SNL was pretty much what we’ve come to expect this week: a couple funny bits involving Andy Samberg and Jason Sudeikis floating in a sea of unfunny crap like Kenan Thompson’s Grady Wilson sketch that makes you wonder why the person who thought this should be a recurring character hasn’t been taken out behind a barn and shot (and if no barns exist near 30 Rock, I could build one for the purpose). Anyway, here’s the digital short, James Cameron’s Lasercats 5, with cameo by James Cameron. I think it’s the attention to detail that makes it, with all the James Cameron references and Papyrus font. If I had one criticism, it’s that I wish there were more real cats (but I say that about everything, even my grandma’s funeral). Oh, and at the end, where Lorne Michaels throws them out of his office, someone could say, “You didn’t like it, Lorne? Hey, aren’t you the guy who hired Kenan Thompson?” And then kill him with the laser cat.
[Oh, and here's a Golden Globes drinking game for tonight, though if you're even considering watching the Golden Globes, you're probably drunk off your ass already]


Hey, this is a total rip off of a Star Trek bit called Phazercats Live. Theaving ass Cameron does it again.
Laser Cats never gets old. Never.
But I agree with your call for more real cats. Especially laser kittens.
Oh, and I loved Jason Sudekis’ Letterman impression.
It’s no Norm McDonald Letterman, but it’ll do.
Bill Hader and Rainn Wilson should bare-knuckle brawl in a “loser leaves town” match.
Why? Bill Hader lives in New York, while Rainn Wilson lives in L.A.
Tinseltown.
Patty, please change your picture, I get a raging nerd boner every time I see that girl.
Anyone else think it was weird that they chose the Ting Tings as the musical guest? The band who was last seen in an iPod commercial in 2008? When Vampire Weekend and Spoon both have new albums out?
*sobs into keffiyeh*
Does this mean that SNL is a verified Illuminati Satanist cult peopled by shape-shifting genetic abominations?
That would explain the lack of funny, I guess…
Dammit, Jirish, don’t talk about Little Annie Adderall like that. She’s a prude.
Whatever, that’s what they all say until they smell the chloroform.
err I mean “…until I have a pleasant dinner conversation with them”.
A Hollywood awards show is the perfect follow-up to an afternoon of football. Cleavage and movie clips. Sweet.
“I’d like to dedicate my nipple slip tonight to the people of Haiti…”
I love her so much…
There was a few great sketches, Laser Cats, Lady Darts, and I laughed at the Avatar one. Plus Update is usually good. But if I weren’t a fan of the show, I would have shut that shit off after Kenan’s retarded one note sketch that managed to be eight or nine minutes long. Why do they put stuff like this at the top of the show? It’s always a really bad Kenan or Kristen Wigg sketch that drags on for five or six minutes longer than it needs to be. Are these characters popular or something? Meanwhile something like the Avatar take off was funny and not excruciatingly long.
