Posted: 12/8/13 at 12:49pmDoesn't matter. She still brought more depth and shading to it than Underwood.

Posted: 12/8/13 at 12:54pmI assumed using the British accent was to prevent further injury to the thin-skinned star of the special.

#1104Saturday Night Live!
Posted: 12/8/13 at 1:26pmIt's almost as though they did the sketch before they saw the actual performance and just assumed she'd sound like Julie Andrews.

Posted: 12/8/13 at 1:29pmIf she didn't use a Brit accent or, god forbid, had used a southern American one, CU would have tweeted Kate McKinnon needed to find Jesus, her lord.

Posted: 12/8/13 at 2:10pmThe real maria of course didn't have a southern or britssh accent since she was Austrian so its moot.

I thought the Bill Brasky sketch was horrible, myself.

Posted: 12/8/13 at 3:16pmI'm a fan of the rosacea.

Posted: 12/14/13 at 11:59pmOkay, that Goodman/Stallone/DeNiro sketch was hysterical!

As ridiculous as it was, I really enjoyed the courtroom sketch with Goodman in drag, as well. Perhaps it was just the sight of him in that dress...maybe the wig...or maybe that dancing.

I was the same way. I laughed during that sketch. Ever since John played Linda Tripp there is something about him in drag that just cracks me up.

Posted: 12/15/13 at 11:10amA round of applause for the camels ridden by The Three Wise Guys. And the thought of one of the wearing shoes.
#1114Saturday Night Live!
Posted: 12/15/13 at 11:34amThose camels were ridden by Al Sharpton 10 seasons ago!

Posted: 12/15/13 at 11:53amI wonder if the religious right will go nuts over "Three Wise Guys" the way they went nuts over Christoph Waltz's "D'Jesus Unchained" last year.

Posted: 12/15/13 at 11:59amThey went nuts over Gilda Radner and Larraine Newman playing little girls having a slumber party and discussing the cutest movie Jesuses Gilda picked the guy from Jesus of Nazareth because he had "whiter teeth than Eric Estrada's." I believe the network made them apologize.
#1118Saturday Night Live!
Posted: 12/15/13 at 12:23pmI actually thought the monologue was pretty funny - it is not often you hear folks singing about anal on network TV. He and Kennan play well of each other. The three wise guys was funny. But so far, the show is made by Goodman himself.

I guess it all depends whose ox is being gored.
Funny you do not see any sketches making fun of Mohammed. They are to smart for that.
#1120Saturday Night Live!
Posted: 12/15/13 at 12:48pm
Because their audience is so well versed in the stories attributed to Mohammed. Besides they weren't making fun of Jesus Roxy. They were making fun of East Coast Wise Guys. OOOH! But you knew that.
I loved the weirdness and downright creepiness of the dancing snow flake sketch.
ETA: Roxy this was not the first time SNL parodied The three Kings the last time was 11 years ago with The Reverand Al Sharpton as one of the Kings. I am sure Jesus had a sense of humor, more then at times, can be said for you. OOOOOH!

Posted: 12/15/13 at 12:55pmNext week we have Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake. Will we break the record for number of surprise guests and musical numbers?

Posted: 12/15/13 at 1:01pmI am sure SNL next week will be a wonderful Christmas Present. It will herald Jimmy moving to the Tonight Show, Seth's departure for The Late Show. There has not been a read through yet but I am sure there will be lots of treats in store.

Posted: 12/15/13 at 1:10pmBetween his stints as host, appearances as a musical guest and other surprise cameos, how many times has Justin Timberlake been on SNL? Surely the number is very high. It's incredible how much they love him (and rightfully so).
#1124Saturday Night Live!
Posted: 12/15/13 at 1:19pmNot sure, but having worked with him numerous times, I can tell you , he is one of the most kindest, down to Earth and incredibly talented person I have run across in a long time. EVERYONE loves him up there! As you said Liza, rightfully so!
