WTF? You think THAT'S not fair? Hillary DID cry. And yet a skit with Obama crumbling to pieces, calling Clinton for help, cursing and crying like a complete hack -- THAT'S fair?!?

It infuriates me to think they're talking about being "fair" without a hint of irony. They're gushing over her like school girls and swift boating him.

I'm glad Obama just turned down the offer to appear on the show. I think he's boycotting it. I know I am.

dem election ...

Face it, Tracy Morgan vs. Tina Fey? Which one is together, has a better career, more attractive future prospect, better grip on what is real in America today? Not a contest. Sorry Tracy, you were outclassed before you started.

Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood

Loved Eddie Murphy's take for Mr. Rogers... how about a new version of "AX this ol house"...

IRRITATED ABOUT THIS REPEAT, MOSTLY BECAUSE OF HILLARY

I TUNED IN EXPECTING TO SEE A SKIT ON HILLARY HALUCINATING ABOUT HER BOSNIAN ADVENTURE, BUT I GOT THIS BS. WELL, AT LEASR BILL MAHER WAS ON POINT. IF I WANTED REPEATS THIS FAST I WOULD HAVE RECORDED HGTV OR ELECT TO CHANGE CHANGE THE CHANNEL AND STOP WASTING DVR SPACE. I CAN;T BELIEVE I SET MY RECORDER ON AN HD BROADCAST FOR THIS STALE CRAP. IT'S NO LONGER SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. I'LL USE THE DVR TO BOYCOTT THE ADVERTISERS WHO SUPPORTED THIS BS. I FOR ONE IMMEDIATELY SWITCHED TO MAD TV WHEN I SAW THE SAME HILLARY SKETH THAT I SAW THREE WEEKS AGO, AND BY THE TIME I REACHED ELLEN PAGE FOR THE SECOND TIME, I REALIZED THAT I SHOULD BE PAID TO WATCH THIS. KISS MY BEHIND GOODBYE

shut up

none of you people have a sense of humor. no one is trying to offend anyone. snl is justy trying to make people smile. and FYI they will never be able to make everyone happy especially during the camaign when all of you sorry losers have to get all worked up over some politician that you've probobly never met before. so how about all of you shove it and just let saturday night live do their thing.

Death by Chocolate very bad idea

Since when is killing homeless people funny? Give me a break, it was truly stupid.

how to contribute

Can someone tell me how to contribute to SNL and get paid if my ideas are good enough?

Stop Whining

Seriously what is with all the complaining about SNL? I think this season is hilarious and all their sketches have been appropriate. If you didn't think the skits about the media's infatuation with Obama weren't called for, then you are far too biased towards him...the golden boy. Plus SNL wants to do the least lines possible for Obama (because fred armisen's impersonation is terrible) which means they do skits surrounding Hillary.

As Seth Meyers and Amy Poeler would say, REALLY?!? You're going to boycott SNL for making a political statement? REALLY?!? That is what the show's about and don't throw a fit just because they don't follow the trend of Obama-nation. (P.S. they were totally Obama biased BEFORE the strike, and he even made an appearance, yet no one complained then...)


  • Can't wait for the next two episodes...Steve Carell AND Shia LaBeouf. Enough Said.
