Andy Samberg in Middle School Kids (SNL)

Middle School Kids

Positive messages from teachers motivate the kids to help Marvin try to walk with a broken knee.



Ouch. This wasn't funny at all. Did you think it was funny?

Check out the very end. It's hard to tell, but it kind of seems like none of them were overly happy when it was over, and Kenan was kind of wanting to get out of there... sort of like they knew how bad it was.

Enjoy?

Alec Baldwin
Tom Petty
Fred Armisen ... boss
Danielle Flora ... dancer
Bill Hader ... guy
Bobby Moynihan ... Fred
Nasim Pedrad ... girl
Andy Samberg ... Dennis
Jorma Taccone ... friend



Wow, totally an Andy and Jorma written skit. Reminds me a little of the Awesometown intro and the song and dance part of Hot Rod (before the riots).

Is it just me, or does the animated, evil Andy/Dennis look a lot like Will Ferrell?

It''s also interesting to note that this short was played earlier than usual, right after the monologue.

Enjoy!

Digital Short: Betty White's Golden Girls Theme

Hilarious! The entire cast and the lady SNL grads band together for this spoof on the Golden Girls theme:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/05/09/betty-white-goes-metal-fo_n_569275.html

We'll probably have an embedded version later.

SNL Digital Short: Thank You For Being A Friend

Betty White
Amy Poehler
Ana Gasteyer
Maya Rudolph
Molly Shannon
Rachel Dratch
Tina Fey
Fred Armisen
Abby Elliott
Will Forte
Bill Hader
Bobby Moynihan
Nasim Pedrad
Andy Samberg
Jenny Slate
Jason Sudeikis
Kenan Thompson
Kristen Wiig

Kristen looks cute in her real hair.

Jenny's look at Kenan is also pretty cute. Andy gives his signature laugh.

Abby is still smiling when the craziness first kicks in. Then, later, Amy is laughing when she shouldn't.

Andy introduces it. The Lonely Island obviously wrote this craziness that gives reference to pop culture (their trademark humor).

What do you think?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg in Bronx Beat (Betty White)

Mother is up from Florida with her Yoga instructor. A Betty White Dress Rehearsal Exclusive.



With all these great guest actresses on board (Betty White, Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey, Ana Gasteyer, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, and Molly Shannon), there are bound to be some amazing dress rehearsals cut from the show.

Andy was in one of those, a new Bronx Beat.

Is Amy preggers again? It's good to see Maya around again. She hasn't been super active since she left.

Betty looks great when she's all dressed up like this.

Andy's the yoga instructor.

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg in Scared Straight (5/8/10)

Keeping kids out of trouble goes old school.

Betty White ... Loretta McIntosh
Bill Hader ... kid
Bobby Moynihan ... kid
Andy Samberg ... kid
Jason Sudeikis ... Officer Sikorsky
Kenan Thompson ... Lorenzo McIntosh



Hahahaha. Betty White makes Hader laugh and then comes back in at the end.

Andy doesn't seem to crack in this one, although Bobby does briefly and Hader does majorly.

Andy has been in all six of these skits, starting on 05.10.2008 with Shia LaBeouf.

==================

This is it for Andy this week. He was also in the digital short that isn't online.

Enjoy!

SNL in the 2000s - Documentary (SNL Special)

Here are clips from the documentary they aired on NBC...

First the promo...

"Saturday Night Live in the 2000s: Time And Again" airs on Thursday, April 15 9pm/8c



Andy's TV Guide photo is featured, and there's a still of him young and shaggy-tastic at about 28 seconds in.

==========

The story behind the Lazy Sunday from Saturday Night Live In the 2000s: Time and Again.



Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer talk about the making of two scenes from Lazy Sunday. Andy's in the Lazy Sunday clips. I wish they would show more of the interviews online.

=========================

Chris Parnell shares some never-before-seen dress rehearsal raps in Saturday Night Live In the 2000s: Time and Again.



Hahahaha. So the way Lazy Sunday came about is that Lonely Island pitched Chris to do one of these Weekend Update raps with him, and Chris sugggested that they just do a digital short like LI's previous online vids. And thus they went out to film Lazy Sunday.

=================

The backstory of the Sarah Palin rap from Saturday Night Live In the 2000s: Time and Again.



Hahahaha. Andy is one of the eskimos. Reportedly, Amy previously revealed in an interview that she sat down with Andy to get some rapping pointers for this rap. Apparently, Amy had this rap prepared, and as soon as she saw an opportunity (on Friday, the day before), she busted it out and sold everyone on it!

Bobby Moynihan played the moose and got shot by Amy Poehler. Nice!

========================

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake shed light on the conception of the sketch in Saturday Night Live In the 2000s: Time and Again.

Amy and Maya reveal the backstory of Bronx Beat from Saturday Night Live In the 2000s: Time and Again.

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg & Gabourey Sidibe SNL Promo

Gabourey Sidibe was in Precious.



Hahahaha. These are classic Lonely Island gags again here. Jorma must have been around. I can't get enough of Andy screaming. And as long as Andy's writing the jokes, Gabourey should be an awesome host. =^)

What do you think?

Thanks to Shazam for the scoop!

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg is Toby in Teen Talk (Roger Brush skit)

Show: Teen Talk

The show that normally helps with the issues facing today's teenagers.

Ryan Phillippe ... Rudy
Fred Armisen ... Roger Brush
Bill Hader ... Leonard
Nasim Pedrad ... Shelby Winters
Andy Samberg ... Toby
Kristen Wiig ... Janelle



I didn't find this funny the first time. Not sure why they let Fred do this again. The first appearance of Robert Brush was on Woman to Woman on 11.21.2009.

Andy pretty much saves this skit.

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg in Shake Weight SNL Commercial

Commercial: The Shake Weight Commercial DVD

For people who can't get enough of the Shake Weight commercial.

Fred Armisen ... guy
Abby Elliott ... model
Will Forte ... guy
Bill Hader ... spokesperson
Bobby Moynihan ... guy
Nasim Pedrad ... model
Andy Samberg ... guy
Jenny Slate ... model
Kenan Thompson ... guy
Kristen Wiig ... model



Hahahaha. Wow. This was amazing, and I'm surprised that ALL the ladies were in this! They certainly have a sense of humor.

Andy was in briefly at the end in the four screen-split.

What did you think? Any ladies find this offensive?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg is Zig Zag on Hip Hop Kids

Show: Hip Hop Kids

It ain't no thing to stay away from bears.

Ryan Phillippe ... J Style
Abby Elliott ... Lil' Prinzess
Steve Higgins ... announcer (voice)
Andy Samberg ... Zig-Zag
Jason Sudeikis ... Flip Flop
Kenan Thompson ... K Smoove
Kristen Wiig ... Baby Suggs



Finally, they make a sequel to this and put Andy Samberg in it! Finally! Andy and Abby replace Maya and Amy. The original was way back on 12.16.2006. They must have had this one in their back pocket.

I think Andy was an excellent straight man! What did you think?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg is Mort Mort Feingold

Sketch: Mort Mort Feingold: Accountant For The Stars

Doing taxes for the stars!

Ryan Phillippe ... Robert Pattinson
Abby Elliott ... Shaun White
Will Forte ... John Edwards
Bobby Moynihan ... Susan Boyle
Andy Samberg ... Mort Mort Feingold
Jenny Slate ... Kristen Stewart
Jason Sudeikis ... Mel Gibson
Kenan Thompson ... Tyler Perry
Kristen Wiig ... Kate Gosselin



Hahaha. Not all of these are funny, but it's just a fun excuse to bust out a bunch of impressions. I loved Abby's stoner and Bobby's Susan Boyle (though his singing is Nathan Lane). Lots of fun. I hope they do it again.

It's been a looooong time since Andy had a live skit where he was the lead like this.
What do you think?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg in the Ryan Phillippe monologue

Some show characters would like their own movies.

Monologue

Ryan Phillippe
Fred Armisen ... saxophonist
Andy Samberg ... singer
Jason Sudeikis ... dancer
Kenan Thompson ... Diondre Cole
Kristen Wiig ... Target cashier



So they start off the MacGruber jokes with 3 other SNL characters wanting their own shows: Andy's # in a Box and Mother Lover singer, Kristen's Target Lady, and Kenan's Diondre Cole.

So what would Andy's character's movie be like?

Enjoy!

Andy Samberg - new digital short: The Other Man

Hahahaha. Weirdness. Who was that at the end?

Betrayal can be a vicious cycle.

Film: SNL Digital Short, The Other Man

Ryan Phillippe ... Kyle
Fred Armisen ... father
Bill Hader ... priest
Bobby Moynihan ... friend
Nasim Pedrad ... Megan
Andy Samberg ... guy
Kristen Wiig ... mother



What did you think? Another silly character for Andy. Andy should revive one of these characters in a live skit.

This was sort of the opposite of the jazz curse short with Jon Hamm (in this one, Andy was the curse instead of the cursed character).

Enjoy!
