I don't usually laugh during the musical segments, although there are exceptions.

I mean she was basically playing her as Snooki dressed in a space costume but the rap bit was a bit lol

Snooki dressed in a space costume

xpost It's really not that complicated: Sudeikis is pretending someone is pulling him by his ear.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 24 February 2012 14:41 (twelve years ago) link
I thought Psychic Awards was funny, but man everything involving Lohan is just a travesty.

lol'd @ the end of the scared straight sketch but lindsay was so bad in it
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 4 March 2012 05:06 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, maybe you don't want the first time you've acted/performed in years to be on live tv?
― Ghost Oral (Deric W. Haircare), Sunday, 4 March 2012 05:08 (twelve years ago) link
I liked the "Real Housewives of Disney" skit with Lohan in it
― curmudgeon, Monday, 5 March 2012 13:52 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, that was prob best of the night. Of course, it was prerecorded.
― Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Monday, 5 March 2012 14:01 (twelve years ago) link
I kept wondering why Jimmy Fallon was there -- usually cameos in the monologue are a bit more purposeful than "hey, it's an ex-cast member w/no relationship to the host" -- and then I watched Thursday's episode of Late Night, in which LiLo begged Jimmy to drop by. He was like, "OK, sure, whatever."
― Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Monday, 5 March 2012 14:04 (twelve years ago) link
all i saw was the scared straight bit. it wasn't very good. the best part was sudeikis and the rest of them breaking at the end. did i miss anything?

does jon hamm have some relationship with lohan? think the purpose of cameos is to reninforce the anything can happen vibe in order to get people to watch.
― mizzell, Monday, 5 March 2012 16:35 (twelve years ago) link
maybe lorne michaels called in favors to keep the thing afloat
― goole, Monday, 5 March 2012 16:37 (twelve years ago) link
The only sketch that really made me laugh was the 'weird guy by a fire' bit at the end.
― Ghost Oral (Deric W. Haircare), Monday, 5 March 2012 16:40 (twelve years ago) link
Backups in case she didn't show up, or passed out backstage or something.
― I Fucked Up (jer.fairall), Monday, 5 March 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
otm
She was so awful in that Scared Straight skit.
― stan this sick bunt (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 5 March 2012 16:51 (twelve years ago) link
She was bad...but she wasn't any worse than Channing Tatum, for example.
― Respectfully, Tyrese Gibson (Nicole), Monday, 5 March 2012 17:05 (twelve years ago) link
otm, this was a better than average episode with an average (ie pretty bad) host.
― mizzell, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:06 (twelve years ago) link
John Hamm is also in a new movie written and directed by his wife that also stars Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph. So no doubt promoting that.
I thought the episode was OK, had some good moments, but LL didn't add anything, had very few good lines and was mostly a straight-man.
― dan selzer, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:07 (twelve years ago) link
so to speak.
tl dr ! ! !
but i was glad to see that lindsay lohan seemed to be in good shape. the snl writers i can only assume are in far worse shape than is she. laughed more during the blood-soaked local news preceding it

don't you need to mention something in order to promote it?
― mizzell, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:13 (twelve years ago) link
Also, his appearance was a joke about the fact that he is a frequent and well-loved host.

Synergy, mang! They ran the ad for the film about 10 times on Saturday night.

thought this was going to be a discussion of the Neil Young / Springsteen thing. that was pretty hilar. or was that web-only or something? (I watched it on Hulu.) Fallon does a p amazing Neil impression.
― dmr, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:36 (twelve years ago) link
That was on Fallon's show a long time ago, assuming you are talking about their cover of Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair".
― stan this sick bunt (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 5 March 2012 17:39 (twelve years ago) link
Nah, they did Sexy and I Know It together on Friday night.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:40 (twelve years ago) link
i think they did that on his show too or just took the video of it
― bnw, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:44 (twelve years ago) link
oh whoops you said friday
― bnw, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:45 (twelve years ago) link
Have they always cracked up so much at the end of the 'Scared Straight' skit when Sudeikis jumps on the desk? I feel like I've seen that happen before.
― boxall, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:48 (twelve years ago) link
It's usually Kenan's mission to crack up Bill Hader, but this time Sudeikis was the spoiler.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 5 March 2012 17:49 (twelve years ago) link
It looked/sounded like Sudeikis knocked something over when he jump-sat on the desk; that's what I thought broke everyone up.
― Tarfumes The Escape Goat, Monday, 5 March 2012 18:31 (twelve years ago) link
they were just happy to laugh at something imo
― goole, Monday, 5 March 2012 18:33 (twelve years ago) link
gawker said he knocked over some pencils

The last episode that had a skit where everyone couldn't stop corpsing was another Lohan-hosted one:

i'm not sentimental but it's sorta painful seeing lohan like that
― goole, Tuesday, 6 March 2012 16:14 (twelve years ago) link
Bill Hader as James Carville on the news segment was the best bit.
― o. nate, Tuesday, 6 March 2012 17:16 (twelve years ago) link
i only made it through the first 30 minutes of this, but i still feel hungover from it. isn't the show supposed to be front-loaded with the best bits? whatshisname's shepard smith bit was indistinguishable from his keith morrison
