SNL: Why using Nintendo Wii is like ... you know

Original "Saturday Night Live" castmember Dan Aykroyd made a surprise guest appearance on the NBC comedy program last night. Aykroyd was in the opening sketch, which took on Republican resistance to Barack Obama's agenda. Now, you'd expect that to be the standout moment, but it was serial SNL host Alec Baldwin who will likely get the most online pickup for the network in a segment mocking spastic Wii gamers. The sketch plays like a sequel to his classic NPR-"Schweddy balls" skit. Both Baldwin and Aykroyd's clips below.

And here's the rather on-the-nose Akroyd skit:

Any pretence of media fairness is out the window !!! The nerve , democrats want a fairness doctorine!!!

[Someone]

I think you may need to go play with your Wii, Albert.

[Unhappy]

Why block Europeans from watching?

[Stupid Americans]

It's NBC.com that blocks anyone from outside the states from watching their videos.

[bob]

Yes, I too want fairness in a comedy program that has been left-leaning for over 30 years.

Do you actually think about the things you write before you write them?

This skit is now par for the course with SNL and their political humor. It was as funny as watching paint dry and totally without merit. Who's attacked the Obama girls?? In the end, I don't think anyone will be laughing.

[John in ROK]

Just youtube it if you can't watch. That's what I had to do.

Get some international cooperation going people!!!

"Uh..you not in the U.S. so you can't watch this..." Lame.

[Peter]

I cant see it in my country? Okey then, I will pirate it instead.

[Heradite]

The second clip wasn't funny at all. The Republicans aren't that united, and we are so much smarter than that.

Only in Hollywood are the Republicans the illogical ones.

[Eric]

BTW, it's spelled "doctrine".

[jon jonsson]

fairness doctorine!!!
Its called,advertisers will pay to have ads on your radio show if you have alot of listners..
If you dont have a good show,you will not have many listners....
Is that fair??

[jon jonsson]

Isnt Baldwin out of the country? I thought he moved 8 yrs ago,,,,

[Dumbass Rightwinger]

Boo hoo, I'm a Republican and the media is so against me. And the world keeps persecuting me for being a Christian! The fact that white oppression is rampant and heteros are being attacked viciously goes completely unreported by the liberal media. And the War on Terror is really a war for FREEDOM! So SCREW ALL YOU LIBERALS! Stupid Saturday Night Live! That was the dumbest skit I've ever seen. The funniest one ever was that Halloween Party where those stupid liberals from the Democrat Party were made to look like the fools, and Hillary Clinton was a witch. How come that's not on this stupid liberal website? Because the liberals are coming out of the woodwork on the internet, too, since they are all on here blogging anyway!
