OTR's Best and Worst of 2008

OTR's Best and Worst of 2008

Now that the year is coming to a close, it’s time to look back at all the things we loved and hated about 2008.

 

Best: The Election. This year’s historical election brought us the first black president and the first female vice presidential candidate. Between the history that was made and the hilarious SNL sketches that ensued (not to mention t...

Did SNL Go Too Far In Mocking New York Governor's Blindness

Did SNL Go Too Far In Mocking New York Governor's Blindness

Saturday Night Live is not one to shy away from controversy, but should some things be off limits? Maybe someone's disability perhaps? SNL certainly doesn't agree.

 

Today everyone's asking, "Did SNL go too far when they poked fun at New York Governor Paterson's blindness?" Check out Saturday's Weekend Update:

SNL Rips on that White Rastafarian Kid You Hate on Campus

You all know and hate this kid on campus. Leave it to Andy Samberg to make him look like the jackass he is.

The Twelve Hottest SNL Cast Members Ever

The Twelve Hottest SNL Cast Members Ever

Now that Amy Poehler and Tina Fey have left Saturday Night Live for good, they've quickly filled the cast holes with two new ladies, Abby Elliot and Michaela Watkins, and they're both pretty hot (as seen above). So that got us thinking, in its 30+ year history, who have been the hottest funny girls to come across the show? We've ranked them belo...

UVA Alum Tina Fey Gives Up Sarah Palin Impression, SNL Cries Uncontrollably

UVA Alum Tina Fey Gives Up Sarah Palin Impression, SNL Cries Uncontrollably

Hold on everyone...There is one tragedy among this joyful Obama win. And that is the demise of Tina Fey’s impressin of Sarah Palin.
 

Her painfully accurate impersonation brought viewers back to SNL and a reason to laugh a ridiculous candidate. Unfortuantely, now that the election is over and Sarah Palin is (hopefully) no longer in the national ...

Will Ferrell Joins Tina Fey on SNL for Bush Endorsement Skit

Will Ferrell Joins Tina Fey on SNL for Bush Endorsement Skit

These “Thursday Night Live” events have been rather hit or miss, but I’ll be damned if Will Ferrell returning to SNL wasn’t the greatest thing I’ve seen in sometime. We’ve all been raving over Tina Fey’s Palin, but we often forget how perfect Ferrell’s Bush was.


Watch the clip, which might be the best SNL sketch of the season, right up there wi...

The Real Sarah Palin Stops by SNL, Meets Tina Fey, Destroys Space-Time Continuum

The Real Sarah Palin Stops by SNL, Meets Tina Fey, Destroys Space-Time Continuum

The real Sarah Palin finally appeared on SNL this past weekend for the opening sketch, and I have to say, it was pretty good. Granted, nothing she really said or did was particularly funny, but just the fact that she was in the same room with her doppelganger Tina Fey was worth her trip out. Also, Alec Baldwin tearing her to shreds while she sta...

The Ten Funniest ACC Alumni

Some ACC alumni are hot, but others are just plain hilarious.  Here are the 10 funniest grads of the ACC:

 

1. Tina Fey:  This University of Virginia alum, who graduated in '92 with a Drama BA, can see Russia from her house!

Tina Fey is Back for the Palin-Biden SNL Vice Presidential Debate

Tina Fey is Back for the Palin-Biden SNL Vice Presidential Debate

I'm not sure you can beat the SNL couric interview, but this is pretty damn good as well. What's-his-name playing Joe Biden is genius as well, impossible as it is to share a stage with Tina Fey's Palin. I hope SNL is enjoying this five-week lead up to the electoin, because once Obama wins, the funny is going to drop off significantly.

Enjoy th...

Tina Fey as Palin on Couric is Not That Much Different Than Reality

Tina Fey as Palin on Couric is Not That Much Different Than Reality

This past weekend UVA grad Tina Fey returned to Saturday Night Live for the second time in three weeks to mercilessly lampoon Sarah Palin. The thing about the faux-interview is, parts of it are not all that much different than her actual disasterous interview with Katie Couric. See below:

 

SNL:
