Jason Reitman’s fast-paced, dialogue-dense ‘Saturday Night’ takes us back to a time when the half-century-old SNL was a revolutionary symbol of counterculture.
What better way to celebrate the holiday than with this montage of the best Drunk Uncle moments from SNL’s Weekend Update?
We were all sad to see Kristen Wiig’s final episode of SNL. She’s a comedy treasure. Here’s a clip of Wiig and Bill Hader doing The Californians at dress rehearsal to remember her by. The more they got into the voices, the more they cracked up.
We all know (and love) Stefon, Bill Hader’s incredible gay night club aficionado, from Weekend Update. Stefon’s first appearance on SNL wasn’t at the Update desk, but rather in a sketch with host Ben Affleck. Here it is, the moment the world got its first glimpse of Stefon.
Our review of Bridesmaids, starring Kristen Wiig, hits Trashwire May 13th. For now, check out this trailer and tell us if you’re excited to see the movie.
Stefon returned to a surprisingly funny SNL last night with host Russell Brand and musical guest Chris Brown. He offered his best Valentine’s Day tips for some of New York’s hottest clubs. BONUS: Full episode and collection of Stefon clips after the jump…
We all know that, besides Stefon, the Digital Shorts are the best part of SNL. This one features John Waters, Andy, Jorm and Kiv from The Lonely Island and Nicki Minaj.
Here’s this week’s Stefon sketch featuring Bill Hader and Seth Meyers:

If you like fingerless gloves and boiled goose, you’ll love the digital short (aka music video) for “Boombox” featuring Julian Casablancas. This song is one of the many tracks on the Incredibad album from Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer. Just remember, a boombox is not a toy!
