    Nouriel Roubini pops up in an SNL skit and Gawker doesn't say anything? Are we ignoring Mr. Poon Art now?

    Wish I could see Motherlover but those MotherF*#%ers at NBC Universal continue to restrict online access to their video clips by overseas viewers.

    Gibb isn't Australian, he was born on the Isle of Man and grew up in Manchester. He's more of a Mancunian than he is an Australian, as evidenced by his accent (correct me if I wrong about that, though). I wonder whether Fallon even knows that Manchester and the Isle of Man aren't part of Australia.

    @i'm a bottle: Here's an interview with Andy Gibbs, he seems like a great guy but sounds like he could start crying at any point. Of course, the SNL actors lack the ability to make a character seem real yet find the humor in him/her:


    And yelling "I'm Barry Gibbs" and then having a hyperactive episode after each person speaks is not good comedy.

    It still stuns me that Timberlake is as funny as Walken or Baldwin as an SNL host. But he's a natural for this stuff.


    Will Ferrell hosts next week which means if anything we'll get some Celebrity Jeopardy and that's fine by me.

    Either I'm too old or I've been in Europe too long, but I didn't laugh once.


    Maybe I need to be drunk for it.

    Yeah, the digital short was a chuckle and a half at best, and the rest seemed kind of...terrible. Did I lose my ability to recognize humor?
