    In reply to Saturday Night Special
    By the way, #SNL has some seriously horrendous hosts lined up for the next few weeks, so I expect lots of liveblogging in #SNS. Next week is Blake Lively, followed by Taylor Lautner(!!), followed by James Franco (who I respect for the whole soap thing, but seriously?), followed by Jay Baruchel, who I'm not sure has ever had more than four lines in any given movie. WTF?

    @DahlELama: One thing to remember about SNL. It's not about the quality but the PR. SNL is the equivalent to an appearance on The Rachel Ray Show now.

    @fatmonalisa: I think you're undervaluing it immensely, actually. I've never seen as many articles about Taylor Swift as I did after she hosted SNL, not even after she swept award show after award show. Not to mention how popular and even arguably influential it was during campaign season. People talk about how irrelevant it is, and yet they managed to get Obama, McCain and his wife, Clinton, and Palin all on air. That's a hop, skip, and enormous jump away from Rachael Ray.

    @DahlELama: Since you opened up the topic, can we briefly discuss the fact that the SNL rerun tonight with Gerard Butler (which is definitely from the current season since those two new women are in this episode) contained a sketch about '300', which came out close to three years ago? WTeffingF is going on with this show? Seriously. (I'm also fairly agog about Baruchel. Whoever manages him is either a very intimidating mafioso type, or, like, a warlock. [Oh my God, now there's a sketch on about 'Braveheart'. I CAN'T.])

    @JohntheCraptist: Yeah, basically Butler will be living off 300 forever because it's the only remotely memorable thing he's done. And I say this having never even seen it, but assuming it must be because otherwise I can neither justify this SNL appearance nor his cover feature in Esquire. I actually thought his episode was OK, especially in a particularly bad season, but I wouldn't like to see him host again.

    As for Baruchel, I'd put twenty bucks on the warlock. Just the fact that his name looks familiar to me is astonishing and clearly the work of the devil and some potion featuring eye of newt. The truth is, he may have comedic chops and therefore not be so bad at SNL, but I find the show a lot less enjoyable when I'm not familiar with the host's work.

    @fatmonalisa: You're right. It's as if SNL has abandoned any attempt to be funny and is now simply about the "gets", as if the mere presence of a novel or high-profile guest host or a cameo by a politico makes the show good. Last night I watched an episode from the second season. In Update, Jane Curtin made a vicious comment about the Tonight Show with Carson being dead after 15 years on the air. Well, SNL has become that Tonight Show.

    I have a Scientology nugget that might be a bit off-thread, but I don't know where else to put it.

    A couple of years ago, the national mag that employed me had an editorial meeting and decided to task a reporter team to do the research ground work on a future Scientology expose. We started by having lunch at the cafeteria on the premises of the "Scientology Celebrity Centre (sic) International" in Hollywood. When we showed up, the receptionists demanded that we all turn in our driver licenses. They recorded all the data in a log. Our names, home addresses and driver license alpha-numeric codes. So.Fucking.Creepy. #scientology

    @snugbug: See, this is how it works in scientific investigations. There was this member of our unit, Ft Sill, OK, who was short of cash and long of need, like all of us, so he left a deposit of value with a Lawton service station and then gleefully lit out with a full tank, never expecting to have to pay the bill. But they traced him down with topflight police work.

    The item he left with the station attendant was his ID card.

    This guy is probably with the Scientology racket now. #scientology

    Tom Cruis is like 5'4 WTF are these morons scared of? Paul Higgins puts them in a very tight spot. He looks like he could live up to anything they reveal AND the revelations will cause more people leaving. I think there will be revelations but it will be more subtle. He is also sure t obe in store for some serious backlash from the Scientology elite. So no movies with the Elfman's #scientology

    @adiam7: from the letter to Fields, posted on Rathbun's website- the threat of a Cruise combat on suppressives was accompanied by the additional threat that the "managers" would be bypassed by Cruise if they did not beat them to a pulp. Here is the excerpt from the letter:

    Miscavige informed all of the members of International management that he had been telling Cruise all about how suppressive Yager, Leserve, and Mithoff had been to Miscavige personally. He told the executives that he had told Cruise how all other members of management were suppressive to Miscavige too because they refused to beat Yager, Leserve and Mithoff to pulps in defense of Miscavige’s honor. Miscavige said that Tom, as his best friend and most trusted confidante, had vowed to come to the Hole and personally "beat the living shit" out of Yager, Leserve, and Mithoff if the managers failed to do so themselves. Miscavige said that if they didn’t show evidence that they had acted, they all would be bypassed the next day by Cruise. The tantrum was accompanied by the usual ill-tempered and sadistic threats to the executives detailing what would become of them if Tom had to do "their job." #scientology

    @adiam7: Cruise is powerful because he's not just a bankable star but also currently runs a Hollywood studio--United Artists. Albeit a kind of phantom studio. Nevertheless, the position of studio head enhances his stature in Hollywood. F-wad demands respect from countless numbers of actors who wish to be employed. #scientology

    @snugbug: That is true but I think his brand is fucked and has been on a serious decline since the couch incident. More importantly, his movies have sucked. Also, didn't his movie partner leave him recently? If this was the old Tom Cruise AND he was running a studio I would be more worried for Paul . I am more concerned about the closet Scientologist and their impact on Higgins. Not to mention those not as secure as Paul Higgins that Scientology could get to in order to effect Higgins in an adverse way . Finally, that wife of his and the whole disconnections thing are probably going to be an issue. I believe Higgins has trouble ahead of him but not as much as he would have had a few years ago. The defectors, tell-alls, news reports, the pesky internet and best of all Tom Davies have really hurt these nutjobs #scientology

    In reply to Scientology Revelations: 'Presentation Drills,' Beatdown Offerings, and Tom Cruise's Audit Sessions
    I've been thinking a lot about Haggis's letter and I think it really puts Scientology in a tight spot. It's totally an assumption on my part, but I would suspect that there are quite a few mid-profile Scientology celebrities who feel the same way Haggis does about the Scientology's Prop. 8 support (i.e., real discomfort). I don't know how Scientology deals with changes in its doctrine, but I assume changes can be made. But given what we all suspect about the way Scientology has used certain members' misgivings about their own sexuality as a means of control, such a change in doctrine could result in less leverage in Hollywood. But not changing their stance has risks too. There's that story about Jenna Elfman and her husband accosting some guy who wore a shirt that mocked Scientology and they angrily said to him, in effect, "you're mocking my religion!" I wonder how the couple would have reacted if someone rather loudly explained to them that, "yes, my t-shirt is critical of your religion because it donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to a political campaign whose sole purpose was to take away my (or my friend's, or sister's or father's) right to marry the person they love. I'm also critical of the Mormon church, the Catholic Church and various freak show right wing protestant churches that you're apparently in bed with. Good day. Assholes." Oh, and I also like to think that the career of Neil Patrick Harris gives Miscavige nightmares.

    @BicycleShed: Scientology can't change its doctrine. L. Ron Hubbard's works, referred to collectively as "Source," cannot be altered in any way. You're not even supposed to rephrase it, because they believe in the importance of exact wording.

    Now, obviously there's the old "previously undiscovered writings" gambit, but given that Hubbard was consistent with his opinions on homosexuality, I don't think it'd work here. For instance, I'm pretty sure it showed up in Dianetics, and there's no good way to efface that. #scientology

    @CumaeanSibyl: Thanks. I should have known that they'd be loathe to deviate from anything previously published by Hubbard himself. I'm sure I'm not saying anything novel and that others have suggested that growing acceptance of homosexuality poses some real problems for Scientology. The battle for marriage rights just seems to shine a spotlight on their (and other institutions') bigotry. To which I say, good. #scientology

    Like anybody should listen to a word Bert Fields says. The fact that Bruce Hay invited Fields and Cruise into his Entertainment Law class at Harvard is pretty sad. Jessica Corsi's account of it is lulzy. And yes, "You can't handle the truth" was uttered.

    @SusieDerkins: Is that site written in another language? I couldn't figure out what the hell he was saying. There was a comment from a couple asking if he would help them rescue their child from Scientology. That came through loud and clear. Heartbreaking. #scientology

    @mfnher: Yep, it's written in Scientologist. I used to speak it (as an opponent, never a member) but it's all gibberish to me now. I do remember debating with clams and they seriously talked this way. Some of the exes did, too. #scientology

Gooey and decadent treats. Cookies even. Name your fav. Plus I'll bring my Tribble and let you pet it. Cap'n.I'm quite happy to be an enlisted Gawker soldier.
