The first time I saw her on SNL, she was playing that character. I was so confused as to why I never saw her in any other skits. I had no idea her hair was fake. It definitely makes her look hotter. I think the wig balances her facial proportions better than her real hair.

LOL - it's funny how her last name is Wiig.

Wiig does look really hot in those sketches.

I find Wigg doing "Astro" impressions really funny.
"Ry-rel-roy..."
had me cracking up.

 

[Don Giro]

Count me in on the "Wiig-as-A-Hole" fan club (I chimed in on this topic with Thi last season). There's just something SO hot about her when she's done up in that character. The very first appearance ("Two A-Holes Buy a Christmas Tree") is still my favorite. It must be the jeans...

 

[Ken_McAlinden]

I would rather see him play every sketch as Bertie Wooster or one of the Blackadder "Georges"

I was pretty disappointed in the John C. Reilly show, but I thought "My Chemical Romance" was great.

Just a reminder: Hugh Laurie hosts tonight, musical guest is Beck.

 

[Alex-C]

Beck f****** rules.

 

[Henry Gale]

In the opening skit last night the camera is close in on a seated Lorne Michaels.
Someone walks up to him with a serving tray and the audience erupts in recognition. But, even though there was plenty of time to get a camera on this person, the director maddeningly fails to do so.
Wonder who it was?
Maybe Hugh?

 

[ThomasC]

I think they were just cheering for Borat.

 

[Hanson]

I thought they were cheering the server as well, but it was Borat taking the stage.

The first good show of the season.

 

[Patrick Sun]

Anyone notice more of the bad directing, like the canned laughter at Hugh's intro just suddenly went from 11 to 0?

I thought the directing was pretty bad in terms of camera angles in some skits, most notably the Queen/Hotel one where they kept staying on the wide shot when Hugh would be saying his lines when it looked like it was intended to use the single cam on Hugh while he read off the cue cards. The wide shot made it totally obvious he was reading cue cards, while the other camera angle made it less distractingly so.

Borat was probably one of the funniest opening on SNL in years. Schwing!

The thermal footage of wind breakage was funny...once.

Smigel's cartoon was okay.

The butchering of the national anthem was a low point.

Weak Weekend Update.

I LOL when Borat started to give Hugh a mock BJ.

 

[MarkHastings]

Yeah; "Weakend Update" for sure!

 

[Citizen87645]

Decent episode. I always get a kick out of Tim Calhoun, though this time he was more creepy than socially awkward.

 

[AnthonyC]

I thought it was really good. Hopefully Seth Meyers just needed a little time to get used to the head writer spot.

Great monologue, great cold open, the return of Tim Calhoun, and two of the best and most innovative musical performances in SNL history. Seriously, hire Beck as a writer for some musical sketches!

 

[teapot2001]

I liked the opener with Borat. Beck was awesome. Needed more Wiig.

[streeter]

I was at the show last night, and indeed, while Lorne was still on-screen everyone started cheering because Borat walked up on the stage.

 

[joshEH]

Having watched Howard Dean and Ken Mehlman on CBS's Face the Nation just this morning after seeing last night's SNL "Hardball" sketch, I can now unequivocally state that it's fucking scary how closely Andy Samberg resembles Mehlman.

I was actually waiting for Dean to shriek, "I'm gonna fight you!" today on Bob Schieffert's show. That would've rocked.

 

[Chris Lockwood]

After Borat it pretty much went downhill.

 

[Jon Martin]

Yeah, Wiig is definitely the best thing about the show now.

Last nights, I thought, was the weakest of the season. Other than BORAT, just not funny.

Beck's puppets were cool, but I still don't like his music.
