Let’s be honest. Actresses have gone downhill since Kathy Ireland retired.

Mexico by James Michener.

Finished it last night.

The character Leon Ledesma reminded me a lot of one Jorge Farrah.

Andy Samberg on this week’s Fly. Great episode.

He actually sounds like he’d be fantastically cool to just hang with.

Samberg was fun, and damn right Lonely Island revolutionized the show with live digital shorts.

This week’s Fly has Jay Leno. I’ll admit that the whole thing with Letterman and The Tonight Show had soured me on him a great deal, but he was a really good guest. Don’t quite understand why they had him on since he only hosted SNL once but it was an enjoyable episode.

I will never listen to Jay Leno
Why not? I’m no fan of his at all either but it was actually ok

Average episode; the unscripted break in Update was the best moment to me.

Traffic jam was good. "I don't like that you used 2 hands" :haha:

The Update gag was great.

Nice switcharoo in the open, one of “Trump”’s better monologues.

Check out the replies.

I'm late to this and I don't know what I'm even doing in this thread, but I have a question - are they using canned laughter here? I find it very hard to believe that an audience full of real people would laugh out loud at any of this.

James fuckin with Mikey Day in the cold open was hilarious.

Update was funny.

Sally sketch was funny just because of Yang and Fineman breaking while Shannon wedgied herself.

That is all.
