McCain/Palin and Obama/Biden to all appear on SNL tonight?

McCain is confirmed to appear on SNL tonight, the real John McCain, not the fake John McCain played by Darrell Hammond.

Is it possible that the real McCain/Palin and Obama/Biden all 4 of ’em could make the final SNL before the Election tonight?

So far, Sarah Palin and Barack Obama both showed up on SNL but McCain and Joe Biden never made an appearance maybe they will tonight.

Report: Chevy Chase attacks Sarah Palin again, says her being on the show was a huge mistake…

Former SNL star and former “Weekend Update” host, Chevy Chase continues to express his hate against the Vice President hopeful Sarah Palin. First he said he wanted Tina Fey to decimate Sarah Palin next time, and now he is saying it was a bad idea to put the real Sarah Palin on the show.

He said Lorne Michaels who is the longtime founder/owner of SNL had no scripts or no lines written for Sarah Palin, everything Sarah Palin said was all improvised. That means her insult at Tina Fey “No questions please” was improv as well.

Read more on what Chevy has to say about Sarah on SNL here:

I’ll admit that Sarah’s acting was pretty bad and kind of noticed her lines weren’t scripted a bit. She should focus on politics, not trying to start an acting career.

The only thing I give Sarah credit for is that she helped Tina Fey become more well known. Seriously!

Cool Video: The real Sarah Palin DID IT!!!! She appeared on SNL last night!!!

The real Sarah Palin herself came on the show and confronted her enemy Tina Fey last night. Not only that, Mark Wahlberg himself showed up on set to confront his enemy Andy Samberg.

See it here:

Sarah also did the Weekend Update where she did a rap thing about Alaska, see it here (NOTE: This is the real Sarah Palin in Weekend Update, it’s not Tina Fey):

Know the stories in the news where Mark Walhberg didn’t like Andy Samberg impersonating him? Marky Mark is not a happy camper. (Don’t worry I know all this Samberg vs. Marky Mark is all scripted to hype up the “Max Payne” flick)

See it here:

Saturday Night Live was usual pretty lame but those three segments above I laughed the hardest, they were the best.

Enjoy.

Report: Youtube soon to run full length TV shows in it’s entirety…

Youtube my favorite website, will soon be showing full length TV shows in every single episode and every season in profesional quality. You missed some episodes in your favorite TV show and you don’t want to spend all that money for a DVD boxset of your favorite show? Not too worries. Youtube will give fans an opportunity to watch your classic TV and todays TV shows for free.

The youtube giant inked a deal with CBS to start airing shows such as the classic “Beverly Hills 90210”, the original “Star Trek” series, the daytime soap opera “The Young and the Restless”, and “MacGyver”. The Showtime shows “Dexter” and “Californication” will also get the deal.

This is only the beggining, they will start off small but youtube plans on airing as much TV shows as possible in the future.

More on it here:

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3ib51a5e93dda16ab761d18c19ebeb15af

This sounds pretty cool. I’m all for this.

“Macgyver” is one of my favorite shows so I’ll be watching some of that in youtube when they start doing it.

Expect youtube to get all other popular shows as well such as “The Simpsons”, “The Family Guy”, “South Park”, the earlier “American Idol” seasons, “Friends”, etc.

Tonight’s Saturday Night Live Weekend Update special on NBC…

I watched the tonight’s “Saturday Night Live – Weekend Update” special for the Elections. And it was a LOL riot fest! I laughed hard throughout the whole thing! It was hilarious!

I find the 2nd Obama/McCain Debate spoof to be the best skit of the entire show. During that Debate 2 with Obama/McCain was mostly making fun of Tom Brokaw’s “time limits” when speaking. Bill Murray who is a former SNL star made a cameo during that skit and he was hilarious as usual.

Rumours were swirling that the real Sarah Palin herself was supposed to do a cameo but I didn’t see her on there. Look like Sarah is not on tonight but she will be on in the future, definitely sometime before the Elections happen.

SNL “Weekend Update” spin off was great. SNL should do this more often.

Report: WGA shoots down the Osbournes on not working with them for variety show…

The Writers Guild of America is refusing to write for the Osbourne family’s new upcoming variety show they got planned for FOX. The WGA officials sent a letter to all members of the WGA threatening it’s employees that if they agree to work with the Osbourne family anyways, they will be fined up to 100% compensation for their work and says it will be violating the working rule 8.

The reason the WGA is pissed off. The WGA tried to negotiate a contract with Fremantle Media but an exec said the talks of a contract was over, a company that is in charge of many popular TV shows such as “American Idol”. Fremantle then sent out a statement blaming the WGA that they broke off the talks.

Try not to be confused here readers, the WGA has nothing against the Osbourne family, they have no grudges against Ozzy and Sharon. They are pissed off at the Fremantle company. The WGA had a pure dislike at the Freemantle company since way back when they first started “American Idol”.

Variety Reports:

http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117993690.html?categoryid=18&cs=1

Ozzy should stay off of TV and focus on his music anyways. And Sharon is doing fine on “America’s Got Talent”.

So this Osbourne variety show is pointless. I think Ozzy and Sharon are just feeling bad that Kelly and Jack haven’t been on TV in a long time.

Thought: About Springsteen performing Superbowl halftime…I don’t agree with it…

Does anybody feel a little weird about Springsteen doing the Superbowl this year? While I’m a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen’s music, I really don’t agree with Springsteen doing Superbowl half time. He’s too much of a legend and too huge of a star. Springsteen just had to jump at this opportunity before anyone else got it. He had plenty of huge shows in the past. I’m sure the Superbowl officials had plenty of acts on the list to perform in case Springsteen dropped out, but he’s in of course.

Give a different artist or band a chance at that opportunity.

I actually would rather see Metallica or Ac/Dc doing the Superbowl this year instead of Springsteen.

We’ve heard all of Springsteen’s music, he’s performed on TV too much too.

What about John Mellencamp, Phish, Pearl Jam, the Dave Matthews Band, Radiohead, or Neil Young?

I like Springsteen, I feel he is a little too overrated, I’ve always said I ain’t much of a fan of the E Street Band, I’m more of a fan of Springsteen’s solo acoustic work more.

Give other artists a chance at this opportunity instead of having has beens that already had opportunities like this. Of course, the Superbowl always have legendary artists every year as a ratings ploy for TV.
