SNL is reviving again, and I am grateful. These two bits made my whole week.

Really!?! – Seth Myers and Amy Poehler
This new segment is fantastic. I was laughing so hard that I almost fell off the couch. Worth staying up to watch.

Hardball – Amy Poehler (as Hillary Clinton) and Darryl Hammond (as Chris Matthews)

This was brilliant. I like the court jester approach, and there are some grains of truth in the exaggerations here. However, as with Hammond’s portrayal of Bill Clinton years ago, I am actually getting attached to the character. Great script, even better delivery. Some people will be upset, but I believe in the freedom of laughter. And I did laugh.

Now, I want to see McCain, Giuliani and Brownback characters! Can anybody do a credible Obama?
