CNN Has Officially Jumped the Shark
October 20, 2008 By View Comments
It’s no secret that mainstream media has somehow managed to feed on its self-perpetuating 24-hour news cycle long enough to make itself almost completely irrevelant, but CNN has finally outdone itself this time.
Alina Cho, presumably one of the most mindless dolts in all of newscasterdom, does a piece on Palin’s appearance on Saturday Night Live and reports on it as if it’s an actual news story. When talking about Palin’s appearance on the show and the “Tina Fey Palin Effect”, Cho actually describes the bit with Alec Baldwin saying, “even Alec Baldwin…is confused”.
I’m not sure who this Alina Cho is but she sounds more like she should be hanging out on the set of The Hills rather than trying to pass herself off as a newswoman of any sort. I guess the upside is that watching this piece with Cho must give the very dumbest among us hope that someday, you too could read something this stupid on CNN.

Sarah Palin and Mark Wahlberg on SNL
October 19, 2008 By View Comments
After watching SNL tonight I have a couple of apologies to make. To be clear, I didn’t watch the entire episode but I did watch the Palin/Wahlberg parts which were pretty much the only ones I was interested in.
First, I’d like to apoligize to Mark Wahlberg for calling him a mary. He actually managed to show up to SNL and make light of the Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals sketch, contrary to his reaction on the Jimmy Kimmel show.
Apparently he does have sense of humor and ended up doing a pretty funny, self-depricating bit with Andy Samberg. Kudos. I underestimated you Mr. Wahlberg, it shant happen again (I’m also sorry because I’m not sure if “shant” should be a contraction).
Now on to Sarah Palin. I was pretty nonplussed when I heard about Palin being on SNL tonight because I thought it was some sort of attempt to take an apologetic stance for the brilliance of Tina Fey Palin these last few weeks. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Palin’s appearance actually seemed to perpetuate Tina Fey’s portrayal of her rather than refute it.
Palin was pure vanilla on the show. She didn’t say anything other than what was on the script nor did she make any attempt to discredit any of the so called misconceptions of her. They even managed to work in Alec Baldwin making fun of Palin to her face.
Granted this was all scripted and was probably supposed to show how good a sport Palin was for taking all this in stride. But to me, it just came off the same way it would have if Britney Spears would have showed up on the show after being lambasted for the past three weeks. Which doesn’t have a very Vice Presidentially ring to it.
So my apologies to SNL, Mark Wahlberg and Sarah Palin. In one episode you managed to reaffirm my belief in the current mediocrity of SNL (aside from Tina Fey), you managed to give me a new found respect for Mark Wahlberg and you managed drive home Tina Fey’s point that Palin is a mindless dolt that is riding this wave of attention like a Paris Hilton at a nightclub. Nobody’s quite sure why she’s there, or why she’s famous or how the hell she gets all the attention but she keeps that idiotic smile and keeps saying stuff that makes even the dumbest among us feel good about themselves.
Not bad for an hour and a half episode that I fast forwarded through in 15 minutes.
Sarah Palin on SNL Tonight: Smartest Move Yet by Republicans?
October 18, 2008 By View Comments
If you haven’t yet, you may want to set your DVR to record SNL tonight as Sarah Palin is scheduled to make an appearance on the sketch comedy show. This of course follows on the heels of the spectacular success of Tina Fey’s hysterical spoofs of Palin in the first three episodes of SNL this season (you can check out the videos after the jump).
It’s no secret that although SNL is notoriously left leaning, producer Lorne Michaels is in fact a McCain supporter. One has to wonder if bringing Palin on the show is his way of sort of leveling the playing field after Fey has completely knocked it out of the park the past few weeks.
I realize that since I just started this blog a week or so ago, adding a poll to it is sort of like adding Closed Captioning to Stevie Wonder’s television but that doesn’t mean I can’t try dammit. I want to know what you think…even if it literally is only you, the one person that actually reads this blog. Please for the love of god vote.
Loading ...Don’t forget to check after the jump for some of the Tina Fey Palin videos that you really can’t get enough of.
Mark Wahlberg is Going to Punch Andy Samberg in His Big Effing Nose
October 16, 2008 By View Comments
Apparently Marky Mark isn’t a fan of satire and doesn’t take too well to being made fun of in an SNL sketch. Last week Andy Samberg did a sketch called Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals. This was Wahlberg’s response on The Jimmy Kimmel Show.
I fucking hate actors that are so into themselves that they can’t take a joke. Hey, you made a satirical sketch about me so I’m going to punch you in the face? Real classy. I’m sure no one threatened to punch you in the face after that farce of a re-make Planet of the Apes, and someone seriously should have.
And since you were so adamant about actually flying to New York and going down to the SNL studios to act on your threat, if in fact you don’t do it, I guess we’ll all have to assume that not only do you talk to animals, you’re also a mary.
