by | March 6th, 2013

Here's all of this week's SNL promos, with host/musical guest Justin Timberlake being joined by veteran castmember Kenan Thompson for a bunch of silly bits. Towards the end of the clip, Timberlake finally reveals how he stays so busy: cloning. He then proceeds to introduce us to a bunch of Timberlake clones, each one more charming and smiley than the next. Sadly, the Timberlake clone who invested in Myspace.com does not make an appearance.

by | January 23rd, 2013

Maroon 5 guy Adam Levine is hosting SNL this week with musical guest Kendrick Lamar, and here's Levine with Bobby Moynihan cutting a bunch of silly fun promos that heavily reference Levine's show The Voice.

Someone Will Die on Tomorrow's 'Childrens Hospital' Finale

by | November 14th, 2012

Here's a preview of Childrens Hospital's fourth season finale, entitled "Eulogy," in which one of the cast members dies. Or at least a cast member on the show-within-the-show (Childrens Hospital is really confusing). In the episode, fictional newsmagazine show Newsreaders (which is getting its own spinoff soon) looks back on the departed cast member's life, which should be really tough on the other actors within-the-show-within-the-show.

Louis C.K. and Bill Hader Promise 'SNL' Will Happen No Matter What in New Promos

by | October 31st, 2012

Here's host Louis C.K. and cast member Bill Hader in a series of promos for this weekend's new SNL. The two promise they're doing the show "no matter what happens," as long as they don't get wet again.

New York City's been hit hard by the hurricane, and this week, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and visiting Jimmy Kimmel Live all had to cancel tapings while David Letterman and Jimmy Fallon each did their shows without an audience for a night or two. Unlike these other NYC comedy shows, SNL will be going forward this weekend, presumably with an audience. It's a pivotal episode for the show, its [...]

Jeremy Renner is hosting SNL this weekend with musical guest Maroon 5, and here he is with long-serving cast member Kenan Thompson in a series of fun promos, most of which play off of the fact that he's an intense action star.

'SNL' Promos Feature Christina Applegate and Jason Sudeikis Reviving New Jack Swing

by | October 10th, 2012

This week's SNL host Christina Applegate paired up with cast member Jason Sudeikis to record this series of promos, most of which reference her last time hosting the show back in 1993 when she was a cast member on Married… with Children. Sudeikis mentions the "Matt Foley" sketch Applegate appeared in 19 years ago, which was the first time Chris Farley played his motivational speaker character on TV. Of course, this batch of early 90s references wouldn't be complete without Applegate and Sudeikis dancing to new jack swing music, proving that every SNL promo should heavily feature new jack swing from now on.

by | November 7th, 2012

Oscar nominee Anne Hathaway is hosting SNL this weekend with musical guest Rihanna. Here's a series of promos for the show that Hathaway cut with cast member Jason Sudeikis.
