14 March Saturday Night Live

I give Saturday Night Live's 14 March 2009 edition a middle to slight Thumbs Up.

Opening was okay with Tracy Morgan playing a Tracy-Morgan-like character. I was surprised that the audience didn't pop when they showed John Cena, but then they also didn't pop for Tina Fey. Morgan brought back his (only?) 2 characters Brian Fellows and Astronaut Jones. I always liked Fellows and at least Jones skit was short.

Weekend Update was about the same, slight Thumbs Up.

Positives were The View (all five played their characters extremely well and it wasn't too long), Scared Straight (especially Bill Hader almost laughing however I could tell Morgan was reading cue cards), and the Digital Short. Everything else was okay.

As much as I loved it when they first did it, they need to stop showing the Edible Pampers commercial until season end. I fast-forwarded past it for the first time.
 
As I mentioned in the SNL thread that I already started as the show ended last night :p ;D , the entire cast of 30 Rock has now hosted SNL this season.

And, yes, Kelly Clarkson was the highlight of the whole show.

I either fast-forward and don't pay too much attention to the music guests, except for the Jonas Brothers. I always get lost in Kevin's eyes...

I guess my DVR didn't get the SNL when Grizz & Dot Com hosted! ;D

Is the metro-looking one with straight hair adopted? He cannot possibly be from the same biological family.

As a 41-year-old male expert in all things Jonas, all brothers are biologically connected. However, there is an urban legend that their father traveled a lot during that period and their mom got lonely... :p

Middle kid straightened his hair. I saw pictures with the older one also with straight hair.

I got the "lost in his eyes" saying from a Malcolm in the Middle episode, similarly repeated by Homer Simpson. I've never heard a Jo Bros song until they were on SNL, and I wasn't even listening then. I liked their 2 skits with Alec Baldwin and Digital Short.
