Stefon, still hilarious. Now it's obvious the point is to make him break, though.

Would see an Ambiguously Gay Duo movie with Jon Hamm and Jimmy Fallon (and Colbert and Ed Helms and whoever that was playing Big Head).
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:05 (twelve years ago) link
ROFL @ the live action Ambigulously Gay Duo... hahahhahaha
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:05 (twelve years ago) link
colbert
― You Get Hoynes (bnw), Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:05 (twelve years ago) link
I would sooo pay to see that made into a real movie
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:06 (twelve years ago) link
i thought it was just some lame rerun filler at first
― You Get Hoynes (bnw), Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:07 (twelve years ago) link
that was pretty choice
i thought 'what's up w/ that' was too much meta & not enough sudeikis dancing
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:07 (twelve years ago) link
jon hamm is just the best, that's all there is to it
big head was carrell
― Gukbe, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:08 (twelve years ago) link
perfect!
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:08 (twelve years ago) link
omg first buckingham and then this amibuously gay duo wow
paul simon kinda boring
― tehresa, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:10 (twelve years ago) link
idk i think this is kinda cool/based
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:11 (twelve years ago) link
at least listen-able, which is better then most of this season
― You Get Hoynes (bnw), Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:13 (twelve years ago) link
There should just be a rotating Hamm, Alec Baldwin and Timberlake slot.
― Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:17 (twelve years ago) link
i endorse this idea
― tehresa, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:18 (twelve years ago) link
i'm just going to choose to believe that will smith set up his massive trailer in order to create a controversy so he could pull even w/ denzel washington in the "times impersonated by jay pharaoh on snl in 2011" race
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:26 (twelve years ago) link
i believe they are both tied at 34
Odds on Jay Pharaoh having a second season? Low, methinks.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:27 (twelve years ago) link
is it me or has there not been much Ed Helms in this episode?
― Gukbe, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:27 (twelve years ago) link
i would hope that they'd keep jay pharaoh around considering how young he is -- i mean i know he was famous mostly for impressions, otoh i would like to see them use him for more than just impressions of the same ppl that black comics have been impersonating since he was a child
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:28 (twelve years ago) link
I don't know if he's just not writing anything else, or if all his non-impression stuff is just getting cut at rehearsal, but he's a one dimensional castmember so far. Disappointing, certainly.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:30 (twelve years ago) link
I hope they keep Jay around, he's really talented he's just being underutilized... they ought to actually write some sketches for him!
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:31 (twelve years ago) link
Paul Brittain is kind of invisible too. Vanessa Bayer and Taran Killam are the only new ones who really made an impact this year.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:32 (twelve years ago) link
it's still weird to me that they fire ppl after one season
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:33 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i don't remember anything paul brittain's done except that one character that jaymc said he did at improv
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:34 (twelve years ago) link
they really need to hire some new writers... and get rid of Seth Meyers...
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:35 (twelve years ago) link
On the whole, this season's been funnier than SNL has been in a while imo. I'm sure a few new writers would be a good thing, but no matter who you bring in they all still have to answer to Lorne.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:38 (twelve years ago) link
well they chewed up & spit out hannibal burress xp
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:39 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i think this season has been the best in a while
They should end more sketches with Kenan as Louis Armstrong in a little circle in the corner.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:44 (twelve years ago) link
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:44 (twelve years ago) link
That too.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 15 May 2011 04:45 (twelve years ago) link
I don't know if I've ever seen a host used less than Ed Helms. granted, I watched the show on demand, where they cut out the monologue and a few sketches, but that small role in the Ambiguously Gay Duo sketch was literally the only time I saw him until after Weekend Update, well into the 2nd half of the show.
― some dude, Tuesday, 17 May 2011 12:35 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah. I was looking forward to it, since I went to college with him, but couldn't believe how little he was in it. Maybe they spent all week filming Ambiguously Gay Duo. I have a theory that whenever they cut to a commercial they've already shown, it's going to be a thin episode.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 17 May 2011 12:53 (twelve years ago) link
Helms played the banjo in "What Up with That."
― jaymc, Tuesday, 17 May 2011 13:38 (twelve years ago) link
GAGA.
and timberlake
but GAGA!!
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 22 May 2011 03:28 (twelve years ago) link
they're gonna give her a big ten minute block like they did jay-z right?
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 03:29 (twelve years ago) link
gaga's on? i guess i have to go figure out how to get this to appear on my tv
― markers, Sunday, 22 May 2011 03:38 (twelve years ago) link
shit, that's one of the best lonely island songs ever
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:00 (twelve years ago) link
the melody in the hook is just the shit
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:01 (twelve years ago) link
eh I didn't find it that funny tbh... I chuckled, that's it
― The Brainwasher, Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:03 (twelve years ago) link
interesting tho that gaga will have a gay rights anthem on the charts at the same time as she's singing on a song that expresses a sentiment (jokingly or not) that is at least mildly homophobic
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:03 (twelve years ago) link
yeah it wasn't even really that funny, i kind of wish it was a real, normal song tho -- from a pure musical standpoint i loved it
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:04 (twelve years ago) link
i would go see a "the pianos of lady gaga" exhibit at the smithsonian in 20 years
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 22 May 2011 04:05 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, the actually song was pretty cool melodically, I agree.
anyway great performance by GaGa, love the piano-version of "Edge of Glory"
