Social Shane Gillis to host SNL this weekend.

[BIKES!]

Gillis is a lefty so no surprise he may be a closeted racist and said shit in the past. With that said, he is a generational talent arguably already in the top 10-15 of all time

 

[BIKES!]

Double post, how was he on SNL yesterday?

 

[Andy Capp]

i just watched it. I thought it was cringey. He says his dad coaches girls basketball and then waits for laughs as if he told a joke and then says "wow i thought making fun of my bad woudl get more laughs". He then said that he would like to teach 9th grade sex ed and pauses and acts surprised that no one laughed as if he thought that was funny. I like him normally but yeah count me on team he sucked on snl.

He said he looks like he teaches it. With understanding like yours it's no wonder you didn't think it was funny.

I finally got around to watching it last night. There were a couple of off points in the monologue but overall pretty decent; you just expect it to be hit after hit when it's being delivered by a comic so from that point of view it was slightly below expectations.

On the whole the sketches were pretty good, though the game show one was kind of meh.

I could feel it on my couch

I could feel it my plums!

 

[Err]

Where is this narrative that he’s a secret lefty coming from.

He said he looks like someone that would be a coach slash 9th grade sex Ed teacher. And that is what I want to be. That’s my dream

I didn’t misunderstand anything, it’s not a funny joke. I don’t expect hit after hit. But he has 8 minutes on a prominent stage and I would hope he would have better material than what he showed because other than the Down syndrome stuff, I felt awkward for him.

Used to be a place where top talent went? Really? It's always been a place for prospects as far as I can tell. The list of people who became famous only after doing SNL is a mile long.

Eddie Murphy, Chevy Chase, Chris Rock, Robert Downey Jr., Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, etc. ain’t walking through that door these days.

Yeah they probably would and lol at RDJ, like he was some great cast member.

You’re not following the reference. You really think the talent SNL has produced in the last 10 or so years is on the level of the guys mentioned? The Blues Brothers alone is greater than anything any recent cast member has done.

I think in the last ten years there have been really good cast members, and as time goes on it’s becomes harder and harder to stand out because so much has already been done. I think all y’all just have your nostalgia glasses on.

 

[Fluffernutter]

Didn't make the broadcast

 

[USA!USA!]

Didn't make the broadcast

I liked this one. Thought it was better than some of the ones that did make it in.

That’s not SNL those are movies, glad I could clear that up for you.
And only one of those movies is based on An SNL skit.

When’s the last time a regular SNL cast member from the last 10 years made a movie as popular as those?

 

[evergreenrider]

And now Netflix has announced his series Tires will be dropping in May. 2024, the year of the Dawg

You’re comparing movies from the 80’s, 90’s, and two from the early 2000’s to movies now? All of the decades produced way better movies than the last decade. It’s a pretty stupid comparison .

 

[evergreenrider]

Seeing big Phil on primetime TV made me so proud.

I wish Shane went with the gay phile bit, but volunteer assistant high school girls basketball coach on national TV is hilarious to me

So SNL cast members from back then not only made better movies but were vastly more popular?

The movie was vastly different you goon, but I thought we were just talking about SNL .
But the please do not destroy movie was as good as Billy Madison.
