Justin Timberlake hosted an amazing show! (I incorrectly identified Hugo Chavez as Chilean instead of Venezuelan! SORRY!)

(1,488 posts)Sorry about that. I wish they would make their shows available outside the US. You usually have to find a local comedy channel which carries the show.

(3,811 posts)He's one of the most commercially successful singers of all time.
As a member of the boy band N'Sync, his records sold more than 50 million copies. His solo recordings have probably sold more than 20 million copies. He's done multiple, highly successful world tours as an entertainer. He's won scores of music industry awards including 4 Grammys. He's been successful in film and television, active in charities and philanthropy, etc. etc.

(1,259 posts)Just he was one of those people whose name you always hear but since I didn't follow his music, I had no clue why he was famous.

(29,013 posts)Not one of the sketches really did much for me, not even with the cameos. They were cute but not that well written at all.

(3,300 posts)I haven't watched SNL for years, (not from a conscience decision, just other priorities) but, yes, this is a damn good show, If you don't find the 5 timer skit funny, you either have no sense of humor, or no perspective.
And I don't care what anybody says, Justin Timberlake is a fucking genius, and dismiss him at your own ridicule.

(704 posts)This was not the best SNL in years but it may have been the most painful to watch.
I didn't even smile and frankly, it was hard to watch them dig up the "Wild and Crazy Guys" thirty some years later and trot them out there as older "Tired and Crazy Guys" and expect it would still be funny.
It's almost as though, instead of focusing on making something funny, the producers threw up their hands and said--ah the heck with it--let's just bring back a bunch of old stars and maybe no one will notice, we got nothin'.
The show needs some new writers.
The tofu singer went on waaaaay too long and wasn't funny in the least and they end it with an already burned out "Harlem Shake" bit? SNL---that died about two weeks ago.
SNL is not easy to watch these days. Every now and then they still manage to hit a skit or two but it just isn't worth watching most weekends.
And last night's show was simply the worst.

(261 posts)nothing funny in the script.
The show needs to hire some Youtube comedy writers/performers, because there's hundreds of funny Youtube comedy sketches out there every week. Personally, I watched the show for 20 minutes and fell asleep, watched the rest of it the next morning and regretted having wasted that other 35 minutes.
This stuff NBC is putting out there as comedy is just not funny.
Maybe NBC should abandon the idea of trying to re-invent the SNL wheel and go with something completely new, something even with a more creative name than "Saturday Night Live" since most of the humor on the show is DEAD on ARRIVAL.
