Saturday Night Live Jim Carrey / Iggy Azalea Episode Discussion

learned:

* Helvis: thankfully, this wasn't a bad omen of what was to come. i've never liked pecan pie to begin with, but i've never wanted pecan pie less.

* Carrey reunion: y'know what SNL should have done this week? actually return to the glory days of In Living Color, make this week's sketches of a caliber of that show: good writing, deep writing, meaningful sociopolitical skits, stuff Jim could shine in, i'd settle for a new lasting Jim character (the secret billionaire with the name mind games came closest). for one week, Show, don't be SNL, be In Living Color...

* Iggy Azalea: has a nice butt. butt seriously, the second song had a nice butt, i mean beat. now was she lip-synching? no, no, she was Ig-synching, or lip-Igging, that's what it's called in the industry.

* Sia: ever since the airing, i haven't gotten "Chandelier" out of my head, i sing it badly everywhere: in the shower, in the bath, in the oatmeal bath. when she soars into those high notes, it's chilling. oh, and Jim effectively deflated the whole controversy with the child dancer in the video being pregnant with his turn as a pregnant man.

* okay, so maybe i could enjoy a pecan pie after masturbating and going to an Applebee's with the rest of the dullards...or masturbating with the rest of the dullards at Applebee's...or something.

* did you see the promos for this show? they were hilarious. most of the SNL promos end up being funnier than anything that's in the show. they should air the promos during the show, hell, air them instead of the cold open. also, did you see this week's "Kids" horror piece? it was a fantastic fable about the pressures on a young man contemplating starting a family. for fuck sake why is this not on the show? why is the quality stuff not on the actual show? now that's scary.
