Right from Darrell-as-Connery’s entrance, I love him immediately halting the proceedings and being very suspicious of what this show is about, and questioning so many things about the show. A rare non-Celebrity Jeopardy appearance from Darrell’s Sean Connery. Jason’s kinda stumbly with his lines early on in this. Speaking of Chris, after his aforementioned intro at the beginning of this sketch, I like the subsequent theme song sung by him in the opening title sequence. Some of you reading this probably don’t want to imagine Phil Hartman being in a sketch like this.) Chris’ reliable, Phil Hartman-esque deadpan is perfect here. I absolutely love the opening shot of this sketch, with Chris, dressed like a rich snob (complete with a smoking pipe, a great little detail), saying into the camera with a very deadpan voice and face “And now, it’s time for Monkeys Throwing Poop At Celebrities.” I can’t think of a more perfect way to open a sketch that has such an iffy and off-putting subject matter.

At the risk of getting stones thrown at me (or, more fittingly, poop thrown at me), as I go through the sketch, I will proceed to argue all the reasons why I’ve always felt this is actually a good sketch. This sketch seems to have a negative reputation among a lot of (or is it just some?) hardcore online SNL fans, and seems to be considered a nadir of this season.

Okay, we definitely need to discuss this sketch. Seth looked like he was standing in front of some cheap projector that was showing his gay clone. Also, they didn’t even try to make Seth’s gay clone look like he was realistically standing behind him, unlike how they made everybody else realistically look like they were interacting with their opposite-gender clone. Oh, and because this is fucking season 30, we have to end this commercial with a token gay joke, with the lame he-harmony gag with Seth. Will Forte in drag is a pretty horrifying sight. I find this comedic premise weak, and basically just a cheap excuse to throw everybody into drag. matches narcissists with their opposite-sex alter egos Amy’s pretty funny throughout this monologue. Jason, on Arrested Development being up against Extreme Makeover: Home Edition: “Who’s gonna watch us when they can watch a hot shirtless guy build a skate ramp for a kid with no bones?” Odd how they would cut a Will Arnett cameo from the live show. The mentions of Jason Bateman’s Arrested Development co-star Will Arnett being Amy’s husband reminds me that Arnett actually made a cameo in a dress rehearsal sketch from this episode (an award show sketch, I think), but it got cut from the live show. Host & AMP plug Arrested Development so that it won’t be cancelled Four minutes into this sketch, and all I’ve been seeing is a whole bunch of tepid, unfunny dialogue, a whole bunch of bad Asian accents, and, of course, Horatio both hamming and screaming it up. (*groan*) Looks like I’m in for a typical Horatio Sanz ham-fest and shout-fest. Seth reprises his Brian Williams impression for the first time since Seth was only in his fourth episode on SNL.
