Talk:Saturday Night Live season 35

Departures
I'm pretty sure multiple sources have mentioned Hammond's leaving...and since Wiig has appeared in Weekend Update promotional material, is it safe to add her in to the returned category?Purplebackpack89 (talk) 05:10, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
 * What sources? And don't say TV.com because that's very unreliable since that can be edited by anybody. - Jasonbres (talk) 01:36, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Uh, for Wiig, the 2009-10 season preview at hulu.com? Purplebackpack89 (talk) 02:23, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
 * What about Hammond? And again, don't use TV.com. - Jasonbres (talk) 14:33, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it doesn't exactly matter now...he's not listed under departures anymore. Say, can IMDB be edited by unreliable peeps as well? Purplebackpack89 (talk) 03:58, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
 * In this article from People, it says that Bill will be the only cast member with a child in the upcoming season. That would exclude Darrell, who already has two. Hippieanger (talk) 10:07, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Jenny Slate slips up and says "fuck" on her first show
Previous editor was a bit prissy (mentioned only "an expletive") and exhibits a poor grasp of the show's history. The "Charles Rocket incident" was thought to be deliberate on Rocket's part. Jenny Slate's accidental utterance of "fuckin'" in "Biker Chick Chat" shares the same bit of vocabulary but the similarities end there. It's more like the Norm Macdonald incident (1997-APR-12) and even more like the Paul Shaffer incident (15-MAR-1980), wherein the sketch performed contained numerous uses of the nonce word "fluck". (Coincidentally, Bono, part of the musical guest ensemble on the same episode, let slip a "fuckin'" at the 2003 Golden Globes ceremony, which was transmitted live in some markets. Neither he nor the broadcaster were penalized.)


 * as for the ramifications of this incindent, it is likely that nothing too big will come of it, Slate was seen during the ending being teased by head writer Seth Myers, obvious that the problem had been addressed, and dealt with. (talk)

U.S. West Coast viewers, please report what alteration (if any) was made to your version of the broadcast. SNL's SOP for these types of situations is to air the dress rehearsal version. Branden (talk) 06:56, 27 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Whoa, whoa, whoa. Some user (70.54.1.223) edited my comments!  Most uncool.   Fixed. Branden (talk) 20:17, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Brian Austin Green played by Jason Sudekis
I'm watching the episode right now and that is clearly NOT Sudekis. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.138.53.101 (talk) 18:32, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Don Pardo
At what point do we decide that Don Pardo is officially "back"? It's pretty apparent that they aren't going to release a statement. 3 episodes? 4? 72.78.58.237 (talk) 19:56, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Lady GaGa says "shit"
Uh, why isn't this mentioned? I think it's noteworthy when someone says a curse like "shit" or "fuck" on the show. Why was it removed? --Lsnicket (talk) 04:58, 18 October 2009 (UTC)


 * It happens so often, it barely merits a mention. Take last week's episode for example. The digital short with Thompson as Reba featured a "fuck" by Samberg that got past censors. If we start mentioning it here, then by all rights we should document all its past utterances in previous seasons. I don't know about you, but there's way too much work to be done already before we can even start considering something like that. Mainly.generic (talk) 07:38, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

What show are you watching? You make it sound like they cuss every episode, when they don't. And I don't think Lsnicket was talking about EVERY time they curse, just the obvious ones. Jenny Slate saying "fuck", Gaga singing "shit", these are obvious. When somebody says something under their breath, and you can bairly hear it, don't mention it. When someone yells "FUCK", that's noteworthy. As for "Best of Both Worlds," I didn't hear an unbleeped "fuck". With all due respect, BrianGriffin-FG (talk) 22:56, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

December 5-19 shows
A twitter page is not a source, is it? I will not delete the information, I feel someone who is certain about the rules should do that, but I guess it's merely rumored SNL talk that hasn't got any background. Off-the-air (talk) 21:26, 17 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Personally, being that it's hard to confirm or deny the identity of Twitter authors, then I think it's best to avoid it as a source. That said, I found the NBC press release, and have updated the schedule (but fuck, it wasn't exactly easy. NBC has a god awful flash interface that makes linking to the source next to impossible). Mainly.generic (talk) 07:40, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Anchor Tags
When adding new episodes to the schedule, please update the relevant anchor tags. See the main Saturday Night Live talk page for more details. Mainly.generic (talk) 07:45, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Vandalism
Looks like we're getting hit pretty well once again from vandals, not just here, but also on other related SNL pages, notably the List of Saturday Night Live International Broadcasters. While the edits on the other page were clearly just crap, here it seems like it's either fans of potential performers slotting information in. Maybe they heard rumors? Who cares, if there's no citation, it's getting thrown out.

Removing the majority of the show notes
Earlier today a major edit was made, where all show notes were removed from the page. It was not malicious, and raises a point that deserves discussion. I'm putting a post on the Talk:Saturday Night Live page, so that we can come to an acceptable consensus. Mainly.generic (talk) 03:22, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Leave the notes, but do it within reason. We don't need a statement every time a cast member does not appear in an episode. We don't need a comment about every flubbed line unless it's noteworthy (such as "fucking" instead of "frickin"). We don't need to list each sketch in which every host or musical guest appears. We don't need to list the cameos for people who regularly appear on the show, such as Lorne Michaels. Some editors have tried to make a play-by-play description of each episode. The section is for noteworthy comments, not a reproduction of the script. Edit with some common sense. 71.77.17.46 (talk) 19:50, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

On turning prose into lists
Wikipedia is tagged all over with articles that just contain lists that need to be turned into readable prose, so if it's already in that form, don't make regressive edits and turn the latter into the former. Alternatively, edit the sentence that you actually have a problem with instead of messing with multiple paragraphs. -- C. A. Russell ( talk ) 01:45, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Mistake?
April 17

This is the fifth episode this season not to feature any cameo appearances.

Pretty sure justin timberlake was in the monolouge as the DIAB guy 75.68.52.240 (talk) 23:14, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

HE IS! 216.204.206.155 (talk) 12:54, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Removed 'Listings' section
I have begun removing the "Listings" sections from SNL Seasons articles because they consistently fail WP:NOTDIR policy concerns. You can find the main discussion here: Talk:List of Saturday Night Live episodes. -- Wikipedical (talk) 00:40, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
