Kenan and Bradley hug it out.
Kenan isn't all that funny. In my opinion, his strength is in being the straight man who gives the crazy characters a look.
Cold Opening: Bipartisanship
The Senate is in need of support.
Fred Armisen ... Harry Reid

Boring and painful...
Monologue

Andy Samberg
Show: Today
Kathie Lee at the Hoedown!
Bradley Cooper ... Miss Bee
Michaela Watkins ... Hoda Kotb
Kristen Wiig ... Kathie Lee Gifford
I know that Kristen Wiig's Kathie impression is supposed to be annoying, but it's so annoying that it's more annoying than funny. Thoughts? Bradley Cooper saves this.

Twisted much. I would have liked it if one of the contestants went postal. Will Forte looks good with the facial hair.
I'm On A Boat
T-Pain
Andy Samberg

Wow. I think this is their second-best digital short this season, behind "J--- In My Pants."

Really?!?: Michael Phelps
Seth shares his thoughts on Michael Phelps.
Wow! I was wodering if Seth was going to go off on Phelps, especially after Phelps hosted earlier this season. But it was exactly the opposite! Seth shows extreme loyalty to the former host here as he attacks everybody who slammed Phelps for smoking dope. Great job, Seth!
Update: Mark Spitz
The second most famous Olympic swimmer discusses the first.
Andy's pretty funny here. Good puns. I wish I had an Admiral.
Update: James Harrison
The Super Bowl winner would like a minute.
Kenan busts out a tired Harrison. Funny, but it's really only one joke.
Update: Bjork
Iceland's lead vocalist weighs in on the economy.
Cute. Kristen shows that she owns random.

Andy Samberg gets to play Hans Gruber! This is an impression he did in his original audition for SNL back in 2005. Awww, Andy didn't get to yell "McClane!!!"

Overall: A fun episode. What really stood out here was "I'm On a Boat," and Andy, Seth (Really), and Kristen on Weekend Update. There wasn't much else great about this episode. Thoughts?
Enjoy!
