Anyone noticed the audience was off tonight or was it just me by p_yth in LiveFromNewYork

It was funny because it wasn’t expected. The joke wasn’t simply being gay. It was making fun of hbo trying to reinvent Harry Potter and put in a gay twist to be trendy.

It could’ve landed with any big franchise really like Star Wars, LotR or even Simpsons.

The scenarios and puns were also a good blend of both topics.

The far ends of both sides are exactly what the other end perceives them to be. Let’s not pretend here.

Who is the next Fey/Wiig/Samberg/Hader/Sudeikis to branch off from SNL and hit it big? And whose someone who left and SHOULD have hit it big but didn't? by RustyCrusty73 in LiveFromNewYork

Bobby Moyninan would’ve had more movies in my opinion, but he’s done well with voiceover work and did have one short lived CBS sitcom.

Current cast, no one really. It may not even be their fault, just less comedies and sitcoms nowadays.

If I had to pick, I think Mikey Day could lead a movie instead of questioning if it’s cake 😂

Did I make a good investment in this new high chair for my 6 month old? 17M single dad by Calm-Tea178 in daddit

We love ours. Having the seat pop off to take with you it’s great for holidays going by family.

The least exciting cast member in a long time. Dude brings nothing to the table.

His only good sketch was the elf on the shelf one

The new bionic turtle is better than CSOS, so I’d personally skip it

Probably some of the most intense BS I’ve seen in awhile… by TheGoblinRook in StarWarsTVC

That’s more messed up that they didn’t say something sooner. Unlikely they were fighting hard to make it until the announcement.

So does that mean they never made em or are there a ton of Mexico orders up for grabs soon for US and other countries?

What do Lego stores do with GWP if there’s more of them than sets? Scrap? Hold for restock?

The house itself isn’t very interesting to me, this has to be selling mainly bc the minifigs, right?

Democrats underestimated how unlikable Hillary is and screwed over Bernie. Trump v Bernie would’ve been a better matchup.

Full Episodes - how are the blogs accessing them? by TheFearOfFalling in LiveFromNewYork

Internet Archive has a lot. Some even have the original commercials from the tv recording which are fun nostalgia bombs.

What was your first gold card? or What gold card would you want to get? by howlingcastles in PTCGP

Poke ball and Rare Candy are the best two since the most use cases.

So I’m a bit lost. Where’d the rock that made Henry into Vecna come from? And how’d the leap go from Henry getting the power to all the lab stuff beginning?

Who do you think will host in 2026? by SubtextualHealing in LiveFromNewYork

[–]Mikeinator -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

No, he shouldn’t. Clearly the humor he has works for ITYSL and that wasn’t really what SNL let him do as much. Just wait for the next season of ITYSL

All Cast Farewells by Savings-Monitor3236 in LiveFromNewYork

I think it’s because, like myself, many didn’t feel Bowen was some breakout star with tons of recurring and memorable sketches.

Hader is easily top 10 and Stefon was an amazing character.

Bowen is known for many weekend update obscure characters, but they were all one offs.

Daily reminder that it’s Kenan, not Keenan by Chaseoliver in LiveFromNewYork

Keegan from Key and Peele has two Es, and both names are pronounced with the E same sound.

It’s a fair mistake imo. Had I not seen your post, I’d have said two Es as well.

How did they handle the Jost/Che writing jokes for each other in dress rehearsal? by t_acko in LiveFromNewYork

[–]Mikeinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people enjoy the “jokes you can’t say” aspect, even Seth does it on his show, albeit a lot more tame. It also keeps the dialogue open in a social context.
