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



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. 
"They were respectful of each other's opinions, each glad to have a companion where none had been expected.  Ennis, riding against the wind back to the sheep in the treacherous, drunken light, thought he'd never had such a good time, felt he could paw the whiteoutofthemoon."

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.

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.

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.

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!"      :laugh:

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

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. ;)
