SNL: Legal Shark Tank

[Rhiannon12866]

Celebrities in legal trouble make a pitch to see if any of the legal sharks, Michael Avenatti (Pete Davidson), Jeanine Pirro (Cecily Strong), Alan Dershowitz (John Mulaney) or Rudy Giuliani (Kate McKinnon) will take their case.

1. Cecily Strong

nailed Jeanine Pirro, and Kate McKinnon is always great as Guiliani.

I loved the cold open this week.

2. I had to post this one just for Kate McKinnon as Guiliani!

And I agree with you about Cecily Strong! That woman has the worst voice possible for television - or anywhere else - and she really gets that!

A lot of people don't even remember that Jeanine Pirro had a very short failed campaign here in New York running against Hillary Clinton for senator! She couldn't even make it through one speech where she got her notes all mixed up - I can't believe she went on to be hired on TV!

3. Kate McKinnon is something else. 😆

I don't get to watch every week. Who's the character she plays in the group that gets interviewed. She smokes, talks plain talk, sits spread eagle on her chair. She's a veritable hoot. Doesn't even crack a hint of a smile while doing it. That one gets me. I laugh so hard.

How you be, dear one?

Love ya! 💙

5. She really is an amazing talent!

She can impersonate anyone, any age, gender - I hope that she never moves on to anything else that doesn't make use of her talents!

And I'm tired this week, nodded off earlier, but I woke up just in time to catch the SNL Opening!

7. We dozed on and off in our chairs. Dogga daughter was on the ottoman

and she was having pup dreams doing a faint wurf wurf. 😆

Somethin' in the air? I dunno why some end of a week we're shnockered more than others.

It's gonna rain again today. Blech.

Pleasant nitey-nite. 😴

9. My dog was sleeping, too

He tends to snore. I felt bad getting him off my lap so I could get to my computer. My dog is a lap dog while my cat is not no matter how hard I try...

And at least it's not snowing here - at the moment. I just wish it would get warmer enough here so some of those mammoth snowbanks would melt! Get some good rest!

4. I love Kate.

Literally everything she does is fantastic. She could read a dictionary and make it sound funny.

Maybe I'll get in trouble for saying this. But to my mind it's a shame she's gay. Because otherwise I'd ask her to marry me.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. She has to be just about the biggest talent for impersonations ever

We've discussed before here that we miss her Jeff Sessions, LOL. She can do them all. And she really is quite pretty - but she can play an old creepy guy like Giuliani and make it believable!

[Shemp Howard]

8. It is a measure of her talent...

...that when she impersonates a person on SNL, I sometimes don't know it's her. Then I take a look at the clip on YouTube the next day. And here it was Kate McKinnon all along.

SNL, pay Kate whatever she wants. Don't you dare let her go.

[Rhiannon12866]

10. I'm the same way! She really is a chameleon!

She really has found her niche - no other role could make such great use of her talents. Kenan Thompson is the other one I hope never leaves, he is also very funny - and I was tickled to see Bill Hader back, he's always very funny in whatever he does!

13. Only on Fox

and I think she still owes money for that campaign.

[smirkymonkey]

11. That was great!

I think Cecily Strong is so underrated. She is hilarious!

[Rhiannon12866]

12. With Jeanine Pirro, it's all in that hideous voice and she gets that!

[Gothmog]

14. I enjoyed this skit

[mucifer]

15. I was hoping it would go on longer I really liked it.

[Rhiannon12866]

16. It would be very cool as a regular segment!

It's not like they'd run out of Republicans/Trump allies that need legal help anytime soon! And it's yet another opportunity to see Kate McKinnon as Guiliani!
