Darrell Hammond, the greatest impressionist the show has produced

It's finally happened -- or will have happened by this time tomorrow: a "Saturday Night Live" show without a single weak sketch or proverbial dull moment.

Technically, of course, it's "Saturday Night" but not "Live" -- the latest in an occasional series of taped "Best of" shows spotlighting a single performer. In this case, though, it's a single performer with a hundred others up his sleeve.

Accurate down to the last hair: Darrell Hammond channels Donald Trump in a "Saturday Night Live" sketch with fellow cast member Amy Poehler. Hammond is the first "SNL" regular to get a "Best of" show while still a regular member of the cast. (Nbc)

Rerun
D...
Last night (1/27/07) we caught an SNL rerun with Ludacris as Guest Host.  The O’Reilly Factor sketch as was brilliant!  The entire show was funny.  Keep up the great work!
D...*
Bill O’Reilly reminds Factor viewers of their successful boycott of Pepsi years earlier when they forced Pepsi to back down from hiring “vulgar rap star” Ludacris as a spokesperson, and hired instead the much more appropriate spokesperson Ozzy Osbourne. But now Ludacris is back, getting signed to a multimillion-dollar contract with Def Jam Records.

O’Reilly introduces Michael Dantley, VP of Def Jam Records, and offers him an ultimatum: either drop Ludacris or face the prospect of an O’Reilly factor boycott. Dantley points out that the last boycott of France actually led to an increase in sales of French imports. O’Reilly admits this, is even proud of it, and says that that’s the whole point of the boycott: to create the “psychologically devastating” state of uncertainty in the target of the boycott, not knowing whether the boycott is going to devastate their sales, increase them, or leave them exactly as they are. In the end, Dantley refuses to drop Ludacris, and O’Reilly insists the boycott will go forward, but thanks Mr. Dantley for showing the courage to come on the show.

Then O’Reilly introduces his next story. He’s outraged at the story of a man who beat an 8-year-old girl to death but was then nominated by a local judge for “Man of the Year”. O’Reilly introduces Fox Legal Affairs Correspondent Anthony Brooks, asking for his opinion on the case. Mr. Brooks disagrees with O’Reilly, citing the fact that the man did not actually beat the girl to death, but in fact gave her a scholarship. O’Reilly says, “it doesn’t matter! The girl was EIGHT YEARS OLD.” Well, actually, Mr. Brooks says, she was 25 and had just returned from a tour of duty in Iraq.
 
This was a funny and cute time filler.  I hope to see these tow old codgers again, even with a hanging mustache too!
 
***
Two old codgers sit in a diner and grumble about modern life, asking a thousand questions like “When did chicken become a pizza topping?” “Why can’t they make the pee pads into pee pants?” and “Why can’t they mix the no-pee medicine with the stiffy medicine?” Meanwhile, one of the old guy's moustaches starts to peel off his face.

GO BUCKS!

From one "nut" to another (From Deb to Darrell)

  • The Ohio State Buckeyes are named after the Buckeye tree. Although buckeye nuts are useless, the Buckeye delicacy, which looks just like the nut, is a round peanut butter ball dipped in chocolate. No one can eat just one.
  • Darrell Hammond, famous for his Saturday Night Live impressions of Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Al Gore, graduated from Florida with a degree in broadcasting before heading to New York to start his career. He is the longest-running cast member of Saturday Night Live.
