SNL:50 Episode Game Thread

"Mr. Michaels said he feels this is a lot of hullabaloo over nothing. First of all, he said, he’s never been a stickler for contracts when one of his stars has wanted to pursue something else. “We’ve been very, as they say in Hollywood, talent-friendly. So the idea that the whole culture of the place is changing is just idiotic,” he said."

I already posted several examples of new SNL cast members who acted.

Your idiotic retort appears to be "BUT BUT BUT THEY WERENT MAJOR ROLES!"

We've already covered that multiple times. He was talking about pre-1999 contract. He had no example to support the years following the 1999 contract yet because it was still 1999. DERRRRRRRR

You posted 4 cast members who signed 1999 contracts. Your first example was Set Meyers who told you he couldn't break through Hollywood stardom like his predecessors because he had very little acting talent. I provided his quote to you.
Slapped you down there.

Your next example was Tina Fey who had a pre-1999 contract. Slapped you down again.

You gave two other examples of people I'd never even heard of. They're not Hollywood stars the likes of the the list I gave you of pre-1999 SNL cast who became Hollywood stars with leading roles.
I did look those other two up and all I saw were minor roles (i.e. extras). A few lines here a few scenes there.

While under SNL contract they were limited to doing Paramount Pictures movies (for $75,000) and NBC sitcoms where they could be tied up for 12 years.

The new 1999 contract crop were low quality actors, actresses, and writers. That's why they took the SNL contracts. It was that or spend the rest of their fucking lives being waiters/waitresses.

I simply stated in post #7 that SNL's quality of actors, actresses, and writers turned to shit after the 1999 contract.

mjf immediately tried humping my leg so I slapped the mangy mutt down with facts.

I posted an article from 1999 that supported the reason why SNL was getting low quality talent. Real talent wouldn't enter into that contract. Their agents advised them not to because they would limit their career potential.

I also posted proof of the SNL ratings dive after 1999 that supports SNL's 1999 new hire contract brought in low quality talent.

I've supported everything I've said to include Seth Meyers admitting he had very little acting talent compared to his pre-1999 predecessors.
 
i have this recorded, hope it's not a clip show.

shit, i'll do a non live action, always hated this bit (the first one after the monologue with will ferrell. should be good times judging by the start... i feel there weren't any skits that ever needed to be recurring. if a skit became recurring it was just laziness.

with exceptions, Church Lady was similar to the weeknight sketch, so it works for me in those instances. if the joke is a variety show where we bring out 3 attractive ladies and now here's their weird sister, no, that's a one off.
 
on to sketch 2, black jeopardy (another recurring sketch, but one that is more about the contestants, so not dry), Eddie doing Tracy Jordan next to Tracy Morgan... looks promising. (I get they're going to focus on recurring stuff and things that can include multiple cast members to fit so much in, I also go back to my recording is 4 hours long)

And that was the only saving grace of it. I guess they're going to for south park memberries.

Tina Fey did not join as a cast member until 2000. Try again.
 
That's not a link to support your made up bullshit that 'NBC chose not to enforce the contract', cunt.

You claimed NBC blocked them from being in non-Paramount movies.

I listed non-Paramount movies, so obviously the contract was not enforced.

You've been bitchslapped so many times and you keep coming back for more.

Fun entertainment. Almost as funny as when you claimed networks don't pay the teams directly for OOC neutral site games, and that it all gets shared in the conference.
 
wait, there's some conspiracy shit in this thread for some reason? what a world. it was a mid show for a show that's been on forever.
 
Prove that Tina Fey who was hired in 1997 and had played in skits prior to 1999 fell under the 1999 'new hire' contract.

You can't and you're making that up like you make everything else up.
Lol @ thinking non-cast members are given cast member contracts
