Megan Fox was host on Saturday Night Live

Sunday, September 27, 2009

Is the f-word you get dropped on Saturday Night Live tonight? It certainly sounded like that. At about 12:42 Eastern Time during the draft, called "Biker Chick Chat," a new cast member Jenny Slate seemed to say the word got SNL cast member Charles Rocket difficulties in 1981.

The draft also host Megan Fox and Kristen Wiig as the "Biker Chicks" with Slate. All were peppering their mock-tough-talk with "Frickin '", Slate, but seemed to say, "I f-in' I love you for that," instead.

Seth Meyers appeared on stage hugging Slate Fox closed the show by adding the third and final U2 song.

Here is the hope of any punishment for the attachment of a new eligibility cast what was clearly a slip of the tongue.

Whether by her choice or the show’s, Fox was used primarily as — well, as a body. She matched Wiig’s Southern accent in the early flight-attendant sketch, and did some nice acting opposite Will Forte in a well-written Digital Short that was primarily a showcase for Forte’s beautifully calibrated sensitive-nerd SWAT team leader. But in playing a beautiful Russian bride, a cynical chat-line spokesmodel, and a curvy stooge for Kenan Thompson’s terrific Grady-Wilson-teaches-you-sexual-positions commercial, Fox was fine, but she didn’t really stretch her comedy muscles.



New cast members Jenny Slate and Nasim Pedrad didn’t appear much, although Slate may get some unwanted attention for apparently using the f-word by accident during a sketch called “Biker Chick Chat.” Please don’t punish Slate — it was clearly an accident.

Wiig, by contrast, was over-worked, popping up all over to little effect, reprising her “Judy Grimes” character, who says, “Just kidding!” a lot, and in an unfortunately long final sketch with a long title: “Your Mom Talks To Megan Fox While You’re Getting Ready.”



Kenan Thompson was really funny as the Sanford and Son character Grady in the Burnin’ Up The Bedsheets DVD sketch mentioned above, and he almost singlehandedly saved a rather drab “Weekend Update” segment with a fresh version of his recurring character Jean K. Jean (”Bon to the jour, Seth!”). Also on the plus-side, Forte (sporting a nice just-joined-the-armed-forces-style haircut) and Bill Hader managed to wring laughs from even weak sketches on the strength of their intonation and delivery.
