completely agree about the opening monologue. and sure, taylor's "gee-tar" is a little...um, sparkly, but she is a remarkably sweet girl. i'm more of a fan of her songwriting than her singing though.

Yeah, maybe Taylor could write a musical titled "5 to 9."

It's funny because I saw NPH play Mark in California over 10 years ago! And it's sad that I loved that sketch oh so much that I could barely catch my breath. And the Fiddler joke, man that was gold.

It was just a stereotype of middle aged aunts. Single Aunts of America all usually love two things: cats and musicals
I found it funny, because my actual aunt does love B'way, she's who got me started at a very early age :)

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

The sketch was Lame because they used characters from shows already closed or not in danger of closing.
Where was SPAMALOT?
Neil would have killed as Clay Aiken.
Where were the SPRING AWAKENING kids who will never work on Broadway again?
Where was GREASE (lots of jokes there(
HAIRSPRAY?
They went the easy not funny way with CATS, COLOR PURPLE and CHICAGO and WICKED, just not that funny.

Okay, this Frost/Other People sketch is really funny.

That Broadway sketch was hilarious, except I felt like they could have made fun of Chicago more. Kristen Wiig would have OWNED.

Okay, Taylor Swift has an AWFUL voice. Even Britney Spears has a better voice than she does. Godd*mn.

Agreed. Pop stars these days aren't good live.

P.S. Anyone hear the Broadway joke made during Weekend Update? Seth said something along the lines of "Bla bla bla bla Broadway shows closed, a blow to aunts everywhere."
And for people protesting against the unrealisticness of the shows included, get over it. They have to appeal to a mass audience and while I'm sure we would all titter at a Boeing-Boeing joke, the vast majority of SNL's audience is familiar with Phantom, Chicago, Wicked, etc.
Other highlights nobody's mentioned:
-"Revive Miss Saigon?"
-(After Darrell Hammond hit the trashcan lids together)"Still relevant".
-"That's racist..."

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.
