- Christopher Walken. What the hell is happening? At the same time, however, I wish this monologue weren’t so half-assed by the writers. As of 2020, Christopher has hosted only one additional time after tonight’s episode (which is unfathomable), and that episode breaks tradition by refraining from doing a Continental sketch. Carey Mulligan hosts Saturday Night Live on April 10, 2021, with musical guest Kid Cudi. Nice to see him bringing back his old classics. Wait six months, blow *that* up. — Darrell’s Chris Matthews almost slipped into Dennis Miller territory with his “I haven’t seen a group of people this crazy for blood since the Cobra Kai chased Daniel-San out of the Halloween dance in Karate Kid.” All he needed was a more obscure reference and a “Ha-HAAAA!” at the end. This episode is tons of fun. When asked what musical guest Dave Chapelle wanted, he asked for Wu-Tang Clan. I recall Dean having a website at this time that had audio clips of him doing great impressions, even including Homer Simpson. — Just the mere idea of Christopher being a fan of such a juvenile show like this is hilarious in itself. That stuff’s not gonna happen again.” A truly incredible sight. Both sketches definitely “work”; they just work in a sort of broad, obvious way that made it harder for me to love. It helped me to locate a video clip of a SNL skit that I fell out over. Saturday Night Live Season 28 Episode 13 on February 22, 2003 with host Christopher Walken and musical guest Foo Fighters.

STARS: ****. — Very funny how the show’s crew is inappropriately continuing to play goofy, cartoonish sound effects when Christopher is proudly bragging about his dark, deathly “prank”. Jim Carrey. — All the innocent-but-suggestive-sounding lines about Colonel Angus are a riot. Walken is the star, of course, but it really wouldn’t have worked as well without Seth.

STARS: *****, WEEKEND UPDATE — Christopher, during his apology for one wild thing he once did: “I’m out of cocaine now. Titles Saturday Night Live, Christopher Walken/Foo Fighters. Much like the last time he appeared in a Luvahs sketch, Christopher is getting a lot of the best lines. — Hilarious line from Christopher about a “circle yank”. I’ll admit that I am probably exactly who Stooge is referring to when he talks about naysayers to the Pranksters and Colonel Angus sketches (Stooge and I go way back). With Pranksters, I know the performances are intended to be broad and hammy. Awesome! IIRC every sketch (sans African-American Archives) preceding Update appears on Walken‘ Best Of special.

Required fields are marked *. Can't make it to Atlanta? Assassinate the meat slicers. There is a great interview with Dave Grohl where he talks about the first time the Foo Fighters played SNL and Walken was the host. Both times Horatio was absent, his lack of presence has barely even been noticeable nor has had any negative effect on the show, which proves how expendable he is. — Great line with Continental apologizing for letting his “little head think for the big one”. to (host), murder by tire iron is a hilarious practical joke, — Seth and Kattan are solid at selling the cheesy goofiness of this show. Perhaps, but it should be noted that “The Continental” from Walken’s ’96 episode was written by Tim Herlihy and Fred Wolf, although they got Davis’ permission (per a podcast interview with Herlihy I listened to a long time ago; he also noted that the same thing happened with him later when T. Sean Shannon took over Brian Fellow). — Funny how Jeff is the only character in this entire sketch who catches all the dirty innuendo. Enter your email address to subscribe to this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. — Tonight’s weekly end-of-Update walk-on from SNL writer Eric Slovin has him dressed in a karate gi and proceeding to karate chop Jimmy’s pencil in half.

This will probably be one of the last episodes until a few in ’08-’09 that I will have any real memory of watching live. — Christopher Walken, Will Ferrell, Steve Martin, and Jim Carrey… ALL ON ONE STAGE TOGETHER. I never got why that was such a hot topic. — Jimmy translating Maya-as-Aguilera’s wordless musical vocalizations is reminiscent of the famous Bob Dylan bit that Dana Carvey once did on Update. Foo Fighters performed "All My Life" and "Times Like These (One-Way Motorway)" with Jim Carrey playing Live from New York... it's Christopher Walken! — Christopher is reprising the character he played in the Luvahs sketch from the last episode he hosted, though the role of his lover is now played by Maya instead of the no-longer-on-the-show Ana Gasteyer. — Nice to see that the reliability and popularity of these Hardball sketches has gotten to the point where SNL is now using them as a cold opening. Daniel Kaluuya hosts Saturday Night Live on April 3, 2021, with musical guest St. Vincent. act of Buddy Mills & fellow lounge comic (host) has an air of pathos, — This sketch has officially become recurring.

If the music thing doesn’t work out, Dave Grohl could make a living as an impressionist. By using the site, you consent to these cookies. It’s certainly not enough to ruin this sketch for me, especially considering how brief her appearance is and the fact that she only has one line, but that voice is a very unnecessary aspect of this sketch that briefly takes attention away from the dialogue itself, which is a shame, as the dialogue is what’s driving this sketch.

From Season 28. The band retweeted SNL‘s promo video for the upcoming episode along with the caption, “See you this weekend, Chappelle!” Nicki Minaj - Anaconda. Haha. Cork Soakers will air next season and some people love that one too. — Chris Matthews, to the French foreign minister: “That’s big talk from a country who’s only contributions to world culture in the last 50 years are Gerard Depardieu and that horny skunk!” His appearance tonight is making me realize just how much I miss him in the cast. I’ve developed a better appreciation of these characters when recently reviewing the seasons they regularly appeared in, but of all of the Will Ferrell characters and impressions that SNL could’ve brought back tonight, this isn’t near the top of my list. — Christopher’s backup dancers are being played by extras instead of the female cast this time? Grohl would like to … — Yet ANOTHER killer cameo in tonight’s Update, with us now getting Britn– oh. — An overall charming and pretty fun Walken monologue song-and-dance as always, though this one didn’t have anything noteworthy, unlike his last two monologues, one in which he sang lots of fun winter-related songs, and one in which he danced with each female cast member one-by-one and then danced his way to SNL’s backstage area. Surprised they haven’t assigned him some random Trump staffer to play 10 times a season yet as they have done with all their other classic hosts. (Davis was still alive and well in the final episode that Christopher hosted, which makes me wonder why they refrained from doing a Continental sketch that week.) — Good to see Christopher Walken not only appearing right at top of the show, but in a Hardball sketch to boot. — At the end of the performance, long after Jim Carrey has exited, Dave Grohl acknowledges Jim’s unexpected cameo by saying into the microphone “Thanks, Jim.”, THE RIALTO GRANDE The “Best of Christopher Walken” DVD has what I assume is the dress rehearsal version of the “Hardball” cold open, Walken’s donning a wig in it.

FEITH: Bomb the deli. 19:07 “I Am Probably Getting Closer to Sexuality, Just Because It Seems the Opposite of Self-Pity”—Rick Owens on Today’s Good Morning Vogue. I remember how incredible it felt to see this when watching this episode live, mainly because 1) this was Steve’s first SNL appearance in years, and 2) this was the very first time I got to see a Steve Martin appearance while watching an episode live. — The killer cameos in tonight’s Update keep on comin’, as we now get Will Ferrell! But I’m not here to be a downer. HARDBALL. All clips are from the 8PM dress rehearsal. — Christopher’s parting words, “I must chase after her… for she is my ride”, was hilarious when he said it the last time he appeared in a Luvahs sketch, but it felt unnecessary to repeat this time. Honestly always thought “Colonel Angus” was overrated. — Another magnificent Christopher Walken episode, and the best episode of this shaky season so far. It’s like they’ve been switching personalities, with Tina now being the goofball, unprofessional, giggly, weaker anchor who often does the lamer jokes, and Jimmy now being the professional, straitlaced, deadpan, superior anchor who often does the better jokes. Britney Spears. — A great Steve Martin bit, with him detailing the step-by-step process of his intentionally simplistic, pointless cameo. Browse more videos. As for Colonel Angus, eh. Maybe it’s because I used to drunkenly watch the Best of Christopher Walken DVD over and over (Hardball was the cold open of that collection), but I’ve always loved the exchange: MATTHEWS: What would you do if a deli screwed up your lunch order?

Best story ever.. It’d actually be pretty funny if he introduces them then runs up on stage. — An awkwardly-written and staged ending that only worked because Christopher is the master at selling awkward. A Steve Martin walk-on out of freakin’ nowhere! Jim Carrey “playing his leg like a guitar” was something he first did back in 1985 in the movie Once Bitten. The stars shine in the sky. — A spot-on and pretty funny Christina Aguilera impression from Maya. Playing next. You’re correct that as of today, that is the only time Walken has said Live From New York. — An overall short and intentionally simple monologue with a very careless, “Ehh, let’s get this over with” attitude, which is something that Christopher Walken is one of the few SNL hosts who can get away with making come off acceptable. No Wu Tang Clan, Foo Fighters. Christopher deserved better than this, especially given the epic monologue from his last episode in season 26. And it did. He’s fine. — A pretty amusing spoof of the old cliche about black people yelling at the movie screen. Even then, when I had no real idea of any SNL community, I could feel that Walken hosting was something of an event, and I made sure to watch that night. Remember a few seasons later when SNL inexplicably tries to re-create this classic sketch with fucking Robert DeNiro, of all people?

Not only is Horatio COMPLETELY absent in tonight’s episode, but it’s the second time that’s happened to him in just these past few episodes.

Promo with Christopher Walken and Foo Fighters for Saturday Night Live. I find both Seth and Kattan fine in the Pranksters sketch–they’re not master performances, but they’re not meant to be, and they are exactly what the sketch requires. One of two major episodes of the season (McCain being the other). — A particularly funny line with Colonel Angus requesting to be tapped on the head if he overstays his welcome. [ audience applauds wildly ] You know.. this is.. In this case, he sells himself short – his performance here is the perfect contrast to Walken. Dean actually previously starred as Cheadle in a fake ad in SNL’s “Weekend Update Halftime Special” from earlier this season (a special that served as NBC’s alternative to ABC’s Super Bowl halftime show while it was airing). I can’t remember if he does the creepy-looking camera staredown afterwards in that version or not. Even if Christopher ever makes a hosting comeback anytime in the future, they can probably never do a Continental sketch ever again, as the now-deceased Tom Davis wrote those sketches. They performed their latest single "Sky Is A Neighbourhood' and the staple "Everlong" with a holiday twist... Dailymotion Video Player - Foo Fighters - "Christmas Medley".
