Thanks,

Do you have any links for details? Quotes? Thanks!

Brown Eyes · « **Reply #4 on:** December 17, 2006, 03:00:40 pm »

Thanks for the info! This is exciting, but at the same time it makes me nervous. I sort of hope he doesn't do a BBM skit.

Mikaela · « **Reply #5 on:** December 17, 2006, 03:15:12 pm »

I can't imagine anything but that Jake will be perfect for SNL! He's got the right sense of humour, and doesn't takle himself too seriously, and he's got the style *and* the looks...... They'll probably make him look really weird in some of the skits.

My main gripe, of course, is that this show doesn't air for the whole world to see it. I can only cross my fingers and rely on some kind soul getting it all out on YouTube or the like, so us non-Americans can join in the fun.

And on top of that, I hope some kind soul will care to explain to me total foreigner what SNL is?

Saturday Night Live... It's a live comedy routine performed someplace in New York that is broadcast every Saturday. They have guest stars every episode.

isabelle · « **Reply #9 on:** December 18, 2006, 04:16:25 pm »

Oh, right! Thanks Daniel.
In fact, I lived in the UK for a few years and I remember there used to be a show called exactly that on TV. But it was British. Maybe both countries have it (don't know if they still run it in the UK).

Actually, Saturday Night Live, as I have always perceived it, is more than just a show, but a cultural icon. To host it is actually an honor, bestowed on only the coolest of the cool (or at least the flavor of the month), and a sure sign that Jake G. is considered "on". Plus it gives the audience a chance to see such actors let their hair down and have fun. They also tend to host when they are promoting something, so I presume this coincides with the release of Zodiac. I sense that Heath L. will host when Batman comes out. It takes a lot of talent to do well on a live show; as much as I dislike Justin T-Lake, I have to say that his performance last week was pretty funny. I predict that Jake G. will do better, he seems like a natural funny dude.

Toast · « **Reply #11 on:** December 19, 2006, 03:39:37 pm »

OMG
I haven't watched Saturday Night Live for years
But I will be watching this one and I'm sure it will also be availble as a download the next morning too.

MMMM who should be the musical guest with Jake,

He will be so funny.
Can't wait.

southendmd · « **Reply #12 on:** December 19, 2006, 03:45:16 pm »

Toastie,

The musical guest is already announced: a group called the Shins.

I don't know them, but several people at Chez Tremblay say they're good. Apparently they did the "Garden State" soundtrack.

Toast · « **Reply #13 on:** December 19, 2006, 11:54:56 pm »

Thanks Paul

I think I have some Shins files
and I will make a point of hearing them soon.
and downloading more just as soon.
Just checked - they seem like a cool word-of-mouth group.

I have Garden State here somewhere - the one with the guy from Scrubs, right.

I'm sure Jake will be promoting the Zodiac thing, but there will surely be a Brokeback skit. I hope it makes a good point.

Now wouldnt it be great if Heath was a guest on Jake's show...........

Could we cope with that?

Wouldn't THAT be great? A skit with Jake where Heath pops up by surprize? Heath could say :"I wish I knew how to quit you!"

Katie77 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 27, 2006, 07:32:36 pm »

Or.................................when Heath walked out on stage, they embraced like they did in THE other reunion scene.................

Lynne · « **Reply #17 on:** December 27, 2006, 08:48:16 pm »

That's good news, Paul. Garden State was a fine film.

coffeecat33 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 09, 2007, 03:34:46 pm »

You know, Heath DOES live in New York!! Maybe he could drop by.

"Garden State" is a good movie and the soundtrack is terrific.

Good point, Leslie. I noticed that Steve Martin and Martin Short did cameos for Alec Baldwin's last hosting.

I can just imagine a BBM spoof: Jake's in the tent, his partner under a blanket and....Heath reveals himself! Or, make the spoof about "straight" cowboys (are there any of those left?) and have Michelle pop out of the tent.

As long as Jake shows some skin.

I agree! Would be priceless!
I am secretly hoping that Heath makes a surprise appearance .. even for 1 teeny-tiny skit!

I don't watch SNL anymore, haven't done so forever .. it just got boring ..lol.. I can't even remember what channel it's on ..
But for Jakey, I will be there!

ednbarby · « **Reply #21 on:** January 09, 2007, 04:10:54 pm »

Hell, I can barely keep a thought about anything else in my head, I'm so looking forward to this! Terribly sad, I know, but true.

Hopefully somebody will post it on youtube so we Europeans can see it too! $:-\$

I'm sure someone will. I would if I knew how. As it is, I'll be TiVo'ing it and can certainly transfer it to videotape* for any interested Europeans. PM me if you are.

I'm all about sharing the joy.

You are not sad at all to be looking forward to Jake on SNL. Im not much of a tv watcher but you bet ill be in front of the set Saturday night at 11:30 channel 8 - NBC. I cant wait to see him smile, hear him talk, and look at that beautiful hair, body and of course those beautiful baby blues. Hey wont it be perfect if he shows some skin for us...

Ooo! Rember how Alec Baldwin used to do those skits where he was the gay Boy Scout leader?

How about a BBM style tent scene with Jake where Alec Baldwin steps out of the tent? He he he!

southendmd · « **Reply #27 on:** January 10, 2007, 04:51:45 pm »

Good one, David.

Of course, if Alec is unavailable, I'm sure one of us would be happy to fill in.

Brown Eyes · « **Reply #28 on:** January 10, 2007, 09:33:04 pm »

Hey Buds, I propose that we organize a chat here at BetterMost during and/or after Jake's appearance on SNL. It might be great to guage reactions and responses right after the actual show. I'm going to start a thread about it in Social Forum!
cheers

*insert nodding head icon here* Yes - those of you with technical skills - get it posted on you tube for us!!!!

Crap. I do believe you're right. Well, I'll bet someone here has the technical skills to get it onto youtube. And if not, someone else out there definitely will get it there not long afterwards.

A girl can hope, right? I'm hoping along with you & Kelda here.

You're right. North Americans have the NTSC system for color transfer (dictionary says ink transfer?) on TVs, we Europeans have PAL. American videos don't play on our equipment.

All our hope has to be on youtube. Like back then, before the BBM DVD came out...

Mikaela · « **Reply #32 on:** January 11, 2007, 03:08:52 pm »

**Kneels in humble supplication before the power of almighty YouTube**

Pretty pleeeeaaaase?

(Sure hope that helps! I went to NBC's SNLL home page and got slight heart palpitations when I saw the somber Jake pic they're sporting. Makes it real, somehow. Although they spell his family name wrong; - they've got it as Gyllenhall....)
