We started this week as a total nerd-fest. Monday is the day we pitch our sketch ideas to Lorne and our host. We walk into a small office, sit, and one by one talk about what we want to try that week. It's mainly a way for us to all get together and feel out how the show is going to be. But for this pitch meeting, we all wanted to do something special for Jon Hamm since we are ALL such huge Mad Men fans. So we decided to show up totally dressed up in suits and early 60's style dresses. It's funny because we've never done anything like that for pitch. Many of us had cigarettes and glasses of scotch too. It seemed like he really liked it and I'm glad we did it. Everyone looked great. I can't even remember what the pitches were...
Okay, so the photos below are from after the pitch meeting I just wrote about. Some of us went out to dinner and then ended up in this candy store. I was laughing about how we are these grown men in suits totally excited about getting candy. So I took some pictures.

This is in the office of Weekend Update. After the dress rehearsal, they decide what jokes go where.

Wow, they break every single Weekend Update joke up to decide if it's good enough.
