SNL Weekend Update: Palin/Bush/McCain etc.

Guess I'm late to the party in regards to SNL's weekend update [thanks Bobbito].  This week we see Will Ferrell to his now, nearly trademarked impression of George Jr. I'm always amazed at how well Mark Hamill can do impersionations...eerily good.  The rest of the show is pretty much standard SNL...although the "Jam The Vote!" sketch got me to chuckly with puke humor.

SNL: VP Debate Palin/Biden

I will agree.  Fey does read script better than Palin, but I kind of wish the guy playing Biden would actually replace Biden, because 'actual Biden' is not so hilarious. Why is it always interesting to watch SNL around this time? SNL still blows...in a big way, but I can't help but believe these are the funniest 11 minutes of a hour and a half show.

SNL: Tina Fey IS Sarah Palin

  It’s becoming increasingly difficult to tell the difference between Sarah Palin and Tina Fey. Not even joking. Her parody is that spot on. See original Palin interview video here.

“PALIN”: “Like every American I’m speaking with, we are ill about this. We’re saying, ‘Hey, why bail out Fanny and Freddie and not me?’ But ultimately, what the bailout does is, help those that are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy to help, uhhh, it’s gotta be all about job creation too. Also, too, shoring up our economy and putting Fannie and Freddie back on the right track, and so health care reform and reducing taxes and reigning in spending…’cause Barack Obama, ya know, has got to accompany tax reductions and tax relief for Americans, also, having a dollar value meal at restaurants. That’s gonna help. But 1 in 5 jobs being created today under the umbrella of job creation. That, you know. Also…..”
