Llama on SNL
No, I don't mean the animal.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: Llama on SNL
I don't know what you mean, Bob. I watched SNL, and I saw a llama in the background early in the show. Later on, there was a donkey. I played the show again on the DVR, and they both looked like real animals.

Re: Llama on SNL
What's the difference between Governor Palin and Bob J?
She's still relevant and has a job.*
*See, anything can be fair game if you really want to go down this road. It's beneath you to do so. Did you make the same comments when Gore, Clinton x 2, or any other candidate appeared on SNL? No, only one person that I'm pretty sure you've never met and don't know.

Re: Llama on SNL
All sniping aside, I still don't understand this thread.
Did Governor Palin appear on SNL last night or not?

Re: Llama on SNL
Yes.
And she did a good job of being funny and good natured about the whole thing.
The opening skit had Fey playing Palin, being told by Alec Baldwin that Palin was there, Fey scurries off, passing Palin.
The resemblance (sp?) is uncanny.
Pretty decent show actually.

Re: Llama on SNL
SNL did good by Palin, even to where she was standing.
In her scene with Michaels and Baldwin, she was in the center of the shot, directly facing the camera. The cue cards are held directly beneath the camera. Because Michaels and Baldwin were off-center, it was obvious they were reading from the cards, as they either had to turn their heads or eyes to read the cards. Since she was center stage, she looked more natural.

I am about 25% sure of this.

Re: Llama on SNL
I missed this, I was still out and just checked the Rays-Sox score before going to bed.
I guess it wasn't a WWTBAM parody as I would have guessed from the first post. Tina Fey said "I'd like to use one of my lifelines" during her interview gag w/ Amy Poehler. Before that, the last WWTBAM parody I saw was a picture of Idol's David Archuleta with Phone-a-Dad as a lifeline.

Re: Llama on SNL
I still don't get the cryptic comment about a llama on SNL. If that was intended to be a reference to Palin's performance, it makes no sense, since Bob posted it before the show actually happened.
I thought Palin was adequate in the role they created for her. Unlike most guests, she probably had only a few hours to rehearse and prepare, so they couldn't try anything very ambitious.

However, for the few lines she had, she was much better tha Baldwin. Much.

I call BS. Only after you're chastised by those normally supportive of you do you come back with the "poor joke" attempt.Bob Juch wrote:

Put in context with your absolutely over the top, visceral hatred of McCain, and, especially, Palin, in every political thread ever run and you meant it exactly as you posted it.
You won't even stand your ground for your opening of the thread.
You were shown to be wrong.

I thought Governor Palin did a fine job. The visual of her and Seth Meyers dancing in their seats while Amy Pohler rapped during Weekend Update was pretty funny.
I also enjoyed the Mark Wahlberg appearance, after his comments about not liking Andy Samberg's imitation.
I could have done without the Fartface sketch but, a pretty funny show.
