Fred Armisen is married to Elizabeth Moss on Mad Men. That’s all I got.

I tried to find the best skit from the January Jones episode of SNL. I really did. I like her on Mad Men and thought for sure it would be easy to “pick out the funny” from the rest of the episode but I just couldn’t do it. Not that it was an awful episode, just that it didn’t have anything memorable that would stir up a chuckle on repeat viewings (see “Greg is not an alien“)

So here’s the only thing I could come up with. The Monologue. Overall it’s fairly “meh” but toward the end, listen for a cute inside joke that made me laugh as a Mad Men fan. Fred Armisen just married Elizabeth Moss on Mad Men, hence his favoring “Peggy” over “Betty”. Hilarious I tell ya. :)

Dogs eat garbage. It’s funny because it’s true!

“Mostly Garabage” is one of the better SNL commercials in recent memory. And with the “current economic conditions”, it really hits home. Don’t get me wrong, I like dogs, but this definitely falls into the “Funny because it’s true” category. The ending, when Jason Sudeikis says “…because he’s a dog”, reminded me of one of my all time favorite SNL commercial quotes from Will Ferrell’s classic “Dissing Your Dog”:

Oh right Margaret, you wanted Prime Rib. Here’s the deal. The Palm wasn’t taking reservations and we don’t want to try Morton’s because I understand they have a new chef. So for now, let’s just go with the Alpo, ok. I know it’s not your first choice, but keep in mind….[whispers]YOU’RE A F*%$ING DOG!!!
