What I wouldn't give to have Will Ferrell show up on SNL's premiere...

[VolcanoJen]

... this Saturday.

I'd especially love to see him do the traditional debate skit, striding out to the podium dressed in full fighter pilot regalia.

Wouldn't it be classic?

"It's hard! It's hard to be President! But I'm makin' progress!"

Seth Myers does a great Kerry, but now that we've had Will Farrell, and now that we've lost him, nobody else will ever be able to really do a good Chimpy. :-( I have a feeling Saturday's debate skit is really gonna suck.

1. Is SNL even out of reruns yet?

Calling the show "Live" is a bigger lie than Bush's claims about Iraq.

4. Season opener is Saturday, October 2

:-)

2. Ya just don't know ...

The whole SNL crew is pretty left-of-center now. Tina Fay, who is the head writer, is probably the most politically engaged crew leader they've had.

I wouldn't count Will Ferrell out, either. He's no fan of Bush, and I have a sneaking suspicion that he'll be back at least once before Election Day.

Ben Affleck is hosting the season opener. He's not a fan of Bush, either. And the Freeper crowd hates his guts.

3. i seem to remember

That Will Farrell was at a DNC fundraiser dressed as Bush. He is certanly not a fan of the guy. I hope that he comes on as a cameo!

They have to show "Bush" doing these things:

Chugging Water
"It's Hard"
Staring into space
Scribbling gibberish because JK is taking notes.
Standing on his toes
Trying to discreetly look over to see what JK wrote
"Don't forget Poland"

5. I'd also love to hear Farrell's pronunciation of "Vladimir" Putin's name.

How did Bush say that... "Vlad-uh-mer"?

6. LOL

Yes he was so *proud* of himself.

It was like the obnoxious little brat in first grade who found out the teachers name.

9. Farrell recently mentioned that if he were still on SNL and playing Bush..

.. he would have dressed in a fighter pilot costume for every single skit. Wouldn't that just be priceless?

"Don't forget Poland!" LMAO!!

7. "Presidentn's hard."

8. You haven't mentioned my favorite Ferrell/bush moment...

(In a high, whining voice of anguish once he realizes that presidentin's hard):

WHERE ARE ALL THE GROWNUPS?!
