Welcome to the Space Olympics. The year is 3022 and the Space Olympics are facing financial uncertainty.

Worst. SNL. Evar.

The prologue bit was funny though. That Tina Fey, she can do no wrong.

You know, plexi, I'd snark at this, but I'd rather just get a salt-shaker tattoo and kiss my dad, you know?

SNL has been hit and miss from day one. Everyone seems to embrace the notion that it completely sucks now, but the general quality of the show hasn't varied that much since '75. I say this as a fan, and knowing others will strongly disagree.

Tina Fey had the impression down pat. The only other funny part was the news (for some reason I found the "political comic" character to be really funny). The rest of the show was stone embarrassing. Didja notice that Michael Phelps couldn't take his eyes off of the cue cards?

Tina Fey had the voice and speech patterns down perfectly (and that's what Palin would look like if she were actually hot) but even in the pantsuit would you have known that Amy Poehler was doing Hillary if it hadn't said so?

k, living in Korea, that was kind of perfect K/Asia-Pop parody. But I heard the rest sucked.

Probably not good enough to crack the single-video-link worthiness barrier, and even less so than the single-video-link SNL thread we already have going.
