8. Not in that skit
but that is his purpose of being scheduled on SNL. He has a movie to plug at some point, though it will probably be a commercial later on in the show.

No offense to Bobby D, but Christopher played it much more maniacally...

52. I couldn't stop laughing!!
You shoulda seen Freeperland, though. They were just bawling their little eyes out with crocodile tears!

One Freeptard said something like "It's gonna be hard to publicly be a Christian now."

And then another one ACTUALLY said, "I wonder when they're gonna start throwing us to the lions."

Because the joke was on the "blue" states. Or rather on the media for concocting such a simplistic piece of bullshit "analysis."

ON EDIT: HA HA

42. like I said... rather...
It was mocking the whole blue/red media invention. The whole concept is a media-created bunch of shit. It's just a way to divide the country. That's exactly what the powers-that-be want. And unfortunately too many people are falling for it. The cartoon was hilarious, but the point was more subtle than you seem to realize.

38. That was funny. But now the segment has rolled off the rails...
... as usual.

I wish they would just stick to spoofing the news. These little skits they jam in to Weekend Update every time just don't work for me. :(

40. Weekend Update stinks now that the Daily Show whips its ass.
Jon Stewart makes this segment useless.

I think they add so many skits now because without it it's just a boring Daily Show.

Maybe that's why WU seems to fall flat so often.

48. Are you serious? That Leviticus guy?
I thought that was hilarious. He's the kind of Christian who worships Extreme Jesus. That actor obviously studied those kinds of preachers; I have met them.

55. He was effective on the Weekend Update Seg
because that format, to me, highlighted the Preacher's inability to be appropriate - kind of like Pat RobberBarronson's 700 Club trying to pass as true journalism.

Only my opinion, though.

51. I enjoyed the show tonight.
DeNiro always seems out of his element when he's on the show, but there was some good material tonight. Of course, Smigel's "liberal elite Santa" cartoon was tops, and even the best Smigel cartoon in a long while.

Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 02:04 AM by Syrinx
If you're being sarcastic or not. :)

But I thought the cartoon was, at least, as much about the "liberal elite" as it was about the "red states." And I'm about as liberal as they come. I hate bigotry in all it's forms.

But then again, I'm bigoted against reactionaries AND prissy elites. Confusing world, ain't it? ;)

61. Yep
they went after both sides in that Santa segment. While on the surface it took pot shots at the "red states" the underlining message showed the right-wing stereotypes of "elite liberals".

Remember that GE owns NBC, so SNL cannot go too far out of bounds.
