Funniest SNL moment in a while..

Did anyone see it last night? The "debbie downer" skit was just great. I haven't seen them mess up so bad in a while. It doesn't really get going till about 2:10 or so. I just love Horatio crying from laughing so hard and drying his eyes with the prop food.

here it is [windows media]

Woulda been funnier if they had stuffed her into a trash can as they were leaving

\ How does it end? The audio keeps cutting out and then it buffers and eventually quits.

Worked fine for me in wmp on mac (downloaded -NOT streamed). Gee, I guess Microsoft can't handle writing decent codecs that aren't tied to a shitty as OS.

This was really one of the funniest things I've seen on SNL in a while.

I love it when they crack up! Fallon and Horatio are always losing it when they're together. It reminds me of cutting up in class during high school-the more you tried to keep in it the worse it got.

I thought the Harry Potter sketch was funny, too. And, um "enjoyable"

But, man-that sleepover bit was brutal!

When I saw the thread title, I knew it would be that skit. It had me in tears myself by the 4 minute mark.

Make sure you're running the latest version of the official Windows Media Player for Mac. Seems like this has a codec that VLC or MPlayer can't play yet.

The best part is that the skit probably wouldn't have been very funny if they hadn't lost it like that, but as it was, it was hysterical. Gotta agree with jeffyboy, too. The harry Potter sketch was great.

"I have to go out in the woods and tame my dragon."

"Oh, did you get a new pet?"

"No"

One of the funniest parts of the Carol Burnett Show was watching Harvey Korman getting cracked up by Tim Conway. This reminded me of those skits. And make sure to download the file, it just works better that way.

Cracking up before or after delivering a line (as in Conway/Korman/Burnett) is far preferable to not being able to get the lines out at all. Kinda amateurish in parts. But I'm a Johnny Downer.

eh, it was hilarious anyway, for SNL.

Wellesley arms!

I meant to watch last week's episode after seeing the Punk'd with Lindsay Lohan. She really...uh...filled out after filming the remake of Freaky Friday. I totally forgot and went bowling instead though. Heh.

In other news: I can get some pretty mad spin with a 6 pound ball. It's pretty annoying to random bowlers when I start my approach in their lane and not mine.

You: spaz

Even when I go drunk bowling, I manage to sling the 8 pounders in my OWN LANE. . . and I used to be a competitive runner, so I don't have a whole heluva lotta arm muscle.

Slanty boy!

alright I just finished adding links to the Debbie Downer skit and the Harry Potter skit in my blog. Link in my signature. The DD video in my blog is a higher res than the one posted here.
