my favorite one is when Nick Nolte canceled hosting at the last minute and Eddie Murphy hosted and was still a cast member. He was huge at that point and actually kept the show from being canceled. He said "Live from New York it's the Eddie Murphy Show" the whole cast was pissed at him for doing that.
Jeremy did pretty good on SNL. He kept cracking himself up! And he doesn't do well with cue cards but heck I don't care, he could have just stood there and done absolutely nothing and I still would have watched!!! Didn't know he had such a great singing voice.
I love that story Timebob! Its the Eddie Murphy Show everyone! Perfectly priceless! I bet the other cast members were PISSED. I love it when cast and guests start cracking up a little during funny sketches. Love the Gib Brothers skit with Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake: "Talking it uuuup! On the Barry Gib talk show! Talking it up! Talkin bout chest haaair! Talkin bout crazy cool medallions...!" I learned a great trick from being a drama geek all through high school that or teacher taught us, which was how not to smile or laugh when you're trying to look serious. Just inconspicuously bite your inner cheek or lip and the pain will help you keep a completely straight face. It doesn't have to be much lip or cheek, even a tiny bit can be really painful and helpful in looking serious. It's come in really handy in my dating life when someone's said something unintentionally hilarious and I wasn't supposed to show I was really laughing!
So, who besides me is planning to watch tonight?
ReplyDeleteI'll watch, until I don't.
ReplyDeleteWhat I love about this is the fact that some of them are clearly really excited to finally get to say it!
ReplyDeleteI'm ridiculously excited for tonight!

No Phil Hartman? Loved him.
ReplyDeleteCan't even remember when I stopped watching SNL. I do know that it has not been genuinely funny for decades already.
ReplyDeleteI loved the way fred armiston kept cracking up last night during "the californians"! U almost never see him lose it!
ReplyDeletePhil Hartman was in there! I smiled when I saw him.
