SNL Weekend Update Thursday 10/23

So last night I had the pleasure of being in the audience for SNL Weekend Update Thursday. Tickets are distributed by a lottery that accepts entries every year during the month of August only. A few week out, they send out an e-mail telling you and a friend how to get your tickets. I'll be making another post about the experience but until then, here are the highlights of last nights show.  


George W. Bush endorses John McCain
Tina Fey AND Will Ferrell, so exciting! His version of W is my favorite SNL election parody ever. Strategery!
More about last night's SNL Weekend update Thursday after the jump!




Fred Armisen gets his Ineractive Map On
I think this joke will only seem funnier after election night which I will spend watching newscasters do this for something like 5-6 hours, desperately trying to fill time while still not knowing what's going on. 



First Cellphone Call an "Jam the Vote!"
My favorite joke for the whole episode is the recording of the First Telephone call. Ghostbusters shoutout! Also Andy Samberg's "Jam the Vote!" segment made it clear just how much I'm writing down Kristen Wiig when I get into the voting booth this year. No?

You Might Notice We're Distracted Today

I got the 30 Rock Season Two DVD yesterday and I can't stop watching the commentaries. Literally, it's like smack. And frankly now that I've given up cheese, fried foods, snacking in general and anything that tastes good.. Liz Lemon is all I have left.


Just so you're not all lonely out there in cyberspace, here's some of Tina Fey from the Sandwhich Day commentary, revealing just how much she doesn't have a foot fetish:

"Yeah. Liz Lemon sleeps with socks on because nobody in TV land needs to see my feet. They're private. Let's all remember that when we wear flip-flops on planes, nonsense like that. I would rather see your genitals."

Things I'm Obsessed With: Liz Lemon


It's difficult to express all my love for my TV alter ego, Elizabeth Conworthy (not her middle name) Lemon, and to write about anything having to do with 30 Rock without writing everything about 30 Rock. But if I were a female 30-something television producer, I would definitely want to be her or Jane Epsenson, but probably Liz. The producer of the fictional TGS with Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock has added so much to my every day vocabulary:

"Blerg." - Yes, Lemon, blerg!

"Dag!" - As in, "Dag, who does that?!?"


"Shut it down!"

"It is ill."

All the reasons I love Liz and video tributes, after the jump.

She has an unaccredited degree in Theater Tech.
She goes up on her roof all the time!
She doesn’t want to get drunk because there’s too many phones in here.
She eats El Sabor de Soledad cheese puffs from the Spanish deli in her neighborhood.
She has a laundry and newspaper pile.
If she was a Sex and the City character, she would be the lady at home who watches it.
She thinks gay dudes should be able to adopt kids and we should all drive hybrid cars but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t love America
She's going to tell all her friends she's voting for Barack Obama, but really she's voting for John McCain. (Mostly that one's amazing because it's from an episode from January 2007.)

The 30 Rock season premiere is October 30 and it can't come soon enough. So here's some of Liz in her own words.

Liz on Business


Liz on Frankfurt


Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate


Liz on Lots of Things - A 90 second Quote Compilation



Jack on Liz



Liz on Food - A Fan Made Music Video
This is set to that song from the Josie and the Pussycats Movie which only makes it more awesome. Did anyone else forget that movie had Rosario Dawson, Alan Cumming, and Parker Posey in it? Also, what happened to Rachel Leigh Cook?
