Ditto Jack.   I've been hearing people say "SNL isn't the same" or "SNL isn't any good since (insert name here) left" for an awful long time.   If it was really as bad as these people think, does anyone think NBC would have kept it on the air all this time?   Of course not!   I have a feeling a lot of the SNL hater...more

Gotta LOVE Hader!  (get it? Ha!)   In response to the SNL's never going to be the same posts, there are some very funny cast members still on the show; Armisen, Killam, Bayer, McKinnon, Sudeikis, Pedrad, Moynihan, Thompson, Strong and Pharoah are all very funny.  What I'll miss is Bill Hader's impressions and his c...more

While I assume he would know the difference, why would Neil deGrasse Tyson feel compelled to explain the difference between Modernism and post-Modernism to anyone.   The guy is an astrophysicist.

Of course.  One of the show's most memorable characters.

And they watch 30 Rock too, right Dennis?   Prometheus (if that IS your real name...), I suppose you eschew all television viewing, save the occasional PBS special on the life cycle of the dung beetle.   Even Shakespeare wrote comedies with an appeal to the masses.

You all know, this is how business is operated and always has been, don't you?   Two parties negotiate, in this case the actors and the studio, and they either come to a mutual agreement or they don't, period.   If they come to an agreement, you'll see these actors reprise their roles from the first Avengers movie, ...more
