252: "Sir, Could You Please Stop Squeezing My Face" - Twin Peaks The Return Episodes 1 and 2

February 24, 2021 23:28 - 83.4 MB

This week we start part 1 of a 9 part series.  We're taking a break from shitty talking dog movies and old ass episodes of SNL and watching something of quality for once, Twin Peaks The Return.  We'll be watching and talking about 2 episodes per week so this week is Episodes 1 and 2.  We don't know what the hell is going on yet but we know Jim Belushi will show up at some point so we're still keeping with our theme.  Enjoy!

251: "Mail Us Your Poop" - SNL S28E19 - Adrien Brody / Sean Paul

February 11, 2021 05:00 - 64.8 MB

We watched the infamous Adrien Brody episode of Saturday Night Live so let's talk about it.  Jamaican accents, gay man servants, Elton John, fake arms, and some Jimmy Fallon hatred.  Also, why does this commercial want my poop? Enjoy! Download Here

250: "Thanks For Ruining The Podcast" - Dog Gone (2008)

February 04, 2021 05:00 - 58.9 MB

OG SNL cast member Garrett Morris shows up in the 2008 family film Dog Gone.  This piece of shit stars a little boy who finds a dog with diamonds up its ass or something.  French Stewart plays a thug.  Kevin Farley farts.  The President of The United States is a white supremacist terrorist who just started a war on his own country's soil.  Nothing much makes sense now.  This episode was recorded on Jan. 7th 2021 so we got bigger things to discuss than a shitty movie about a shitty dog.  Fuc...

249: "Nobody Is In The Woods For That" - The Brave Little Toaster (1987)

January 28, 2021 05:00 - 61.9 MB

SNL alums Jon Lovitz and Phil Hartman both voice household objects in The Brave Little Toaster from 1987.  What a bizarre piece of children's entertainment. Download Here

248: "The Diddling Must Not Be Too Good" - The Book Of Henry (2017)

January 21, 2021 05:00 - 57.7 MB

  SNL alums Bobby Moynihan and Sarah Silverman appear in the 2017 film The Book Of Henry so we watched it for the podcast.  A movie that is not at all what it appears to be.  Marketed as a fantasy filled family movie this is actually a thriller about murder from beyond the grave orchestrated by a child.  Enjoy! Download Here

247: "We Could Have Used More Urkel" - Big Fat Liar (2002)

January 16, 2021 22:59 - 62.5 MB

  We watched Big Fat Liar because Taran Killam is in it.  We're smart people.  Enjoy! Email us at [email protected] Download Here

246: "All He Knows Is Punching" - SNL S20E09 - George Foreman / Hole

December 23, 2020 22:57 - 75.1 MB

 We pulled Morweena Banks out of the hat and picked to watch an episode of Saturday Night Live that she isn't even in.  Oops.  Apologies to Morweena Banks, but you were only on 4 episodes of SNL and we didn't put that into consideration when picking an episode from your season.  But, on the other hand, I feel like I have said the name Morweena Banks on this podcast more than anyone else has said Morweena Banks on a podcast, so maybe you owe me a debt of gratitude.  Once again, apologies to ...

246: "All He Knows Is Punching!" - SNL S20E09 - George Foreman / Hole

December 17, 2020 05:00

  We pulled Morweena Banks out of the hat and picked to watch an episode of Saturday Night Live that she isn't even in.  Oops.  Apologies to Morweena Banks, but you were only on 4 episodes of SNL and we didn't put that into consideration when picking an episode from your season.  But, on the other hand, I feel like I have said the name Morweena Banks on this podcast more than anyone else has said Morweena Banks on a podcast, so maybe you owe me a debt of gratitude.  Once again, apologies t...

245: "Mmmm...Whale" - SNL S11E13 - George Wendt / Francis Ford Coppola / Phillip Glass

December 10, 2020 15:30 - 70.3 MB

  By special request, one of the weirdest episodes in Saturday Night Live history.  Hosted by Cheers star George Wendt but guest directed by Francis Ford Coppola and musical guest Phillip Glass.  It's an odd one but an interesting one.  Sketches include a monologue interrupted by Coppola, a Vietnam sketch interrupted by Coppola, That Black Girl interrupted by Coppola, George Wendt selling whale meat, Robert Downey Jr in a suitcase, and Ralph Kramden punching his wife in the face.  Enjoy! ...

244: "Poop Salad" - Problem Child 2 (1991)

December 04, 2020 14:55 - 67.1 MB

  You like poop?  You like farts?  How about some vomit?  Pee?  We got all that and more with Problem Child 2 starring SNL alums Laraine Newman and Gilbert Gottfried.  A Jon Waters movie for kids is one of the most perplexing things we've seen.  Love it?  Hate it?  I'm not sure and I don't think I ever will be, but it has a lot of gross shit in it.  Enjoy! Download Here

243: "Just Like Pootie Tang" - Scary Movie 3 (2003)

November 28, 2020 22:34 - 48.8 MB

This week we watched Scary Movie 3 because Darrell Hammond plays a priest in one scene, also because we're dumb and do dumb things.  Thought this would be more fun to talk about.  Sorry.  Enjoy! Download Here

242: "The Mr. Skin Of Farts" - The Man (2005)

November 16, 2020 21:40 - 60.8 MB

Farts are funny, right?  There are absolutely no jokes in The Man a 2005 action/buddy comedy starring Samuel L. Jackson and Eugene Levy, but at one point Eugene Levy farts, and it's smelly, and Samuel L. Jackson smells it.  If you're into that kind of thing, skip to 48 minutes in and you'll hear some juicy farts and you'll laugh, because you're not a good person deep down.  Horatio Sanz shows up in this piece of crap for 2 scenes so we watched it, because we're dumb, and next week we'll wat...

241: "I'm Gonna Take You On A Hobo Date" - Curly Sue (1991)

November 09, 2020 14:03 - 65.1 MB

  A lost soul, a young girl, a working woman willing to throw it all away for the magic of a hobo date.  We watched Curly Sue starring SNL alum Jim Belushi and featuring a very young (and almost SNL cast member) Steven Carell.  This marks the last time John Hughes stood behind the camera and it is a complete mess.  Best described as a slapstick drama, this movie follows a homeless man and a little girl as they run scams in the big city looking for sandwiches.  Enjoy! Subscribe anywhere yo...

240: "Gravy Train: Adam Sandler Takes A Shit" - Hubie Halloween (2020)

October 26, 2020 01:43 - 53.6 MB

This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Hubie Halloween.  God help us all. Download Here

238: "The Completely Self-Indulgent Podcast Part 2" - The Worst Movies Of Saturday Night Jive

September 30, 2020 18:48 - 95.5 MB

It's part 2 of our Podcast Retrospective.  This week on Saturday Night Jive we're talking about the worst movies we've seen.  We've seen a lot of crap and it's time to rank it from crappiest to still very crappy.  Plus we include clips from the episode where we talked about each movie.  Full archive available at saturdaynightjive.blogspot.com.  You can email us anything at [email protected].  Scroll down in the description for the complete list if you don't mind getting spo...

237: "The Completely Self-Indulgent Podcast Part 1" - The Best Movies Of Saturday Night Jive

September 26, 2020 21:25 - 94.4 MB

It's a very special episode of Saturday Night Jive as we are counting down the best movies we've seen in the history of the podcast.  We unveil the list of Best Movies and take a look back with clips from the episode where we talked about it.  Scroll down in the description for the complete list if you don't mind getting spoiled.  It's a big old Saturday Night Jive Wank-A-Thon!  Enjoy!

236: "An All-Out Wank-A-Thon" - SNL S16E18 - Steven Seagal / Michael Bolton

September 19, 2020 15:40 - 48.1 MB

  This week on Saturday Night Jive we talk about a notoriously bad episode of SNL hosted by Steven Seagal with musical guest Michael Bolton.  While Seagal is completely terrible, at least George found some stuff to like about this episode.  We get some blackface or course, because it wouldn't be an episode of our podcast without that coming up at least once.  Seriously SNL, way too much blackface.  I swear we're not intentionally picking episodes with blackface.  It's just if you throw a d...

235: "Which One Do I Shoot?" - Big Business (1998)

September 10, 2020 04:00 - 44.6 MB

Dear Mary Gross, we're sorry.  Next time we pull your name we will finally watch Feds.  I don't know why we didn't do it this time.  Maybe I'm afraid I won't love it as much as I should.  I really want to enjoy Feds but I've been hurt by movies in the past and I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to put my heart back on the line.  So instead we watched some piece of crap that you have two scenes in. Big Business from 1988 stars Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin as two sets of twins, born at the same...

234: "To Entice Guttenberg" - Short Circuit 2 (1988)

September 02, 2020 04:00 - 58 MB

  This week we're talking Michael McKean and his performance in Short Circuit 2 from 1988.  A jive talking robot, a white man in brownface, and a fast-talking street tough are just trying to run an honest robot sweatshop when diamond sugglers ruin their plans.  I guess that proves the old adage, don't rent the abandoned warehouse directly across the street from the biggest bank in the city.  Join us as we talk about Johnny 5 and his quest for respect in a world against him.  Plus we get ho...

233: "Matt Lauer Provides The Chuckles" - Land Of The Lost (2009)

August 27, 2020 04:00 - 32.9 MB

  This week we're talking Will Ferrell and his 2009 bomb Land Of The Lost.  Once again we are watching a movie based on a TV show that nobody cared about in the first place.  Who is this for?  Were fans of the show clamoring for Danny McBride?  Was the coveted 18-49 year old demographic excited for a movie based on a show they don't know existed?  How much dinosaur pee can Will Ferrell pour on himself?  A pretty short episode this week as we struggle to find something interesting to say abo...

232: "I Like Pizza, F**k Andie MacDowell" - Multiplicity (1996)

August 20, 2020 04:00 - 79.7 MB

  This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Multiplicity from 1996 starring Michael Keaton as a man who clones himself so he can have more time in the day.  Why, you ask?  Because SNL alum Robin Duke has 3 lines.  Also featuring Brian Doyle-Murray this movie raises a lot of questions that we didn't have in 1996.  Like, why are these clones seemingly fine with the fact that they are basically slaves?  Why is one of the clones gay?  How problematic is one of those clones over 20 years later...

231: "The Leftest Of Left Fields" - Father Of The Year (2018)

August 15, 2020 14:35 - 51.4 MB

  Apologies to the Siobhan Fallon fans who were anxiously awaiting a podcast devoted specifically to the Pauley Shore move Jury Duty but we couldn't find that for free on the internet and you can go to Hell if you think I'm paying for that shit.  So we called an audible and watched some crappy Happy Madison film on Netflix.  Father Of The Year debuted on the streaming service in 2018 and stars SNL alum David Spade and features cameos from Kevin Nealon and, of course, Melanie Hutsell.  This ...

230: "Who Likes Frank Caliendo?" - The Comebacks (2007)

August 05, 2020 17:08 - 49.9 MB

What a difference over 200 crappy movies makes.  Back in 2007, George watched The Comebacks starring SNL alums David Koechner and Finesse Mitchell and directed by the guy who gave us Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star.  It was so terrible he broke the DVD he burned it on so it would never be played again.  Flash forward to 2020 and The Comebacks is one of the best movies we've seen for this podcast.  Unfairly lumped in with the spoof movies from Friedberg and Seltzer, this is a funny movie wit...

229: "That's How You Trick The Devil" - Monkeybone (2001)

July 22, 2020 07:00 - 29.9 MB

We watched Monkeybone featuring SNL alum Chris Kattan as a rotting corpse.  We also give some quick thoughts on Palm Springs now streaming on Hulu starring Andy Samberg.  A split decision on Monkeybone, while we agree that the visuals are dazzling and the story is light we differ on which of those is more important.  Chris Kattan is definitely great in this and John Turturro is obviously your first choice for the voice of a cartoon monkey.  If you have a question you want us to read on air ...

228: "Oh, Shirley Jones!" - Godzilla (1998)

July 15, 2020 07:00 - 32.7 MB

We watched Godzilla from 1998.  Why?  Because SNL alum Harry Shearer plays the news anchor who is always undermining his underlings.  We're a smart podcast.  This is a simple little movie about a biologist and a reporter and the rekindling of their romance amidst the backdrop of a giant lizard destroying the city.  This a film that both of us remember being disappointing when we saw it in the theater as kids and watching it 20 years later elicits pretty much the same response.  Enjoy! Down...

227: "Guy On Toilet...The End" - Larry The Cable Guy: Health Inspector (2006)

July 08, 2020 07:00 - 26.7 MB

Why did we watch Larry The Cable Guy: Health Inspector, you ask?  Because SNL alum David Koechner plays Donny, Larry's mentally challenged neighbor in this magnum opus.  Hard to know who has it worse, David Koechner, Tony Hale as a man in a wheelchair whose basic role in the movie is just so Larry can make some jokes about the physically disabled, Tom Wilson for having an agent so bad he would let him appear in a movie with Larry The Cable Guy, the poor woman who is tasked to play Larry's l...

226: "Mexican Donkey Boy" - SNL S19E15 - Nancy Kerrigan / Aretha Franklin

July 02, 2020 07:00 - 41.5 MB

You like old ass epsisodes of Saturday Night Live?  Well we watched one.  From Season 19, Episode 15 is hosted by Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan and she is just as funny as you would think she would be.  A notoriously bad host, Nancy stumbles her way through the show but uses her awfulness to her advantage as she tempts a Mexican lothario played by Phil Hartman with her lack of charm.  Sketches include a Bill Clinton cold open, The Denise Show, Chris Farley ice skating, Ellen Cleghorn...

225: "Dong In The Dumphole" - SNL S37E08 - Steve Buscemi / The Black Keys

June 30, 2020 02:03 - 35.9 MB

Sometimes you need to take a little break from the garbage.  After watching one of the worst movies we've ever seen last week we decide to watch something good so we went back to Saturday Night Live and picked an episode that got George back into the show.  Because we picked Nasim Pedrad, it's Season 37 Episode 8 hosted by Steve Buscemi.  Sketches include Coach Bert, Surprise Sue, Dateline, The Miley Cyrus Show, Sex Ed Vincent, and it wouldn't be an episode of Saturday Night Jive unless we ...

224: "There's A Nugget Of Corn In There" - Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star (2011)

June 23, 2020 22:55 - 32.9 MB

Ooh boy.  This was a rough one.  We watched Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star starring Nick Swardson and featuring SNL alums Kevin Nealon and Jimmy Fallon (in one scene as himself).  Bucky Larson is a simple man-child from a small town who discovers his purpose when he discovers his parents were porn stars.  He moves to the big city, finds a girl, gets a job in the adult film industry, and jizzes...a lot.  This is one of the worst ones we've watched in the history of this podcsast but, if you...

223: "Full Of Blackface" - SNL S11E18 - Anjelica Huston and Billy Martin / George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic

June 15, 2020 20:39 - 47 MB

This week on Saturday Night Jive we're talking about the finale to Season 11 hosted by Anjelica Huston and Billy Martin.  This episode features the last hurrah for SNL superstars like Anthony Michael Hall, Robert Downey Jr, Joan Cusack, Danitra Vance, and Terry Sweeney who goes out in style by donning the blackest blackface we've seen so far digging into old episodes of SNL.  Along with the racism we also get sketches about second bananas, one legged joggers, drunks, lesbians, and of course...

222: "My Lasagna Wasn't Cheesy Enough" - SNL S09E09 - Father Guido Sarducci / Huey Lewis & The News

June 12, 2020 23:20 - 45.4 MB

We picked Joe Piscopo out of the hat and we watched Bartleby a movie from 2001 starring David Paymer and Crispin Glover.  But then George didn't like that movie so we watched an episode of Saturday Night Live instead.  From Season 9, its an episode hosted by Father Guido Sarducci with musical guest Huey Lewis & The News.  This episode is a stinker.  It includes a call-in vote for the audience to pick their favorite democratic candidate, Julia Louis-Dreyfus pulling cigarettes out of her bra,...

221: “You Fockin’ To Me?” - Little Fockers (2010)

May 21, 2020 00:34 - 16.1 MB

It’s Benny Stills and Bobby Milk back again for Little Fockers.  Watch as a studio tries to squeeze every last dollar out of this franchise.  A lazy sequel featuring contractual obligation appearances from Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand, this movie has boners, gay jokes, Jews and Rob Huebel.  Enjoy! Download Here

220: "Hold The Fart Phone" - Daddy Day Care (2003)

May 13, 2020 23:50 - 26.4 MB

It's Eddie Murphy week on Saturday Night Jive and that means we are finally closing out Hollywood's most beloved trilogy with Daddy Day Care.  We started with Grand-Daddy Day Care then visited Cuba Gooding Jr. and Brian Doyle Murray in Daddy Day Camp.  Now we are watching the Favorite Fart nominated original.  Joined by SNL alums Kevin Nealon, Laura Kightlinger, and the exciting Siobhan Fallon this movie is basically a bunch of farts disguised as a movie.  But we had fun talking about it an...

219: "It Just Doesn't Matter" - SNL Season 6 Episode 12 - Bill Murray / The Man Who Knew Too Little

May 08, 2020 19:52 - 41.4 MB

We were supposed to watch The Man Who Knew Too Little but only half of us were able to fulfill that goal.  Turns out the movie is really boring anyway so we're not missing anything.  Instead, we called an audible and watched an old episode of Saturday Night Live.  This one comes from Season 6, hosted by Bill Murray and it is the last episode to feature the "new 1980 cast".  This is the last hurrah for Charles Rocket, Ann Risley, Gilbert Gottfried and producer Jean Doumanian.  This is arguab...

218: "Jeffrey Jones 2020" - How High (2001)

April 22, 2020 23:57 - 36.7 MB

Happy 4/20!  We watched How High.  Why did we do such a thing?  Well, Tracy Morgan and Garrett Morris show up for about 25 seconds as spokesmen for Porkchops O' Chunky.  That's right, two SNL alums are in this movie for less than a minute and they're on the TV in the background of a scene.  This is a very bad movie where terrible people do terrible things and are rewarded for it.  For the second time in Saturday Night Jive history Jeffrey Jones (a convicted sexual predator) comes off as the...

217: "No Pandemic Gonna Stop Me From My Bucket Of Chicken" - SNL Season 6 Episode 5 - David Carradine / Pirates Of Penzance

April 12, 2020 01:08 - 40.5 MB

We're still social distancing and recording over Skype so pardon the audio quality but no pandemic gonna stop us from talking about an old ass episode of Saturday Night Live.  This is one from the infamously bad season 6 hosted by David Carradine and featuring a musical performance from the cast of The Pirates Of Penzance.  We picked this episode because we pulled Gail Matthius out of the hat but this episode has a drunk host, valley girls, Eddie Murphy, multiple Carl Sagan references, chic...

216: "Social Distancing With Monkey Puns " - Space Chimps (2008)

April 03, 2020 19:44 - 27.8 MB

It's Andy Samberg week on Saturday Night Jive and we are doing our civic duty by practicing social distancing so we recorded an episode over Skype.  Sorry if the sound quality isn't up to our usual standards but if there was anything we could do that was dumber than watching Space Chimps and talking about it for an hour it's watching Space Chimps and talking about it for an hour over Skype.  This animated tale from 2008 stars Andy Samberg, Cheryl Hines and Patrick Warburton as monkeys sent ...

215: "Songs By Smash Mouth" - Zoom (2006)

March 26, 2020 07:00 - 63.9 MB

We watched Mystery Men, we watched Rat Race, we watched Inspector Gadget, all of which featured Smash Mouth or songs by Smash Mouth.  Little did we know that the coincidence of life would lead us to Zoom.  This 2006 kiddie superhero flick features SNL alum Chevy Chase and a soundtrack filled with Smash Mouth.  Tim Allen stars as an over-the-hill superhero training a group of kids to fight an unknown enemy.  It's basically just a bunch of training montages strung together with Tim Allen quip...

214: "A Diaper Full Of Skunk Piss" - Inspector Gadget (1999)

March 19, 2020 07:00 - 66.9 MB

Do you Yahoo?  Well the producers of Inspector Gadget did, or at least they cashed a fat check from the company as they did with Skittles and a slew of other products featured prominently in this movie.  SNL alum Cheri Oteri appears as the mayor in this 1999 CGI crap-fest, so we watched it.  It's got everything a Saturday Night Jive movie should have, terrible editing, callbacks to scenes we didn't see, loads of ADR and sound effects, Dabney Coleman, scenes in the end credits to pad the run...

213: "A Racism Turducken" - SNL Season 10 Episode 16 - Christopher Reeve / Santana

March 12, 2020 07:00 - 63 MB

We picked good old Gary Kroeger and since his film career never took off we watched a classic episode of SNL.  We're back to Season 10 exactly where we left off as this is the episode after the Hulk Hogan and Mr. T episode we covered.  Superman himself Christopher Reeve hosts with musical guest Santana.  Sketches include Jackie Roger Jr.'s $100,000 Jackpot Wad, Superman Auditions, Amish Talk Back, Superman In A Nursing Home, Dumb Soldiers, and a Saturday Night News that includes Jim Belushi...

147: "Like Carl Lewis, In All Ways" - Pumpkin (2002)

March 12, 2020 00:05 - 66.6 MB

Originally from April 7th, 2018. Not since Hot To Trot have we been so divided on a film.  We're on to the SNL 5 timer's club now and our first hat pick is Melissa McCarthy who had a small but pivotal role in the 2002 film where Christina Ricci falls in love with a mentally challenged teenager.  We're talking Pumpkin, a movie that Ben loved and George couldn't stand.  A lot of questions are raised this week including the most important one of all.  Are we retarded and just nobody's telling ...

212: "We Already Talked About The Talking Cow" - Rat Race (2001)

March 05, 2020 08:00 - 69.6 MB

We picked Jon Lovitz as our SNL alum this week so we watched Rat Race from 2001 st arring an all-star cast including frequent guest of the show Cuba Gooding Jr, Whoopi Goldberg, Amy Smart, Breckin Meyer, Rowan Atkinson, John Cleese, Seth Green, the exciting new find Vince Vieluf, Smash Mouth, Hitler's car, Dean Cain, Space Jam's Wayne Knight, Paul Rodriguez and Kathy Bates.  It's a crazy movie that we both enjoyed.  We have still yet to answer the question of whether the cow talked or not ...

211: "Origin Of The Poo In The Jar" - The Ladies Man (2000)

February 27, 2020 08:00 - 62.9 MB

Who ordered a Leon Phelps movie?  What, nobody?  Oh, well they made one anyway.  And we watched it.  It's called The Ladies Man starring SNL alum Tim Meadows reprising his classic recurring character.  Why did he need a backstory?  Why did he need a love interest?  This movie focuses on plot one scene and nonsense the next.  Also featuring SNL alums Will Ferrell, Chris Parnell and Mark McKinney. Download Here 

210: "All The Tits And Dicks Don't Make It Better" - The Dukes Of Hazzard (2005)

February 20, 2020 08:00 - 55.6 MB

It's David Koechner week on Saturday Night Jive and who could forget his iconic role as Cooter in The Dukes Of Hazzard?  Who would ever want this movie?  For fans of the original TV series, we present to you Stifler and Jackass making dick jokes while Jessica Simpson runs around in short shorts.  We cover awkward familial relations, get working on the BJ And The Bear movie, and break down the logic of one of the stranger blooper credits we've seen.  Enjoy!  Download Here

209: "Taylor Swift Has The Clap" - SNL Season 6 Episode 2 - Malcolm McDowell / Captain Beefheart

February 13, 2020 00:08 - 79.9 MB

We have another SNL episode, this one from the dreaded season 6.  Lorne Michaels, Bill Murray, and Peter Aykroyd have all left the show so they got Gilbert Gottfried, Ann Risley and Charles Rocket.  This is the second episode from that season hosted by Malcolm McDowell and featuring Captain Beefheart as the musical guest.  This is a particularly notorious episode for a few reasons.  We get our first sighting of Eddie Murphy (although very briefly) and it makes liberal use of the N-word.  We...

208: "Coincidence Atop Coincidence Atop Mistake" - Oscar (1991)

February 06, 2020 00:45 - 50.6 MB

Just in time for Oscar night, we watched Oscar from 1991 starring Sylvester Stallone and SNL alum Harry Shearer.  What's better than a throwback to 1930's screwball comedies?  Answer, Sylvester Stallone and his terrible comic timing.  A very forgettable film that features a pleasant supporting cast but is completely hampered by poor direction, awkward editing, a plot too complicated for its own good, and most of all Sylvester Stallone.  Enjoy! Download Here

207: "I'm Old, He's Hack" - SNL Season 38 Episode 13 - Justin Bieber

January 16, 2020 12:12 - 65.7 MB

Since we couldn't find a movie starring Tim Robinson we watched an episode from his only season as an SNL cast member.  From Season 38, episode 13 hosted by Justin Bieber.  This episode has 2 good sketches and a lot of crap, including one of George's least favorite recurring sketches of all time.  For anyone who was under the impression that Justin Bieber would be the next Justin Timberlake, or even the next MC Hammer as far as SNL hosts go, you were wrong.  Enjoy!  Swaggy!
