Saturday Night Live: open thread; Sarah Palin’s a good sport

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 18, 2008 10:36 PM

Sarah Palin is reportedly in NY for a spot on Saturday Night Live tonight.

Supporters gathered outside NBC studios in advance of her guest appearance.

Here’s your open thread for anyone planning to tune in for the show.

Meantime, NBC is slashing its budget:

A trade paper reports that NBC Universal plans to cut $500 million in spending next year to prepare for an expected continuation of the worldwide economic slowdown.

Variety says President and CEO Jeff Zucker announced the cuts Friday in a staff memo. The reduction would equal 3 percent of the company’s budget.

Variety says division heads will decide how to reduce their spending. But Zucker’s memo suggested several ways, including staffing reductions and cutbacks in budgets for travel, entertainment and promotions.

Feel free to offer budget-cutting proposals for NBC/MSNBC.

***

Hmmm:

“Political blogs are buzzing about Sarah Palin appearing on “Saturday Night Live” tonight. It looks like Gov. Palin might have a difficult time in front of the live audience and hot lights — and she has yet to see a script!

Palin spoke with talk show host Neal Boortz Friday morning on his syndicated radio program. She told Boortz she had not seen a copy of the show’s script, “They haven’t even hinted about what that script is going to say.” Will Palin be improvising? The Alaska governor isn’t worried. She said appearing on “SNL” would give her the chance to “rise above the political shots that we take.”

***

Update: 12:01am Eastern…

Won’t give it away for those of you on the West Coast, but here’s commenter Ronnie’s reaction at HA:

“Nothing will come of this except Sarah Palin will be perceived as a good sport.”

And two more general reactions:

“Meh” and “huh?”

Update: 8:51am Eastern… Here’s the vid:

    Tina Fey will draw a mustache on Sarah, then dump a bucket of pig’s blood on her.

    Sarah will just laugh it off.

    Maybe Sarah will say, if Barack Obama becomes the next President of the United States she will move out of the country and live next door to Alex Baldwin. Hmmm… I don,t know if anyone would want to live next door to that A$$ H@le. TALK ABOUT A JERK!

    Tho you could be right, RR, I tend to disagree. I expect Sarah will do just fine. Even being “booed” – by that crowd – would be a plus. I assume she’s way too bright to let them put idiotic/anti-America words in her mouth to spew. Have faith in The Sarah, RR! :)

    I think the world of Sarah Palin. And I don’t see how this could go well. If you wrestle with pigs, you’re going to get dirty. With or without lipstick. I mean, she is so far above all of them, in my opinion. And so many of them hate her. Intense, irrational hate. I don’t hate Obama, and I don’t want to destroy him. I think he’s overrated, extreme leftist, smiling, empty, rock star, narcissistic, didn’t have a daddy, still struggles with questions of his own racial identity and what it means to him. I’ll post feedback after Palin appears on SNL.

    She won’t be booed. The SNL crowd is very welcoming to conservatives for a bunch of mostly liberal New Yorkers. McCain has been on multiple times, and things have gone great. George H.W. was on back in the day with Carvey. Sarah will innocently make fun of her image, people will laugh, the media will cover it mildly till Monday night, and then everyone will move on.

    I’d say that’s a good scenerio as to how things will shake out, MsJ. But if Sarah were booed or if some liberals disrupted the telecast, I think it would be a net plus for McCain/Palin.

    I’m generally not an angry person, but I’m getting so angry that we are about to elect Obama. His versions of his relationship with Wright and Ayers are so weaselly, they’re Clintonesque, they’re worse than that. Admitting only what he needs to admit. Whining about how he’s a victim. I still haven’t read the major newspaper endorsements he got today — Chicago, LA, Wash. They should be good for a laugh.

    My bet – Gov. Palin (as Tina Fey) co-hosting Weekend Update with Seth Meyers. Seth is head or co-head writer, I believe, and his ego would naturally want to have Sarah as his co-host.

    Hook – Sarah reads pro-McCain/Palin news items, then Tina Fey comes in, exposes the “fraud”, then starts reading pro-Obama news items.

    I’ve always enjoyed Peggy, but she’s sounding a little bitter…The pundits seem to think that Sarah isn’t pulling her weight with the campaign. Here’s how I see it..Governor Palin’s job when she accepted the VP spot was to make sure that I (and others like me) voted for the Republican this year. Until she joined in the fun, I was going to leave my vote blank. So, if I’m still voting, I’d say she’s pulling her weight.

    1. Will conservative talk radio now be limited and restricted, censored on in the name of “fairness”?
    2. Is being a caucasian person now a reason to be afraid for your life?
    3. Is being a christian now taboo and going to be restricted?

    Wahlberg knew his lines, but the big nosed guy never even looked at him while his character was “talking” to him.

    Ok, this Poheler thing is funny.

    You know you’re getting old when you remember watching SNL when it was funny.

    I quit watching it before that. The last time it was funny was with Garret Morris, John Belushi, Jane Curtain, Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, etc.

    No, that was done away with, and thankfully so. If Pelosi Galore gets her way, that ‘fairness doctrine’ will be back, and you really don’t want that. It would likely be the end of conservative talk radio and blogs.

    The only equal time then will only come from conservative or even just moderate venues.

    …all other lefty venues such as PBS, the drive-by media, etc., will get a free pass.

    Like they do now when committing voter fraud all over the US…or any other crime.

    Yes, me too. John Belushi could make absolutely anything funny.

    Yawn! Time for bed. She didn’t have to study those lines — let’s see, what were they? Oh, yeah, “Caribou Barbie”, and, “My favorite Baldwin is your brother, Steven.” Ok, she’s a good sport. And for waiting to see if she was going to do anything else, we can to listen to Josh Brolin do bad George W imitations. Sorry, folks, this really sucked.

    I liked the Bee’s skit where they were accusing one of them of buzzing off. It was like at a camp or something. Some other older person came in and explained something about how someone famous buzzed off.
    The lights went out, and all their beds started squeaking from buzzing off.

    …or the Samurai skits.

    …or the one in which Belushi played some woman with breasts hanging down to his belly button. When he turned they swung way around to his side.

    …or the one where he played a chef that cut his hand and bled all over.

    So is the conclusion that McCain is a Republican?

    Walter Mathau. Freaking Belushi got one of his antenna going in a little teeny circle. Between that and the eyebrow, Mathau struggled like hell to deliver his lines like the pro he is.

    That’s one of my all time favorites too.

    Oh yes “Save The Liver!”
