Singing Loudly

Tonight is the premiere of Saturday Night Life starring the guest host Ben Affleck. While I don't really like most of his movies, he is a consistently funny guest host. This is added by a monologue with Alec Baldwin who is also an actor I don't care much for but like as a guest host of SNL.

I'm also excited to see Rob Riggle as one of the new talent on SNL. You might remember him from the Upright Citizen's Brigade.

The opening debate between Bush and Kerry was predictable, but I liked the impersonation of Bush. Part of it was the script was really good but voice was pretty solid too.

The commercial parody was lame.

Debbie Downer is always hilarious. I love this skit. Birthday party for Ben Affleck and she brings up stuff like the British being held in Iraq, the Hurricanes hitting Florida. Then they open the gifts and he gets a shitty movie guide which should have ruined the mood. Instead it was Debbie's comment about the death of Gene Siskell. Ben gets a gift from his girlfriend to go to Kenya to see wildlife and Debbie warns to stay clear of Sudan. Oh that trumpet.

The Swift Veterans commercial about domestic issues came next. Taxing more money and dependance on foreign oil were claimed to be discussed during the attacks in Vietnam. Then Kerry ran off after Vietnamese and brought them back to marry two men who were in love. No shooting the people because he's against the death penalty. Of course the video was supported with a lot of silly photoshopped pictures. It still funny at then end when it said: Commercial funded by Adobe Photoshop "When you want the truth...real bad." LOL.
