In the wake of the horrible news that Bill Hader is leaving “Saturday Night Live,” we have to admit that we’re having a hard time even focusing right now on the show hosted by Ben Affleck. Are you feeling the same way? Well maybe, the promo below will start to cheer you up a little […]
We were gutted last year to lose both Kristen Wiig and Andy Samberg from “Saturday Night Live,” but this might just be the most painful departure of all. On Tuesday, longtime cast member Bill Hader, who has consistently been an MVP thanks to various impressions and great improv skills, announced that he will be leaving […]
If you want to someday host your own late-night comedy show on NBC, the network is giving you a very clear trajectory of how to do it. Join “Saturday Night Live,” stay on the staff for a while, and then consistently make fun of the network in your comedy act. (Okay, we’re joking about the […]
You’ve waited for it, you’ve probably tweeted about it, and odds are, some of you were probably even watching Kristen Wiig’s “Saturday Night Live” wearing a Gilly wig. There were so many reasons to be excited, but also reasons to be skeptical: Not everyone was a Wiig fan when the woman was on the show, […]
This weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” has every bit of the potential that an edition of this show needs to be roll-on-the-floor funny. Why? There’s only one reason: Kristen Wiig.

While we thought Zach Galifianakis had his best edition of “Saturday Night Live” yet this weekend, apparently the viewers did not exactly seem that enthused to check it out. Overall, this edition of the show drew just a 2.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic, which is a full three tenths lower than the last (and […]
For the first time, we found an episode of “Saturday Night Live” hosted by Zach Galifianakis to be brilliantly entertaining! We’ve know for quite some time that the “Hangover” actor is a very funny man, but there had always been something missing with some of his shows. While not all of them were necessarily hits […]
It’s been a few weeks now since “Saturday Night Live” has been on the air, and when it comes to expectations for this weekend’s edition of the sketch show, this is probably both a good and bad thing. While the primary positive here is clear that the writers have been able to devote some time […]
After a couple of weeks off the air, “Saturday Night Live” is getting ready to enter the home stretch of the season with some exciting choices for their hosts. Over the next three weeks we have a trio of hosts in Zach Galifianakis, Kristen Wiig, and Ben Affleck with plenty of experience already between them, […]
