Chloe Troast Did a Bit on YouTube
I want to not rely on posting movie trailers so much, but I’m also very lazy about digging up other stuff to post and/or write about. I’m a busy/lazy guy! Fortunately, sometimes I just randomly find stuff in my regular web surfing. Like, former SNL player Chloe Troast has done a silly YouTube bit.
I don’t watch SNL, but I definitely watch some of the clips on YouTube on the Sunday after. And Troast had some really funny bits here and there. Shame she was let go. So I’m genuinely happy to see her doing more comedy stuff. Good for her!
Looking forward to more. Could this be the next Between Two Ferns? more power to Chloe Troast!

They’re Making a Saturday Night Live Movie
But not the way they’ve done it in the past. Instead, Hollywood is making a movie about SNL itself, specifically the very early days and the first night of broadcast. They’ve cast all of the original cast members with young people, and the trailer makes this movie — Saturday Night — look pretty darn good.
Will it be weird that most of the original cast are still alive? And will get to watch this movie, if they so choose? I think it will be. But that’s never stopped a good biopic before. It’s time we all got to know the seedy underbelly of the original Saturday Night Live!
Saturday Night comes to theaters on Oct. 11.

Here’s that Sweet Mario Kart Parody Trailer from SNL
I don’t have much to share this Monday, with no new movie trailers or anything of that nature to talk about. So how about we just watch that sweet, gritty Mario Kart parody trailer from Saturday Night Live this past weekend. Does anybody still watch that show live on Saturday nights?
This is fun stuff. Great work by the graphics department at SNL, for sure. And Pedro Pascal kills it as gritty Mario. I’m loving The Last of Us on HBO, like everybody else. And this was a great parody for pull off for Pascal’s guest appearance on SNL. Obviously, this isn’t the first gritty, post-apocalyptic Mario re-imagining on the internet, but it’s fun when some actual work goes into it from a major media outlet.

SNL Brings In Ninja Turtle Parody Masters!
This past weekend, Saturday Night Live ran an animated segment about the Middle-Aged Mutant Ninja Turtles. It was pretty funny. I’m always up for a good TMNT parody.
If you’re like me, a person of refined and excellent taste, then you might notice something strikingly familiar about that segment: it was animated by the same studio that did those classic College Humor Ninja Turtles bits!
Lowbrow Studios has been putting out hilarious video game and pop culture parody videos for years, and their Ninja Turtle segments for College Humor back in the day were amazing!

It’s great to see them getting more renown! According to comments they made on YouTube, they were hired as a third party to do the SNL segment, which is why they weren’t more openly credited. But I can credit their good work all I want!
So spend your quarantine day going down the Lowbrow Studios YouTube rabbit hole and have a good day of it!

This is Some Good Joker Parody by SNL
I don’t watch Saturday Night Live, haven’t for at least a decade. But like most comedy these days, a lot of it shows up on YouTube the next morning. Such is life. Which is where I watched this funny Joker parody starring David Harbour as a gritty Oscar the Grouch!
That’s some good parody! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
