SNL’s ratings have started well, but viewers drop like a cliff after the beginning. Seems they’re tuning in for Tina Fey’s Palin impersonations and diving off for the rest of the luke-warm comedy.
Solution? Make a portal. Yessss…. a whole SNL portal. That’s going to do it!
Seems that lady who fell into the mall fountain while texting (in a video that went viral, and resulted in her heartfelt news appearances) seems to have some prior convictions on her record… a few retail thefts and a hit and run. At least she didn’t appear to get any shoplifted goodies wet. For more…
Can you believe this guy? He’s writing an article about 10 newsworthy events that aren’t related to Google/YouTube. Is it just me or does Steve look like Brad Pitt?
And here’s today’s episode of “Funny Stuff and Cheese,” the daily 12-12:30 talk show that’s on YouTube and one of the fastest growing iTunes talk/comedy shows. It’s hosted by “Mompreneur” Renae Christine and Tom Cote, who hosts my favorite Instragram channel featuring Buddy his pug with stuff balanced on his head. You should follow him…
So I’m sitting at Starbucks at 3, and I’ll be on stage in about 33 minutes. My presentation looks perhaps like a hotdog long before it takes that edible, if somewhat phallic, shape. Despite my morning’s panic attack, missing a flight and driving the 7 hours to Boston, I manage to catch YouTube Hall-of-Famer Michael Buckley…
When I was 8 I used to make a hobby of singing a Monaca (sic) rice jingle over and over again. The more my siblings ignored me, the louder it would get. Now I’m 37 and I’m pranking YouTube for similar immature self amusement. But the thing is… they keep ignoring me. And oddly the…
ViralVideoWannaBe (aka fallofautumndistro) is offering 3 copies of his YouTube book if you sign up to his e-mail… I’m mentioned in the book, and if you read it, you’re guaranteed to be an instant YouTube celebrity I think. I’m not really sure. I kinda scanned it.

WTF???
I like how the article you linked to Refers to “You Tube” and not YouTube.
Does portal mean Youtube channel? No? So it’s going to fail?
Tina Fey is going down, just like the stock market. Woe! Doom! Chaos!
The You Tube idea is interesting, however.
damn, I should probably read the article, should I?
eh, nope, I’m too busy to read an article. sorry.
Tina Fey is da bomb.
I have allergies and some great boogers!
Really the best thing that could happen for SNL is McCain gets elected than they will have 4 years of material with Fey doing her impression. I cannot believe that Palin will not do SNL; it would be seen more than the superbowl and would most likely have her come off as OK.
Wow, I’m surprised not to see the obligatory “SNL hasn’t been funny in years.” Well that was a nice surprise. I know it’s not a cool thing to say, but I really think SNL has gotten a lot better in the last 2-3 years. I agree most of the sketches still aren’t that funny, but if people are tuning out after the opening political sketch, they’re missing the 2 best segments: the Digital Short and Weekend Update. The Digital Shorts are really top notch. They started when Andy Samburg joined the cast and are shot completely on digital cameras.
I’m a big SNL fan, and other than the two new featured players, I like the cast now more than most previous casts. Very funny people. Not like the past several incarnations, where there are one or two really funny people and they carry everyone (Will Ferrell, Sandler, etc.).
I’m NOT a fan of ’70s SNL, though. That is I think where people start to really disagree with me. With the exception of a few things, it was like MadTV to Monty Python’s modern-SNL. At least to me.
They should get Joe The Plumber!
