    Uh. He's not here at the moment. Please leave a message after the beep. Beeeeeeeeep.

     

    LOL but seriously, I have no idea where it is or when it will be. It WAS supposed to air on Black Friday, but those lovely schedulers over at Nick like messing with us, so they replaced it with a rerun.  <_<

    (Almost) Every Saturday Night Live Ever - A 19-day marathon on VH1 Classic

    in Culture Shock

    FXX set the record for longest TV marathon ever last year with a week and a half straight of The Simpsons, but VH1 Classic is about to top it. The network is preparing to run episodes ofSaturday Night Live for 19 days straight, starting with the most recent seasons and running back toward its first episodes. That means the network won't make it through SNL's complete history — for better or for worse — and is instead going to be selectively showing its best moments. Even so, VH1 says that this will still make for the longest-ever TV marathon dedicated to a single series.

     

    Clear your schedule for the Justin Timberlake block

     

    The network is also going to be carving out blocks of time that'll be dedicated to specific sketches, hosts, and artists — there's one for Justin Timberlake, another for Wayne's World, and another for Chris Farley, for instance — so those will disrupt the chronological tour. The network is also cheating a little bit: it plans to run three movies starring former SNL members once each during the marathon. Nonetheless, it's still 19 days dedicated to SNL, which is an insane amount of time and really makes you wonder what VH1 Classic normally spends it time on.

     

    The intention of the marathon is to celebrate SNL's 40th anniversary, which is coming up later this year. The marathon will start Wednesday, January 28th and will conclude on Sunday, February 15th, with the final episode airing at 6:30PM that evening. NBC, which is owned by a totally different company than VH1, will air a three-hour anniversary special after the marathon concludes at 8PM. The timing is all totally arbitrary, as SNL's actual anniversary is in October.

     

    As ridiculous as it sounds to dedicate so much time to a single show, VH1 Classic may know what it's doing. When the FXX network ran its 12-day Simpsons marathon, it pulled in 25 million viewers — a figure that it should be very happy with. VH1 Classic is likely hoping for the same results with another classic series. VH1 proper will also air 10 hours of SNL retrospectives on the marathon's final day, and some episodes will be available to stream through VH1's website and on its app during the marathon.

     

    There's a good chance that we'll be seeing more SNL tributes as the year goes on. VH1 and NBC aren't even alone right now: an SNL exhibition featuring "original scripts, set pieces, props, costumes, masks, and interactive elements" is opening up in New York this spring. There's no specific premiere date yet, but you'll definitely be able to get in before the show's actual anniversary rolls around.

    Will you please narrate a day in my life?

    I had read the news today about a lucky man who made the grade. While the news was rather sad, I had to laugh.  :laugh: I saw the photograph. He had blew his mind out in a car. He didn't notice that the lights had all been changed. A crowd of people stood and stared as if they seen that face before. No one was sure if he was from the House of Lords. I saw a film today about The English Army who had won the war. A crowd of people turned away from it, but I had to look since I read the book. I woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head, went downstairs, and drank a cup. Looking up at the clock, I noticed I was late. So I found my coat and grabbed my hat and made the bus in seconds flat. I found my way upstairs and had a smoke. Somebody spoke and I went into a dream. Moments later, I read the news again and it said something about 4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire. Though the holes were rather small, they had to count them all, and they all knew how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall. I would love to turn you on.
