"The Biggest Bitch in Washington Is John Boehner"

Hello Sunday. Hello brain cobwebs. And hello all-day pajamas. How was your Saturday night? Missed “SNL,” huh? Cause it’s culturally irrelevant? And because you don’t care who is hosting: “SNL” will always be unfunny to you.

Fair enough. You get burned often enough, not even Tina Fey can draw you back in. Well, what you didn’t miss was another Sarah Palin impersonation, which was for a fairly lackluster skit.

But what you did miss was threefold: 1) Tina Fey has bosom. Lots of bosom. And she flaunted the hell out of it last night. Where was that for the last decade?

The second thing you missed was a pretty decent “SNL” commercial for Duncan Hines’ Brownie Husband, featuring Fey and a very large brownie slash sex object.

The highlight of the night, however, had to be for Fey’s segment on “Women in the News” during Weekend Update, and her awesome tirade against Bombshell McGee. It was pretty fucking fantastic.

Sometimes, I think of Tina Fey. Then I stop, wipe myself, and flush the toilet.
Jesus, what an unnecessary monologue. Ol' Siegheil Tattoo is already enough of a punchline without elaboration -- hell, Sandra Bullock as an Oscar winner is funny in itself (not "ha-ha" funny, just a quiet funny moment; like when a dog gets its head stuck in the bars of a staircase railing).

Dang, I missed that last segment. I tried, desperately hard, to get through the entire thing, but turned the TV off in disgust when that Aunt Linda character started talking. I couldn't watch the Bieber/Teacher sketch, and the Sarah Palin thing was painfully unfunny.

This is how bad SNL has gotten: not even Tina Fey could make me watch the whole thing.

But Brownie Husband was pretty hilarious.

And now that I watch that last segment...ok that shit was pretty weak, but...not a single word against Jesse James, who CHEATED ON HIS WIFE? more than once? Nothing? Fuck off.

I'm with you figgy, weak indeed. A "women's news" segment that talks about women as whores (but not the men) and ends with a joke about waxing. I only caught her bit last night where she was a tiny prostitute. So, is she saying there was ANOTHER whore sketch where she just wore less clothing? Depressing.

I'm sorry; I like Tina Fey but I am not persuaded to start watching SNL again. None of those clips was very funny.

I can relate to the first video, the monologue, and I thought it was mostly funny.

Loved the Brownie Husband.

While I agree that Jesse James deserves to be slammed for being a whore-pig-dog, I don't think it would have fit into the sketch thematically. It was supposed to be about women, so she chose to rant about the Other Woman instead. I'm pretty radfem, but I have to step back and recognize that it is just a comedy skit and isn't supposed to be taken as serious social commentary.

Probably important to remember that she most likely did nearly zero of the writing for the show, which is why it was funny when she was still on it. Yet, last night's SNL did have flashes of its old brilliance.

Sorry...I don't find her that funny. Making fun of someone with facial tattoos is as easy as pushing a gimp in a wheel chair down a flight of stairs.

Then again, I am utterly perplexed how anyone could watch that "30 Rock" show for more than five minutes.

Err...international reader here?

Wow. Steve Martin looks eerily like Tim Gunn. Or vice versa. What if they are the same person?

Sexy woman! She is ever a member of the rich club :::::diamondkissing.com:::::: Many super models also joined that site.☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Are you somehow suggesting that pushing a gimp in a wheel chair down a flight of stairs is somehow not funny? Because that shit is hilarious.

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at April 12, 2010 6:17 AM

I very wise friend of mine once said:

"You know what facial tattoos say about a person? They say, 'I chose to go this far in society's estimation, and no further.' And I suppose if you are okay with that, then so am I. Just please don't spit in my Big Mac."

And not to rail against women, but we all, as a sex, could stand to respect each other a little more. Don't get me wrong; Jesse James is a pig whore, but if we women would have more respect and empathy for how hard it is to be a 21st century girl and how much it takes to make a modern relationship work, we all might be a lot happier.

Love is in the air! People who's common bond is their taller than average height and a personal relationship is their goal. Finding love, dating and romance in real life is enough of a daunting task itself; now throw HEIGHT into the mix and you know what we mean! ____Tallmingle.com____ is the Internet's only true place dedicated 100% to helping TALL singles find their true someone special!
We cater solely to that small niche group of singles who would like to look their date square in the eyes and not the top of their heads OR those TALL people admirers! Many are not as fortunate to be able to stand heads above the rest and prefer to date people who do!

Word, figgy, word.

That show was mostly unfunny with a flash of brilliance with the Brownie Husband commercial. Good thing we have TiVo so we can pass all the unfunny shit.

Posted by: stardust at April 12, 2010 11:43 AM

The only way Tina Fey could have rocked SNL was if she had written the entire show herself, brought Amy Pohler back and the two of them had done the news together. That sad excuse for a show did in no way rock anything, sorry.

Posted by: Az at April 12, 2010 11:55 AM

Yeah, I agree, not very funny (the "news" sketch). There were a couple of decent zingers, but yes, shooting fish in a barrel is not that impressive.

And though I am just a little bothered by the use of the word "whore", I'm not THAT bothered by it.

The truth is, women who fuck guys they KNOW are married are skanky, just because of that. I don't wanna go back to a time when adulterous women were punished and men went on their merry way untouched, but it would be nice if we stopped lavishing attention on someone just because she services a famous guy. And when someone profits (as many of these women now do) from having screwed a famous guy, technically, that does make them whores. So technically, that term isn't wrong. A little harsh, maybe. I'm just tired of hearing about celebrity fucking. If I'm not directly involved in said fucking, I don't care. It'd be nice if no one else cared, either, then I could go the rest of my life without hearing about Tiger Woods' or Sandra Bullock's husband's sexual preferences.

Actually, the dude in the news sketch had the best line.

I'll once again be "Stick up for SNL guy."

Anyone who says the show hasn't been funny since Tina Fey left didn't watch last season, and needs to. This season's been spotty, but in spots stellar. The cast is hilarious; the writing is just inconsistent. And frankly, I never liked the Fey days. Not her fault, I just never really liked the cast in those days. At all, really.

Posted by: ChristianH at April 12, 2010 1:44 PM

Tina Fey does not have "lots of bosom". More than some oiled-up man-pecs, true, which may have been the comparison.

More accolades for figgy and also some props to cc. If this is what a supposed feminist delivering "women's news" looks like, I weep.

Posted by: Amanda6 at April 12, 2010 3:59 PM

I think the reason that Tina chose to scold the woman and not Jesse James is because he has apologized and is trying to accept consequences for his decision. Doesn't make it right, but he is at least showing regret. His mistress, on the other hand, has struck out at critics and comedian Chelsea Handler, opting to defend her decision rather than admit wrong-doing. She has put herself out there for ridicule by choosing to defend her actions which are clearly wrong.
