That's awesome!

I saw that one and cracked up. You can actually see it on housequake but the one that I have scene on housequake is like it has pink and somebody else on it. Either way they are both pretty funny.

They need to hang it up already. The past skits were funny but last night sucked! Queen Labeefa was horrible and the guy doing P looked awful. Enough already!

Agreed. As a P fan, I thought the SNL skits suck and are ridiculous! After while, the same shit b/c lame. SNL needs to put away thier hateraide.

I love the references too! It's actually kind of surreal to see someone on national TV saying that shit!

I've heard it dozens of times. He was a comedic genius. His Bill Clinton was better than Bill Clinton's Bill Clinton. I'll never fully understand why his wife went psycho and killed him. It's pretty sad.

I agree that SNL's two greatest moments were the "not-ready-for-primetime-players" and the Farley, Hartman, Sandler, Carvey years. Do you remember when Entertainment Weekly gave the ENTIRE SNL cast "entertainer of the year?" They deserved it. I think I like that 92-95 cast better than the originals, and that's saying something. This year, I haven't been very impressed with the cast, at all. Most of them are new and not many are very memorable. The debate skits have been decent, although the VP debate skit was pretty lame.

I agree, 100%. Prince needs to stop taking himself so seriously. He pisses, ****s, burps and shits just like the rest of us.

That wasn't a pretty picture I painted, was it?

Hartman was the master. I file it under taking away the truly gifted and keeping people on that should've died years ago (Keith Richards). It's very sad, hard to grasp that someone that just wanted to make people laugh has to end that way.

I remember that! That's very rare, especially for SNL to have an entire cast awarded anything.

Those years were magical like the first years of the show, everything just seemed to click-and there's no recreating it.

This year has been shaky like the past few years. I love Tina Fey the most, Amy Poehler has been one of the better ones (I'm a fan from her Upright Citizens Brigade days), I think Fred Armisen and Will Forte show some good promise given the right roles.

Horatio I'm a fan of but I'm not sure what he'll do much beyond be the funny fat guy now that the stoner sketches have ended. Maya Rudolph I think is another one that isn't used near as much as she should be. They've got good people, but the cast as a whole isn't remotely as good as the early days or the 90's.

It seems more and more they're not willing to take chances on SNL anymore-they have to rehash a certain number of sketch ideas to meet their quota it seems like. It's more about the guest star than it is having stuff that the cast could stand well on their own.

The debate one was good, but the debate itself was hilarious alone. The VP was very weak, I keep wishing I had an opportunity to help write just to tell them they have all this potential so go out of the norm a little bit more.

Who knows how long the show will last, if you had asked me after the Carvey/Myers/Hartman years after that cast left if I wanted to see it go on I would've said no just to hold the memory.

Maybe it'll get back on track somehow-they come up from treading water with something good every once in a while.

These Prince show scits have been moderately funny. The only time I laughed hysterically was during the SNL Prince show with Janet Jackson as Paula Abdul when he disappears from the chair, and paula asks, where did Prince go? and Maya Rudolph playing Beyonce says, Prince wants to cry now. Then Fred as Prince starts writhing on the floor doing his best Prince moans and screams. This is the funniest one that I have kept on tape. The last one with Queen Latifah as Patti Labelle, at the end Fred shouted NPG!! I thought that was so funny because he's obviously a fan. He's definitely got the Princisms down.

I wish someone could link an mpg of this. I missed it.

pennylover said:

Yay for Fred!

He's cool

Yes, this skit is too funny! I missed this one, but I saw the first one where they had Prince painting. That was too funny! I am so mad that I missed this one!

can someone tell me how many Prince show's there have been and what were they about? I caught the "new" one but thought Fred did a horrible Prince. Phil Lamar from Mad TV is the ultimate Prince impersonator.

Does anyone know where we can find this skit online? I missed it and would love to see it!

klhk said:

phil's prince was pretty dead-on, right down to the voice. i didn't see the snl skit, i rarely watch the show anymore anyways. e! used to show reruns of the old-skool snl, like from the late '70s/early '80s and i watched those.

I like that they are thinking of Prince, but these skits are never funny! They are just flat and dumb, no one in the audience ever laughs.

I did. I like Prince being Mentioned and played in a skit. It pokes fun at Prince,but well we fans LOVE whenever Prince is Mentioned. It's ADORABLE!

Zelaira said:

Yes! I like the fact that PRINCE is being thought about enough to include him in a skit!

When I saw the first skit with Fred as Prince, I woke my sister up because I couldn't believe it! It is adorable, indeed.

Totally unrelated reply.June7-cool screen name!

So, uh... you think he's gonna do it again this Saturday? Who would you like to be his guest stars this week?

Sorry to all the folks with no sense of humor, but this was truly funny.
