Members Faulkner Posted September 27, 2021 Members Share Posted September 27, 2021 Not the cast departure I was expecting. (I had to look up Lauren Holt because I couldn’t remember who she was. Basically ersatz Aidy Bryant.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted October 1, 2021 Members Share Posted October 1, 2021 An interesting piece on why SNL cast members don’t leave anymore—our current fragmented, IP-driven media landscape doesn’t offer as many opportunities for post-SNL stardom: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 10, 2021 Members Share Posted October 10, 2021 @Faulknerthanks for tagging me in the thread. I keep forgetting to reply. The cast is very good this season, aside from a few people who won't leave. I wish the writing could match them... @Vee here is Lindsey Buckingham accompanying Halsey on what sounds like a Christina Perri homage, and unintentionally I assume, dressed like '80s Stevie. Nice to see him doing what he does best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 10, 2021 Members Share Posted October 10, 2021 lol I didn't realize that was from her new album (produced by Trent Reznor and sounds like it). Reznor, Halsey and Lindsey are a hell of a combination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 23, 2021 Members Share Posted October 23, 2021 Jason Sudeikis tonight. He was one of my favorite cast members, but I am not going to let myself have very high expectations Please register in order to view this content . We'll see... This cut for time piece is one of the few sharp parodies the show has done in a while (usually their parodies in recent years are soft-focused). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted December 19, 2021 Members Share Posted December 19, 2021 Tonight's SNL - if it airs at all - will not have an audience, will not have a musical guest, will likely be a clip show most of the time, and will not have one half of its Weekend Update team. Should be interesting, if it gets on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted December 19, 2021 Members Share Posted December 19, 2021 The Variety story sounds grim. I can't imagine what the more detailed facts are like. Why risk making the old joke "Saturday Night Dead" literal? I know Lorne prides himself on never stopping but it's not like they're in the Phil Hartman/Jan Hooks/Mike Myers/Dana Carvey, etc. second golden era here. Granted, I haven't given a [!@#$%^&*] about SNL in decades but... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted December 19, 2021 Members Share Posted December 19, 2021 Look, it's only a matter of time before the whole thing becomes wall-to-wall pre-taped bits hosted by Craig Robinson and Sarnoff, the Rapping Peacock. Lorne's just speeding up the apocalypse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted December 19, 2021 Members Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/saturday-night-live-omicron-paul-redd-charli-xcx-1235137830/ quoting pieces of the Variety article: "It’s understood that numerous cast and crew members have tested positive for COVID in recent days" There was widespread speculation on social media on Friday about whether Colin Jost would be seen in his usual role as co-anchor with Michael Che of the “Weekend Update” segment. The New York Post reported that Tina Fey was being recruited to appear on “Weekend Update,” the segment she anchored from 2000-2006. A knowledgeable source said Fey had been approached to “pop in” on tonight’s show but not in the “Weekend Update” segment. A source close to Fey noted that she was already on board for a cameo appearance to tonight to salute host Paul Rudd on his fifth time out as “SNL” frontman, joining a short list of stars who have hosted five times. “SNL” is also known for its famously raucous after-parties. Those gatherings have been tabled for most of this season in a nod to the pandemic, although a few hosts have thrown their own post-show events, as Kim Kardashian did at Manhattan’s Zero Bond in early October. end quote Edited December 19, 2021 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted December 19, 2021 Members Share Posted December 19, 2021 They are off until mid-January. It would depend on how bad things are at that point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
