Taylor Swift on SNL: Twilight, Glenn Beck, and No Kanye (VIDEO)
Fox News – Election Coverage (feat. Sudeikis as Glenn Beck)
Of course I like this sketch spoofing Fox News’ election coverage — it agrees with me. Nice Juan Williams from Kenan Thompson (mustache!), great Greta Van Susteren from Kristen Wiig, funny Karl Rove from Bobby Moynihan, and a shout-out to Joe Trippi, even if it’s clear that the SNL makeup people had no clue what he looked like. Best line in the whole thing: “Let’s not forget that it was under HIS watch that we lost the King of Pop.” A nit: Bill Hader as Shep Smith was way too smugly partisan, with shades of Keith Morrison. But on the flip side, I think Jason Sudeikis may need to get an Emmy for his impression of Glenn Beck. Outstanding.
Taylor Swift: The Monologue Song
Taylor Swift very sweetly sings about all the people she’s not going to sing about during her monologue — presumably like Joe Jonas and Taylor Lautner. She will, however, mention one bad boy: “We have a great show – Kanye West is not here!” Taylor Swift FTW.
The View – Taylor Swift as Kate Gosselin
This recurring sketch never seems to gel for me, but Swift’s Gosselin was great, as was Andy Samberg‘s Nicholas Cage. Barbara Walters looks great for her age, but again, SNL’s normally crack makeup team needs to do a lil’ something here for verisimilitude.
