SNL - 3/13/10 - Jude Law

& Pearl Jam, who played "Just Breathe" & "Unthought Known". This is one of those rare shows where I watched the musical guest multiple times. The highlight of the actual show was Jerry Seinfeld's surprise appearance on Weekend Update, showing his perfect comic timing.
It's not really Jude Law's fault. The writing was pretty awful with one-joke skits about Toyota's acceleration problems, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and The Twilight Zone. There was an unfair obsession with Law's Alfie remake. Bad repeat skits included "Password" game show and Fred Armisen's annoying court typist. Law auditioning for Hamlet was watchable because of Bill Hader's Al Pacino impersonation. Law appeared to be promoting his upcoming movie, Repo Men, which has Law and Forest Whitaker repossessing human organs. Hamlet on Broadway, followed by Repo Men. That's pretty good whiplash diversity. Who's Whitaker's agent?

Not funny last night. Seinfeld was good, but I'm still mad about the horrifying Marriage Ref. Bride and I love the "Kickspit Underground Concert" advertisement. PJ rules - they just announced a North American tour that only comes as close as Kansas City - http://pearljam.com/news/announcement
