Saturday Night Live: Dwayne Johnson/Ray LaMontagne - VIDEOS
by Annie Wu, posted Mar 8th 2009 12:02PM

(S34E18) When I heard The Rock -- I mean, Dwayne Johnson -- was hosting again, the first image that popped into my mind was him in that Mr. Peepers sketch with Chris Kattan back in the day. I believe red overalls, apples, and aggressive humping was involved. Though Mr. Johnson traded in his red overalls for a sequined black halter top in this episode, he still did incredibly well. I had forgotten: Those aren't muscles; the guy has had charisma surgically inserted into his upper body over the past decade for easy access. Anyone else would have looked like an idiot trying to pull off The Rock Obama. Check out some video highlights and see what I mean.

Seth Meyers gets Weekend Update job
by Joel Keller, posted Sep 21st 2006 8:42PM
The ascension of Seth Meyers continues. Not only does he continue in his role as co-head writer of Saturday Night Live (and with Tina Fey's departure, his influence on the writing and sketch selection will likely be much greater), but he has also been named to the co-anchor spot of "Weekend Update," alongside Amy Poehler.According to this article, Meyers was chosen for his writing skills and his chemistry with Poehler in the "WU" auditions. Like Fey before him, Meyers will rarely be seen outside of "WU," though I'm sure he and Poehler will keep doing "The Needlers," one of the few funny recurring sketches from last year.
Buh-bye, Hammond and Sanz: readers pick who SNL should boot
by Joel Keller, posted Dec 27th 2005 7:01PM
A little over a week ago, we gave you folks an opportunity
to select the Saturday Night
Live cast members that you thought might be leaving at the end of this season, based on a remark Lorne Michaels
gave to The New York Times. We let you choose more than one person, since it looks like more than one person
is going to leave.So, who did you think was going to go? Well, there's no surprise here: Darrell Hammond and Horatio Sanz received the most votes, with the still-on-maternity-leave Maya Rudolph coming in third. It makes sense; Hammond's been on the show for eons and is basically down to doing impressions of Chris Matthews and Donald Trump, and Sanz is... well, let's just say he's not the most popular member of the cast. The surprise was the lack of votes for Seth Myers, even though his name has been coming up quite a bit in the rumors surrounding Michaels' pronouncement.
Full poll results are after the jump.
