If that happens, then that will be the first time that SNL was hit with a show-specific strike Toward the end of January, the union representing post-production workers (approximately 20 part-time film editors, editors, assistant editors & media managers responsible for pre-taped segments) authorized a strike with the hope of accelerating contract negotiations with NBCUniversal's[...]

In the following clip, Ortega appreciates what Please Don't Destroy (Ben Marshall, Martin Herlihy & John Higgins) came up with as an SNL promo idea, but she's not looking to go the "'Wednesday' dance" route again Except… well… let's just say that the trio was really hoping that Ortega would say yes… Image: SNL Screencap Here's a[...]

Yes, the actor, comedian & SNL alum, who was the focus of Netflix's first-ever livestream event – and who brought a year's worth of Will Smith/Jada Pinkett Smith venom with him to the stage When you combine those two, what you have are some seriously high comedic expectations And by the time Kelce, Ballerini &[...]

Joining them for this go-around is SNL cast member Heidi Gardner (who made her love of the Chiefs known at the end of last Saturday's Woody Harrelson-"hosted" edition by sporting a jersey) In the first promo, a little "name game" leads to a confession on Kelce's part Following that, Kelce sees a lot of similarities[...]

As for what didn't work? Well… SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (Image: SNL Screencap) To go sketch-by-sketch would be the written personification of beating a dead horse, so I won't But I referenced the Pascal-hosted episode earlier because I'm still finding it hard to believe that the same cast, writers & production team were behind both shows[...]

Clocking in at a little more that 6-1/2 minutes, the rambling mess included Harreslon looking for someone to give him "SNL 5-Time Host" jacket, a rundown of colors that he likes to show how he's open to all people, a lot of moments when Harrelson kinda felt the need to defend his weed use, some[...]
