    The whole show seemed like an homage against Proposition 8. Gay skit after gay skit after gay skit. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but throw the girls a bone, eh? Are there any women writers on that show now that Tina Fey is gone? The humor is back to being All Boy All The Time.

    @mcbeachy: Yes ... noticed the same thing about the (mildly homophobic?) gay content. Or, um, an homage FOR Proposition 8? Let's hope not ...


    After the snow ended, I clicked to E!, and watched the opening credits for an SNL that Linday Lohan hosted some years back. Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler, and Rachel Dratch were all regular players (none of this "and featuring" crap). Thems was the glory days. Who knew?

    @ADismalScience: I know. What struck me while he was doing his thing tonight on Weekend Update was that singing [or whatever you want to call that embarrassing and humorless warbling he's primarily known for] was the wrong career move for him: he should be in the entertainment business because of his comic instincts.

    @ginger rant:


    That's the other thing about it - he's funny looking. In the sense that all comic actors have a unique appearance that lends itself to comedy - that's totally him. He was miscast as a tween sex symbol; he has the goofy looks and charming timing of a potentially great comedy actor.

    @ADismalScience: I think it helps that he's now reached a level of fame where he just does not give a shit anymore. I mean, the appearance on this show was clearly only for dumb fun, nothing more. It seems like he can finally let his guard down and just be a goofball.

    Whenever Rudd appears on "Conan," he claims he's brought a clip from whatever new movie he's promoting, but it always turns out to be this scene. (Apparently he's done it a dozen or so times now.)

    All the clips suck. I didn't laugh--or even snicker--once. Despite that, I suppose I like Paul Rudd. He's okay. I guess.

    I remember I was visiting my friend in Los Angeles in, maybe, 1997. We were at a party and, by chance, Paul Rudd was there. We were talking to someone who I think was his publicist or agent ... whatever ... we asked him "hey, isn't that the brother from Clueless?


    He replied, "yeah, unfortunately that guy's career is over." Going on to say that he was next to impossible to cast.


    I am happy to report: he was wrong.

    @Midwesterner in NYC: That's interesting. Why would it be hard to cast a really good-looking and talented guy? He did look extremely boyish in the late 90s, but it seems like he'd be a good fit playing Drew Barrymore's shy, sweet boyfriend in her sickly-sweet films. He might have also been well-suited for sitcom work even back then.

    I like him, he's handsome and funny, a surprisingly rare combination.


    Also surprising: that the NYT paper edition accepted the ad for Role Models where he's clearly peeing against a wall. I suspect they stipulated, "no puddle", and indeed, there's none.

    Hey Alex. I left you a message on your Gawker mail about an earlier post.


    As for SNL, it'll be a miracle if they can keep up with the post-election expectations inspired by Tina F.
