| Amy Poehler on Managing Her Double Life (TVGuide) - 3 days ago
As fearless bureaucrat Leslie Knope on Parks and Recreation, Amy Poehler usually has her hands full with her day job. Behind-the-scenes, Poehler is much more of a multi-tasker. Besides starring in the NBC comedy, the Emmy nominee returned to her old SNL Weekend Update stomping grounds this fall, and she is also raising her first child, 13-month-old Archie, with hubby Will Arnett. How does she do it? To find out, TVGuide.com turned to Poehler, who also discusses her blossoming series, her relationship with fellow NBC star Tina Fey and whether she'll appear on her best friend's show...

| Palin causes the 2012 apocalypse, not the movie, the actual apocalypse (TVSquad) - 4 days ago If you thought the new 2012 movie about the end of the world was blown way out of proportion, wait until you see this. Saturday Night Live recut the trailer for the apocalyptic schlock-fest during last weekend's Joseph-Gordon Levitt episode featuring Sarah Palin as the new president in 2012 and well, just watch it and wait until you see who she picked as her running mate. That grumbling sound in the distance just might have been the apocalypse hungry for action. And before all you Palin-ites getting your complaining fingers ready for typing, you should note that this parody video takes a much bigger swipe at the people who claim Palin and her ilk will bring about the end of the world as we know it. Remember that saying "You can't judge a book by its cover"? The same goes for blog posts and comedy sketches, even if they don't technically have "covers." [via The Hollywood Reporter]

Palin had dirty bit cut from her SNL show (TVSquad) - 9 days ago Here's a shocker: something from Sarah Palin's memoir that hasn't been disputed. Saturday Night Live's Seth Meyers confirmed a claim made by the former Republican VP candidate that she asked the writers to remove a rather ribald joke from Amy Poehler's rap performance that referenced the phrase "drill, baby, drill" during her appearance on the show last year. The full joke went, "When we're in Wascilla (sic), it's chill, baby, chilla/In the bedroom with Todd, it's drill, baby, drilla." That's weird, Take out the "with Todd" and you've got an exact quote from Levi Johnston's MySpace page (that joke so would have killed in 2008).

| Kathie Lee not happy about SNL skit (TVSquad) - 10 days ago This weekend's horrible Saturday Night Live featured another takeoff on the Kathie Lee Gifford/Hoda Kotb hour of Today and the two hosts talked about it on their show. Hoda thought it was funny (and so did the crew) and that Kristen Wiig can sing. Kathie Lee didn't like it (well, she liked the part about Hoda). To be honest, I don't think this is the best sketch they've done about Hoda and Kathie Lee. Maybe she'll think the other ones they've done are funny (probably not). (Stay through the talk about Palin as Hoda and Kathie Lee talk about the sketch more.)

Review: Saturday Night Live - January Jones/Black Eyed Peas (TVSquad) - 13 days ago (S35E06) There was a strange moment of nodding recognition at the end of the night, as I watched Jason Sudeikis and January Jones in the cloud-gazing sketch. Throughout, the man pauses to consider the woman's weird behavior and then concedes, "Ohh, you're a very pretty, pretty woman." Yup. That's pretty much how I reacted the entire night, especially during really bad sketches like the farting Grace Kelly (take a moment to think about that: Farting. Grace. Kelly.) Jones was kind of a stiff host with not particularly daring material, but, goodness gracious, her real-life 50s Barbie prettiness was mesmerizing. Her performances in the mid-century instructional video and the aforementioned cloud-gazing sketch were the best of the evening, but that's not saying much since the rest of her appearances were strange and wooden. Even her good night felt like it had been programmed in and auto-tuned for maximum polite insincerity. Continue reading Review: Saturday Night Live - January Jones/Black Eyed Peas

Paul Mooney's TV history from Black Is the New White (TVSquad) - 2 weeks ago Paul Mooney is well known to stand-up comedians for his own work and for writing for his longtime friend, Richard Pryor. Outside of that, though, his name recognition gets a little fuzzier. So for TV comedy fans, Mooney's new memoir, Black Is the New White, provides some great behind-the-scenes moments they should probably know. There are a lot of heartfelt stories about Richard Pryor and Mooney's own personal life, but there is a lot of fun TV trivia, as well. Mooney talks about getting forced onstage by a couple of friends to do his first solo stand-up spot in the early 60s in San Francisco. Mooney is drunk and nervous, and winds up doing the act of a comic named Ronnie Schell, who would later co-star with Jim Nabors on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. Mooney admits whenever he catches the show in reruns, he feels a little guilty. Readers also get to see Mooney and Pryor trying to write for Sanford and Son, a gig that only lasted a couple of episodes. Predictably, they were a bit too explosive for network TV. Mooney talks about Pryor's meltdown on The Richard Pryor Show (which featured future stars like Robin Williams, Sandra Bernhard, and John Witherspoon), territory that has been covered before, but not from the perspective of a friend like Mooney. And Mooney devotes a bit of time to In Living Color, which adopted his concept for Homey the Clown and the catch phrase, "Homey don't play that." Earlier in his career, Mooney was also a dancer on a show called Dance Party, a sort of west coast version of American Bandstand. It would be interesting to see those old tapes.

| Taylor Swift Alludes to Kanye Once — Once! (TVGuide) - 2 weeks ago
Taylor Swift could've — but she didn't. Defying expectations raised earlier in the week, the 19-year-old singer opted against using the bully pulpit of Saturday Night Live's opening monologue — or any subsequent skits — to hit back hard at Kanye West, Other Links From TVGuide.com |
Review: Saturday Night Live - Taylor Swift (TVSquad) - 2 weeks ago (S35E05) I had to talk myself through being allowed to criticize Taylor Swift. Ever since Kanye West VMA outburst turned everyone in America into Swift's over-protective mom, she's been shown even more as an innocent country-inspired sweetheart. Every time she messed up in this episode, I felt the need to hold back any not-super-great remarks because, well, she's a teeny-bopper! Teeny-boppers have no idea what they're doing! And then I have to pause and remind myself that she's almost 20-years-old, around the same age as Shia LaBeouf and Ellen Page when they first hosted and Abby Elliiott when she initially joined the featured players. Screw it, there's no need to hold back. Swift is a musician, so we can't expect her acting skills to be super-good, but the fact I keep thinking she's only 14 shouldn't affect anything else.

| More poetry: Kristen Wiig reads the words of Suzanne Somers (TVSquad) - 3 weeks ago Don't let anyone tell you that you can't get culture and literature from TV Squad. This is the second post about poetry today. (Tomorrow: e.e. cummings.) I saw Suzanne Somers on Rachael Ray this morning, and then I go to Best Week Ever and see video of SNL's Kristen Wiig reading excerpts from Somers' book of poetry! Unlike the post link above, these words really are from Somers.

| What You Missed Last Night: Ten@Ten with Tina Fey (TVSquad) - 4 weeks ago Tina Fey was supposed to be on The Jay Leno Show several days ago but didn't make it for some reason. But last night she showed up. Well, via satellite, to do the Ten@Ten (not sure what that means to viewers who watch the show at 9 PM). Fey actually discusses something I mentioned in my review of last night's 30 Rock when she answers Leno's question about notes from the network.

New TV on DVD releases this week (TVSquad) - 5 weeks ago Here are the new TV DVDs, in stores tomorrow.I wasn't even aware that there was already a Fawlty Towers complete set out. Or maybe I knew it and forgot and didn't get reminded of it until I heard about the new remastered set that comes out tomorrow. I'm gonna get that. I'm also tempted to get Vegas, just because I liked that show and haven't seen it in years. I hate these "Volume" sets though. Just give us the whole season!

Review: Saturday Night Live - Gerard Butler/Shakira (TVSquad) - 5 weeks ago (S35E04) I remember sitting down and staring at Gerard Butler as he made funny, smarmy faces at the camera. And then I blinked, only to see Butler was thanking the cast and viewers for a wonderful show. I looked on the computer screen. There were half-remembered notes haphazardly tapped out at some point. Somehow, I had jumped forward ninety minutes. Had I finally mastered short-term time travel? Or did I just watch an incredibly forgettable episode of Saturday Night Live? Probably the latter. However, I vaguely recall a destructive robot adorably struggling through a wall. If that was actually a dream and not real life, please don't tell me.

| Top Moments: Balloon Boy, Amazing Race, "Intercoursing" and More! (TVGuide) - 6 weeks ago
This week TV made us feel things. Trauma panicked us with a disgruntled employee shooting at his co-workers. Modern Family made us squirm and laugh with an off-color wedding toast. The contestants of The Amazing Race made us feel smart. And the idea of a little boy in a balloon crashing to his death made us all hold our breath and pray for his safety... and then puke.

NBC is being sued (no, not for canceling Southland) (TVSquad) - 6 weeks ago There are lawsuits filed every single day, some of them against media companies. But this is the first time that I've heard about a TV network being sued because of the fonts they use.I don't mean that they're being sued for infringing on a logo or something like that, I mean they're being sued for the actual fonts that they use. I didn't even know you could be sued for using a certain font. The Font Bureau (which would make an excellent title for a crime series) makes fonts for such people as Apple and Microsoft, but NBC didn't get the rights to use their fonts in the logos for shows like Saturday Night Live, The Jay Leno Show, and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon for more than one time on one computer. NBC has been using them a lot more than that. They're asking for around $2 million. Continue reading NBC is being sued (no, not for canceling Southland)

"That's pretty amazing, winning the Nobel Peace Prize," Jay Leno said Friday night of President Barack Obama's latest accolade. "Ironically, his biggest accomplishment as president so far ... winning the Nobel Peace Prize." That joke may be indicative of the TV comedy world sharpening its arrows a bit more when the current occupant of the White House is the target, The New York Times reports.

Saturday Night Live: Ryan Reynolds/Lady Gaga (TVSquad) - 7 weeks ago (S35E02) After that Jenny Slate f-bomb nonsense and Megan Fox's not terribly original hot girl material from the season premiere, it was exciting to see a really solid episode (and a star-studded one, at that). Ryan Reynolds did a fantastic job as host (snaps for his wavering voice during the porcelain fountains sketch and accent in SYTYCD), though he didn't have any major stand-out roles. Did I miss the memo that Lady Gaga wasn't just musical guest but co-host as well? Such a role is normally left up to Ryan Reynold's giant biceps. It's been a while since we've seen such consistently enjoyable writing in an episode. Usually, there's a distinct lull during the course of the 90 minutes, but I didn't feel it this time. Hopefully, this is a good indication of the rest of the season. Continue reading Saturday Night Live: Ryan Reynolds/Lady Gaga
