Levi Johnston's Mom In Drugs Arrest!

[rp2813]

I don't think Tina Fey would be willing to participate in any post-election Palin skit, and particularly one that involves more than just parrotting Palin for laughs.

No worries about SNL being tasteless. That's a given as they've made fun of disabled and deformed people this season, stooping to lows I've never witnessed in the 30+ years the show has been running, including those with the abominable second set of cast members that nearly sent the show to the cancelation bin. Until the Palin thing came up this season, I had given up on SNL, unable to stomach the lame skits within the show's first 15 minutes and as a general rule, shutting the TV off by that point.

The Fey/Palin thing gave the show a boost but it will likely deteriorate again when they go back into production for the rest of the season. They are in serious need of new writers or the show is toast. They've used up all nine lives and then some over the years and are lucky NBC didn't cut them when they had good reason to in the past. Amy Pohler's gone. Can the entire show be far behind with her out of the picture?

confused

Im confused on the whole SNL thing parody-ing the less than perfect...why is this news? I seem to recall a weekend update
skit involving Chevy Chase repeating the top story of the day aided by Garrett Morris for the hearing impaired.

Our top story tonite...says Mr Chase

a circle appears and Garrett Morris cups his hands together and screames at the top of his lungs OUR TOP STORY TONITE...

and on it went.I thought and still do think it was halarious. Come on people none of us are perfect...we are quickly forgetting how to laugh at ourselves

Time to move on people.............

Wow..alot of judgmental posts here.

I'd like to ask the peanut galley a few questions.

Mind you, I am no fan of Sarah Palin, but how is she responsible for the actions of the mother of Levi Johnston?
Secondly, we can raise our children with every value in the book, but in the end,teenagers do what they want and there is not much a parent can do to stop it.
Trust me, I was a terror as a teenager and had a wonderful and stable home filled with alot of love. I'd like to think I turned out quite well in the end.
I hope only the best for Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin,especially since they will both be responsible for bringing a new life into this world.

Now lets move on from the catty, partisan posts and discuss
something worthwhile.

Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah everyone!

Don't scold a subject you don't like - click the mou

How is this not worthwhile? We all know that it's likely (however tragic) that Ms. Failin will attempt to run for a national political office one day in the no-so-distant-future. It's important that remember exactly who she is and the background of experience, or lack thereof, that she brings to the table so that she can be soundly thumped (again) and sent packing back to the wilderness where she belongs.

Brings up another point, the "Bush legacy tour". As he attempts to re write history, LET US NEVER FORGET what happened. Never.

After all the bullshit lies Palin said about Obama? Sorry Shane,fuuk her and the rest of her white trash family.

On Being Catty And Judgmental: Normally, Shane, I'd be right in there with you on that point. Unfortunately, I have an almost irresistible urge to poke the pious with a sharp stick; especially those whose shtick trades on anti-intellectualism.

Since this particular situation involves someone merely in Palin's orbit, it's almost a 'poke by proxy'. But I'll take that, meager as it is.

 

[sudsmaster]

Until Palin/Fey came along, more often than not I'd fall asleep within the 1st half hour of SNL this season. It just hasn't been all that good, comedy-wise. And since Fey left Weekend Update, even that hasn't been much of a draw.

I hear, however, that Jimmy Fallon is replacing Conan on that late late night talk show, when Conan moves to replace Jay Leno. And then Leno is starting a talk show in prime time, which I hope to miss (I find Leno to be generally mean and unfunny). Remains to be seen if O'Brien can preserve his nutty edgy brand of humor in the earlier time slot - esp. once he's moved from NYC to LA.

As far as poking fun at Palin - well, if she doesn't want to garner attention, negative or otherwise, she should leave politics. It's pretty clear she's not the brightest bulb on the tree.
