This film isn’t turning out too funny so far. Good gag with him selling “fresh-squeezed water” from a sponge. Strange joke with his parents living in a revolving door. Oh, he’s only there to throw to a short film starring himself. A segment with Gilbert as himself on the home base stage? If anything, it was at least nice seeing the early stages of Eddie and Joe’s onscreen chemistry.īy Linda Lee- a recap of GIG’s path to SNL Overall, I still don’t mind Joe’s character (I just KNOW I’m eventually gonna get tired of it, though), but this sketch wasn’t anything great. The reference to tonight’s musical guest James Brown felt kinda shoehorned in. We’re already seeing early evidence of Joe Piscopo’s Sinatra obsession, with him briefly singing “Start Spreading the News” after hearing that Eddie’s from New York. The audience gives recognition applause at Joe’s “I’m from Jersey, are you from Jersey”, even though this is only the second time he’s appeared. Looks like we get an Eddie Murphy-starring sketch, and early in the episode too. Paulie Herman plays three-card monty with (EDM) in a bus station Funny visual at the end with Jamie staggering back to the apartment while covered entirely with clothespins.

THE ATTACK OF THE TERRIBLE SNAPPING CREATURES Funny punchline, and this overall commercial was short and to the point. This accurately captures the look of the famous Brooke Shields Calvin Klein commercials from that time. Only brains come between Brooke Shields (GLM) & her Clovin Hind Jeans Quick monologue, which seems to have become par for the course this season. I got a laugh from Jamie doing what she feels she’s expected to do tonight: a loud, horror movie-ish scream. Matthew Laurance, Eddie Murphy, and Patrick Weathers each receive their very first credit tonight. We finally get the addition of this season’s featured players. Overall, a very weak start to the show. This season has had a lot of bad LFNYs in general so far, come to think of it. The segue to it was weird and didn’t work, and the studio audience didn’t know what to make of it, judging from their VERY delayed applause. The “Let’s Spit on the Flag” title is the closest I’ve come to even cracking a smile at this so far.
