Paul Rudd Energizes Saturday Night Live
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Host Paul Rudd was enthusiastic and energetic on Saturday night -- but it’s pretty hard to be down when the immediate prospect of working with Paul McCartney looms on the horizon.
In what will certainly be dubbed as the “Paul-Paul episode,” Rudd was funny and perfectly on point from the word go. Just listen to his hilarious monologue (featuring a surprise musical guest star) in the clip above.

Robert De Niro, Jeff Bridges and Paul McCartney Headed to SNL
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Last month, Oscar nominee Anne Hathaway fronted one of the most successful Saturday Night Live broadcasts of the season. Will Oscar winners Robert De Niro and and Jeff Bridges be able to keep top that?
During the month of December, we will see some of Hollywood's biggest A-listers take over that NBC stage. Little Focker's De Niro -- who'll be making his third visit to the program -- will kick it all off this weekend with help from musical guest Diddy-Dirty Money.

VIDEO: Cookie Monster Auditions for Saturday Night Live
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Daytime, Late Night, NBC, PBS, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Kids -- let's not try to figure out how this would even work. Cookie Monster wants to be the host of Saturday Night Live and we need to make this happen.
In an attempt branch out "beyond his cookie-eating career," the self-proclaimed "cookie enthusiast" has created the audition tape above to land a hosting gig on the NBC program. In the clip, you can watch the Sesame Street character in a MacGruber-esque sketch ("Macarooner"), a news segment and a musical performance (as Monster Gaga).

Anne Hathaway Takes on Kate Middleton, Katie Holmes on SNL
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Although she didn't do any of her sketches in the nude (as the men of Saturday Night Live had suggested), Anne Hathaway kept us watching this weekend.
In possibly the best broadcast (so far) this season, the Love & Other Drugs star proved she could pull her weight in a number of sketches.
After the jump, watch the Oscar nominee take on Katie Holmes, Judy Garland and Kate Middleton during her second SNL appearance. Is it safe to say she'll eventually be asked back for a third?

It's that time of the week again -- that time when we ask ourselves, "Will this week's Saturday Night Live actually make us laugh?"
As we've learned over the previous years weeks, it's impossible to predict the hilarity of an upcoming broadcast based on the promos alone (how many times have we been let down?) -- but that won't keep us from making snap judgments.
How do you think Oscar nominee Anne Hathaway will do on her second hosting gig? Watch the promos above and make your guesses now!

VIDEO: SNL’s Jason Sudeikis as George W. Bush
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Kanye West and former President George W. Bush (played by Jay Pharoah and Jason Sudeikis, respectively) stopped by SNL’s Weekend Update desk on Saturday to talk about their newfound friendship. The skit was inspired by the real Kanye West’s decision last week to apologize to Bush for suggesting he is racist.
Sudeikis performed ably as Bush, but he’s no Will Ferrell. Pharoah’s Kanye West was pretty good, but it was begging for an auto-tune moment. The skit was one of the more enjoyable of the episode, which starred Scarlett Johansson in the hosting position.

Scarlett Johannson, Anne Hathaway to Host SNL
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Although I wish every weekend could be a Jon Hamm weekend, Saturday Night Live does have to change things up occasionally.
So which stars will we see following Hamm’s third appearance this Saturday? Two more SNL vets.
On November 13, actress Scarlett Johansson – with help from Arcade Fire -- will make her third appearance on the program. (The Iron Man 2 star previously hosted in Jan. 2006 and April 2007.)
Oscar nominee Anne Hathaway will then take the stage for her second time on November 20. Florence + the Machine will provide the musical entertainment that evening.
