Lazy Sunday


I gave up watching Saturday Night Live many years ago. It's just not funny. Painfully not-funny. But last night, since CSI was running late I flipped over to catch a bit of "Weekend Update" before CSI started, just in case. And because Tina Fey is hot.

Imagine my surprise when I saw "Lazy Sunday", which may be the funniest thing they've done in years. It was Chris Parnell and some new guy going a white-boy rap about getting up on Sunday to go see The Chronicles of Narnia, or as they put it "The Chronic -- WHAT?! -- less of Narnia." Dead serious white guys doing a pretty hilarious rap about movies, cupcakes, cabs and waiting in line that completely sends up the inherent lameness of being middle-class whites in the Big Apple.

Funniest. SNL bit. In. Years.
